Fellow speaks about freedom Constitutional Studies scholar reflects on issue from multiple perspectives

By ALEXANDRA MUCK News Writer

Daniel Mark, visiting fellow with the Constitutional Studies Program, called for a defense of religious freedom in the face of global and national threats during a lecture Thursday.

“We have before us the underlying question of whether people have the right to choose and live their faith free of interference by the government or whether the limits of religious freedom are determined solely by judgements of prudence such as whether encroachments on religious freedom will detract from a state’s international standing,” he said. “In other words, we have the question of whether people have a right

Rape from ’81 reported to ND Observer Staff Report

A rape that allegedly occurred on campus in 1981 was reported to the University, according to Thursday’s Notre Dame Security Police (NDSP) crime log.

The alleged rape occurred in a Notre Dame residence hall between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 1981, according to the report. It is currently under Title IX review.

Information about sexual assault prevention and resources for survivors of sexual assault are available online from NDSP and from the Title IX office.

Saint Mary’s Chainsmokers to perform Chemical Society at ND for IDEA Week earns travel grant Observer Staff Report

By MAEVE FILBIN News Writer

The Saint Mary’s Affiliates of the American Chemical Society, or SMAACS, recently received a grant to travel to New Orleans in March for the 255th American Chemical Society Meeting.

As an affiliate chapter of the American Chemical Society (ACS), SMAACS members applied for the travel grants associated with the national meetings held twice throughout the year. They were subsequently awarded $300 and the opportunity to present their research to other ACS members. This grant and additional funding from other grants and scholarships offered at Saint Mary’s will completely cover travel expenses for the 12 students attending. All 12

Students serve at Catholic Worker House

By CIARA HOPKINSON News Writer

Junior Lucie Ly first volunteered at the South Bend Catholic Worker as a Notre Dame Vision mentor the summer after her freshman year. She enjoyed the service so much she made it a part of her routine the following year, and decided to stay at the women’s house over her sophomore year spring break.

“Basically, I cooked meals with them, I ate with them, whenever they went to the store I went to the store with them — I just did chores, just normal, everyday things but with this community of people,” Ly said.

Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin founded the Catholic Worker Movement in 1933 on the conviction that every person has the same human dignity, giving them the right to respect and love. This belief drove Ly’s desire to live in community for a week.

“I didn’t do that so much to volunteer as to really live with the women and experience what they experience on a daily basis because I saw a lot of ‘us versus them.’ Like they came in and saw these volunteers trying to be good people doing service and they kind of felt isolated from the Notre Dame students,” Ly said. “I didn’t want them to feel like I was trying to pity them or do charity work for them. I wanted them to see me as trying to be equals with them.”

According to an article in “Today‘s Catholic,” the South Bend Catholic Worker encompasses a men’s house and a women’s house, each of which houses 10 residents, and Our Lady of the Road, a drop-in center that includes laundry and shower facilities, a chapel and a dining area serving well over 100 people breakfast every weekend.

Junior Sam Ufuah spends every Saturday morning at the drop-in center cooking and serving breakfast alongside the homeless, some of whom are volunteers themselves.

“A lot of them actually come from Hope Ministries, which is another community focused on helping people who are disadvantaged get opportunities for jobs and homes,” Ufuah said. “Some of them are volunteers themselves. They go to different shelters and help out despite not having homes, which is just incredible.”

The men’s and women’s houses eat dinner together

every night of the week, sharing duties and spending time in community. Notre Dame professor Margaret Pfeil, who co-founded the South Bend Catholic Worker in 2003 with former professor Michael Baxter, is an integral member of that community, Ly said.

“She lives in the house next to the men’s house, and sometimes she has guests stay at her house as well, she lives with her husband,” Ly said. “W henever she doesn’t have conferences or meetings, she tries her best to be eating with the guests. She knows all her guests very intimately, she goes to the drop often and works there, she’s just a very active member. She’s not just up there on the administrative level taking care of everything — she’s actually involved in the work.”

That work includes helping the residents find jobs, but never with the impression that this is their last chance, Ly said. “[Pfeil] is a great resource,” Ly said. “She’ll be a good recommender for them for certain jobs and she really encourages them to find work and get them on their feet, but the Catholic Worker is there as a support for as long as they need it.”

Both Ly and Ufuah said the South Bend Catholic Worker truly embodies the vision of the larger organization.

“It’s really neat because not just volunteers come — people just come to have dinner, it’s a community and these people are friends,“ Ly said.

“W hen I first started working there it was hard for me to distinguish who was a staff member and who was a guest because they all lived very similarly.”

Ufuah said he was inspired by a quote from Dorothy Day in the backroom at Our Lady of the Road while volunteering his sophomore year.

“She said something like, sharing yourself with the poor is love because there comes a point where you and that category is blurred and there’s no longer a category, it’s just you and your brother, you and your sister,” Ufuah said. “I really took that to heart because we tend to categorize people based on whatever attributes, but underneath all that is just humanity, it’s just man and I think being there has helped me develop that in my heart.”

GRC, Campus Ministry to host LGBTQ retreat

By KELLI SMITH News Writer

A Campus Ministr y and Gender Relations retreat geared towards LGBTQ students w ill take place Saturday afternoon at the Sacred Heart Parish Center.

Open to the Notre Dame, Saint Mar y’s and Holy Cross communit y, the sixhour retreat aims to help lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning (LGBTQ) students recognize that God is calling them to love others through the unique grace of being LGBTQ, Fr. Joe Corpora, the Campus Ministr y chaplain to LGBTQ students, said. “​ [ My goal is] that students w ill leave the retreat being more conv inced of God’s merciful love no matter what,” Corpora said in an email. “There w ill be presentations, discussions, time for quiet prayer and, of course, celebration of the Mass and dinner. There w ill also be an opportunit y to go to confession.”

Corpora said the retreat, which costs $10, is specifically focused on LGBTQ students. He expects its atmosphere to be a “prayerful quiet day” w ith time for presentations and discussion.

The main speaker of the retreat, alumnus Matt Dev ine (‘15), said he w ill

Concert Continued from page 1

“Including fun events, such as the performance by The Chainsmokers, is just one way to help attendees relax, unwind and meet other attendees,” he said in the release. “And maybe someone you meet becomes your next client, customer or business partner.”

The concert is just one event of many that will comprise IDEA Week.

discuss the idea that the Catholic and LGBTQ communities are not mutually exclusive despite some perceptions of it.

“There is a difference bet ween being a Catholic for me and being a Catholic w ithin the institution of Catholicism and that’s something that I do find hard to reconcile and I understand how other people do as well,” Dev ine said.

“But I have found such great peace; being Catholic is how I see the world as well as being a member of the LGBT communit y.”

Dev ine said he feels luck y to be in a position in which he feels comfortable enough to come back on campus, share his experiences and “rew rite histor y.”

“I‘m excited to see where Notre Dame has come over the even three years since I’ve been there,” he said.

“Three years ago I could not have thought that 20 people would be on this retreat.

As of Monday there was 17 people who had signed up and registered to come which is k ind of baff ling to me.”

Campus Ministr y had the idea of an LGBTQ retreat over 20 years ago, Tami Schmitz, Campus Ministr y’s associate director of pastoral care, said.

