"Architecturally, the school has a Catholic character. Atop the Main Building's gold dome is a golden statue of the Virgin Mary. Immediately in front of the Main Building and facing it, is a copper statue of Christ with arms upraised with the legend "Venite Ad Me Omnes". Next to the Main Building is the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. Immediately behind the basilica is the Grotto, a Marian place of prayer and reflection. It is a replica of the grotto at Lourdes, France where the Virgin Mary reputedly appeared to Saint Bernadette Soubirous in 1858.

"As at most other universities, Notre Dame's students run a number of news media outlets. The nine student-run outlets include three newspapers, both a radio and television station, and several magazines and journals. Begun as a one-page journal in September 1876, the Scholastic magazine is issued twice monthly and claims to be the oldest continuous collegiate publication in the United States. The other magazine, The Juggler, is released twice a year and focuses on student literature and artwork. The Dome yearbook is published annually. The newspapers have varying publication interests, with The Observer published daily and mainly reporting university and other news, and staffed by students from both Notre Dame and Saint Mary's College. Unlike Scholastic and The Dome, The Observer is an independent publication and does not have a faculty advisor or any editorial oversight from the University. In 1987, when some students believed that The Observer began to show a conservative bias, a liberal newspaper, Common Sense was published. Likewise, in 2003, when other students believed that the paper showed a liberal bias, the conservative paper Irish Rover went into production. Neither paper is published as often as The Observer; however, all three are distributed to all students. Finally, in Spring 2008 an undergraduate journal for political science research, Beyond Politics, made its debut."

"Father Joseph Carrier, C.S.C. was Director of the Science Museum and the Library and Professor of Chemistry and Physics until 1874. Carrier taught that scientific research and its promise for progress were not antagonistic to the ideals of intellectual and moral culture endorsed by the Church. One of Carrier's students was Father John Augustine Zahm (1851–1921) who was made Professor and Co-Director of the Science Department at age 23 and by 1900 was a nationally prominent scientist and naturalist. Zahm was active in the Catholic Summer School movement, which introduced Catholic laity to contemporary intellectual issues. His book Evolution and Dogma (1896) defended certain aspects of evolutionary theory as true, and argued, moreover, that even the great Church teachers Thomas Aquinas and Augustine taught something like it. The intervention of Irish American Catholics in Rome prevented Zahm's censure by the Vatican. In 1913, Zahm and former President Theodore Roosevelt embarked on a major expedition through the Amazon."

"The Lobund Institute grew out of pioneering research in germ-free-life which began in 1928. This area of research originated in a question posed by Pasteur as to whether animal life was possible without bacteria. Though others had taken up this idea, their research was short lived and inconclusive. Lobund was the first research organization to answer definitively, that such life is possible and that it can be prolonged through generations. But the objective was not merely to answer Pasteur's question but also to produce the germ free animal as a new tool for biological and medical research. This objective was reached and for years Lobund was a unique center for the study and production of germ free animals and for their use in biological and medical investigations. Today the work has spread to other universities. In the beginning it was under the Department of Biology and a program leading to the master's degree accompanied the research program. In the 1940s Lobund achieved independent status as a purely research organization and in 1950 was raised to the status of an Institute. In 1958 it was brought back into the Department of Biology as integral part of that department, but with its own program leading to the degree of PhD in Gnotobiotics."

Because of the religious affiliation of the university, all residence halls are single-sex, with 15 male dorms and 14 female dorms. The university maintains a visiting policy (known as parietal hours) for those students who live in dormitories, specifying times when members of the opposite sex are allowed to visit other students' dorm rooms; however, all residence halls have 24-hour social spaces for students regardless of gender. Many residence halls have at least one nun and/or priest as a resident. There are no traditional social fraternities or sororities at the university, but a majority of students live in the same residence hall for all four years. Some intramural sports are based on residence hall teams, where the university offers the only non-military academy program of full-contact intramural American football.

"In 1919 Father James Burns became president of Notre Dame, and in three years he produced an academic revolution that brought the school up to national standards by adopting the elective system and moving away from the university's traditional scholastic and classical emphasis.

"One of the main driving forces in the growth of the University was its football team, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Knute Rockne became head coach in 1918.

During his 13 years the Irish won three national championships, had five undefeated seasons, won the Rose Bowl in 1925, and produced players such as George Gipp and the "Four Horsemen". Knute Rockne has the highest winning percentage (.881) in NCAA Division I/FBS football history. Rockne's offenses employed the Notre Dame Box and his defenses ran a 7–2–2 scheme.

Dataset Card for XGLUE

Dataset Summary

XGLUE is a new benchmark dataset to evaluate the performance of cross-lingual pre-trained models with respect to cross-lingual natural language understanding and generation.

The training data of each task is in English while the validation and test data is present in multiple different languages. The following table shows which languages are present as validation and test data for each config.

Available Languages for Test and Validation Data

Therefore, for each config, a cross-lingual pre-trained model should be fine-tuned on the English training data, and evaluated on for all languages.

Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

The XGLUE leaderboard can be found on the homepage and consits of a XGLUE-Understanding Score (the average of the tasks ner, pos, mlqa, nc, xnli, paws-x, qadsm, wpr, qam) and a XGLUE-Generation Score (the average of the tasks qg, ntg).

Languages

For all tasks (configurations), the "train" split is in English (en).

For each task, the "validation" and "test" splits are present in these languages:

  • ner: en, de, es, nl
  • pos: en, de, es, nl, bg, el, fr, pl, tr, vi, zh, ur, hi, it, ar, ru, th
  • mlqa: en, de, ar, es, hi, vi, zh

  "news_body": "Check out this vintage Willys Pickup! As they say, the devil is in the details, and it's not every day you see such attention paid to every last area of a restoration like with this 1961 Willys Pickup . Already the Pickup has a unique look that shares some styling with the Jeep, plus some original touches you don't get anywhere else. It's a classy way to show up to any event, all thanks to Hollywood Motors . A burgundy paint job contrasts with white lower panels and the roof. Plenty of tasteful chrome details grace the exterior, including the bumpers, headlight bezels, crossmembers on the grille, hood latches, taillight bezels, exhaust finisher, tailgate hinges, etc. Steel wheels painted white and chrome hubs are a tasteful addition. Beautiful oak side steps and bed strips add a touch of craftsmanship to this ride. This truck is of real showroom quality, thanks to the astoundingly detailed restoration work performed on it, making this Willys Pickup a fierce contender for best of show. Under that beautiful hood is a 225 Buick V6 engine mated to a three-speed manual transmission, so you enjoy an ideal level of control. Four wheel drive is functional, making it that much more utilitarian and downright cool. The tires are new, so you can enjoy a lot of life out of them, while the wheels and hubs are in great condition. Just in case, a fifth wheel with a tire and a side mount are included. Just as important, this Pickup runs smoothly, so you can go cruising or even hit the open road if you're interested in participating in some classic rallies. You might associate Willys with the famous Jeep CJ, but the automaker did produce a fair amount of trucks. The Pickup is quite the unique example, thanks to distinct styling that really turns heads, making it a favorite at quite a few shows.
