Cheering on our football and basketball teams is my favorite part about ND, as that is when you can truly feel the Notre Dame Family come together, which is a very special feeling.

I am from Atlanta, Georgia and love watching Notre Dame football in my spare time. I have enjoyed playing interhall sports during my time at Notre Dame and am looking forward to getting back on the football field this fall after missing last year with a torn ACL.

I am from Toledo, Ohio. At ND, besides working at ND Listens, I am also an Admissions Tour Guide, President of my hall (go purple weasels!), and a member of almost all of our interhall sports teams - which is impressive for how non-athletic I am! I know I have only been here a year, but ND has already given me so many great memories. My favorite by far though is the Michigan game last year. It was my first ND football game in the student section and it was amazing to say the least.

Hi, I'm Mary Kate from Stuart, Florida. I'm excited to be a Senior Manager at ND Listens and continue connecting with our Notre Dame family around the world. Outside of ND Listens, I enjoy fighting for girls' education in Uganda through the Baraka Bouts boxing club. Being a founding resident of Flaherty Hall has been one of the most rewarding parts of my Notre Dame experience. We've created a vibrant and supportive community in just three years and getting to serve as the dorm's Vice President last Fall is one of my favorite memories. I've loved talking with so many parents, alumni and friends of Notre Dame throughout my time at ND Listens and am so grateful to be a part of this incredible staff!

My hometown is Ebensburg, PA. Here on campus, I'm very involved in the various chemical engineering clubs, and did two semesters of research. I love tutoring at a local elementary school with my dorm and playing intramural sports with my friends. My favorite ND memory was during Welcome Weekend freshman year, they told us if we ever get lost, Mary's hand (on the Dome) points to McGlinn, so we were to "follow Mary home." It was the first time on campus I felt I would find a home here.

Hi everyone! I am originally from Covington, Kentucky where I grew up surrounded by family and friends. Here on campus one of my first and favorite communities to be a part of on campus is the Balfour-Hesburgh Scholars Program.

I've been able to spend two summers studying abroad in London and South Africa!

I am originally from Cumming, GA, right outside of Atlanta. At ND, I enjoy competing on the Women's Club Soccer Team, volunteering with Camp Kesem, and working with the engineering club, EnableND. One of my favorite Notre Dame memories was studying abroad during the summer before my sophomore year in London with the College of Engineering, and I cannot wait to hopefully go abroad in the spring. However, in my opinion, the best place to be is on campus in the fall on a Saturday for a home football game! Go Irish!

I used to live in Westchester New York, and now I call Pasquerilla West my home under the dome. I am an active member of the Notre Dame Symphonic Orchestra, and I hope to join other clubs such as kickboxing club, debate club, and the pre-professional club. Outside my extracurriculars, my favorite Notre Dame memory- as of now- was learning the purple weasel dance and cheering for my dorm during welcome weekend.

I live in Powell, OH (a suburb of Columbus) and my favorite thing about my hometown is that I live right next to the nation's second best zoo (which has a waterpark attached). While I am at Notre Dame, I love being active in my dorm and various clubs on campus including SIBC. My favorite Notre Dame memory was my first football game as a student. My dad is an alumnus so I had seen the student section from the outside for so many years, but it was very exciting for me to finally get to be there and see us beat Michigan.

Originally from Minooka, Illinois, I spend the majority of my time at Notre Dame doing work in the various coffee shops around campus. But when I'm not studying, you can find me serving as the treasurer of Pasquerilla West or hanging out with my section. My favorite memory of Notre Dame is the first home game I ever attended versus Michigan, where we won 24 - 17. Go Irish!

I grew up in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, but my dad lives in Cheyenne, Wyoming. I split my time between both places and I consider myself very lucky to have grown up in two beautiful states! I am on the club lacrosse team here at Notre Dame and I also love going for runs around the lakes. My favorite Notre Dame memory was walking into Alumni and seeing my dad's name on a bookstore basketball trophy from when he and his team won the championship when he was an undergraduate student at Notre Dame. It was a really special moment for me and I love feeling connected to my family on campus, especially because they live so far away!

My favorite part about Notre Dame is getting to play dorm sports. Growing up with 4 brothers I was always watching them play football. Now, on my dorm flag football team, I finally get to play too, and I even play the same position that they all did. The only thing that would make it better is two championship wins, a National Championship for the Fighting Irish and a RecSports championship for Lyons Hall’s flag team.

My name is Meg and I’m a junior at Notre Dame studying graphic design. I was born and raised in South Bend and have grown up in a big ND family.

Currently, I am involved in SIBC, have a job at ND Listens, and plan to add a second major in either political science or PLS. For now, my favorite memory at Notre Dame was the Friday after Welcome Week. I went out with my friends and got to meet so many new people. In the early morning hours, we sat on a bench and stared at the dome in silence.

I was born and raised in Queens, New York to two Irish-born parents and have lived there my entire life with my five siblings.

I love being part of the ND Listens Team because ND is such an amazing place that has touched the hearts of so many people. I look forward to going to work and hearing the stories of friends and alum of the University.

Outside of ND Listens, I'm involved with Slice of Life Tutoring, Access ABLE, Brothers Keepers, and a counselor at Camp Sharing Meadows.

My name is Julia Tihansky and I am a sophomore studying chemical engineering living in Pasquerilla East (go pyros!!), but I am originally from Scranton, Pennsylvania. My favorite part of Notre Dame is the sense of community and the fact that the friends I have made have become my family. A few weeks ago I was at the volleyball game watching my friend play, and it started down pouring on the walk home. So what did we do? Run through Stonehenge since we were already soaked. I'll never forget it.

Just a week ago some friends and I were taking pictures in front of the dome, and a couple was rollerskating around God Quad with their puppy when they rolled up and offered their dog for our photoshoot - that probably wouldn't happen anywhere else, and I'm so happy be at Notre Dame!

So many of my favorite memories are random moments in the halls of that building or at flag football practices, and I really found my best friends here, too. If I'm not in Cav, you can find me soaking up the nice weather on the quads (before the permacloud comes) or in NDH eating way too much food. I'm also the treasurer for the Junior Class Council, work for the admissions office, and will always encourage people to get involved with the Center for Social Concerns.

I am from the western suburbs of Chicago and have wanted to attend Notre Dame ever since I was a little girl. I love reading, writing, music and rice crispies from the dining halls.

In my free time I love running around the lakes, drinking iced coffee, and playing flag football with the Farley girls.

My name is Maggie and I’m from Ormond Beach, FL. I love being active and outside as much as possible in addition to spending time with my family.

I currently enjoy playing on my Dorm's interhall sports teams, helping out with hall government, doing research through the Notre Dame Initiative for Global Development, and taking part in a few civil engineering extracurriculars. My favorite thing about ND is the uniquely amazing people, and my favorite memory is listening to music with my section-mates (simple, yes I know).

I'm from Hillsborough, CA which is right outside San Francisco. I am apart of the women's club water polo team here at Notre Dame which finished 10th in the nation last year! I love Warriors basketball and ND football, and I will never forget when Notre Dame destroyed USC in 2017.

On campus, I’m involved in research, I give campus tours, I work with communications in my dorm, and, of course, I work at ND Listens. I studied abroad in Rome the summer after my freshman year and am studying in London currently, so unfortunately I’m missing football season, though it’s (somehow) worth it.