“We wanted to give

students from the LGBTQ communit y an opportunit y to gather, pray and share stories of their lives w ithin a faith context,” she said in an email. “The retreat has taken different forms over the years. Sometimes it’s over a whole weekend and sometimes it’s an afternoon of ref lection.”

Senior Liam Maher said he decided to register for this year’s retreat because as a gay Catholic, he appreciates opportunities to engage his faith in a holistic manner.

“I think retreats like this are so important for LGBTQ Catholics because it gives us the opportunit y to affirm our identit y at a time when many exterior pressures can make it difficult to see the good in who we are as people,” he said.

Maher said he doesn’t often get to speak about his life, spiritualit y and theolog y as someone different from “the heteronormative mainstream.”

“I am so grateful to Campus Ministr y for planning and executing such an inclusive and thoughtful event,” Maher said. “It gives me hope for the future of our church and the Notre Dame communit y.”

“Other events include a comedy show by comedian Gabriel ‘Fluff y’ Iglesias; startup competitions offering prizes worth hundreds of thousands of dollars; speakers; workshops; and a TEDx event,” according to the release.

The Chainsmokers were scheduled to perform on campus in February 2016 in a concert organized by Tilt, a crowd-funding platform.

However, it was cancelled due to contract negotiation issues. According to a report

in the South Bend Tribune, these disagreements centered on “a University policy prohibiting performers from having drugs, alcohol, weapons or armor.”

The Chainsmokers’ music spans a wide array of styles.

Their first album “Memories … Do Not Open” debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States. In 2018, the group was nominated for both Grammys and iHeart Music Awards. Tickets for the concert will go on sale Feb. 9.

to religious freedom in principle or only in practice when it suits the state.”

Mark said he sees a “landscape that is deeply worrisome” when looking at religious freedom today and that he believes religious freedom is a right granted by God. On a global scale, Mark said totalitarianism, both religious and secular, threatens religious freedom. Mark cited Saudi Arabia and Iran as examples of this totalitarianism.

“What critical to remember about those places is that the problem isn’t just religious freedom for minorities; it’s religious freedom for everyone,” he said. “ … [No one] is free to dissent or change or deny …

The theocratic ways of these countries deprive the entire population, not just minorities, of religious freedom.”

To have religious freedom, Mark said everyone must have the freedom to choose which religion to follow.

“Religious totalitarianism ultimately aims to control the entire person, even down to one’s thoughts,” he said.

Mark said the other global totalitarian threat, secular totalitarianism, “fears the true God” rather than “false gods.”

In secular totalitarianism, Mark said, countries such as China suppress religion in the name of security.

“In these countries, through elaborate systems of registration and approvals, the governments regulate and monitor all religious activities,” he said.

In the U.S., Mark said, we must be grateful for our religious freedom and be vigilant in defending it.

“We’re not inherently better or more deserving of religious freedom than anyone else in the world, and we should not take our good fortune for granted,” he said. “Rather, we must work hard to preserve the cultural and political and legal conditions that make religious freedom possible … We should neither exaggerate our problems here and forget how good we have it, nor should we exaggerate our blessings and neglect our defense of religious freedom.”

Mark said the threats to religious freedom in the U.S. from the left are “more obvious and better known.”

As an example of one recent trend, Mark noted that the

fastest growing religious group in America is the “Nones,” or the people who do not identify with any religion on surveys.

“My concern about this trend is that people who do not value religion are unlikely to value religious freedom,” he said.

Mark said the underlying idea of many actions on the left “rejects anything that stands in the way of radical personal autonomy, not only to choose unrestrained what we do but even what we are.”

“Having abandoned the proper grounds for human rights in order to make room for the ever-expanding list of demands, they’ve left the concept of rights so thin and so watered down that the very idea is in danger,” he said.

In the U.S. on the right, Mark said there are two threats to classical liberalism, otherwise known as modern-day American conservatism. One of these is the alt-right, which Mark said represents a form of “identity politics that rejects the inherent dignity and equality of all human beings.” The other, Mark said, is a group of critics within the conservative movement that rejects classical liberalism and believes American democracy is “fatally flawed and bound to fail.”

While he said the ideas of classical liberalism must be balanced with other values, Mark said individual rights are still important.

“Is [classical liberalism critics’] goal to build a newer, better, likely smaller Christendom, or is their goal to create just enough space to build a Christian culture within a classical liberal world?” he said.

Mark said he believes virtue and religion are necessary in today’s world. Citing a difference between liberty (“the freedom to pursue the good”) and license (“the freedom to do whatever you want”), Mark said the right to religious freedom must be grounded in the good of religion.

“Once we know what is truly good for our nature, what is truly part of human flourishing, then we can know which rights are real and which aren’t,” he said. “ … Religious freedom is essential to the good of religion because in order to be genuine it must be freely chosen. The rights protect the goods.”

We are strong and capable women here at Saint Mary’s, and we need to highlight and celebrate that fact.”

Fishovitz, a professor of chemistry and physics, said the most rewarding aspect of this trip will be an increased awareness of the innovative research taking place at Saint Mary’s.

“We will be able to spread awareness about the research that’s being done at Saint Mary’s — not only at the conference where the students will get to network with graduate schools, medical schools and other prominent scientists — but also here on campus,” Fishovitz said. “We’ll show people that our students are doing research, and they’re doing research that is able to be presented at a

national meeting with chemists from around the world.”

DiLallo said she is looking forward to representing Saint Mary’s at the national meeting, spending time sharing ideas with colleagues and learning how to utilize a scientific background to improve the world.

“This is a huge accomplishment for SMAACS to be recognized by the national American Chemical Society as a student chapter that is actively making an impact on our campus and in our world, as well as providing opportunities for undergraduate student research at an early age,” DiLallo said in an email. “I think this is even more of a reason for Saint Mary’s College to continue to develop a vibrant research culture on campus so that Saint Mary’s students can present at conferences like these and demonstrate the unique and empowering women’s education we receive here.”

is actually not impossible, but rather it is something that administrators have supported during his work this past year,” the Kruszewski-Dunbar ticket said in a statement emailed to The Observer on Thursday night. “ … We never meant to portray that we were endorsed by the administration of Notre Dame, just that a unique benefit of our team is that we have experience working with administrators and therefore

can achieve bold goals. We will change the wording of the platform in order to make this clearer, and tuition reduction will remain a staple item as it is something that we know we can make progress on in the coming year if elected.”

According to the press release, the Judicial Council needs to review and approve the revised platform of the Kruszewski-Dunbar ticket before its publication.

“Hot Streets,” the brand new animated comedy from Adult Swim, appears true to the Adult Swim ethos of being jarringly weird and uncomfortably graphic with a fundamentalist fervor. However, unlike the network mainstays “Rick & Morty” and “The Eric Andre Show,” there does not appear to be much happening underneath the show’s bizarre exterior that makes for a worthwhile television show.

“Hot Streets” revolves around two unlikely detectives in their precinct’s investigative division known as the ‘hot streets’ department. The incompetent detectives Mark Branski and Donald French are assigned the paranormal cases in an unnamed cartoon city. Branski is a parody of the stereotypical curt, macho veteran detective, while French is his ridiculously naive and ambitious younger counterpart. The show also prominently features Branski’s niece, Jen, who lives with Branski alongside her dog Chubbie Webbers (voiced by Justin Roiland.)

