10 ways to deal with parietals

Cristina Interiano | Friday, November 22, 2019

In light of recent protests against parietals and controversy that has surrounded this gender-segregating policy, I thought it would be appropriate to provide a few solutions for heterosexual students who want some extra private time with individuals from the opposite sex (and for some reason do not have extra off-campus apartments). You know, for the

How to save your soul by doing nothing 

Cristina Interiano | Thursday, October 3, 2019

The title of this column is incredibly misleading, but ultimately, I want to share two ideas I came across recently that have shaped my perspective on how to live and spend my time. The first one I heard in a podcast called “The Fr. Mike Schmitz Catholic Podcast” where Fr. Mike discusses different life and

For all future ‘abroad-ers’

Cristina Interiano | Tuesday, February 5, 2019

“Abroad changes you.” “I’m definitely more sophisticated now.” Probably every non-abroad student is tired of hearing this from their friends coming from Rome, London, Dublin, Australia or wherever they went to get ‘cultured.’ I guess I could fit into that category as well. I am sure I went home suddenly feeling Italian and correcting my

Tackling the ‘globalization of indifference’

Cristina Interiano | Wednesday, March 1, 2017

I have grown up in country where I get to wake up to the view of the majestic San Salvador volcano, but one where the norm is to eat my cereal next to a “Massacre of Five” newspaper headline; where it’s too risky to sit in a car without windows up and locked. Salvadorans —

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds. A men’s boxing tournament that benefits the Holy Cross Mission in Bangladesh, Bengal Bouts seems to perfectly combine two integral aspects of Notre Dame’s identity: a passion for sports and a commitment to social impact.

That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.
