Princeton Plan (2)

Last Friday the Notre Dame Student Body, with a convincing finality, called a moratorium to its participation in the national democratic process. The proportions of the vote were mind-bending. At least, it bent the minds of those who still held the hope that the students of this University didn’t sell the political birthright they won last May for a mess of Thanksgiving turkey. But that part, at least, is over. There are all sorts of things on which we could blame the landslide: Dave Krashna, for procrastinating on his endorsement; the Scholastic, for weakening their endorsement, WSND, for their opposition; the Academic Council for making the terms of the agreement so harsh and dissonant that it was inpalatable tc the weak, but the issue would ‘Now that is lifelike!” be skirted if we passed the blame to small individual entities. We are the guilty party. Let it be noted here that we, the Student Body of the University of Notre Dame, rejected our first chance ever to effect American politics as free men. We rejected it overwhelmingly, and with unmistakable clarity. And in rejecting Reflections it, we confessed our willingness to take the consequences of the campaigns and elections over the next four years of our life. on Fr.

Upgrading can be seen in such areas as pass/fail, the Madeleva Scholars programs, and the participation by St. Mary’s in the programs abroad as well as the St. Mary’s Campus in Rome. Progress under Msgr. McGrath was made in both social and academic areas. “ He more or less set up a new idea of the college community.
