Tully Bradley Turek Alan Turner Theology Finance English Science Science Aerospace Engineering Preprofessional Studies Psychology Preprofessional Preprofessional passion for life Just a few weeks after returning from a semester studying in Italy, Liz Ven- ditto was hit with some shocking and scary news — she had ovarian cancer. She spent the summer of 2007 in and out of the hospital, going through surgery and chemotherapy. Despite such intensive medical procedures she endured, Venditto returned to Notre Dame as planned to begin her senior year in the fall of 2007. Friend and fellow PE Pyro Natalie Rodden, pictured to the left of Liz in the photo, was with Venditto and her family through the experience and greatly admires her adversity. Liz had lost much of her energy and didn ' t have hair, but she did not lose her love for her faith, her campus, and for lite. She is such an inspiration to me and all the others who journeyed through this. Venditto ' s strength had allowed her to return to a place she had called home for three years prior and a place she ' s loved and contrib- uted to in many ways during her college career. Being a true New Yorker, out of Staten Island, she has a love for art and museums. She has spent summers working at Manhattan museums, and worked at the visitors desk of the Snite Museum since her freshman year at Notre Dame. Besides this job, she also was a tour guide for the Office of Under- graduate Admissions since sophomore year. Venditto has been involved with Sustained Dialogue, and served as a moderator for the group. She also was a member of the Women ' s Liturgical Choir. She is a History and Romance Language major, and speaks Italian and French fluently. She also has a minor in European studies. Seems like a lot for one person, but Venditto has handled it all, even after hard battle versus cancer. According to Rodden, Liz truly is an inspiration for her faith, her attitude, and passion for life. storvbv Teresa H.mcock elizabeth venditto 323
