Last spring, the clock app on my phone was filled with time zones from different cities. Indianapolis. Denver. Paris. Dublin. Toledo. Jerusalem. Perth. The cities didn’t always perfectly match the locations of my friends. But they gave me a general sense of their time zones as we studied abroad in different continents. The clocks served

I may not be the “Observer Columnist of the Century”or anything, but I hope I’ve done a decent enough job this past year to keep you reading. If not, congrats! This is the last time in a while you’ll be hearing from me. What sorts of things does one share in their final column? I

Fictional character Leslie Knope marked Feb. 13 as a day for “ladies celebrating ladies” in the now-infamous “Galentine’s Day” episode of television show “Parks and Recreation.” Since then, the Knope-ism has exploded into a real holiday, which has become a nationwide celebration of female friendship. “Here at Saint Mary’s, Galentine’s Day allows us to focus

I fell in love at the Homecoming dance. Barefoot in the center of the high school gym, the floor littered with pink and white petals from corsages torn to bits in the frenzy, I spun in circles with my closest friends. We jumped around with our hands in the air. We dropped it low and

Senior Week 2018 will feature a few new events while maintaining its focus on giving seniors a final week to have fun and say goodbye to Notre Dame. Seniors Anna Schierl and Molly Robinson, this year’s co-chairs of Senior Week, are the first chairs the Senior Class Council has chosen outside of student government, Robinson said.

It’s not true that you won’t regret things in college. You will regret not studying harder for one more test, or not taking one more class, or not joining one more club or even not going out one more night. I would bet that over the course of your four years, you will most definitely

I remember it like it was yesterday. I had just arrived at Holy Cross College for my freshman year in late August 2014. My older brother Cameron, who attended Notre Dame, urged me to go to the extracurricular fair the University holds at the beginning of every year to see if there was anything I
