I know I’m not alone when I say, “Yeah I know that band. I was ‘emo’ in middle school.” The All-American Rejects are the prime example of this genre. From blasting “Gives You Hell” after arguments with my parents over eyeliner to listening to “Move Along” through corded headphones while crying over a two week-long relationship, The All-American Rejects were a staple of awkward preteen years for myself and so many other angsty children of Generation Z.

As the academic year draws to a close, most students never want to read anything again, but with more free time, they'll be able to read fiction. So, with summer upon us, here are my top recommendations for fun summer reading.
As tensions run high and finals loom on the horizon, some students will begin to reach their breaking point. Allow me to speak of something many of us find deeply paradoxically frustrating, but may not quite have the words for: that is how unsatisfying simple answers are. Still, I believe it may be helpful, in its own way, for us to be fully aware of its simplistic nature.
A major transfer of power became official last month when former NBC Sports chairman Pete Bevacqua officially took over as Notre Dame’s athletic director. The University announced last summer that Bevacqua would succeed Jack Swarbrick, who took over the role in July 2008, with Bevacqua working under Swarbrick throughout the academic year to get a feel for the role.

Recently, the George and Barbara Bush Foundation unveiled “41@100,” a series of events to mark the centenary of the birth of the nation’s 41st President, George H.W. Bush. In a similar strain, I also tasked myself with reading Jon Meacham’s enthralling biography of President Bush, “Destiny and Power: The American Odyssey of George Herbert Walker Bush.” Now 31 years since he left office, I have found myself pondering the lessons that the life and career of George H.W. Bush can teach us in the 21st century. When ultimately weighed from the vantage point of history, President Bush stands out as a model of decency, service and duty. He was a steadfast patriot, and an example we should strive to follow.
I hear the footsteps behind me. I can’t stop myself from checking. How am I to know for sure? I’m not sure why I even check, let’s be honest, it’s not like I am about to run away, at least not successfully. As I look over my shoulder, I don’t see a serial killer, but a boy. A cute one at that. The boy doesn’t look at my limp as I walk or even my prosthetic legs — no — his eyes look at my own. I blush at the foreign intimacy of it.
The Irish softball team took one win and two losses this past weekend against the Clemson Tigers, now making them 24-20 on the season so far and 8-13 in the Atlantic Coast Conference.
When I walked up to check-in underneath the wind tunnel of the Lyons Hall arch, I was greeted by people I had never seen before, immediately intimidating my introverted personality that I’ve since shirked entirely. When I ventured up to my shoebox sized first year dorm room, I was more than ready to get to know my roommates and create memories that any moment of “Friends” could not top. What I wasn’t prepared for was the sophomore that knocked on my door and introduced herself as the former resident of my teeny-tiny room.