The animation on “Hot Streets” is strikingly simplistic. The show’s style is reminiscent of the animation on Robert Smigel’s old “Saturday Night

By NORA McGREEVY Associate Scene Editor

Small, cartoonish bubbles float across a bright green field of color, interlaced with wiggly sketches of leaves, seedlings and stems. In another work, strong black markings repeat in rhythmic curves and slashes. On yet another wall, an anguished, woman-like skeletal figure hangs from a thread attached to her bellybutton, her mouth gaping wide as though she has been captured mid-scream.

These are the kinds of distinct images which comprise “Modern Women’s Prints,” one of the current exhibits at Notre Dame’s Snite Museum of Art. The exhibition boasts an impressive collection of prints made by female artists working in the “modern” period, with an emphasis on art made in the past 10 or 15 years.

In one highlight of the exhibit, Lorna Simpson’s “Details” series (1996) includes tightly-cropped images of African-American female figures, where each image focuses on the actions of hands. Hands rest at the sides of their owner, put weight down on a table and pick up a phone or raise a flower to a nose. Each photo is paired with a suggestive word like “reckless” or “member,” a technique which both enters the text into dialogue with the image.

The exhibit also features a three-piece set of works created by Louise Bourgeois near the end of her prolific life. “Triptych for Red Room” (1994) includes many motifs visible throughout Bourgeois’ career, such as the breakdown of the family unit, the vulnerability of bodies and sexual imagery juxtaposed with simple, infantile renditions of faces and forms. The bright sky blue in the background appears jarringly out of place compared to the raw pain and distortions of her

Live” ‘TV Funhouse’ shorts. The animation in “Hot Streets,” however, far exceeds the SNL shorts in its quantity of uncanny, surreal moments. It is also an incredibly violent show. Of course, a late-night cartoon about cops that hunt and kill monsters is bound to have some gore, but “Hot Streets” is absolutely excessive. Each episode seems to be about as gory as the infamous “Pickle Rick” episode of “Rick & Morty,” but in far more gratuitous way.

The fundamental problem with “Hot Streets,” however, is the series’ lack of ambition. For every clever thing that an episode gets right, it mishandles three for no good reason. The show may be an animated comedy on Adult Swim featuring the voice talent of Justin Roiland, but it explicitly lacks “Rick and Morty’s” most prized elements. Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon together created one of the most successful animated comedies ever by imbuing “Rick & Morty” with remarkably complex jokes, compelling character development, detailed animation, sight gags and a tantalizing series arc.

In many ways, “Hot Streets” could not be further from the ethos of “Rick & Morty.”

Nonetheless, there are some definite bright spots in the show. For example, the bluntly moronic character of Branski can be absolutely hilarious at

times; the show manages to pack in some surprisingly funny sight gags, like Branski and French both intently driving their squad car with two separate steering wheels. Roiland’s goofy talking dog character is surprisingly funny at times, but does not have much to work with much. Chubbie Webbers, while not entirely devoid of originality, feels like a Morty rip-off nonchalantly tossed into the series to generate buzz.

“Hot Streets” is perhaps the most uncomfortable thing I’ve ever watched from Adult Swim. I have to give the network credit, airing a cartoon that is this bizarre represents a real commitment to their artistic mission. But “Hot Streets” will undoubtedly be too much for many, even loyal fans of past notoriously weird Adult Swim programs like “Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!” The show will find its niche audience in the sliver of comedy fans who derive their greatest pleasure from being offended and made to feel uncomfortable sheer weirdness and eccentricity. “Hot Streets” is by no means the worst thing on television, or even on Adult Swim, but it is too nihilistic, underdeveloped and strange to be a part of Adult Swim’s impressive oeuvre.

figures. The writhing figure in the middle print also recalls her eerie, hanging sculpture, “Arch of Hysteria” (1993), which was recently displayed alongside many other prints in a retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, “Louise Bourgeois: An Unfolding Portrait.” The show aimed to draw more attention to Bourgeois’ printed work, which it argued was vastly understudied compared to her sculptures.

Other interesting pieces include prints by Emmi Whitehorse, an American artist whose “Pollination” (2011) presents an abstracted, codified version of a natural landscape which draws inspiration from her home state of New Mexico, her Native American heritage and linear geometric forms. A few works from Lee Krasner and Grace Hartigan, members of the abstract expressionist movement, emphasize their interest in gestural expressionist techniques. In one example, the famous drip technique championed by Jackson Pollock manifests in Krasner’s “Primary Series: Blue Stone” (1969).

Although the works seem to be a from a myriad of unconnected artists, nearly all of the featured artists are connected in one way or another. Many of the works were printed in Universal Limited Art Editions (ULAE), a pioneering print workshop that began production after World War II. Other works were printed by artists trained in the Tamarind Lithography Workshop in Los Angeles, or the Segura Arts Studio in South Bend. Both ULAE and Tamarind were owned and operated by women, although both male and female artists participated in their work.

Beyond the connections between the origins of different works, however, I found myself at a loss for how to relate the works in the show to one another. Not all of the works in this exhibit have historical links, and besides the item information next to each work, the

exhibit contains no other explanatory text.

Exhibits usually provide a unifying thesis or at least a general theme that suggests why one might try to put all of the works in a room and in dialogue with one another. But the general qualities “modern” and “women” are so broad and all-encompassing that I struggle to see how they could be unifying qualities, especially when all of the works are themselves so different. I hope that we’ve moved past an era in art curation where the only undergirding reason for a collection of pieces would be the simple fact that they were made by women — that, to me, reads like laziness.

It’s possible that the exhibition eschews any kind of guidance on purpose, to allow the viewer to make connections between works in their own way. Yet this explanation strikes me as unlikely, especially considering the thesis-driven quality of the other two exhibits currently on view in the Snite, “Money Worries” and “Dimensions of Power.”

At its best, “Modern Women Prints” showcases the proliferation and profundity of women printmakers, and also displays the work of underrepresented artists working in an often-underestimated field — printmaking. At its worst, the structure of the exhibit runs the risk of confusing its audience by substituting large descriptors such as “Women” or “Modern” in place of an actual specific theme, perhaps unfairly detracting from the inherent quality and importance of its subject material.

For more woman leaders Hallie Nolan News Writer

In our current political world, women are showing up more than ever. This year’s upcoming elections are already seeing a wave of women preparing to run for office, many of them for the first time. I hope that we are on the verge of having our first female president because it will show the entire country that women have the abilities necessary to do any job and face any challenge. I know that this cannot happen until the United States accepts women in leadership roles, but I also know that at Saint Mary’s we have all the tools we need to start this. The world needs female leadership, and Saint Mary’s is using their legacy as an all-women’s college to foster leadership skills for their students.

Professors encourage students to take leaps, like apply for a prestigious internship, study abroad and even run for political office. The school also has programs and opportunities to develop leadership qualities for students. Last year, I participated in the Women, Leadership and Communication class where we learned about women’s leadership and what we could do to become leaders at school and in the world.

This incredible opportunity taught me so much and I would not be the person I am today without the leadership skills I have learned at the College.

