You are everything that is expected of a Notre Dame student, but you are different. The stereotype isn't big enough for you because when people say, "He's a great guy," you really are. You know how to apply your knowl­ edge and principles in real life situations. The problem: some rectors have confused or forgotten the purpose of their positions. The responsibility is huge, but essentially, the hall staffs purpose is to foster the growth of the residents and promote the family tradition. The key words are "foster" and "promote." This involves more than "protecting" and "maintaining." If the rector is more concerned with his appearance • lETTER TO THE EDITOR and the image of the dorm than the welfare of his resi­ dents. he will inevitably select a staff that is also out of touch with real. internal issues. He needs control. At that point, it's "us against them" and you can forget about An Open Letter to Malloy family tradition. He would have voted for you, but you aren't puppet material, and judging from your character and popularity, you don't have much potential. You have taken the time to lift your nose from the books and take the brave step outside your own room, so your peers know who you are. You aren't a dork, and that's dangerous because you don't enjoy working behind the scenes and reporting to the "warden." You are confident, and people listen when you speak up, so you could have revealed his duality or political motivations. Someday he wants an office in the main building, so he needs to maintain the dorm's image at all costs. and an individual like yourself threatens his con­ trol. Your problem: Some rectors are not looking for "great guys" that know how to stand up and get the job done. Some rectors are looking for the guys that are familiar with the words "yes" and "master." He didn't vote for you because he knows he'll never wrap you around his finger. lie doesn't want you because you have a backbone, and when the situation arises, you'll open your mouth. You also know when to keep your mouth shut, and that's what scares him the most. Why won't you be an RA next year? Either they took the "family" out of Notre Dame, or your rector made I was deeply saddened to learn of the recent suspension and resignation of Rev. David A. Garrick, another bad decision. C.S.C. The chronology of events leading up to his suspension implicates the University's cooperation in the discriminatory behavior clearly outlawed by the policy statement "The Spirit of Inclusion at Notre Bob Kerr is a sophomore English major. /-lis column Dame." I believe that the Notre Dame community deserves a more complete explanation from you and appears every other Friday. from Campus Ministry Director Rev. Richard Warner of the events surrounding Rev. Garrick's The views expressed in this column are those of the removal from his duties than has been offered so far. author and not necessarily those of The Observer. I am very concerned that hypocrisy, instead of a real spirit of inclusion, drives much of Notre Dame's policy when it comes to hiring, firing, or fostering a Christian-based approach to differences among students, faculty, and alumni. For example, when I was a Notre Dame freshman in the fall of 1970, I was simultaneously proud of being a Notre Dame student and embarrassed by and ashamed of the rampant anti-Semitism and misogyny that thrived in my dorm and in my classes. Fond as many of my memories of my years at Notre Dame are, they are forever contaminated by the hatreds, insults, and personal abuses to which I daily bore witness as a member of the Notre Dame "family." Nonetheless, among so many other hatreds, the hatred of gay people was so extreme that even admit­ speak up. ting to being gay was unthinkable. The fear I felt at Notre Dame of being ostracized for using the word "gay" to describe me or anyone else was as oppressive a form of self-denial as I have ever known. Luckily, the world is now a different place from the one I knew in 1974, as is Notre Dame. I am therefore saddened that, instead of encouraging voices of tolerance and understanding, Notre Dame still punishes honest men and women who attempt to speak on an issue about which the University has an ignoble legacy of silence, disavowal, and rejection. I almost feel as did Thoreau when he washed his hands of Massachusetts: instead of commanding the respect of its "family," Notre Dame • • • instills in me the only kind of emotion appropriate to heavy-handed institutions built on sham plati­ VOICe yoLA~ optV\IOV\5 tudes and hollow credos-pity. In closing, I would like to quote from "The Spirit of Inclusion at Notre Dame," as reported in the Notre Dame Magazine (Autumn 1997): "We condemn harassment of any kind, and University policies aV\d seV\d to proscribe it. We consciously create an environment of mutual respect, hospitality and warmth in lette~s which none are strangers and all may flourish" (5). At this moment, I feel estranged from any institu­ tion that could so eloquently endorse a Christian approach to gay people and then so capriciously and viewpoiV\t.1 @V\d .edLA cruelly silence them as you have done with Rev.

A Frenchman, a Scotsman and an Irishman walk into a theater, impress St. Patrick's Day crowd with laughter and Celtic folk tunes

By MATTHEW LOUGHRAN Scene Writer

outh Bend on St. Patrick's night seemed like a winter night in Dublin. Cold rain pelted down on cobblestone walkways as people ran to S doorways in the thick blanket of fog trying to avoid being drenched. Anyone walking into the State Theater on that night would have been treated to an atmosphere similar to walking out of such a night on Grafton Street into the Oliver Saint John Pub. Celtic music, Irish dancing, beer and appreciative shouts from the crowd greeted the weather weary trav­ eler into the warm red and gold interior of the aptly named State Theater which, on that evening played host to a performance of the Celtic Fiddle Festival. The musicians that make up the Celtic Fiddle Festival are not all Irish, nor do they claim to be an established group. The three label themselves as indepedent per­ formers that tour together. Each plays an individual set and then the three play a joint set to end the show. But before the Celtic Fiddlers took the stage, joHn Kennedy and The Bent Tin Whistle Band played a num­ ber of traditional Irish tunes accompanied by the young and talented members of The World Academy of Irish Dance. At the end of his set, Kennedy introduced Rosie McCormick who took the audience to the break with an acapella version of the world-famous Irish classic "Danny Boy." McCormick hit every note without fail and left the members of the audience absolutely silent until she linishcd to a roar of approval.
