Racial experiences of neurodivergence: An introduction

Jack Griffiths | Friday, November 11, 2022

Being a white man, I fit within the general population’s preconceived idea of what an autistic person looks like. When asked to picture an autistic person, many people will automatically conjure images of young white boys playing with trains.

The high price of fashion

Serena Zacharias | Monday, April 23, 2018

“Made in Bangladesh.”  For the longest time my eyes would gloss over those simple words as I purchased clothes with no consideration as to where or how they were made. In the process of becoming a more conscious consumer in regards to food production, I began to consider all of my purchases, and I quickly settled

Twenty years

Susan Zhu | Monday, August 28, 2017

In 1882, the Chinese Exclusion Act was signed into law, and it was not repealed until 1943. A little over 50 years later, in the winter of 1998, my parents and I came to the United States from Tianjin, China, with no family and a limited proficiency in English. I was 2 years old. The thing

Empathy

Cole Feldman | Monday, January 23, 2017

On an abnormally beautiful January Saturday in South Bend, six of us in the car headed for Rum Village. In the backseat with beautiful people, listening to beautiful music. I smiled, watching Maggie’s hand dance out the window. Her fingers leapt and twirled around a man on the street corner holding a cardboard sign: “homeless

Observer Editorial Board | Friday, October 7, 2016

Every day for the past week, the library has been illuminated in green, spurring confused queries as to the color’s significance among students.

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds. A men’s boxing tournament that benefits the Holy Cross Mission in Bangladesh, Bengal Bouts seems to perfectly combine two integral aspects of Notre Dame’s identity: a passion for sports and a commitment to social impact.

This week, From the Archives takes a long overdue look at the history of Bengal Bouts. While this tournament predates the Observer by nearly four decades, we uncovered a selection of stories that capture at least a part of the rich history of this Notre Dame tradition.

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”. That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.
