What the founders learned from Cicero

Letter to the Editor | Friday, November 1, 2019

To refer to the American Founding as “fundamentally an Enlightenment project,” as has been written in this section, is to miss the vast wealth of classical wisdom that our Founders drew upon, and the inspiration it provided for our country’s birth. The belief that the Founding was monolithically inspired by John Locke’s classical liberalism is

‘Stupid Humans’ is elegant and touching

Alexander Daugherty | Monday, March 4, 2019

“Listen to your heart.” This phrase is, at least on the surface, the message of junior Jorge “Jay” Rivera-Herrans’ new musical, “Stupid Humans.” Though this is generally a tired and eye-roll-worthy aphorism, Rivera-Herrans’s musical takes the message quite literally. “Have you ever tried freestyling to a heartbeat?” protagonist Indigo asks during an open-heart surgery he

Commencement 2017: Four Years in Review

Nora McGreevy | Friday, May 19, 2017

On Aug. 27, 2013, the class of 2017 walked to their first day of classes with summer anthems “I Need Your Love” by Calvin Harris and the sunny, feel-good “Brave” by Sara Bareilles echoing in their ears. The class of 2017 lived through a whirlwind of change in popular culture – with services like Spotify

It’s not an album, it’s a movement: Common’s ‘Black America Again’

Carlos De Loera | Thursday, November 10, 2016

On Nov. 4, Common released his eleventh studio album “Black America Again,” and from the get-go the rapper lets the listener know this a politically charged album. In an interview with the radio show “The Breakfast Club,” Common stated the album’s title is “a movement, a call to action … we [African-Americans] are writing a new

Four years in review

Erin McAuliffe | Friday, May 13, 2016

  The Class of 2016 walked onto campus on Aug. 19, 2012 with “Call Me Maybe” still ringing in their ears — the result of both tear-filled parent drop-offs and Carly Rae Jepsen’s summer single. From 2012’s countless car karaokes and parodies to Jepsen’s 2015 perfect pop album “E*MO*TION”, the Class of 2016 has matured

We keep living anyway

Scott Boyle | Monday, November 16, 2015

Chances are we’ve all had moments that capture our attention to such a degree that we can’t stop focusing on them. For me, those moments usually come in the form of music. If I hear a song that grabs me, I’ll listen to it on repeat — sometimes hundreds of times over multiple days. The

The ‘Hamilton’ revolution

Jennifer Vosters | Wednesday, November 11, 2015

Don’t punch me, but I got to see “Hamilton” on Broadway over fall break. My head is still spinning over my luck. As we watched history come to life onstage, the audience knew we too were a part of history, part of a seismic shift in the way we approach musical theatre and our own founding story.

What even is art, anyway?

Lesley Stevenson | Thursday, August 27, 2015

Throughout my time at Notre Dame, I’ve been saying I want to take an art class, just for fun. Just, you know, like an English major might take an engineering class for kicks. I have no real business taking an art class, first because I have no training and second because I’m not sure what
