1) A formerly great, formerly Roman Catholic university. Its board of Trustees decided at the turn of the millenium that it was more important to climb up the rankings at USNWR than to maintain its distinctive mission and identity. As a result of its rapid secularization, it climbed from #18 to #18.
2) A college that can afford to sacrifice its Catholic character, due to the large number of young Catholics who are nevertheless anxious to spend four years and $200K on the experience of living in the empty space between Gary and Toledo.
3) The place where Rev. John Jenkins walks with a cell-phone on his ear so he can pretend to be in the middle of a conversation. This enables him to cross any quad (even South) without having to talk to actual people.
4) A Catholic-college-based theme park in the Upper Midwest, featuring 'Touchdown Jesus,' 'Fair Catch Corby,' 'Play-Action Pass Pope Cletus,' and 'Illegal Formation Ss. Boris and Gleb.' No one knows why.
5) Two lakes an hour's drive east of Gary.
6) A reflecting pond in front of a library with practically no windows and totally depressing study carrels sporting graffiti such as "Re-Elect President Hoover" and "Bring this Rail-Road Contraption to South Bend!"
7) A mythical location, found on no known map, where Zahmbies urinate on other people's dorms, and the upper-administration don WWI-era German infantry helmets and stand in St. Mary's Lake on alternate Tuesdays in order to improve the USNWR standing.
Look, Dunstan! Isn't that Fr. Jenkins standing in a lake with a pointy helmet? We must be at Notre Dame!
Great, Akhbar! I can't wait to see 'Illegal Formation Ss. Boris and Gleb.'

A overrated School in South Bend, Indiana, that was notable for it's Football Team. It has won 11 National Championships, although the most recent in 1988 meaning it's current students were only 2 or 3 when it last occurred. It brags of it's Heisman Trophy Winners, but most of them were awarded twenty years before you were born.
It claims to be better then Boston College, but unfortunately, they have not beaten them since 2000.
Notre Dame Fan: Yeah, we have 11 Championships
BC Fan: But you wore leather helmets the last time you won one.
How do you keep a Notre Dame Fan off your lawn?
By paying him for the Pizza.

The most overrated college football program in the county. Haven't won a national championship since 1988, and hasn't seen much success in recent years. Notre Dame uses their past success to gain a contract with NBC. Notre Dame should join the Big Ten.
Notre Dame is overrated. Ohio State would beat them by 3 touchdowns. Ohio State is the premeir Midwest College Football Program. Notre Dame was good, but Ohio State has surpssed them. The only reasons Notre Dame won't join the Big Ten is because of NBC and they would get killed against Ohio State.

Adjective, French.
1 Loosely translates as 'not fire resistant'.

Person 1: Did you see that cathedral on fire in France?
Person 2: Notre-Dame

An Irish-Catholic University in South Bend Indiana aptly named after a French Cathedral. Known for its pompous student body and washed up football team, its graduates convince themselves that everyone wants to be like them, when in reality, no one does. Its inflated ego is dwarfed only by the stink of the city which surrounds it.
Remember how that salesman from Notre Dame wouldn't stop talking about how great his school was? It took him forever just to realize that no one was even listening to him in the first place.

A university located in South Bend, IN.
Their football team lost to Florida State in the Champs Sports Bowl. Their fans are delusional and think their football team is good when they really suck. The luck of the irish left them years ago.

A second-rate Catholic University in the middle of nowhere known for it's football team, not its academics. It is a school that is typically reserved for young Catholics who wanted to go to school in Boston, DC, or Philadelphia, but could not gain admission to Boston College, Georgetown, or Villanova.
Son: I would like to go to BC or Georgetown, but I don't have the academic credentials to get in.
Mother: You could always try that Notre Dame place.
Son: Nah, I think I will just go to the local community college.
