I requested my Notre Dame admissions file [NOT CLICKBAIT]

Aidan O'Malley | Wednesday, January 18, 2023

Title; it was disappointing (I guess it was clickbait). But we’ll get to that part later. Your first question may be: How? My thanks to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, or FERPA. Remember that box you checked on the Common App when you submitted your letters of rec? You were waiving your FERPA

Nutrigrain bars and my era of absurdity

Kate Casper | Wednesday, November 30, 2022

If I could sum up November 2022 in one word, it would be absurd. From getting kicked out of the ND Redheads GroupMe to strutting around North Quad at 4 a.m. singing “Bejeweled” by Taylor Swift to staying in on a Friday night to work out in the BP gym, I would argue my month

A briefly snowy Saturday

Madeline Law | Monday, November 14, 2022

It’s snowing today. Snowing! You can read that line as an ecstatic exclamation or a disappointed one, depending on your feelings about the wonderful phenomenon of drifting crystallized water. I was talking with my roommate in our kitchen when I noticed it. I’m pretty sure I cried, “It’s snowing!” with more enthusiasm than I thought

The comfort of college

Eva Analitis | Friday, April 22, 2022

My close friends might characterize my college years as a time of (trivial) crises: poring over projects late into the night, leaving Hesburgh Library at sunrise once or twice, having my bike stolen in broad daylight from right outside DeBart, sustaining a black eye from a night-run gone wrong on an uneven sidewalk, agonizing over

At the halfway point (a playlist)

Anna Falk | Wednesday, April 20, 2022

At nearly the halfway point of my college career, I’ve seen a lot — and I’ve heard a lot. Music is one of my many passions and for this article I wanted to share some of the moments and songs that have gotten me to where I am (mostly in order.)  “Nights In White Satin”

Love and attention

Ellie Konfrst | Tuesday, April 5, 2022

I’m not very good at settling on a favorite anything, but when people ask me what my favorite movie is, I usually tell them 2017’s “Lady Bird.” It’s a pretty basic answer for a twentysomething white woman, but I tell anyone who will listen that my favorite artist is Taylor Swift, so it’s not like

From the Archives: Notre Dame admissions and issues of inclusion

Spencer Kelly, Uyen Le and Lilyann Gardner | Monday, April 4, 2022

As recently reported in The Observer, Notre Dame’s class of 2026 is incredibly inclusive. The incoming cohort contains students from all 50 states and 95 countries, while 47% went to public high schools, 41% are students of color, and 20 to 22% will be Pell Grant recipients. With an understanding that Notre Dame has not
