Everyday is my day!
Today is the Feast of St. Edward the Confessor, King of England and patron saint of the Founder... Fr. Edward Sorin, CSC. Since its inception, the University has celebrated this day as "Founder's Day." Back in the day, students had the day off from classes, "iced cream" was served, games were played, and St. Edward's residents sent "congratulatory" cards to Fr. Sorin. Matter of fact, one lucky resident was selected to recite a poem, especially penned for this auspicious day, to Fr. Sorin! On this special day, Fr. Ralph, Rector of St. Edward's Hall, said, "We may not get the day off as they did in the past, but nevertheless, I am taking it off!"
Also to note...
It was announced today that John Wetzel '16 is the 2016-2017 inductee into the Order of Gentlemen, an award given for service to Hall and King.
Congratulations John!
