UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME • UND.COM 5 THIS IS NOTRE DAME The University of Notre Dame When Father Edward F. Sorin started his school in the northern In- diana wilderness, he had only $300, three log buildings badly in need of repair and a far-sighted vision of establishing a liberal arts school to meet the growing educational needs of the frontier. He dreamed of building a great university, and in 1842, he founded the University of Notre Dame du Lac. Over the years, the University of Notre Dame du Lac would evolve into a preeminent place for Catholic thought. While becoming one of the top undergraduate institutions in the country, Notre Dame has also been at the cutting edge of research, including such innovations as the transmission of wireless messages and the development of synthetic rubber. The University also has stressed residential life, with four of fi ve students living on campus. Students come to Notre Dame not only to learn how to think, but to learn how to live, keeping faith with the vision of Father Sorin.

The University of Notre Dame was founded by Rev. Edward F. Sorin, C.S.C., as an independent, 1842 national Catholic university adjacent to South Bend, Ind., on St. Mary’s and St. Joseph’s Lakes.

Deeter – JoAnna Deeter ended her career as one of the best women’s cross country and track and field runners in Irish history. A native of Glen Ellyn, Ill., Deeter earned All-America status twice for cross country in 1996 and 1998 and three times in track and field, all in 1999. Included in her accomplishments were two then-school records - the indoor and outdoor 3,000 and the 10,000.

Heisman – Achieving success on both the track and the football field was the trademark of former Irish runners Tim Brown and Raghib “Rocket” Ismail. Brown won the 1987 Heisman Trophy in addition to running with the track team during the offseason. Brown owned the school record in the 55 meters until 1990 when ‘90 Heisman runner-up Ismail ran 6.07 in the event, and eventually went on to earn track All-America honors by finishing second in the 1991 NCAA indoor 55 meters.

Meyo Invitational – Four minutes, one mile. For years it was the unbreakable barrier and it remains among the most celebrated feats in all of sport. Folks that know the sport of track and field will tell you that 3:40 in the 1,500 or 7:55 in the 3,000 are just as impressive, but to the casual fan there is something about the simplicity of it; four laps, four minutes, one mile. In February 2011, the 25th annual Meyo Invitational will return to the Loftus Sports Center on Notre Dame’s campus with the marquee event at the meet being the Meyo Mile. In the past three seasons, no fewer than four runners have broken the magical four-minute mark, highlighted by two of the most exciting races at Notre Dame in recent memory. In 2003, Luke Watson won the race in school record time (3:57.83), moving into the lead a mere John P. Nicholson was one of track and field’s greatest innovators in the late 20’s and early 30’s.
