Sketches of a place

Elizabeth Prater | Monday, September 4, 2023

You can identify a senior who studied abroad very quickly because they will bring it up within the first five minutes of any conversation upon returning. I am no different.  Spending the spring semester in London reignited a passion for travel that had been dormant for the past few years. During my time in England,

With graduation fast approaching, our Scene-iors reminisce on the songs that helped define their four years in South Bend. “Just Like Heaven” by The Cure Aidan O’Malley, Senior Scene Writer Don’t be fooled by the title: If it’s a song by The Cure, it ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. Still, “Just Like Heaven” is one

What I love about Notre Dame

Stephen Viz | Monday, May 1, 2023

This clip from the 2009 movie “Inglourious Basterds” can help define my attitude as we begin May 2023. “Well if this is it old boy, I hope you don’t mind if I go out speaking the King’s” is probably not what my editor really wanted to read as we wrap up a great year at

A thank-you marathon

Madeline Law | Monday, April 24, 2023

In 28 days, the seniors and their supporters will hear graduation speeches with inevitable lists of thank you’s. We will be thanking professors for their knowledge and guidance, and staff for their care and hard work. We will be thanking our friends for their companionship and camaraderie, and family — including chosen family — for

Looking for a job… is a full time job

Stephen Viz | Thursday, February 23, 2023

As I write this on Feb. 21st, 2023, I unfortunately still check the box as that of an unemployed king. While many undergrad and graduate students who will graduate in May are set up to start full time roles this summer, I am not yet one of those fortunate folks. Professional job recruiting is a

‘Impermeably and forever’: Reflecting on Rory Gilmore’s graduation speech

Mannion McGinley | Friday, January 27, 2023

“Gilmore Girls” has been a comfort show of mine for years. Through my many watches, I’ve processed that Rory Gilmore is no perfect character. In fact, she’s one of the farthest main characters from “perfect” that I have come to know in my 22 years of reading, watching and learning. While she and Lorelai didn’t

On snow and purpose

Reyna Lim | Friday, November 18, 2022

I have very little idea of what purpose means, but today I’m writing about it anyway. This is how I make sense of things. I’ve addressed it in this column before: purpose, meaning, being 21 and utterly confused. My dedication to seeming continually lost is less of an artistic choice, and more of a direct

Dilemma: Internship or retail?

Gabriel Ibarra | Monday, September 26, 2022

Dear reader, welcome back to the chaos. Since the last time you’ve read a word written by me, the temperature has dropped to cardigan and corduroy weather. Not only that, but we’ve begun our approach to midterm season. It can be daunting to head into midterms every year, even though we somehow manage it every

What I’ll carry with me

Genevieve Coleman | Friday, September 2, 2022

If you ever happen to see me walking around campus this year, there’s an incredibly high chance you will also notice my 40-ounce water bottle.  It’s actually kind of hard to miss. Aside from how large the bottle is, it’s also a bright mint green and shows off my favorite stickers (with more on the

On your left

Aidan O'Malley | Wednesday, August 24, 2022

This year — my senior year — I’m living off-campus. It was about damn time. I enjoyed dorm life, don’t get me wrong, but there’s only so many communal showers, air condition-less nights and flying rodents a man can handle before he snaps and signs a lease. I’ve always thought of myself as independent, so

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.
