• Met with Notre Dame Students to learn about their vision and ideas for Notre Dame's The Shirt 2016. A committee of students works all year to produce a shirt that The Notre Dame Nation can take pride in wearing throughout the football season. Dozens of iterations are created before the final design is chosen.
Half of the proceeds from The Shirt go to The Shirt Charity, which helps students afford unexpected medical expenses. Remaining revenue is used to fund student clubs, organizations and the Rector Fun, which allows all students to have the full Notre Dame experience.
Within Notre Dame Stadium, The Shirt can be seen as a common thread uniting not only the students, but all fans in one solid color. A sea of same-colored Shirts gives the opposing team a "twelfth man" to fear.
