rr M f Enthusiastic Participation Those at this university are unmistakably sports enthusiasts, regularly filling Rockne weight rooms, crowding the track at Loftus, and occupy- ing the racquetball courts in the JACC. While not every student can be a stellar athlete, most choose to participate in one way or another. And one of the most visible ways is to support the varsity teams who sport the Blue and Gold, both at home and away. Through the excitement and disappointment of any athletic season, the Notre Dame student body watches expectandy for the final outcome. Bleachers are filled, the arena is packed and the old familiar cheers are heard. It is obvious mat students take pride in their school teams and die teams members take pride in their school, whose name they represent each time they take to the athletic battleground. Nationally ranked singles tennis player, Dave DiLucia runs to attack at the net. Tim Singleton dribbles around an Iowa opponent in the NIT pre-season tournament. Irish linebacker Michael Stonebreaker stops a Miami rusher during the Oct. 20th contest.

I An Academic Challenge The motivation to study is never absent from the heart of a Notre Dame student. With the diverse academic curriculum and ability to sculpt a stimulating schedule of classes, ND students cannot possibly become bored with their academic life. Starting with the first day of classes, stu- dents try to approach the academic semester with enthusiasm, sharing notes, old tests and study time. While writing papers, doing labs and finishing off projects might be somewhat stressful, it is definitely not cut throat. The spirit of academia is built on the desire to learn and share with others what one knows, truly a part of the ongoing Notre Dame tradition. The beautiful autumn weather lent itself to the perfect study environment, and this class decided to relish the colors of the season by having their discussion outside. The Hesburgh Library is a familiar sight to many Domers, as many long nights are spent there before and during finals.