As a student, I have leadership positions in multiple student organizations, including being the President of College Democrats. If I went to a coeducational institution, I would wonder if I was passed over for the position because I am a woman, or maybe I would not have been encouraged to start the club at all. At Saint Mary’s, students are able to lead without fear of discrimination based on gender. The thing I think Saint Mary’s does best is normalize women leadership.

Every leadership position is filled by a female student, which provides a really great example for all students, which is the beauty of an all-women’s college. Most of our administration, including our President, is made up of women. These opportunities are due to the legacy of the college’s promise to create women leaders in the world.

There are so many benefits to attending an allwomen’s college. For me, one of the most tangible benefits is that I have had so many opportunities to be a leader. I am ready to go out and change the world because of the skills I gained over the past four years.

At Saint Mary’s, we have the tools to start a society where women are valued as leaders. As a society, we have a responsibility to encourage women to become leaders in our own communities and in the entire world. We also have the responsibility to become leaders, and, by example, create more women leaders.

We deserve better On Friday at 2:11 p.m., student senators received an email informing them that their presence was mandatory at an emergency student senate meeting at 5:30 that evening.

“This will also be a closed meeting, the existence of this meeting must be kept confidential,” the email read.

In the early hours of Friday morning, the Judicial Council Election Committee announced sanctions against a ticket petitioning for signatures to run for student body president and vice president. But the ticket appealed the sanctions, and senate was required by the Student Union Constitution to convene within 48 hours to hear it.

And so they did. The senators filed in as windows were covered so no one could see in or out of the room. An Observer reporter was asked to leave, and did so once the group voted to close the meeting to the public in order to ensure the “safety and anonymity” of the party who brought forth the allegations.

For three hours, testimony, debate and discussion ensued.

What exactly was said is unclear, but tensions were certainly high — visible in the weary, frustrated looks of senators as they walked in and out of their conference room, some voicing complaints about the proceedings.

When the three-hour ordeal finished and a decision was reached, the senators were finally excused. Two hours later, Judicial Council released the result of the long evening’s work.

The ticket’s original sanction of a five-hour suspension for campaigning — the punishment for allegedly entering classrooms to lobby for signatures, a violation of the Student Union Constitution — had been reduced to two.

At this point you may be thinking: “Wait, what? Those are the sanctions they had to spend three hours debating behind closed doors?”

Yes. “Why was the punishment and reduction so arbitrary?”

According to subsections 13.5(c) and 13.5(j) of the Student Union Constitution, if the Election Committee finds a party guilty of alleged election misconduct, it has broad power to determine the appropriate sanctions, and senators can “overturn” that decision.

“And they can do it without anyone else getting to hear why?”

If senate votes to close the meeting at the start by a twothirds majority, then yes.

“Didn’t something like this happen last year?”

It did. One ticket was accused of campaign spending misconduct for purchasing Facebook advertising without the Election Committee’s approval. That ticket lost 7 percent of its votes before appealing and having the sanctions reduced to a 5 percent deduction after another multiple-hour emergency senate meeting.

“Did that end up mattering?”

No, it turned out the winners already had a narrow majority of the initial votes before any sanction was levied, but Judicial Council delayed releasing the results until the appeal was heard.

“So why did senate have to handle the matter behind closed doors?”

When they voted to close both of these election-related emergency meetings, they did so with the only reason offered being the “sensitivity of the topic.” But senate has also voted to close its meeting in two additional instances this year alone, which is a trend of cutting the student body off from its representatives.

“Well then how does student government expect the student body to take it seriously as representatives?”

That’s a good question.

Each year, most, if not all, of the tickets running for student body president and vice president tout professional-grade websites; this year is no exception.

Each year, the tickets running claim to be a voice for the students and vow to fight for the concerns of the student body; this year is no exception.

Each year, student senate and Judicial Council exercise their arbitrary powers over what seem like technicalities; this year is no exception.

It’s clear that student government takes itself seriously, and, for what it’s worth, this is a good thing — it has to, if it is going to accomplish anything.

What is a problem, however, is that Friday’s emergency, closed-door senate meeting is yet another reason to ask one simple but important question: Can anyone on the outside looking in take student government as seriously as it takes itself?

We all value fair elections, but do allegations of asking for signatures after class or buying a $5 Facebook ad merit multihour senate meetings? Does handling these seemingly minor infractions behind closed doors, leaving the public with more questions than answers, help it “represent the student body?”

Can the majority of the student body say it understands why these meetings have to take place in secret?

If this is how student government uses its resources and prioritizes its responsibilities, then changes need to be made.

While this Editorial Board does not speak for every member of the Notre Dame community, we can assume that students would rather student government spend its time working toward returning Flex Point rollover or securing a late-night dining option in Duncan Student Center instead of in closeddoor meetings over insignificant campaign violations.

Last year, voter turnout in the student body presidential election was below 60 percent, and all it takes to vote is the click of a button — you can even vote from your phone. This speaks to the fact that many students aren’t engaged with student government. Which is understandable, as spending three hours deliberating a two-hour suspension of a campaign doesn’t help engage students or demonstrate viable commitment to enacting the changes and improvements that candidates promised during the election season. Neither does keeping the meeting “confidential.”

Students can’t care about or engage with something they know nothing about. With multiple closed-door senate meetings this year, engaging the student body is clearly not a priority for student government, no matter what it may claim.

As elections for the next student body president and vice president approach, we as a student body should demand more.

Because we deserve more.

We deserve more transparency.

Last year’s Editorial Board called for transparency when Judicial Council handed out its arbitrary deduction of 7 percent of votes for the Fonseca-Narimatsu ticket without offering any explanation to the student body. But this already questionable level of visibility has seemed to decline even further. Not only has senate had three closed meetings this academic year alone, but it attempted to skirt procedure altogether for this most recent session — organizers of Friday’s meeting violated section 3.4(o) of the Student Union Constitution by claiming a senate meeting was closed and confidential before senators even voted on the matter. Many senators said as they entered the room that they had no idea what the meeting was even about, but they voted to close it anyway. Closing the meeting to protect the identity of the accuser doesn’t strike us as a good reason, either — was giving this person a shield meant to protect him or her from harm?

Or merely criticism?

We deserve more accountability.

Without that transparency, there is no way for members of student government to be held accountable. In last year’s election allegations, the results could have possibly been determined by the closed-door decisions of Judicial Council alone had the sanctions impacted the outcome. And who’s to say the suspension in campaigning has any effect? If the signatures for the petition to run were acquired through a rules violation, why was the guilty ticket not required to instead garner more signatures for its eligibility? Ultimately, we have no way of knowing if the punishment fits the crime.

We deserve better representation.

The purpose of student government is to represent the students, and the first step in that is to respect the students that elected them. The Blais-Shewit platform promised to “move senate meetings to a larger space whenever discussing important items so that more constituents can attend.” Yet, nothing in the spirit of that promise was achieved when senate closed its meeting Friday — or the other two times this year. Instead, student government sent the message that its work transcends the student body and exists beyond the realm of the community’s comprehension. In short, student government chose not to take the body it represents seriously.

