An unexpectedly rewarding experience

Keri O'Mara | Friday, May 15, 2015

While studying in Dublin during the fall of junior year, I received an e-mail from the Graphics Editor at The Observer, expressing her interest in my joining the graphics team for the paper. I knew people that had worked at the paper, in that mysterious room in the underbelly of South Dining Hall, but still

Dads: the new black

Keri O'Mara | Tuesday, January 20, 2015

Keri O'Mara | Tuesday, September 23, 2014

At first glance, my past weekend was no different than an average college weekend. I got together with friends, listened to excessive amounts of Missy Elliot and ordered some pizza.

Puppies and prodegies

Keri O'Mara | Thursday, February 27, 2014

Let’s talk about Air Bud. Most of us are familiar with the ‘90s film that documents the unexpectedly impressive athletic abilities of America’s most loveable Golden-Labrador mix and the charming human-animal friendship that comes along the way. Seems harmless, right? Not quite. I’ve spent an embarrassing amount of time this semester considering Air Bud through
