Danny McMaster looks forward to lunch on Thursdays. He knows he will file up to the salad bar and order a serving of Notre Dame’s celebrity meal: the Southwest Salad. (Editor’s Note: McMaster is a Viewpoint columnist for The Observer.) “Every student at Notre Dame could be in the line and I’d still get

I do not claim to be a pizza expert. In fact, my East Coast colleagues would assert that my Nebraska heritage makes me the very opposite of such. But, I have the belief that when a person is a restaurant’s first customer, they acquire a certain right to judge that same restaurant. Such a customer

There are decades where nothing happens. And then there are weeks where decades happen. I firmly believe that years from now, as you look back fondly on your college days, you will look back at the week Pizza Pi opened and realize that it was the greatest week of your life.

Vice president for student affairs Karen Johnson announced further changes to Saint Mary’s’ co-exchange program in an email to the Saint Mary’s community Thursday. Currently, the co-exchange — or “co-ex” — program allows pre-approved Saint Mary’s students to eat meals at Notre Dame at no additional cost. In March, however, the College announced plans to begin

Beverly Skopec and her fellow monitors at South Dining Hall have seen a wide variety of things stolen from their workplace. Some of them stranger than others, Skopec said. “Mary Ann [Sobieralski, head monitor at South Dining Hall] saw some guys take a big dining hall table, and she called security and they said, ‘Oh,

Campus Dining at Notre Dame produces over 400 tons of food waste annually — 10 percent of the University’s overall waste. While in the past almost all of this food waste would end up in a landfill, Campus Dining has partnered with the Office of Sustainability to implement the Grind2Energy system, which converts food waste into renewable

To put it very bluntly, I think of myself as belonging to a variety of minority groups: I’m a biracial female at Notre Dame who still vehemently supports “A Star Is Born.” I often use these columns, and my writing in general, to call attention to these groups I belong to. But there has been
