The Observer • PAID ADVERTISEMENT Friday, September 5, 1997 An Open Letter to the Notre Dame Community

We, the undersigned members of the Notre Dame community, appreciate the intent of the "Spirit of Inclusion at Notre Dame." This is a truly pro-active document which calls the University community to adhere to a high moral code of conduct. We hope that this statement will inspire all members of the Notre Dame community to reflect on their indi­ vidual roles in making Notre Dame a more inclusive environment in the spirit of Christ.

We urge the Administration and the greater Notre Dame community to recognize that this is not a final solution to the issues facing the gay, lesbian, and bisexual community at Notre Dame. Rather, this action must serve as an impetus for the revision of the legally binding non-discrimination clause.

The "Spirit of Inclusion" holds most members of the Notre Dame community accountable for their actions with regard to discriminatory activities. However, the Administration has refused to hold itself to the same standard; it reserves the right to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation "in administration of its educational policies, admissions poli­ cies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs." (duLac, p. 4)

We, the undersigned members of the Notre Dame community, ask that the University of Notre Dame include "sexual orientation" in the official legally binding non-discrimination clause of the University.

A GLANCE AT GEORGIA TECH THE FIGHT SONG

Georgia Tech "Ramblin' Wreck"

I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer, A helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer, Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear, I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer.

Oh, if I had a daughter, sir, I'd dress her in White and Gold, And put her on the campus, to cheer the brave and bold. But if I had a son, sir, I'll tell you what he'd do. He would yell, "To Hell with Georgia," like his daddy used to do.

Oh, I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds, A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it around. I'd drink to all good fellows who come from far and near. I'm a ramblin ', gamblin ', hell of an engineer.

The Rudy Horror Piuture Show~ By JOEY CRAWFORD Accent Editor

et's do the time warp again." A common refrain from the "Rocky ' LHorror Picture Show" wil be replaced tonight by quite possibly the more recognizable Notre Dame Victory March. Rudy will take center stage - or shall I say center screen - minus the drag of course, to kickoff a new era in Notre Dame history. The film based on the real life account of the famed little man conquers all, Notre Dame alum Rudy Ruetteger, will show tonight at the Snite Theatre at 7 and 9 p.m. and also Saturday night at the same times. The film will be shown in celebration of Bob Davie's new head coaching career as well as the opening of the new and improved stadium. It is also commemorates the only game Rudy ever played here at Notre Dame, when he squared up against the mighty Georgia Tech Yellowjackets. The movie, however. will be presented in a much different format from what had been previously available at the 9 p.m Friday show. According to Ted Mandell, a professor in the Communications and Theatre Department and creator of the Rudy Rally, "The format is geared to get the audience more involved and not be so passive."

Passive is defintely not how the audience will be. Following the first Pep ~- Rally in the stadium, fans are encouraged to come to the Snite Theatre to enjoy some free entertainment with the family favoirte "Rudy" - with an interesting twist. Fans are encougraged to dress up like their favorite Rudy characters to possibly win free Cinema at the Snite passes. Fans are also encouraged to recite lines from the movie and even cheer out loud if the feel­ ing so possesses them, in much the same fashion as the famous cult classic, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Spectators will not be taken to Transylvania but to Rudy's humble beginnings in Joliet, Illinois, to his now legendary years at Notre Dame. There will be some very special guests at the Rudy Rally as well. The Notre Dame Communication and Theatre Department has asked some of this year's walk-ons from the football team to join them in this bash. There is also the possiblibility of some other surprise guests, but the COTH depart­ ment is being very secretive as to who it may be. So come out tonight and enjoy the festivities and celebrate another great year of Notre Dame football in a most unique fashion. -

By JOE WEILER Assistant Accent Editor :~

or all of you who are bound and determined to scoff this weekend's festivities in an attempt to prove to your parents and friends once and Ffor all that you did not come to Notre Dame for the football game, there are a few alternatives with which you can occupy yourselves. Hardly second rate alternative material, seven mary three brings its alter­ native tunes to the Heartland Dance Hall at 222 S. Michigan St. in South Bend this Sunday. For those of you unfamiliar with the band, 7M3, an Atlantic recording artist out of William and Mary, got its first big break after selling stores out of their first major album, CHURN. From that point - they went on to open for such bands as Live and Matthew Sweet. Most well known for its radio-friendly hit, "Cumbersome," 7M3 will be bringing a type of grass roots alternative style with it to Heartland this Sunday. Following in the tradition of Pearl Jam in the same manner that Oasis does the Beatles, they range from mellow, heavy tones, likes those found in "Cumbersome's" droning melodies, to grungy, upbeat tunes with just a bit of funk, like their less popular but still very happening "Rock Crown." Also appearing at Heartland will be the nationally recognized Nixons, who will be opening for 7M3 along with Soak and Ceilophane. Doors open at 6 p.m. for the general admission show. Tickets are $12 in advance and are available at all Ticketmaster locations and at the Heartland Box Office. Tickets are also available the night of the show for $15. For m,are informa­ tion, call Heartland at 234-5200. -~------
