Monk's Reflections
"I am excited to have this opportunity to share some of my experiences and considered reflections. . . . I hope to provide some sense of what the world looks like from my desk as the president of Notre Dame." --Father Edward Malloy The book falls into three parts: "The University President," in which Father Malloy explains the president's role; "Academia and the Life of the Mind," in which he examines the practices of teaching and scholarship in the contemporary university setting; and "The Collegiate World," in which he comments on the nonacademic facets of college life, including athletics, residentiality, and religion. Father Malloy writes in a warm, personable tone, often touching on his own life experiences. He is not afraid to voice strong opinions, but he does so in a compassionate manner that speaks well of him both as a priest and a president, and that makes for an eminently readable book. Notre Dame alumni are among the most dedicated and loyal in America, and will enjoy reading about Father Malloy's experiences.

Loyal Sons and Daughters
In 1972, after 125 years of all-male education, the University of Notre Dame went coed. These pages collect the memoriesJean Lenz, O.S.F., rectress of the all-female dormitory Farley Hall during that first year when loyal daughters joined the loyal sons of Notre Dame. Loyal Sons and Daughters gives readers a glimpse of what life was like for that first class of women, and for the men who welcomed them. It was a pivotal time for a campus so steeped in tradition. Sister Lenz was right in the middle of it all as the daughters of Notre Dame wrote new stories at the country's most storied Catholic university. More than a quarter century later, she heeded the urging of fellow Golden Domers--"get these stories into print, otherwise they will all be lost."
Culture and Commitment
On June 1 1992, Edward A. Malloy, CSC, began his second term as president of the University of Notre Dame. Culture and Commitment is a collection of public addresses given during his first term, 1987-1991. During these years, Malloy has used the opportunity afforded him by his position to discuss at length both the state of higher education today, as well as which directions it should take in the future. As president of Notre Dame, he brings experience and insight to bear on current issues affecting higher education in general, and Catholic higher education in particular. Malloy addresses the need to raise awareness of moral consideration in preparing students for the professions, and the need to promote programmes directed toward increasing student involvement in social justice.
