Look up

Cora Haddad | Wednesday, April 20, 2022

I’ve seen six shooting stars since coming to college. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time, and most importantly, looking up at the sky. As a child my mother would ask me what I saw in the clouds. I would daydream staring at the sky above me watching for

Lessons from my time as a columnist

Julianna Conley | Wednesday, April 13, 2022

Before I even chose a college, I knew I wanted to write for the school newspaper. When a columnist dropped mid-semester of my first-year fall, I applied to fill the spot and joined The Observer family in October. Save a “sabbatical” I took to serve as my dorm’s vice president, over the last four years,

The open secret of the University Counseling Center

Letter to the Editor | Wednesday, April 13, 2022

I have a unique perspective on how this lovely University of ours has changed over time. You see, I got to be an undergraduate twice, with about a decade separating the experiences. Even though I was a Philosophy major back in ‘08, I was pretty well known amongst friends as an amateur therapist. I was

Maybe it’s a ‘duh’ moment

Madeline Law | Wednesday, March 30, 2022

This past week I realized that I still have not put up any pictures in my dorm room. It’s strange to me because I’ve always considered pictures to be one of the most important things I bring to school. Every semester, I would choose a place in my room to display a visual summary of

Just some more cliche advice

Hannah Hebda | Monday, March 28, 2022

I love cliche advice. Whether it be that “good things come to those who wait” or “what goes around comes around,” I fully believe in it. Dealing with some difficult situations over the past few weeks, I have offered an abundance of this advice to my friends, all of whom hate the cliches. You see,

Daylight savings: A political issue? 

BridgeND | Wednesday, March 23, 2022

As I am sure you remember, this past March 13, we all woke up just a little bit more groggy and tired than usual. Of course, this was the result of daylight savings time going into effect. Or, as we all experienced a couple of weeks ago, the day when we lose an hour of

The second step

Madeline Law | Wednesday, March 16, 2022

Depending on what your graduating year is, last week was most likely your first real collegiate spring break. Congratulations! We left for a week, and we came back. Take that, COVID. My column byline is “Trivial Matters.” I thought this was a nice bit of wordplay on my part, for my intention was to talk

Discipline for freedom

Mikey Colgan | Tuesday, February 22, 2022

Growing up, I always resonated strongly with the common sentiment: “Why would I willingly do something that I don’t enjoy?” To be honest, it can be difficult to argue against this reasoning at times. When considering the two options of walking 10 minutes in the snow to lift weights for an hour or sitting in

A theory of love

Trevor Lwere | Monday, February 7, 2022

What is Love? Love is a commitment. What is commitment? Commitment is dedication to someone or something. What is love a commitment to? Love is a commitment to the life of its object. The object could be oneself or another self. So, you ask, what then is life? Life is a constant attempt at approximating

My five minute journal

Claire Kirner | Wednesday, February 2, 2022

I recently started using “The Five Minute Journal” almost solely off of seeing Emma Watson recommend one in a Youtube video, which I guess says something about me and my love for Harry Potter (that still exists after all this time). According to the journal, you are supposed to write in it every day for
