The cheap attempt at piety in the Blue Ciixle's letter in reference to Name Withheld should be deplored by every thinking Notice Dame man. To the SCHO­ LASTIC'S outside readers, the mistaken im­ pression may go forth that the Blue Circle casts the motes from all eyes hereabout. This impression reflects a falsity more monstrous than whatever implications might have been found in the letter in question.

    NOTRE DAME WELCOME TO NOTRE DAME The interior of the golden-domed Main Building on the Notre Dame campus was closed for the 1997-99 academic years as it underwent a renovation. The facility was rededicated in ceremonies in August of ’99. It also underwent a $5 million exterior renovation, which included the cleaning and repair of the 4.2 million bricks of the facility, in 1996. The University of Notre Dame decided, however, was precisely the type of institution Notre Dame would become. How could this small Midwestern school without endowment and without ranks of well-to-do alumni hope to compete with firmly established private universities and public-sup- ported state institutions? As in Sorin’s day, the fact that the University pursued this lofty and ambitious vision of its future was testimony to the faith of its leaders — leaders such as Father John Zahm, C.S.C. As Schlereth describes it: “Zahm… envisioned Notre Dame as potentially ‘the intellectual center of the American West’; an institu- tion with large undergraduate, graduate, and profes- sional schools equipped with laboratories, libraries, and research facilities; Notre Dame should strive to become the University that its charter claimed it was.” Zahm was not without evidence to support his faith in Notre Dame’s potential. On this campus in 1899, Jerome Green, a young Notre Dame scientist, became Notre Dame’s founding can perhaps best be charac- University’s academic offerings.

Before I get any further, my name is Zack Htun, and I am a senior Finance major with a minor in Actuarial Science and Theology. Like my fellow Captain, Nick, my passion for this community has brought me back for a fourth year in a row in the same section, 4A. I’m originally from Akron, OH, hometown of Lebron James, Goodyear Tires, and a river that caught on fire back in the 60s (charming, isn’t it?). At my time here at ND, I’ve been involved as a member of the Leprechaun Legion Board, a student-run athletic marketing association that aims to generate unforgettable in-game experiences as well as produce some pretty sweet merch. Last summer, I worked on campus as a Mentor-in-Faith for Notre Dame Vision, a summer youth conference that welcomes over 1000 high school students each year to spend a week at ND and explore their faith.

As in previous years, Topps has produced special issue cards of Hall of Famers, all in the style of the popular 1987 set - this year’s set features 5 all time greats - Ted Williams, Cal Ripken Jr., Johnny Bench, Nolan Ryan and Ken Griffey Jr. These are regular sized cards that were issued only to VIP attendees at the 2017 National Convention, making them pretty scarce. Backs show that cards were spe- cially issued at The National. We suggest you order soon - supply this year is limited. All cards Mint in the original sealed packs.
