President Rev. Robert A. Dowd, C.S.C., Inaugural Address
“A Catholic university, according to my predecessor and brother in Holy Cross, Father Ted Hesburgh, āshould be a bridge across all chasms that separate modern people from each other.ā
Now, when I reflect on those words, I see a problem and an opportunity.
The problem is clear: Those chasms are widening.
And the opportunity is here: Notre Dame must be the bridge that Father Ted spoke of, and all of us must be bridge-builders.
But before I explore that idea, let me just say right now: I am honored to serve as Notre Dameās 18th president, and I am deeply humbled by the trust shown in me. So many of you have reached out with words of encouragement. Thank you for all your support. Thank you for your continued prayers” Get the full transcript here: President Rev. Robert A.

Win One For The Gipper
So earlier today I was mortified when I finally understood that my beautiful ‘Belle of South Bend’ herself did not understand the origin of the phrase ‘win one for the Gipper’. So, for all of you who would stand with her in this moment I offer you this bit of Americana/NotreDameiana….
…consider yourself schooled!
Win one for the Gipper!
Win one for The Gipper. Has there ever been a better-known and widely-used exhortative phrase in sports? Not likely. But who was the āGipper,ā this mythical-like sports figure whose nickname has aroused, in turn, awe, wonderment, curiosity, and amusement since the second decade of the twentieth century, and why is his story important? Answering those questions is the formidable task taken on here by veteran sportswriter Jack Cavanaugh, whose Pulitzer Prize-nominated biography of boxing legend Gene Tunney was referred to as āimpressively researched and richly detailedā by Sports Illustrated.