And this organization’s lack of transparency, accountability and representation for us begs the question of whether we should be taking it seriously, either.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Troubling quotes from ‘To wonder women’ Recently, after writing my viewpoint article “Pro-life and pro-woman…?” our campus has become captivated by the idea of coexistence between pro-woman and pro-life positions. In the flurry of intellectual rhetoric that has ensued, I read a viewpoint written by a brilliant friend of mine. Regardless of what follows in this article, I want this friend to know that I respect her deeply as a human being, intellectual and millennial activist.

However, as I read her open letter “To wonder women”, I couldn’t help but recognize her article as one riddled by a subconscious perpetuation of contemporary sexism. The following are the four ideas expressed in the article that most troubled me. Please note that in an attempt to avoid both accusations of and the manifestation of mansplaining, I have asked the editors of The Observer to exclude my viewpoint from publication in the case of a woman submitting a response following the same vein of this article. It is beyond a safe bet to assume that a woman would more aptly elaborate on the following objections. At any rate, the following four quotes from “To wonder women,” in my mind, show the thought process not of a feminist, but rather of a cog in the patriarchal machine.

“To my left, my smiling partner carries, ‘This p—grabs back.’ And I would hesitate. What kind of woman is this march celebrating?”

In this statement, the author of “To wonder women” is imagining a scenario in which she is part of the Women’s March. While the passage’s eloquence is undeniable, there is a much more sinister assumption found in the literary crypts: that revolutionary rhetoric is socially unacceptable of a woman. This quotation, in and of itself, signals to readers that not only

is it unacceptable for women to challenge norms, but that to do so somehow is a measure of “what kind of woman” they are. The author (implicitly, I believe) has chosen to confirm the sexist myth of the “unbecoming” woman who challenges authority. “‘Rise up, Man!’ Rise up, and acknowledge the incredible gift that is a woman.”

For this quote, perhaps I’m a bit over-reactive.

Perhaps my viewing lens of sociology and American history has made me a bit oversensitive in regard to viewing human beings as “gifts.” This statement implies that a woman’s worth is found not in her humanness but rather in her woman-ness. It allows for the idea of ‘woman’ to include exclusive and stringent criteria. It allows for gendered stereotypes. It allows for dangerous rhetoric and action toward transgendered women. Yes, women are incredible and strong and intelligent and worthy and insert adjective here — I agree. But, they are these things not due to their woman-ness but rather due to their humanness.

“Indeed, racism and profanity do not make America great. Still, is calling men bigots our best example of love trumping hate? If women had been in power for far too long, and a man made these statements against the matriarchy, I’d think he was in danger of becoming the very tyranny his marginalized gender opposed.”

This statement reveals a common misconception found in the belief that fighting the patriarchy is in fact fighting men. By standing up to the patriarchy in the manner that contemporary feminist movements do is not at all fighting men. It is fighting the system.

Taking down the patriarchy does not mean enslaving men. To believe contemporary feminism is in opposition to men is equivalent to believing that the LGBTQ

community is opposed to the non-LGBTQ community.

It is equivalent to believing that Black Lives Matter is anti-police and anti-white. It is equivalent to believing that prison-reform is anti-law. It is equivalent to believing that to be pro-Palestinian means murdering all Israelis. Social movements, specifically in the contemporary United States, have never been about bringing down the oppressive but rather uplifting the oppressed. Contemporary feminism is not about bringing down men but rather uplifting women of all creed, sex, color and sexual orientation.

Does profanity command respect?

Hell yes it does. To respond to profanity from a woman’s mouth in disgust is textbook sexism. End of story. Profanities are some of the most powerful words in a protester’s lexicon. To rob women protesters of the power of profanity is chauvinistic especially given the fact that profanity has, in the past, been used to bring countless women down.

Just as profanities are powerful, language generally is important. The myth of “words doing no harm” is entirely false. Words inspire movements. Words create hate. Words create discrimination. I am sure that my, as I said before, brilliant friend didn’t mean for her article to be riddled with so much sexism. But, that’s part of the problem. Recognition is the first step toward improvement. If we, as human beings, rely too much upon our social and cultural predispositions we suffer the risk of unknowingly perpetuating the most dangerous ideologies from our world’s marred past. We can do much better.

‘Cha-Ching’ expands NFL and NCAA playoffs Gary Caruso Capitol Comments

This Super Bowl weekend might have showcased the Seahawks or Lions against the Ravens or Chargers had the NFL included four wild card teams and eliminated the bye round. If the NCAA had enlarged its playoff pool, Alabama may still be the champion, but wouldn’t matching them against an undefeated University of Central Florida (UCF) have been a highlight of the collegiate playoff season?

Surprisingly, expanding both NFL and NCAA playoffs is an easy process. More surprisingly is the notion that the football guardians of both sports organizations have yet to hear “Cha-Ching” in their ears. It is obvious that the professional and collegiate football hierarchies foremost cherish a business enterprise existing within their respective enclaves, so that expansion will soon rise on the horizon.

Look no farther on the amateur collegiate level than at Notre Dame’s history of reliance on football revenues that leverages its entire existence. Without Knute Rockne radically transforming the game’s fundamentals during its early era, Notre Dame would never have been able to maintain its partial independence from college conference affiliations, nor negotiate an exclusive NBC television football coverage contract. The University might well still be a small, midwestern cow-pastured, private, religious college boasting an endowment in the million-dollar range rather than beyond its current billion-dollar threshold.

For whatever “academic,” “religious” or “life does not revolve around football” rhetorical reasons Notre Dame may have cited, the Irish simply refused to participate in bowl games from 1925 when they beat Stanford until given an opportunity to play in the 1970 Cotton Bowl matchup against top-ranked Texas. In those days, teams only played a 10game regular season schedule, and national championships hung on the whims of two national ranking systems: coaches through the Coaches Poll and journalists within the AP Poll. However, in 1970, Notre Dame could complete

a trifecta: 1) compete against the top-ranked team, 2) claim the national championship by beating that No. 1 team, but most importantly, 3) proudly collect a handsome bowl paycheck to the tune of “Cha-Ching!”

The 1970 decade not only dawned a new era for Notre Dame bowl participation and television revenues, but also gave birth to a super-money chase era whereby nearly all of the major Division I football programs competed for exposure and revenues. Eventually, schedules extended into the present-day standard 12-game season. Regional conferences — for example The Big 10 which now is comprised of 14 teams — expanded into divisions and added one extra revenue-generating conference championship game at their season’s conclusion. Conferences chased television revenues and shared proceeds throughout their memberships with weak-performing teams.

The NCAA can easily inflate its four-team, two-week playoff system by accommodating at least 16 teams that begin play during the last two Saturdays in November. Those two rounds would not only substantially expand their playoff system, but by early December would morph back into the present-day system with the final four teams selected for January competition. Logistics would not substantially hinder individual football schedules other than to free the last two Saturdays in November.

The NCAA would further control the flexibility to simply include any two teams playing in their conference title games as an automatic seed within their 16-team playoff brackets. Imagine each November the top 16 ranked football teams playing each year in a “big dance” like NCAA basketball. This structure could include more independent teams but would eradicate any bias against lesser-known programs with undefeated records like Boise State or UCF. An undefeated UCF this year was ranked behind twice-beaten longtime renowned Ohio State and Penn State. Ironically, Penn State fought the same bias fifty years ago while undefeated five times but only awarded two championships.

