From our DC team to the @NotreDame family everywhere, we wish you a joyful and blessed holiday season! 🎄✨ Thank you for being part of this special community. We look forward to continuing our impactful work together in the year ahead!

From South Bend to SCOTUS ☘️⚖️ @NDLaw Profs Christian Burset and Rev. Patrick Reidy, C.S.C., joined 70+ alumni at our DC office to reflect on their paths from @NotreDame to Supreme Court clerkships and lessons from the Court.

As we finish the semester, we pass along a Christmas blessing from Father Bob and music from our Advent Lessons and Carols in the Basilica of the Sacred Heart: "May the love of Christ fill you with hope, courage, and joy this Christmas and always."

Grateful to serve our DC community this holiday season 🎄🤍 We loved volunteering at @BreadfortheCity with colleagues from @KeoughGlobalND Washington Office, supporting their mission to provide neighbors with food, care, and resources while building stronger communities.

“@notredame helped me understand that I could become both a scientist and policy expert, and that it was important to develop both of those strengths in my formal education and beyond.” Read Eve’s story: washingtonoffice.nd.edu/news-events/ne…

When research doesn’t reach policymakers, opportunities to improve lives can be lost. Eve Granatosky, Ph.D. ’18, is helping change that. A biochemist turned policy professional at @LewisBurkeLLC, Eve helps researchers share the impact of their work with decision-makers in DC.

“That’s what bridge-building is,” Austin says. “Understanding each other, respecting each other, and firmly believing that we all want the best for the future–we just hold different ideas on how to get there.” Read Austin’s story: washingtonoffice.nd.edu/news-events/ne…

Austin Matheny-Kawesch ’18 builds bridges in climate policy at the @EnvDefenseFund by focusing on finding common ground. The values that drew him to @NotreDame–compassion, dignity, and respect–continue to guide his work in environmental advocacy. ☘️ youtu.be/E7plP92nGgU?si…
