TED Talks: Ideas from the Catholic Social Tradition That We Find Inspiring.” The two-day event was held as part of the 2024-25 Notre Dame Forum: What Do We Owe Each Other?
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, gather round please. We are all about to embark on a full three days of Halloween festivities, but what are you going to dress up as? I know you’re stressed. Today is Halloween and gosh, hasn’t it crept up faster than you expected AGAIN? I am only speaking to my fellow Type-B’s, as you Type-A’s probably came to school in August with all your costumes ready to go. But to my last minute, half-assing it hotties, I’ve got you. Let’s get your costume sorted.
During a beautiful week free of classes on campus, Notre Dame athletics pressed on with its late-fall and early-winter seasons. Outside of the football team, which blew past Georgia Tech at 31-13 and dismantled Navy at 51-14, here’s a look at how the Irish performed.
All season long, Notre Dame football has followed the lead of Riley Leonard’s play. When the senior quarterback was at his most composed, navigating an inexperienced offensive line and an opposing crowd north of 100,000 in Week One, the Irish outclassed Texas A&M. With Leonard at his most dominant with a trio of first-half rushing touchdowns in Week Three, Notre Dame hung 66 points on Purdue.
Serving as Notre Dame's women basketball coach from 1987 until 2020 and garnering 930 career wins and two NCAA championships, Muffet McGraw has long been a celebrated figure in women’s sports. Recently, however, she has turned her attention to advocating for social justice, women’s rights and democratic engagement, she explained during an event hosted by College Democrats Monday night on public figures in the political spotlight.
“Coraline” is one of those “kids” films that is downright terrifying. Do you remember your first time watching it? I was in the fourth grade and a very good friend of mine invited me and a few others over for a sleepover in October. Wanting to watch something scary, but too frightened and young for a “real” scary movie, we settled on “Coraline,” figuring: “It’s animated and only rated PG, how bad can it be?” Innocently, we began the movie.
I stand there laughing, my mom giving a little smirk to the camera. In her hands are three plump mini pumpkins, orange and white and striped. Afterwards, I stare at the photo for a few beats — taking in her smile, the pumpkin patch. How the sun, positioned perfectly behind her head, created this seemingly celestial glow around her body. Amused by her gleeful delight at the thought of sneaking three Indiana-grown pumpkins in her carry on when she went back to California.
The Fr. Ted Talks series on Oct. 28 and 29 claims to feature talks “from every corner of the Notre Dame community” to answer the Notre Dame Forum’s question, “What do we owe each other?” However, some voices in the University have been continually denied the opportunity to express their opinion in public settings and are categorically restricted from speaking at this event.
Over the break, between the two schools, the Saint Mary’s and Holy Cross athletic teams competed in 12 games.
After a tremendous 2023-2024 season going 28-7 overall and 13-5 in conference play, the Notre Dame women’s basketball team is preparing for another successful year.

When I found out I would be moving into an apartment, I assumed I was ready. After all, my hometown friends have lived in apartments for years, and I have lived in a house and with roommates. How hard can maintaining an apartment really be?
Many actions in life can have unknown consequences. When you take a new job or move to a new place, the outcomes of your decisions are not nailed down to a single result. You can anticipate and plan for what might occur, but life has a way of paving its own path. However, when filling out a voting ballot for a presidential election, there are only two real possible outcomes: either the Democratic nominee wins or the Republican nominee does. The structure of the two-party system is conducive to forcing the electorate between two candidates, even when they don’t represent the vast majority of what voters believe. Given the nature of elections, it is possible to make predictions about what will happen after the winner of the 2024 presidential race is announced in November.
The masculine urge to stop eating highly-processed foods and maintain a diet of just grass-fed steak, pasture-raised eggs, avocado and bacon strips. I write this article as a sequel titled “The masculine urge to …”— it serves as a continuation of the social commentary of masculine urges but situated within the theme of my articles thus far this semester.
In a late-October game littered with College Football Playoff implications, only one team looked the part of a true contender. No. 12 Notre Dame decimated No. 24 Navy by a 51-14 score on Saturday afternoon at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, ending the Midshipmen’s unbeaten start. The Irish, who improved to 7-1 on the year, forced five turnovers and tallied at least 20 points in each half. Here are five key moments to look back on as Notre Dame heads into its second bye week.
The Notre Dame-Navy rivalry acts as a binding thread in the rich tapestry of college football history. The longest uninterrupted intersectional series in college football, Notre Dame and Navy possess a rare mutual respect not possessed by participants of The Game, Iron Bowl or Red River Rivalry.
Notre Dame took care of business in Mercedes-Benz Stadium with a comfortable 31-13 victory over Georgia Tech. The game consolidated a Stanford blowout coming out of the bye week and was the kind of routine performance most were expecting from this team earlier in the season. Nonetheless, it is a good sign of growth heading into a Navy matchup that has proven to be a legitimate test. If I had asked before the season who the two ranked teams remaining on Notre Dame’s schedule were heading into Week Nine, most if not all would have said Florida State and USC, not Army and Navy. And yet, the Midshipmen come into the game undefeated sitting at No. 24 in the AP Poll.
Three days ago, I contacted my boss, Viewpoint Editor Liam Price, with a pitch. I would write a piece on the Amtrak home, and submit it by the end of my 12-hour journey. He accepted. The following is a reflection on the first half of my first semester of college.
My good friend J.J. Post, a former associate sports editor here at The Observer, has a famous line that seems to ring true time and time again during football season. Consisting of five simple words, you’d better believe I heard a lot on Saturday as Notre Dame finished off Georgia Tech in Atlanta.
In the wake of last Monday’s season-ending injury news for junior cornerback Benjamin Morrison, few Irish players, if any, felt a greater impact responsibility-wise than Leonard Moore. Just halfway through his opening season at Notre Dame, the freshman suddenly became a full-time starter. All while managing his first set of midterms, Moore had less than a week to ready himself for Saturday’s clash with Georgia Tech in Atlanta.
