Friday, April 4, 1997 McFortune’s? Can commercial restaurants-ever com

By JUSTYN HARKIN Departments Page Editor

Matt Szabo, during his 1997 campaign for student body president, ran on a platform that offered, among other things, the commercialization of the Huddle’s restaurant space in the LaFortune Student Center. Szabo imagined a new Huddle, complete with brand-name gourmet coffee and honest-to-goodness sand­ wiches from a real-live deli. Szabo was also quick to comment that Notre Dame’s Food Service-run Huddle was a dinosaur compared to other universities’ student centers, which featured com­ mercial restaurants like McDonald’s, Burger King or Taco Bell. The notion of commercial restaurants occupying LaFortune was indeed provocative, but election results effectively dropped the issue, perhaps until a future candi­ date picks it up. There are two ways for the University to bring in a restaurant like McDonald’s: either through a licensing agreement or the purchase of a franchise. A licensing agreement would permit Notre Dame to use the name of a large franchise, but it would be limited in what it could offer in terms of menu selection. If a licens­ ing agreement was arranged with Taco Bell, for example, n only the basic taco would be available, with the possible i addition of another item. c Purchasing a franchise, on the other hand, would permit the University not only to use the name of Taco Bell, but to (WMfttittv sell all Taco Bell products. The LaFortune location of the franchise would thus be entitled to all of the privileges boasted by the licensee especially in the winter. across the street. Prentkowski also explained that because of the size of the University, the cus­ Dave Prentkowski, direc­ tomer base is rather limited.

The distance from the “We do not run it [the Huddle] as a profit-generating business,” said towers to LaFortune will greatly decrease the amount of employee patrons, Prentkowski. “We just want to break even.” - Big ideas in store for the future of the Huddle By JUSTYN HARKIN early closing hour, 9:30 p.m. Departments Page Editor Labella explained that the decision to make Allegro’s closing time earlier was due to an extremely light evening usage. Although there is little likelihood of commercializing LaFortune, that does not “[Keeping Allegro open late] was not a good use of our resources,” Labella said, completely rule out the possibility of any change in the future.

Last week we sent decision letters to thousands of students who applied to Notre Dame. Now, many of those admitted would like to visit the University, meet some students, spend a night in a dorm, and in general, get a sense of the community that is Notre Dame. We initially approached our Hospitality Program members to fulfill this role. However, we can never be certain what the demand for overnight visits will be. To insure that we do not disappoint any potential visitors, we want to open the invitation to host to any enthusiastic undergraduates of Notre Dame, We will host on all of the following nights: Sunday, April 6 □ Wednesday, April 16 Monday, April 7 □ Thursday, April 17 □ Tuesday, April 8 □ Friday, April 18 □ Wednesday, April 9 □ Saturday, April 19 □ Thursday, April 10 □ Sunday, April 20 □ Friday, April 11 □ Monday, April 21 □ Saturday, April 12 □ Tuesday, April 22 □ Sunday, April 13 □ Wednesday, April 23 □ Monday, April 14 □ Thursday, April 24 □ Tuesday, April 15 EH Friday, April 25 EH If you can host a student on any night, please let us know. We need all the student hosts we can get. To volunteer, simply check the day(s) that you would be available to host, clip this advertisement from the paper, and drop it off in the Admissions Office: Room 113 Main Building.

If you have questions or concerns, please contact our office. On behalf of the newest members of Notre Dame, we thank you very much for your enthusiasm and generosity.

Sincerely,

LETTER TO THE EDITOR ■ Letter to the Editor Thank you for Blaming hip-hop for our problems the humility Dear Editor, This is in response to Eduardo Hull's article called “Returning to our roots.” In this article, Mr. Hull cited that hip-hop (yes, rap) reflects a violent and materialistic nature, indicative of “the loss of virtue and morali­ Dear Editor, ty through a lack of God.” I wonder if Mr. Hull is suggesting that all rap falls under this criticism. Also, wouldn’t this imply that there are no positive, God-loving rappers? I hope not, because you would be sadly Father Warner, Father Jenky and Sister Teresita, mistaken to deny how often topics of religion come up among certain rappers. Perhaps you may not know this by listening to the radio or watching MTV, but how could you criticize an entire genre without I would like to thank you for the small change at researching it? Did Mr. Hull do his homework before writing the article, or is he deaf to the lyrics that 10:30 Mass in the Basilica the last few weeks mean something to people all across the world? prior to break. I have noticed that the servers Besides blaming hip hop for the problems of the world today, Mr. Hull wants to bring religion (assumingly have been kneeling during the consecration at Catholicism) into public schools, “and in this way direct us to His goodness.” Does Mr. Hull realize what he Mass. This has made for an atmosphere where I is saying? Public schools in the United States of America are NOT for religious education.

It certainly is a positive sign that the Basilica at Not only do 1 consider it hypocritical for a Catholic to refuse to pay for a more egalitarian society, I find it Notre Dame has chosen to recognize in a small ludicrous to trace the problems of our country to religion. One of the cornerstones of our society is the free­ way the greatness of the sacramental presence dom from religion, whatever a misguided Notre Dame student newspaper editor may have you believe. The which we come together to celebrate. Taking a loss/lack of religion among many people is an effect of other things in our culture, not a cause. In an envi­ physical position which recognizes the relation­ ronment filled with drugs, crime, violence, sub-standard schools, materialism, racism, dysfunctional fami­ ship between ourselves and our Lord makes our lies, broken families, and a growing gap between the classes in this society, it is very easy to stray from your “amen” at the end of the eucharistic prayer ring conception of a virtuous lifestyle. In these circumstances, religion does little to remedy these problems out ever more loudly as we recognize Him with besides creating a population content with the strife in their lives with the hopes of an afterlife. our whole selves. I urge Mr. Hull and others who think like him to read this letter for what it is. In no way is this a personal attack; I just can not allow Mr. Hull’s line of thinking to go unquestioned. All I ask is for the consideration of some of the issues that I brought up. JOSEPH BROSSART Law Student DAVID K.
