APPLAUDING COMMITMENT
I was there for the applause when Notre Dame football team raised their Gold headgear to a _partial crowd in Sun Devil Stadium after they defeated West Virginia to win the 1988 National Championship. I was deaf ened by the noise when the Notre Dame Men's Basketball team unseated #I Ranked North Carolina in the Joyce Center in' 1986. I stood in a crowded room of gleeful shouts when the 1995 Women's Soccer Team defeated North Carolina for the National Championship. I threw my arms in the air with exhilaration when my roommate won the first ever swimming race in the new Rolf's Aquatic Center. An association with Notre Dame virtually guarantees such experiences of triumph that draw us to spontaneous, fer vent, and heartrending response. In the past three weeks I have had the privilege of witnessing three events on Notre Dame's campus where the reflexive action of those present has equaled or exceeded that of any hallmark athletic event: At his wedding reception, a Notre Dame junior spoke poignantly about the joy that day had brought him, the surety of his love for his wife and the gratitude he felt for the fidelity of his family and friends. His heartfelt sentiment was met with applause. It was not simply a courteous response; it was one of those occa sions when people were so moved that we were reluctant to interrupt the pleasure of our own sound of approval ... During the Easter Vigil, twenty three men and women were received into the Catholic Church. When they were presented into the community as brothers and sisters baptized and confirmed in our faith, the community's response was electrifying. The polite and somewhat domesticated way that we have more or less been con ditioned to behave during liturgy was disregarded for a while as people took to their feet, stood on their toes, stretched their necks trying to see, crashed their hands together and even let out a few whoops and hollers as signs of welcome, approval, and appreciation of these twenty-three men and women . . . Last Sunday four men were ordained as priests in the Sacred Heart Basilica. Once again that building shook from community's response to the "yes" that these men had made to serve God and the people of God. The applause that rises from athletic achievement is understandable, even predictable. We are well-schooled to seek winning and esteem winners. But why such an overpowering response to Baptism and Confirmation? to Ordination? Certainly the wedding, Vigil, and ordination were packed with family and friends who felt like and in fact do share in the sacred moments of their loved ones. As a community of believers, we are all deeply affected by the actions of one another. It occurs to me that, in part, the thunderous responses to those who received the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, Marriage and Holy Orders is tied to a recognition of commitment: theirs to God, God's to them, theirs to us, ours to them, ours to God and God's to us. The signs of the times might mislead us to believe that commitment is out of fashion, that even the most solemn promises are negotiable. So often I hear the critique of students on campus that they or someone else is afraid of commitment. We are starving for signs and models of fidelity, steadfastness, perseverance, and hope. We are hungry for indications that commitment, whether great or small, does not limit our freedom and decrease our available choices in life, rather commitment animates and enlivens us and enriches the choices we make. The actions of the men and women that I have spoken of defY notions that commitment is not real or life-giving. I believe the community's response confirms this to be true and that their lives will bear this out. An association with Notre Dame provides us with many opportunities for triumph that draw us to spontaneous, fervent and heart-rending response. At our fingertips when we will be so moved that we are reluctant to interrupt the pleasure of our own sound of approval. Nowhere is it more readily available than through the exploration and living of commitment: ours to one another, ours to God, and God's to each of us.
