Inside
- SMC pride (Sarah Nestor Saint Mary's News Editor)
It began in 1843, when four Sisters of the Holy Cross Order came from Le Mans, France, with the dream to open a college in northern Indiana. One year later, in 1844, the sisters opened their first school and Saint Mary's College was born. And 158 years later, the Sisters of the Holy Cross are still here, lending support to Saint Mary's, as the College has educated thousands of women over the years.
Viewpoint
- Time for talk is over Undistinguished Alumnus (Mike Marchand )
Let's say you are the President, and the date is July 1, 2001. And let's say that America's intelligence systems (as they failed to do in reality) put together all the pieces and stated that a terrorist attack from a foreign group, Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, would strike U.S. soil sometime in the next three months and kill thousands of Americans. Do you:

Last night I saw one of my best friends in the Peace Corps give a concert. In his former life he was an acting major and writer who aspired to be in pictures in People Magazine and to create art his audience could understand. Now he lives in the village 45 minutes away from me.
- Joint committee examines honor code controversy (Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C. Associate Provost and Vice President)

Undergraduate students will soon receive, if they have not already, an email explaining in greater detail some of the more significant revisions of the honor code. The revision of the honor code and the attention it has been given will, we hope, heighten awareness of issues of academic integrity throughout the University.

Scene
- Getting freaky Scene takes a look at Notre Dame's homegrown, comedy band, The Kinky Boot Beasts (By C. SPENCER BEGGS Scene Editor)
Friday night: The band takes the stage casting aside empty bottles of Boone's Farm wine. They gear up their instruments and proceed to rock the garage to the sounds of Dave Matthews band. Of course, the version of "The Space Between" the group performs sounds more like Dave Matthews playing at Ozzfest after dropping an entire sheet of acid and snorting a couple king sized pixie sticks. The band: The Kinky Boot Beasts, the self-proclaimed class clowns of the campus music scene.
