For the past 10 years, the graduating seniors have honored a member of the Notre Dame faculty as the Senior Class Fellow, an award given at the Senior Mass held at the Grotto during Senior Week. “The Senior Class Fellow is an award designed for any faculty, staff or administra­ tion member that has made a significant con­ tribution to the class,” explain senior class president Beth Nolan. According to Nolan, the senior fellow origi­ nated in the early 1980’s, but the award was perceived as a sort of joke that no faculty member wanted to receive. But over the past 10 years, the award has been given to a person on the faculty that has made a serious contribution to the class. Father Mark Poorman, associate professor of theology, was the Senior Class Fellow last year. “I do not know how I was nominated,” he stated, “but I was extremely pleased and hon­ ored to be chosen by the class as a fellow.” Poorman was notified by last year’s senior class president of his achievement prior to the For 25 years, Father George Wiskirchen has been leading Notre senior visit to the Grotto. “I spoke at the last Mass at the Grotto,” Dame’s jazz ensemble through swing and funk, rhythm and blues Poorman remembered. “The senior class pres­ ident spoke, and then I was given a few By LAURA PETELLE as possible. moments of acceptance and thanks to the Assistant News Editor A fter his ordination as a Holy class.” Cross priest in 1955, Wiskirchen Nolan, who attended the Senior Mass last Most directors at this weekend’s became a teacher at Notre Dame year, said that Poorman met many seniors Collegiate Jazz Festival will be High School in Niles, 111.

By KRISTI KLITSCH Scene Editor

Until two years ago, the Elco Performing Arts Center was a deteriorating structure on Elkhart’s main street. The Elco opened its doors on Nov. 24, 1924 as the Lerner Theater, named after Harry E. Lerner, a local businessman who funded the construction. The Lerner Theater entertained audiences with vaudeville acts and silent films. The original theater had 2,200 seats, signifi­ cantly larger than other theaters built during that time. It was designed by K.M. Vitzham of Chicago and the interior was a combination of cream and blue with gold trim. The theater included 11 backstage dressing rooms, an elevator, a

"There are a lot of extras at Holy Cross - like a little extra help with history."

Like thousands of students before him. Jordan knows the value of an associate’s degree from Holy Cross College. It’s a value measured in personal attention. Whether it’s a little extra help with a history paper or guidance selecting the right courses for his plans to transfer to Notre Dame.

With its challenging curriculum, new residential life program and low student-teacher ratio. Holy Cross provides a great start for college success. And when Jordan graduates with his associate’s degree, he will have fulfilled many of the requirements for a Notre Dame degree. (As a Holy Cross student, he already takes advantage of many of Notre Dame’s resources.)