Turning to the NFL, expanding its field of playoff

participants is simple: add two Wild Card teams to each conference and eliminate the current bye week for the top two seeds. That adds four new teams and four additional revenue-rich playoff venues. Each division winner would still host a first-round game against a Wild Card team.

However, a better form of parity would occur after each division winner is rewarded the initial home game whenever teams with the best overall records are rewarded with a home game during the later rounds. More teams would generate more revenue for themselves and the playoff process.

Reshuffling the host teams each round more equitably shares the playoff experience in additional cities.

Potentially, for example, a good 12-4 Wild Card team that placed second to a 13-3 division foe in its difficult division could now host a second-round game against a division winner sporting a more modest 11-5 or mediocre 9-7 record.

This year, adding the four Wild Card teams would have included the 9-7 Ravens and Chargers along with the 9-7 Bills and Titans in the AFC. It is anyone’s guess if the Patriots would have survived. In the NFC, two of three 9-7 teams that missed the playoffs — the Cowboys, Seahawks and Lions — would also have been playoff bound.

In the age of Social Media when “Cha-Ching” rings long and loud, NFL owners and NCAA officials will soon explore extending their perspective playoff systems. Like the irresistible mythological siren songs, expanded amateur and professional football playoff systems are beckoning. The sound of cash is a promise that can always be taken to the bank.

Sports Authority

Hey DC sports, blame the owners Tobias Hoonhout Associate Sports Editor

Well surprise, surprise, another Washington D.C. sports team shot itself in the foot.

W hen I first saw the breaking news of the Redskins trading for Alex Smith and simultaneously ending the Kirk Cousins era in Washington, I laughed.

Decide to move on from your longest tenured quarterback since 1991 for a guy four years older and marginally better? Sounds like a Washington move.

After all, Smith isn’t the first 33-year-old quarterback the Redskins have ever traded for (shout out to Donovan McNabb). But also sending a third-round pick and upand-coming corner Kendall Fuller as well? Must be a Dan Snyder idea.

Growing up in D.C., you get used to be getting let down by the hometown ball clubs. It makes fans wary, but at this point, I have to admit I’m not surprised in the slightest. The Redskins have struggled tremendously to get back to the glory days of old. In 19 seasons under Synder, they have yet to win a Super Bowl, haven’t even made it to the NFC championship game and have a 132-171-1 record. So what is Dan’s solution? Every couple years, just shake things up with a new coach or quarterback.

Look how well that’s worked.

Sure, I understand the NFL is a business where people need to deliver results in order to keep a job — coaches and quarterbacks for Washington haven’t done that. But Synder’s overreach and insistence on micromanaging his team has been a downright disaster. The Redskins haven’t been a team to shy away from the bold move, but it has yet to pay off.

Remember Robert Griffin III? Synder basically mortgaged his team’s future on the fact that this quarterback would be the answer when he traded up to draft him and, for one spectacular year, it looked like he had actually made a good move. But then Griffin got cocky, because Synder had handed him the keys to the kingdom. From there, it all came tumbling down.

W hen I think of the failings of my hometown sports teams, I can’t help but wonder if there is a real problem, because the runaway

9

train doesn’t stop with the Redskins.

W hile the Capitals, Wizards and Nationals unquestionably have had more regular season success than Dan Snyder’s team, there still seems to be a unanswerable lack of postseason success. Just take a look at Ted Leonsis’ teams in the capital.

The Capitals have arguably the most talented player in the NHL in Alex Ovechkin.

The forward is one of three players in NHL history to score 30 or more goals in each of his first 13 seasons, and is also among the elite number of those still actively playing with 500 goals and 500 assists. They’ve been a consistent playoff team over his career and yet they have yet to make a conference final.

The Wizards, with four top-10 picks since 2010, have certainly had opportunities to build a future. Now, I don’t doubt the difficulties of drafting successfully in the NBA, and the Wizards have seemingly made solid decisions with a corps of John Wall (No. 1 overall), Bradley Beal and Otto Porter (both No. 3 overall). But the recent exorbitant contracts the team has given all three has certainly left the future in doubt, and with no team yet to challenge LeBron for the title of the Eastern conference, I wonder if the front office has been concerned more with playing it safe and being content with simply making the playoffs than actually going all in and trying to get a shot at a championship.

Even the Nationals, who have been the perennial NL East powers behind the efforts of homegrown stars like Bryce Harper and Steven Strasburg, have yet to even win a playoff series in their brief but bright career.

There seems to be an issue in Washington. Like my colleague Tom Naatz, who also made the case last semester of the problems with Washington sports, I can’t help but wonder if the 25plus year drought is simply a curse.

But with moves like the Smith trade?

I think Washington fans can start with holding ownership accountable.

Washington wins third in a row without Wall Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Washington’s Bradley Beal says he’s playing with less stress since making his first NBA All-Star Game.

The way he shook off his miserable start on Thursday, he might be onto something.

Beal scored 25 of his 27 points in the second half, helping the Wizards to a 122119 victory over the Toronto Raptors.

“It lifted a little bit of a burden off my shoulders,” said Beal, who overcame the first half of his NBA career without a made field goal. “That’s something I don’t have to think about or try to prove. I can just play freely, enjoy the process, enjoy the moment.”

The Wizards had eight players score in double figures in their third straight win without All-Star point guard John Wall, who had surgery on his left knee on Wednesday.

Otto Porter Jr. had 16 points and 11 rebounds in his first double-double since early December, and Markieff Morris scored 15 points — including five straight in a stretch that gave Washington the lead for good in a dogged battle against the secondplace team in the Eastern Conference.

“It’s basically a simulation of the playoffs,” Morris said. “Bodies flying everywhere and you just got to play through it. The toughest team is going to win like it did tonight.”

Kyle Lowry scored 17 of his 29 points in the fourth quarter for Toronto, but missed two late free throws. All-Star DeMar DeRozan added 23 points and Serge Ibaka had 16 after a potential tying 3-pointer rimmed out late.

“I’ll live with Serge’s shot any day,” DeRozan said. “I’ll live with Kyle going to the free-throw line any day. It

just didn’t go in.”

Morris capped a 9-0 run by hitting a pair of free throws and then a baseline 3-pointer off Porter’s feed to put Washington up 115-110. From there, the Wizards hit seven of their last eight foul shots to seal the game.

Lowry hit a spinning runner to cut it to 118-116 with 11.6 seconds left, but couldn’t convert the three-point play.

Then with 3 seconds left and Toronto down 120-118, Lowry reached a loose ball off Washington’s inbounds and got fouled, but missed the first of two foul shots.

“I wasn’t clutch enough,” Lowry said. “But trust me, I will be next time.”

Up next Raptors: Start a four-game homestand Friday against Portland.

Wizards: Play six of their next seven on the road, beginning in Orlando on Saturday.

nba | TIMBERWOLVES 108, BUCKS 89

Timberwolves continue dominance at home Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — Home sweet home for the Minnesota Timberwolves — again.

Jimmy Butler scored 28 points, Karl-Anthony Towns had 24 points and 11 rebounds for his NBA-best 46th double-double, and the Timberwolves beat the Milwaukee Bucks 108-89 on Thursday night.

