15 reasons to keep newspapers around

Maggie Eastland | Monday, August 29, 2022

Nothing will put a damper on a bright-eyed college student like the journalism industry, but here’s the upside. I’ve compiled a list of 15 amazing uses for newspapers. Hint: The final reason is the most absurd of them all. 1. Dorm room fly swatter Nothing works better than a rolled-up newspaper. 2. Annoying roommate swatter

A love letter to Viewpoint

Nelisha Silva | Monday, March 15, 2021

Not to be horribly cheesy, but Viewpoint was always my first love at The Observer.  As much as I love our other departments, in my eyes, Viewpoint was always the most interesting department. When I first became a copy editor sophomore year, I was fascinated by the hot takes we published, but I had no

What is bravery? How this question ignited a generational firestorm

Jackie O'Brien | Monday, November 25, 2019

This past week, I posted a comment on the Observer’s Facebook post promoting David Phillips’ letter to the editor. Phillips had written about his participation in the recent protests and the group End Hate at ND, as well as the negative impacts of parietals on student experience.

We are all Notre Dame

Diversity Council | Thursday, October 17, 2019

Dear Notre Dame, The dialogue on this campus has very real implications for the lives of students, especially when it begins to touch on an individual’s or group’s identity.

Observer Editorial Board | Friday, March 29, 2019

This week, The Observer has heard from mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, alumni, and, of course, many legging-wearing women. Having received over 35 letters to The Observer, in addition to the countless verbal comments, tweets, memes and class discussions about Monday’s letter, we have been astonished by the conversations the leggings piece has sparked. As the

Ranking the arguments with my friends

Davis Gonsalves | Wednesday, March 28, 2018

Many intellectual friend groups argue about pressing issues surrounding our current culture. Race, gender, income inequality, etc. are discussed in order to educate and hopefully change our society. I am not in one of those friend groups. I should revise that: We talk about those things, but sparingly, and we all usually end up agreeing

The societal importance of reflexivity

BridgeND | Wednesday, March 21, 2018

You, the reader, are probably consuming this piece (or moving on to another) because you want to read inflammatory opinions, weird lists and obsessions, social commentary or maybe you’re just bored and lonely at lunch in the dining hall. Whatever it is, there is a “why” behind your actions. Now, maybe you’re reading the inflammatory

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.

On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the polls and elect their new student body president. A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
