Walk the Walk Week

This year marks the seventh annual campus-wide observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Walk the Walk Week, a week-long series of University- and department-sponsored events designed to help us consider how we — both individually and collectively — might take an active role in making Notre Dame even more welcoming and inclusive. A student panel discussion, "Walk the Walk: Building the 'Beloved Community' at Notre Dame," and the annual Candlelight Prayer Service will kick off the week today, Jan 18.
