Celebrating the season: A guide to autumn in Michiana

Anna Falk | Wednesday, September 20, 2023

As the leaves turn red and the air begins to chill, all I can think about is the arrival of autumn. It is my favorite season of the year, a time of festivals, family, football and friends.  Though Notre Dame has football covered, what else is there to do in the Michiana area to celebrate

Saint Mary’s volleyball says goodbye to seniors, prepares for fall

Peter Breen | Friday, May 19, 2023

The Saint Mary’s volleyball team’s three departing seniors, Emma Watford, Sam Vorderer and Courtney Pelletier, provided so much leadership on and off the court this season, head coach Denise Van De Walle said. Pelletier, a Mishawaka native, made a particularly strong impact as team captain on “three different occasions,” Van De Walle added. “[Pelletier] was

‘Stick Season’: An ode to New England

Olivia Schatz | Tuesday, November 8, 2022

Noah Kahan teased his newest album “Stick Season” as an ode to New England. When he released his first single, the namesake of his album, it blew up on Tik Tok, and the once-niche indie singer was thrown into stardom. The single “Stick Season” was released on June 8, while his second single “Northern Attitude”

‘When Harry Met Sally…’: The heartwarming origin of the ‘Meg Ryan Fall’ trend

Maggie Clark | Wednesday, October 5, 2022

As we enter autumn, TikTok has taken a turn from focusing on the “coastal grandmother” summer aesthetic, to one more fitting of the current season: “Meg Ryan Fall.” This trend is inspired by the namesake’s hit movies of the 80s and 90s. Because of the popularity of the aesthetic, many of Ryan’s movies have faced

The freshmen flu: A story of sniffles

Jonah Tran | Monday, October 3, 2022

The temperature is dropping. The leaves are changing colors. The flannel and gray sweatpants combo have arrived. It is sweater weather if you will. As of Sept. 22, at 9:04 p.m. EDT, fall has arrived in the Northern Hemisphere and at Notre Dame too. You might be tempted to think that the most important development

Fall is here, but I swear, summer is forever

Kate Casper | Tuesday, September 27, 2022

Perhaps the start of fall isn’t marked by last Thursday’s Autumnal Equinox at 9:04 p.m. Eastern Time — maybe it’s the August 30 return of the Pumpkin Spiced Latte to Starbucks, or the day the box fans start to disappear from dorm room windows. Maybe it’s the first chill of fall you feel on an

November is underrated

Mannion McGinley | Friday, November 5, 2021

It’s Halloween night in my junior year of high school. My sister gets home from trick or treating, drops her bag full of candy on the counter and sprints up the stairs to her room.  About an hour later, I get a call from her to come upstairs.  I open the door and the entire

A season of change

Simon Vogel | Wednesday, October 6, 2021

Once again, it is fall in the Bend.  According to the sun, the Earth and the Encyclopedia Britannica, this means that on Sept. 22 the sun’s annual pathway and the celestial equator intersected, and that the division between night and day was equal. According to us students, this means themed Starbucks drinks, hoodies and scarves,

Moving beyond the culture of busy

Devin Humphreys | Tuesday, August 24, 2021

As the year opens at Our Lady’s University, with undergrads returning to the dorms and giving their “Notre Dame introductions,” law students like myself cracking open our casebooks in hopes of not bombing a cold call and campus bustling with activity once again, I am ever cognizant of the presence of God on this campus.

The quintessential fall playlist

Nicole Bilyak | Wednesday, September 23, 2020

The weather has become cooler, which signals the start of fall. Fall is the season for pumpkin spice lattes, Halloween and the changing of the leaves. While you curl up by the fireplace with a cup of hot chocolate, you don’t really think about songs that signify the fall. However, there are a multitude of

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.
