Immediately after former President Donald Trump and Senator JD Vance circulated the lie that Haitian immigrants were stealing and eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, the small town was bombarded with national attention. It only took a few days for schools to close, buildings to evacuate and state troopers to mobilize because the Haitian communities were getting a series of bomb threats. The Proud Boys, a white nationalist hate group, marched through the streets and the Ku Klux Klan distributed fliers saying that Haitian immigrants are “disease-ridden and filthy.” Springfield was plunged into racialized, bigoted discourse — all because JD Vance decided to “create a story” to win political points.

On Saturdays, you’ll typically find Notre Dame graduate safety Jordan Clark roaming the Irish defense. As the football team’s starting nickelback, Clark does a little bit of everything, handling run support responsibilities and coverage of interior receivers.

The two-week cycle of huge matches at Alumni Stadium continues for Notre Dame men’s soccer. First, it was a 1-0 loss to Stanford, currently the No. 5 team in the country, on Sept. 14. Then, the Irish toppled No. 12 Clemson, the defending national champion, by a 2-1 score on Sept. 27. Coming up on Friday night, Notre Dame will face another top-tier ACC foe, No. 7 North Carolina.

Last weekend, while Notre Dame took its first bye of the season, college football just so happened to cannibalize itself. Ranked teams like No. 1 Alabama, No. 4 Tennessee, No. 9 Missouri, No. 10 Michigan, No. 11 USC, No. 22 Louisville and No. 25 UNLV all lost. No. 6 Miami (Florida) needed a remarkable comeback to avoid another upset at Cal. As a result of it all, Notre Dame rose into the coveted top 12 at No. 11.

Who doesn‘t like a good family comedy that‘s also super relatable? I know I do, but I‘ll admit it — I‘m fairly late to watching “Inside Out 2” (please don‘t judge!). The arrival of new emotions in “Inside Out 2” and the shape of the plot make it a great movie, touching upon ideas of competitiveness and friendship. Still, there are some plot crossovers from the original movie which were kind of disappointing.

Now entering his third year as the defensive coordinator at Notre Dame, Al Golden has cemented himself as one of the best defensive play callers in college football. His unit finished the 2023 season as one of the best in the country, ranking first in pass efficiency defense (94.91), second in red zone defense (.706), fourth in pass yards allowed per game (154.2) and eighth in total defense (282.9). Returning several core players, including Bronko Nagurski winner graduate safety Xavier Watts and fellow First Team All-American selection graduate defensive lineman Howard Cross III, Golden’s group has continued to excel. And while talent has played a role, Golden has set his guys up for success all season.

I can’t think of many better ways to spend a Sunday. Sitting in the sunny stands of Melissa Cook Stadium, watching my first-ever softball game, I was beginning to understand the allure of bat-and-ball sports. Seeing Notre Dame’s finest put on a 6-0 clinic against Aquinas College certainly left an impression. A few hours later, I was sitting in the Purcell Pavilion, watching a similarly dominant performance by the Fighting Irish volleyball team through equally uncultured eyes. My main takeaway from the Irish 3-0 sweep of Clemson was a deep regret that my day-to-day life across the Atlantic features no equivalent high-flying volleyball culture.

Since my sophomore year at Saint Mary’s, I have been living with athletes. Between their countless practices, games and sometimes injuries, it has been nothing short of inspiring watching each of them go through the last four years remaining committed to their love for the game. As the NARP, non-athletic regular person, of the group who is surrounded by this environment, it is important for me to have an activity of my own to remain motivated. In my case, that is yoga.

After winning first place in Beyond The Dome’s “Imagine a World” case competition with Atlantic Records last year, my team and I received prize tickets to Twenty One Pilots’ concert in Chicago on Oct. 1. Though deeply excited, I went in aware of the fact that I really only knew about three and a half songs of theirs total, which is different from pretty much all the other concerts I’ve been to. I did, however, end up having a fantastic time and left with a much greater appreciation and respect for the artistry of Twenty One Pilots.

This Saturday, the battle for the Legends Trophy returns to Notre Dame Stadium as the Irish host the Stanford Cardinal. The game will mark Notre Dame football’s second “prize game” of the season — the Irish kept the Shillelagh Trophy with a 66-7 annihilation of Purdue in Week Three.

After playing to an oddball of a 1-1 draw against NC State two weeks ago at home, Notre Dame women’s soccer returned to form Saturday at Syracuse. The Irish put 38 shots on the Orange, improving to 8-2-1 overall and 2-0-2 in Atlantic Coast Conference play with their 3-0 victory. As a result, Notre Dame slid back up from No. 17 to No. 13 in the United Soccer Coaches Poll and carries a ranking of 21st in the RPI.

The “Saturday Night” movie poster alone was enough to get me excited about this one. With the 50th season of SNL currently underway, the Jason Reitman film follows the first episode of “Saturday Night Live” in 1975. Comedy kings like Chevy Chase, John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd are depicted in this upcoming film that will be widely released in theaters Oct. 11. While the movie features a large cast (I’m particularly excited for Dylan O’Brien as Aykroyd), the famed SNL writer and producer, Lorne Michaels, is played by the lesser-known Gabriel LaBelle. Despite opposition from others within the production, Michaels is tasked with driving the premiere forward and tries to navigate a tumultuous opening night of potential pitfalls.

Accompanied by musicians Sonny Singh, Nirinjan Kaur Khalsa-Baker and Qais Essar, the onstage group of four performed traditional songs and story telling from the Sikh religion. According to the tour's website, it aims to “energize hearts, build community bonds, and ignite courageous action rooted in love.”
