They forgot to mention snotty elitists students.....

I used to live in IN and have never met such arrogant people as ND students/grads.....

I know there are has to be some decent ND grads but I never met them and neither did anyone else I knew....

[manc]

it;s the same for most students to day,

Here we have a very small school and most of these snotty nosed brats walk around this town thinking they are owed something because they were born

they come here to this town and then moan about the confederate flags or how conservative it is,. well fine then piss off

[manc]

maybe if students had to pay tax where they went to school they would understand life is not free earlier in age

Then you haven't met my highly-decorated WWII father, Sir, who left a small Southern town to go to Notre Dame, fought for YOU in Germany, risking his life by using himself as a decoy for his men when discovererd on a reconnaissance mission by the Germans, earning a silver medal to add to his purple heart and several other honors, and returned to Notre Dame to finish his degree, of which he is naturally very, very proud. They don't have basket weaving. They hold chapel and mass in every dormitory, every day. They don't redshirt their football players and their fans don't paint profanities on their cars about other teams like the fans of many schools I can think of. And so, Sir, I suggest you wash your mouth out with soap. Yes, my father is "elite". That is a compliment, not anything to be ashamed of. He, like so many Notre Dame men (and women) is the cream of the crop. By and large, Notre Dame people are some of the finest people I know. Did I go there? No. Sadly, I couldn't get in. But, while I am of a mind to tell you just where to go, I am too much of a Christian to say it. Why? Because I was reared by a Notre Dame man. Good day, Sir.

I call BS. ND students and grads are some of the finest people I’ve met. They are mostly (two parent) upper middle class and have learned manners. The only other campus (I’ve been on & I’ve been on many) with comparable students is the Franciscan University Steubenville.

“ask any IU or Purdue fan about the nastiness of their fans during the games.”

It’s true they will arrest loud obnoxious drunks. Those people who were nasty to your IU and Purdue friends weren’t fans, they were police.
