Deck the halls

Adriana Perez | Friday, May 13, 2022

“Soon they’ll have the nerve to deck the halls / that we once walked through.” With graduation on the horizon, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this line in Taylor Swift’s “champagne problems.” I haven’t been able to stop thinking about the impermanence, the evanescence of our stay here on campus. I haven’t

And the show goes on

Abby Patrick | Friday, May 13, 2022

Sitting down to write this column, even thinking about writing this column, is more than a little daunting. How, in 800-1000 words, do you attempt to articulate, wrap up or even lightly address the close of the last four years? The last four, crazy, broken up, influential years of learning, laughter, friendship, tears, life lessons,

Pockets full of sunshine

Julianna Conley | Wednesday, March 30, 2022

As a Southern Californian, I can’t say winter is my favorite season. As my family can attest, I like to be in shorts and a tank top whenever possible. I almost didn’t attend Notre Dame because I was so bummed out by the leafless trees I saw when I visited. I avoid wearing snow boots

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

Why you should dance more

Mackenzie Olsen | Monday, September 27, 2021

Dancing: a foreign concept to some and a talent of others. I have very little skill when it comes to the technicalities of dancing, but you’ll always see me busting a move. Why? Because I recognize its importance, and you should too. My grandpa was diagnosed with dementia five years ago when I was a

How to fail at starting a band in college

Colleen Fischer | Thursday, May 6, 2021

(Or: A coming-of-age essay about giving up on your dreams) Step One: Want to start a band  All failed bands start the same way with someone wanting to start a band. If you talked to me in high school and asked me if I wanted to start a band, I would probably say that bands

A short letter for tired students

Renee Yaseen | Monday, November 9, 2020

Nothing tasted sweeter than the capri-suns and orange slices passed from hand to hand after my elementary school soccer games. Do you remember? Water bottles dripping wet from a minivan’s melting cooler, air smelling like Kentucky blue grass and making everything kind of taste like it. You may have similar memories. A hug from a

Memories

Krista Lourdes Akiki | Friday, September 18, 2020

“Our memories are gifts that show us life, even through the toughest times, is worth living.” -Chrissy Pinney  Memories are the essence of our humanity. Sometimes beautiful, at other times painful. Sometimes unforgettable, at other times regrettable. Sometimes as clear as day, at other times blurred among each other… For me, the memories I cherish

Thomas: Thank you Mookie Betts

Aidan Thomas | Monday, February 17, 2020

Growing up in Portland, Maine, I was fortunate enough to watch Mookie Betts play baseball before he reached Fenway Park. Working at the Portland Sea Dogs, the Red Sox’s Double-A squad, I got to see Betts on a nearly daily basis, witnessing first-hand the electric touch he brought to the game. Earlier this week, the