“That’s a lot on us for being disciplined and having that resiliency as a team, and having that pride, especially here at home,” Towns said.

“We’ve done a great job all year of making sure we stop the bleeding early. Now we just have to focus on making sure we don’t win one, lose two, win one. That’s not a good recipe.”

Jeff Teague added nine points and eight assists for Minnesota, which was

coming off consecutive losses at Atlanta and Toronto.

The Timberwolves have lost six of their last seven road games and have returned home with back-to-back losses from their last three road trips.

Each time, Minnesota has responded at home with a victory, winning by an average of 14.25 points. The Timberwolves’ 21-6 home record represents the second-most home wins in the NBA behind San Antonio’s 22.

“We want to make it hard to play here, hard to win here,” Butler said. “I think we’ve been doing a great job of that as of late. It’s one win.

We’ve got another one coming up on Saturday and we need that one too.”

Khris Middleton scored 21 points for Milwaukee, which had won four in a row.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 17 points and 15 rebounds, but the Bucks shot 37.6 percent from the field and committed 15 turnovers.

“They just didn’t let up,” Middleton said. “They got a lot of easy shots, a lot of easy baskets; offensive rebounding. They’re a physical team, and they just worked us.

They made us grind it out, and they were real physical with us all night.”

In the first meeting between the two teams, Milwaukee erased a 20-point deficit in the third quarter for a 102-96 home win.

“When you’re down it’s not only scoring but you’ve got to get the stops and run,” Bucks interim coach Joe Prunty said. “That’s the whole thing, we let them shoot a high percentage tonight. They had about 50 points in the paint.”

Syracuse and the intermittent weeks saw the Irish drop close home contests to North Carolina, Louisville and Virginia Tech. Most recently, the Irish were blown out in Cameron Indoor Stadium

by No. 4 Duke as Farrell and freshman wing D.J. Harvey have joined Colson in missing significant time due to injury.

It’s only the beginning of February, but as the Irish enter the second half of their conference slate, head coach Mike Brey’s squad will need to rack up a significant number of wins in order to secure a berth in the NCA A tournament.

The first challenge on that rebound: North Carolina State.

“We need it. Every game is valuable at this point,” Irish senior forward Martinas Geben said. “We have nine games left in the regular season, any win we can get, we’re going to take it. We need it for our conference.”

Geben said that Brey has talked to the team openly about the likelihood of making the NCA A tournament.

“We had it all laid on Tuesday in the locker room on the whiteboard,” Geben said. “Coach talked to us about what we need to do and ways we can get in the tournament. At this point we need wins. That’s the most important thing, we need wins on the road, especially this opportunity coming up at N.C. State will be a lot of help for us.”

Boston College won their regular season opener against Fordham 7-0 last Friday.

The Irish are coming off of back-to-back w ins over Texas and Minnesota last weekend at the ITA Kick-Off Weekend in Austin, Texas.

After upsetting No. 8 Texas, Notre Dame won the regional w ith a 4-1 w in over Minnesota last Sunday.

Against the Gophers, the Irish were powered to singles w ins by junior Grayson Broadus, freshman Richard Ciamarra and freshman Tristan McCormick.

In the doubles competition, the pair of senior Brendon Kempin/McCormick battled out a close 7-6(4) w in on court No. 1, while the team of sophomore Matt Gamble/ Ciamarra earned a 7-6(3) v ictor y on court No. 3.

Dame’s rough start in the ACC has been the string of injuries to key players. On Thursday, Brey said Farrell will be a game-time decision, with the hope that he practices Thursday and Friday.

“I’d have to evaluate him the next two days live — I haven’t seen him go five-onfive yet — and see how he feels,” Brey said. “We could use that lift of having him in the lineup even if it’s for 18 minutes to have him in the game some. That could really help us and lift us.”

“I’m trying to get back as soon as I can,” Farrell said.

“I’ve been getting treatment, I’ve been using a bone stimulator, so it’s helping a lot.”

Brey said freshman wing D.J. Harvey will not suit up Saturday, but will look to return to the lineup in the coming week or two.

In the absence of Farrell, Colson and Harvey, Notre Dame has tried a number of lineups to get offensive production.

The Irish have committed to putting more bigs on the f loor to get a leg up on the offensive glass. With the exception of the Duke matchup and the first Georgia Tech game, the Irish have managed to outrebound their opponents in every ACC game this season. The last time the Irish and the Wolfpack met, Notre Dame won the battle on the boards 41-30, including 10 offensive rebounds.

The Irish have also relied on sophomore guard T.J. Gibbs and sophomore forward John Mooney who have led the team offensively in the last stretch of games. Gibbs scored 22 points against the

“One of the things I think we’ll do Saturday is let Gibbs start with the ball in his hands and keep Matty [Farrell] off the ball, and let him get comfortable” Brey said. “Once we substitue, bring Matty back to the ball, but start the game with Gibbs with it in his hands, I think that could help him jump start himself, because he’s

been so darn good.”

North Carolina State is coming off of a two-game win streak, including wins over Pittsburgh and a road victory in overtime versus North Carolina.

Despite the urgency of the next stretch of games, Brey said his team is ready to respond.

“Kids are amazingly resilient and older guys are even more resilient,” Brey said.

“If we had a team of more

sophomores and freshman, I think this would really affect them. But this is a group that’s older. I’ve been very realistic with them about our chances and where we stand, what we would have to do to get back in the picture.

compete as some of the main reasons they have started 5-0 this season.

“First and foremost, I really like the fact that we are prett y darn good at ever y spot in the lineup,” Sachire said. “I think, there have been seasons where we were good in a few different spots in the lineup but maybe had some holes as well. I like us one through six in singles and one through three in doubles. I think we can w in v irtually against any team in the countr y at any one of those spots. So that really gives you a great feeling going out there on game days know ing that we’re not giving up any positions, and so I think that number one is our lineup. I also like how our guys have competed.

“For the most part we’ve been loose and free and playing to w in and not putting a ton of pressure on ourselves, and if we can continue to do that we’re a prett y darn good team and we’ll be tough to beat.”

ND hosts final home meet

By CHARLOTTE EDMONDS Sports Writer

The No. 22 Notre Dame men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams are set to host their sixth and final home meet of the regular season this Saturday at Rolfs Aquatic Center. In last week’s Shamrock Invitational, the Irish swept the board against ranked opponents, including Ohio State and Wisconsin, setting nine Rolfs Aquatic Center records. Irish head coach Mike Litzinger hopes to continue that dominance this weekend against Ball State and Green Bay, while also focusing more on getting more from his team.

“We will be swimming in a different event order, and our athletes will not be competing in a full schedule. We’re picking one or two events to focus on, and allow the depth of our team to make the difference,” Litzinger said in an email.

The No. 24 women and No. 20 men are currently enjoying a long winning streak, having not lost since Nov. 19 at the Ohio State Invitational in Columbus, Ohio.

Litzinger said the approaching ACC championship has changed the strategy for the team going

forward.

“We will be splitting the squad next week. We have to declare 18 swimmers and three divers ... those not attending the ACC meet will focus on Ohio State [next weekend]. It is a fast meet, and we had a lot of success there last season.”

The Irish have also been succeeding outside the pool as well.

