Approximately 150 protesters convened at the intersection of East Angela Blvd. and Notre Dame Ave. Sunday afternoon, urging the University to divest from military contractors and advocate more forcefully for a ceasefire in Gaza.

The 2023-2024 Notre Dame football season was filled with some encouraging performances, tempered by plenty of frustrating lows. Though the Irish notched one more win than last year’s 9-4 season, it felt like a familiar, bumpy roller coaster ride for head coach Marcus Freeman’s sophomore season with a 10-3 record and lack of a playoff run. Despite an easier opening slate of games compared to last year, the team’s schedule soon toughened up. Four straight primetime matchups with five opponents finishing in the top 25 took a toll, leading to inconsistent play.

The Observer piece on the student arrests on Thursday night painted the administration in a bad light. One might conclude from reading the coverage that the “rain-soaked summit that preceded the arrest of peaceful student protestors was a failure. I suggest a different way to interpret what transpired. Thursday gives us a glimpse into what potentially sets Notre Dame apart as a distinctively Catholic institution of higher learning.
After the Notre Dame men’s lacrosse team concluded its regular season with a hard-fought victory over No. 5-ranked Virginia, they played the Cavaliers again in the ACC Tournament semifinal. The second time around was not as hard-fought. It was utter dominance from the Irish from start to finish in undoubtedly their most impressive win of the season, one that sent a message to the rest of the nation, and especially to the winner of the Duke-Syracuse game on the other side of the tournament bracket.
Editor‘s Note: 17 pro-Palestinian protestors were arrested Thursday night. You can read our coverage of the demonstration here.
For Notre Dame women’s basketball head coach Niele Ivey, the 2023-2024 season was a testament to the thousands of hours of hard work put into her program. For many fans, the 2023-2024 season was a surprise. Although the Irish returned key starters like senior forward Maddy Westbeld and junior guard Sonia Citron, the rest of the roster was a bit of a question mark. At guard, the Irish were effectively swapping out junior Olivia Miles with freshman Hannah Hidalgo, a talented — but inexperienced — young guard who plays at a significantly different pace than Miles. Of course, the Irish also battled the continuous question of Miles’ potential presence. Would she return? If so, when, and what impact would that have on Hidalgo’s play? Ultimately, that question is still to be answered. Miles sat out the entirety of the year, leaving Hidalgo to lead the way.

The women’s team also underwent significant growth compared to past years, marking a substantial stride in the right direction of becoming a top-tier program.

In a May 1 interview with President Jenkins in The Observer, he commented on a letter he wrote to the Chicago Tribune in December 2022 about an editorial Dr. Susan Ostermann and I wrote in our capacity as scholars and experts in the Keough School on government regulation and reproductive health policy. The Observer, President Jenkins and many of my colleagues at Notre Dame have focused on this in relationship to academic freedom. But what hurt and distressed me the most was not the violation of my academic freedom. It was President Jenkins’s blatant disregard for the safety of me and my family, his unwillingness to communicate with me or respond to any of my safety concerns, and his failure to recognize that his actions invited and exposed me to more abuse and harassment.
