University of Notre Dame Summary
The University of Notre Dame IPA: is a Roman Catholic institution located in Notre Dame, Indiana, immediately northeast of South Bend, Indiana, United States. The original and official name of the school is The University of Notre Dame du Lac (the university of Our Lady of the Lake). The Indiana General Assembly granted the school its charter on January 15, 1844, under the name University of Notre Dame du Lac. Three of the priest fellows are always the current university president, the provincial superior of the Indiana Province of the Congregation of Holy Cross, and the local superior of the congregation at Notre Dame. The board meets tri-annually and is responsible for electing the officers of the university as well as exercising the rest of the corporate powers of the university. The university president is responsible for the overall administration of the university and is ultimately responsible for the hiring of faculty and staff. According to the Bylaws and Academic Articles of the university, the university faculty are grouped into colleges, schools, institutes, and the library system. The university’s first academic curriculum was modeled after the Jesuit ratio studiorum from Saint Louis University. Notre Dame Law School is the body of law scholars at the university. Notre Dame was the first Roman Catholic university in the United States to have a law program, which was started in 1869 and has consistently ranked among the top 25 law schools in the nation over the past decade according to US News and World Report. The school also offers graduate studies leading to the Master of Architecture Many of the faculty of the university participate in one or more of the university’s 84 interdisciplinary research institutes and centers. The library faculty of the university are divided into two groups: the University Library system and the Kresge Law Library. According to the university’s academic code, students are classified as either undergraduate students, graduate students, or two kinds of professional students: law students or graduate business students. Founded in 1918, the Graduate School is a body whose administrators coordinate master and doctoral studies in the colleges of the university and the School of Architecture. Previously, and especially during the Knute Rockne football era, Notre Dame had several unofficial nicknames—among them the “Rovers” and the “Ramblers,” because of those teams’ propensity to travel the nation to play its football contests, such as at the University of Southern California, long before such national travel became the collegiate norm. Though the Irish regiments and Kilmer were well-known, particularly in the urban ethnic community, during the era between the Civil War and World War II, Notre Dame’s claim to the nickname is justified since its third president was a famous Irish Brigade chaplain whose ministrations at Gettysburg are commemorated in the “Absolution Under Fire,” part of Notre Dame’s permanent art collection. Although Notre Dame alumnus Francis Wallace popularized it in his New York Daily News columns in the 1920s with respect to the university, as early as the Civil War Father Corby and the Irish Brigade of the Union Army had been dubbed “The Fighting Irish.” Some notable football greats are Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana, Hall of Fame and Heisman Trophy winning running back Paul Hornung, as well as future Hall of Famers such as wide receiver Tim Brown (the last member of the Fighting Irish to win the Heisman Trophy) and running back Jerome Bettis.
