A beautiful reflection by a Notre Dame student

As MOJ readers probably know, a Notre Dame student died tragically in an accident last week.  This reflection, by a fellow student, appeared in the student paper today and is, I think, beautiful.

Sometimes, it seems that Notre Dame is noted in the press – especially the Catholic press – primarily when its football team lays an egg, when it is the site of one intra-Catholic fight or another, or when it acts in a way that seems inconsistent, in one way or another, with what the one taking note thinks Notre Dame “ought” to be. 

It would be great, though, if this letter got appropriate attention among Catholics across the “spectrum”.
