"One final response to this scandal is fully in the control of each graduating senior: don't show up. Don't participate in an event which will only serve to obscure rather than highlight the Churchs pro-life teaching and the true spirit of Notre Dame," Pavone continued. Perfectly stated!

This would be the most effective protest of this travesty.

He's right.
They have a golden opportunity to show what their Catholic faith and their studies and sacrifices at Notre Dame truly mean for them. They can stand up for the sanctity of life. They can reclaim Notre Dame for Christ and Our Lady.

Some pro-life students plan to join Pavone for the alternative event, but others plan to conduct their own protest during the graduation ceremonies, ND Response, the pro-life collection of student groups, told LifeNews.com last week. Pray and then protest both inside and outside the building.
While not a Roman Catholic, I will be praying for my brothers and sisters in Christ that God will bless their stands for the sanctity of human life.

Fr. Pavone’s radio ministry “Life on the line” is a great source of facts for the abortion debate. Bravo!

It will be a hoot to watch the venue flooded with the public so that Obama won’t be embarrassed by a missing audience.
Watch it made to look like there was an overflow crowd, even if every student takes a pass and participates in the alternate ceremony.

Actually, I think they should go to the graduation and play recordings of babies crying during Obama’s speech. That would surely make even the MSM, if he was drowned out by hundreds of crying babies.

I wish I had skipped mine, but only because it was boring. My dad was smart, he brought a magazine.

Notre Dame graduates that don't want to let the Narcissist in Cheif, the Abortion King, steal their day should stand up, turn their backs, and pull their graduation robes back over their heads, William Wallace style, for the duration of Zero's speech.

Great idea! And it took the students to figure out a solution...hooray for them! I hope a great majority of them attend the service led by Father Pavone, leaving Obama facing rows of empty chairs. An empty honor for an empty suit.
But the other idea of pulling their robes over their heads and turning around is good also.
I am sure the students who oppose Obama's views will figure out their own best solutions. What a shame for these graduates...but they have a pinnacle chance to bring this issue to light. They will set the trend, make history, and we can thank them. Go Graduates...we are proud of those of you who stand for life!
