Inside
Viewpoint
- ROTC violates Catholic principles (Aaron Kreider Think, Question, Resist)
Let us take a conservative, but critical view of ROTC's presence on campus. The correct question is whether Notre Dame's ROTC program meets the minimalist standards of Catholic "Just War Theory" (we are not applying the more strict principles of pacifism that are also supported by the Church, though I encourage readers to decide for themselves whether pacifism might not be more Christ-like).
- Quote of the Day (Mahatma Ghandi Nobel paece prize winner)
"I believe in the doctrine of non-violence as a weapon of the weak. I believe in the doctrine of non-violence as a weapon of the strongest. I believe that a man is the strongest soldier for daring to die unarmed."
- Presenting ROTC perspectives fairly (Letter to the Editor )
I want to thank Pax Christi for hosting the Tuesday discussion: "A Way to Peace, or Peace is the Way? Catholic Perspectives on ROTC." It was a great way to hear a lot of important issues related to being in the military that people might not think about otherwise. Unlike past presentations on the issue, this presented differing perspectives more fairly.
- Deserving student support (Letter to the Editor )
Saint Mary's College is renowned as an example of what college pride should be throughout the neighboring campuses and community. I was embarrassed to see our wonderful reputation tarnished this weekend when I attended the Belles volleyball game against Hope College. I was shocked to find the stands of our Angela Athletic Facility virtually empty. There were only eight SMC students and a handful of parents on hand. Why did the visiting team have more support than our Belles?
- Defining abortion's biological realities (Joshua Kirley Swift's Confederate)
I learned at a young age to never talk about abortion or politics. I also learned to never drink liquor after beer. But no matter how many times I regret it later, breaking either rule always seems like a good idea at the time.
