Karamo Brown of ‘Queer Eye’ shares hope and handshakes

Margaret McGreevy | Friday, November 30, 2018

Karamo Brown wanted to be a dancer. His high school guidance counselor said no, his parents quashed the idea quickly and his friends scoffed. Or, in his words: “Shade. Everywhere.” In an attempt to pursue a “real career,” he became a social worker. He loved the work, despite the difficulties and low pay, which was

Scene Selections: New Singles

Ryan Israel, Margaret McGreevy, Martin Kennedy and Nora McGreevy | Thursday, November 1, 2018

Scene Selections: Fall Picks

Margaret McGreevy, Ryan Israel and Sarah Kikel | Friday, September 28, 2018

Ah, yes, fall — or autumn if you’re a snob — a season filled with crisp air, all things pumpkin, spooky feats, sweet treats and sick beats. A time when walking across campus doesn’t feel like a punishment best suited for one of Dante’s many rings of the inferno, but rather a treat. A season

Scene in South Bend: Crooked Ewe Brewery and Ale House

Nora McGreevy and Margaret McGreevy | Friday, September 14, 2018

Crooked Ewe’s logo — the face of a Scottish blackface sheep, with bright red eyes and menacing horns — has provoked more than a few questions from customers, executive chef Alain Helfrich says. Usually, the question falls along the lines of, “Don’t only male sheep have horns?” As it turns out, in this particular species, both male

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds.
