Pick up Artist - Will you be my Rock of Love?

Hey hey ND, be on the lookout for the Pick Up Artist in your classes, in the Dining Halls, and on the quad. From Monday through Friday keep a sharp eye out because if you find the rock of love you get a super cool prize! BUT…. we are Notre Dame students, just finding the Pick Up Artist is for amateurs so remember to ask Pick Up Artist the question of the day found in your beautiful AnTostal program.

Top 5

Top Five Things We’re “Next”-ing From This Year 5. We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Ugg Boots & Mini Skirts/Shorts, there is no reason & no sea son for this look. 4. Insurance commercials. There are only so many ways to dress up a gecko or a caveman. 3. The Recession. Shop ‘til you drop and spend like it’s the trend – we didn’t make the mess, but lets fix it. 2. Facebook application invites. If we wanted to be in a fake Mob family we would move to Hollywood & hang out with Al Pacino. So stop it or you’ll be say ing hello to my little friend. 1.Being too cool for school… or graduation, regardless of the speaker.

Deal or No Deal?

Bromances -Deal. There really is nothing cuter than 25 dorm bros staying in and playing some serious Halo… on a Friday night.

WEEK LONG EVENTS

Welcome to Notre Dame’s 42nd AnTostal! We are ecstatic to bring the campus a week of celebration, fun and good times! This year we are making it above and beyond anyone’s wildest expectations! For those of you not in the know about this historic and wonderful program, this phenomenal week began in 1967 as a way to bring the campus together one last time before finals and summer break. Since then, it has grown and become one of the biggest events of the spring semester. Following the tradition of years past, this week will bring epic fun, so let the good times roll from April 20 – 25th and help send the semester out in style! This year we are doing everything with a little extra flair. With tons of events to choose from, there will definitely be something for everyone! From the signature events of the dorms to all of the stellar programs put on by your favorite SUBbers, this week is sure to be the best thing Spring has ever seen! So be sure to thank the Irish for all the luck you are about to have! Keeping it true to American pop culture, the theme of this year’s AnTostal is “True Life: I’m a Domer.” Since spring is everyone’s reality check into the start of summer, we thought it would only be right to have this year be reality TV themed! This program is designed to keep your pop culture knowledge flowing and a little insider look at why this week is bound to be your best at ND! Whether you want to come see someone find their “rock of love” or see if they have what it takes to be ND’s best dancer, this week is sure not to disappoint! So keep your eyes peeled for the pick up artist and other reminders of why AnTostal is really “spring’s reality check!” The tradition that is AnTostal is ours to create and continue so help us keep it going! AnTostal is Gaelic for “festival” so get festive, get out of the dorms and onto the quad to celebrate Spring and the end of the year with us!
