For over 10 years, Notre Dame student government has organized “Back the Bend”— a day dedicated to service in the surrounding community. April 2 marked its 12th anniversary and saw the most volunteer sign ups in Back the Bend history. Over 700 students from the tri-campus community and other local colleges participated. 

As the end of the school year quickly approaches, the stress of finals and the longing for a relaxing vacation grow stronger every day. We may have a few more weeks to go before we are home-free, but this April, for a glorious five days, Notre Dame students were gifted an early taste of summer: SunTostal.

A recent campus poll indicated that when students were asked to describe their dating lives in three words, the most popular were “non-existent,” “Catholic” and “you-sound-like-my-mother.”