Both the men’s and women’s squads were recently named scholar All-Americans of the College Swimming and Diving Coaches Association of America for the fall semester. This marks the fifth-consecutive semester earning this honor, all under Litzinger’s tenure.

“This honor speaks to the duality of Notre Dame — high level academics and athletics. I am extremely proud of how our group takes on that responsibilities, they deserve the honor,” he said.

The meet begins at 1 p.m. at Rolfs Aquatic Center. Notre Dame will then travel to Greensboro, North Carolina for the ACC championships which begins Feb. 14 and continues through Feb. 24.

Irish junior guard Arike Ogunbowale dribbes down the court in Notre Dame’s 84-70 victory over Tennessee on Jan. 18 at Purcell Pavilion. Ogunbowale leads the team in scoring, averaging 20.1 points per game.

up the court, with junior guard Marina Mabrey settling into her role of running the point in place of injured graduate student guard Lili Thompson. Mabrey finished the night with eight assists, tying her season-high.

Senior forward Kathryn Westbeld scored her first points of the game with a minute left to play in the half, as the Irish went into halftime with a 51-21 lead.

Once again, the Tar Heels struggled to score at the end of the quarter, not scoring the final 2:42 of half. North Carolina turned the ball over 12 times in the first half.

In the third, North Carolina went on one of its only scoring runs of the game, an 8-0 run that lasted over two minutes, but Irish freshman forward Danielle Patterson ended the streak with a layup to bring the game to 61-33.

on its feet and started a Notre Dame scoring run that ended the third quarter, in which the Tar Heels once again were incapable of scoring for the final 2:13.

Mabrey finished the game with a team-high 25 points and eight assists.

However, in the midst of the final 6-0 run for the Irish in the third quarter, Westbeld was poked in the eye and left the game, not to return. McGraw described her condition as day-today after the game.

“We had a doctor and an ophthalmologist look at her already, and there’s no structural damage, it’s just swollen shut,” McGraw said. “So, she’ll be day-to-day.”

The start of the final stanza was the Arike Ogunbowale show.

The Milwaukee native found herself open consistently on the offensive end, and she hit backto-back 3s to open the quarter.

Her streak was interrupted by a North Carolina bucket, but Ogunbowale was unphased, heading back upcourt and sinking her third 3 in a row, helping

her to a total of 24 points on the night. She then turned up the heat on defense, coming up with an impressive steal — one of her four — that subsequently led to a layup by graduate student forward Kristina Nelson, who then went the line for an and-1, putting the Irish up by 41 for Notre Dame’s largest lead of the game.

“I thought Koko gave us some great minutes off the bench, as always. Just great energy, great momentum, shot the ball well, really settles us down when she’s in the game,” McGraw said of Nelson.

McGraw gradually pulled her starters in favor of her bench, and she said after the game she felt her players had a very successful night.

“I thought our walk-ons played really well tonight,” McGraw said. “All three of them did some good things. I thought they were focused defensively, they knew the game plan, they did a really good job. As you can see, the whole starting unit was so happy when they scored.”

Freshman guard Nicole Benz capped off the scoring for the evening, picking up her first career bucket on a 3-pointer with 37 seconds remaining in the game.

McGraw said she has been pleased with her squad’s offense all season, especially since the loss to Louisville, but she has been happy with the returns she has seen on defense as well.

“Offensively, we’ve been pretty consistent all year long. I think we lead the conference in fieldgoal percentage,” McGraw said.

“We get pretty good shots. I think we work together well. We’re unselfish, we got a lot more inside touched in the last game than we did tonight, but we still scored 49 points in the paint, so that was pretty good. And then defensively, we’re just more committed.

I think we’re playing harder on defense.”

The Irish will return to the court Sunday when they take on Duke at 1 p.m. in Durham, North Carolina.

Irish cruise to victory at home over Tar Heels

By ELIZABETH GREASON Sports Editor

It may have been a matchup of two of the most legendary teams in NCA A history, but one squad clearly reigned supreme in Thursday’s matchup, as the No. 5 Irish took down North Carolina, 94-62.

Notre Dame (21-2, 9-1 ACC) took control of the game in the first minute, as sophomore guard Jackie Young took the ball to the hoop and lead off an 11-2 run for the Irish. Junior guard Arike Ogunbowale aided the run with a 3 and steal — Notre Dame’s first of many for the evening.

Coming off its first 100-point game against a top10 team in program history with a 100-69 win Sunday over then-No. 8 Florida State, the Irish appeared to be riding the momentum of the victory into every play, outhustling the Tar Heels (14-8, 4-5) for each loose ball. North Carolina turned the ball over five times in the game’s first six minutes.

The Irish ended the first quarter up 26-11, managed to hold the Tar Heels scoreless

for the quarter’s final 2:28 and notched nine assists to UNC’s one in the game’s first 10 minutes.

Irish head coach Muffet McGraw was pleased with her team’s performance, both offensively and defensively, throughout the game.

“I thought we played pretty well defensively, especially through the first 3 1/2 quarters,” McGraw said. “I thought the zone was pretty good — we were identifying the shooters, had some great awareness. I thought the rebounding could have been a little better.”

Assists would be the name of the game for Notre Dame, as it went on to tally its season-high in the category, finishing the night with 28 assists on 37 baskets.

When the Tar Heels did score, they were streaky, as the Notre Dame defense was able to stif le them for long periods of time. After failing to score for the final two minutes of the first quarter, the Irish went on a 7-0 run to start the second. The Irish moved the ball efficiently see W BBALL PAGE 11

The last time Notre Dame and North Carolina State played, things were going alright for the Irish.

For one, Irish head coach Mike Brey picked up his 394th career victory, the most in Irish history, at Notre Dame on Jan. 3 versus the Wolfpack.

Senior forward Bonzie Colson injured his foot in the previous game and senior guard Matt Farrell exited the game against the Wolfpack (15-7, 5-4 ACC) before halftime with an ankle sprain.

But the win over North Carolina State saw the Irish take a 2-0 record in the ACC and prove they could win big without Colson.

Fast forward a month, and it’s do or die time for Notre Dame (13-9, 3-6 ACC).

Notre Dame’s last conference win came on Jan. 6 at

Notre Dame will kick off ACC play this weekend when it travels to Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts to take on Boston College.

Notre Dame head coach Ryan Sachire said his team should expect a tough road matchup to start conference play.

“We play Boston College in our only match of the weekend,” Sachire said. “It w ill be our first ACC match of the year, it w ill be on the road, and so it w ill certainly be a challenge I think and a match we definitely want to play well in and give it our best shot.”

Sachire said he doesn’t want the Irish (5-0) to get distracted during their hot start to the season.

“We had a great weekend last weekend and played exceptional tennis and had t wo really big w ins,” Sachire said. “W hat I want to see

You can get excited about the w inning and the success that you’ve been hav ing and you maybe lose a little bit of the work ethic it took to get there. So what I want from our guys is the same focus we had last weekend and to go out and play another great match on Saturday.”

Sachire also stressed the importance of starting conference play on the right foot against the Eagles (1-0).

“It’s huge,” Sachire said.

“W hen you can get your nose above .500 and start off 1-0 and build from there, it’s a really big thing, so clearly that’s what we want to do.
