University employees deserve our appreciation
Letter to the Editor


   I know we all have our gripes and complaints about this university, but I think, when it comes right down to it, a lot of us (admit it) LOVE Notre Dame. I, for one, am happy to be here, and I think others feel the same way.

Even though the administration does not always make us happy, our professors don't always give us the grades we want and this is no Utopian University, we should have some appreciation for the hard work and time that people put in to making Notre Dame work.

From the grounds crew and the housekeepers to the officers of the University, people care about Notre Dame and make an effort to do their best in order to make it a great place for us students.

As the end of the semester approaches — even in the midst of stress — we can all take the time to communicate our appreciation for the people dedicated to this place. Saying the two words "thank you" takes less than a second, but lasts much longer in the minds of those to whom you say it.
