Notre Dame’s “What Would You Fight For?” series won a Sports Emmy for outstanding public service content in May. Each season, the series features six two-minute videos showcasing faculty and students’ research and achievements. The videos air during each home football game just before halftime.
Following a 2-1 defeat in Upstate New York at the hands of Syracuse last Saturday, the Notre Dame men’s soccer team returned home to Alumni Stadium to play host to the Michigan Wolverines for their annual rivalry tilt. The Irish have dominated the Wolverines historically, holding a 16-3-4 edge in the series, including a 3-0 win in Ann Arbor a year ago.
As far as bye weeks go, last week was about as successful as Notre Dame could have hoped for. One of the most chaotic, upset-filled weeks in recent memory, highlighted by Vanderbilt stunning No. 1 Alabama and No. 25 Texas A&M — over whom the Irish secured a crucial win over in their season opener — dominating No. 9 Missouri, opened the door for Notre Dame to jump three spots up in the AP Poll to No. 11 and firmly position itself back in College Football Playoff contention without even having to play a game. Meanwhile, the Irish got a much-needed week of rest following a hard-fought win at home over Louisville and should come out of the break much fresher and healthier across the board.
Should you hear a distant low rumble followed by the smell of gasoline permeating through the crisp fall air, do not fear. It’s not the collapse of a nearby power plant, but rather me starting the engine of my 2003 Honda Civic. My car has been turning heads since it rolled onto campus at the start of the semester thanks to its distinctive age and striking resemblance to the 34th President of the United States Dwight D. Eisenhower. Yet unlike General Eisenhower, my car is still going strong. Both my car and I celebrated our 21st birthdays this past month. But it may have partied a little too hard because when I went to pick up my friend from the airport on Sunday, my car wouldn’t start.
I am a little over a month into my first semester as a sophomore, and I already miss Fisher Hall. Ever since the “Cadillac of dorms” was tragically torn to the ground, the men of Fisher were shipped off to Zahm Hall, where we will reside for the next two years. For all my Fr. Kevin students, we are what Walker Percy would call castaways.
Can Notre Dame volleyball perform well on the road? That’s the next question facing Salima Rockwell and the upshot, 9-4 Irish this weekend, which will take them to No. 21 Florida State and Miami (Florida).
We are now through Week Five of the NFL season, and it has started like no other. Rookies like Jayden Daniels and Malik Nabers are building on their college success and showing a promising future in the league. The Minnesota Vikings lost their starting quarterback, but Sam Darnold has saved the day and led them to be one of two teams left undefeated. The Chiefs left right off from last season's Super Bowl win. Kirk Cousins of the Atlanta Falcons recently threw for 500 yards against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and got the win. We are seeing new faces on teams, and injured players from last season are rebounding. Something else new to the game are coverings on some players’ helmets. Those coverings are called Guardian Caps, and they are the new wave of protecting football players.
Every few years, there’s a mandatory panic about the death of some industry of some sort. Streaming was meant to be the end of network television, yet “Abbott Elementary” and “Young Sheldon” are cultural touchstones to many. Siskel and Ebert suspect home video might cause the death of the cinema, but with more options for home viewing than ever, movies such as “Inside Out 2” or “Deadpool and Wolverine” still manage to surpass a billion dollars in ticket sales. Over the last few months, I’ve noticed the next industry on the hypothetical chopping block: Broadway musicals.
In any genre, there are sure to be recurring plot elements or tropes that you start to notice over a wide spread of stories. Horror movies are no exception, with entire franchises (“Scream” and “Scary Movie”) built on lampooning traditions such as shocking opening kills, red herring murder suspects and the rule of never saying “I’ll be right back,” because you won’t be. Less of a narrative device, but still a genre-defining convention for horror is the notion of a “scream queen.”
Playing at Warren Golf Course, the Notre Dame men’s golf team took its first win at home since 2019 in the annual Fighting Irish Classic. The Irish finished as the only team under par, posting a three-round team score of 835 (-5) to beat out second-place Purdue and third-place Louisville. Notre Dame posted a combined score of 12 under par across the tournament's final two rounds.
This past week, the Saint Mary’s golf team finished first in their second and third Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association Jamboree competitions. With three jamboree victories on the fall season, the Belles are on the inside track to top postseason seeding.
Perched atop Grace Hall, Notre Dame’s iconic No. 1 sign lights up green, symbolizing more than just a numerical ranking. It represents a storied tradition of athletic achievement, campus pride and student initiative that has endured for decades.
Saint Mary’s LGBTQ+ Center marked its third anniversary on Monday with a celebration that included charcuterie, vegetables, cupcakes, soda and music. Students and faculty came together to commemorate the milestone for the space dedicated to fostering inclusivity on campus.

The Future Business Leaders club held its second event of the school year on Monday, featuring Jill Tiefenthaler, CEO of the National Geographic Society. The virtual event, titled “Leading with Purpose: Innovation, Community, Impact, and the Role of Media in Driving Change,” provided attendees with insights into leadership and the power of media in fostering global change.
“Joker” is a film that broke most people’s brains when it released in 2019. The media labeled the film as dangerous and predicted it would cause mass shootings. Critics found it to be a pompous puddle masquerading as a profound film. And audiences absolutely adored it and helped it become the first R-rated movie to gross over $1 billion at the box office. Between the audience and critical divide, I hold a brave third position: it’s a pretty good film. Cinephiles can smugly complain about the film being a rip-off of “The King of Comedy” all they want; it’s still a powerful character study of a man driven insane by a relentlessly cruel, unempathetic world, anchored by a mesmerizing central performance and superb cinematography.
It is on a quiet walk back to Ryan on a Sunday evening that I hear it: the sound of little feet, running. I smile, and my mind invites me into a memory.
Last weekend, I went on a school trip to Canada. Traveling by bus, I sat and looked out the window at the sights of South Bend and the greater Michigan area.
Five games down, seven to go. With Notre Dame football near its midway point of the regular season and ranked No. 11 in the country, it’s time to take a holistic look at the team’s strengths and weaknesses. Here’s how each Irish position group grades out a month and a half into the year.
