60%?!

ND had a 60% return on their endowment investment this year??? Good Lord. This article raises two big points for me: A) Where the hell does all this money go? Hey Monk, tell me again about that “financial crisis” you predict for the next few years? and B) We’re making all this money on venture capital???. That thought frightens the hell out of me (and probably every other alum in the IT industry).

Sniff.

Ohmygosh! Bob Davie wrote a letter to the student body asking them to e-mail a young boy named Scott Delgadillo with leukemia. Scott is a lifelong ND fan who attended the Purdue game with the Make-a-Wish Foundation. Davie’s been in contact with the family for some time, and he says: “I know that with the attitude this extraordinary young man possesses, along with our prayers, he will win this battle.” Please consider dropping Scott a line and telling him the Notre Dame family is behind him all the way.
