You’re sitting there staring at the blank word document page and you hear the low rumble of your stomach. “Oh no,” you think as you begin looking around for something to satisfy your hunger. Every time you find something to make though, your mind slips back to the three papers you must finish and the time you don't want to he time to make “Hamburger Helper.” It’s at this exact moment when the urge to reach for the car keys to take yourself to your favorite fast food restaurant become the most prominent, but bathing suit season is around the corner and your trying to watch what you eat.

The sense of community at Notre Dame is one of the things that makes our college special. It's one of the first things that prospective students notice when they visit, and one of the important factors that brought many of us here. For some previous students, it also drew them back to their alma mater as faculty or staff members. I was able to interview several of these special alumnae.
This difference between inspiration and plagiarism is like the difference between borrowing and stealing. It’s like “made from real cheese” vs. “cheese-flavored product.” One is good, one is gross, and sometimes you can’t tell the difference, especially if you’re my age.

The “Digital Divide”. It’s a term being used often in the news, but according to the University of Minnesota Duluth’s website, the official meaning is, “The gap that exists between those who have access to Electronic and Information Technology, and those who do not.” For example, high-income, Caucasian, married, and well-educated individuals have more access to IT as compared to low-income, African American and Latino, unmarried, and less-educated individuals (National Telecommunications and Information Administration, 2000, 2002), according to Bnet.

A Poem by Erin Hamilton
Heavenly Gaze I was born to look out the window A space of heavenly glow An angel that wisely speak Very strong, but not weak They come down from the sky To clip wings, so people can fly The life on earth to heaven above Where god makes them feel a lot of love They are sent when time has come For people to pass, and then some All to enjoy life and rest in god’s hand Be at peace and reincarnate back on land Now back on earth as a living thing So we can admire it, as beautiful bling.
