Mary Bernard | Tuesday, January 21, 2020

Social media is an intrinsic part of news consumption today. As The Observer’s Social Media Editor (and now, one of the Assistant Managing Editors), this reality is not lost on me.

Dear graduate students

Letter to the Editor | Monday, March 25, 2019

If you follow any graduate school network, or even education news in general, then you’ve probably seen the headlines.

We’re barely a month into 2019, but judging from the news cycle in recent days you’d think it was 2020. Indeed, with ambitious Democrats lining up to announce their bids for the White House, 2019 is starting to look a lot like the new 2020. But if it feels way too early to be talking

An election reflection

Drew Lischke | Monday, November 5, 2018

I experienced my first election day thrill on Nov. 4, 2008. If you’ll recall, that day was the culmination of years of campaigning and diligent politicization that led to the victory and subsequent assumption of the first black man to the presidency of the United States. I was eleven. I cannot understate my desperate supplication

A plea to vote on Tuesday

Letter to the Editor | Monday, November 5, 2018

This Tuesday, we have the mid-term elections. There have been reports that say that there is a good chance voter turn-up is going to be up this year, especially among younger voters.

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds.

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.
