I hear the reader cautiously inquire. Yes, there are Notre Dame students in Mexico, in Innsbruck, in Japan and Angers and now-the moon. And it’s high time, I might add. For years now we’ve known about the flourishing culture of the mini-people inside the moon, of their very complex and intricate system of linguistics. ..and it’s only Tonight's Town logical that Notre Dame would be among the first of universities to institute a program there. Bizarre, though, their manner of going about it. Only the students in France are informed of its existence- probably because they thought of it. In fact, this information is the base of dramatic presentations soon to be performed by a group Meeting appropriately known as “The Notre Dame Moon Program .” Fascinating, isn’t it.

That is why this article is not asking for sympathy, nor for congratulations. Nor is it suggesting impracticalities; I would not want Notre Dame to cut down on its heating or its marvelous food or its typically American abundance of hot water. To my mind, the students pay for this. My suggestion is that it be appreciated. TTiat it be relished in. That the students enjoy being spoiled, for life will not always spoil them. And if you want to do something? First, I admire you for seeing past home and the campus, and for having the ambition to want to change the world, for that is what the problem demands. Secondly, work first with yourself and with no other. There walks on our campus an excellent example of what one person can do.
