As October arrives, sophomores and juniors (and even first-years) begin to think about their off-campus migration. A variety of apartment and townhome complexes in the South Bend area offer leases for students, but it can be difficult to navigate all the information available. The Observer has compiled a guide to off-campus housing with information accurate

Moving off campus as a student at Notre Dame is a political decision. Certain types of people seem almost offended when I told them I was planning to move off campus, shocked that I would dare abandon my hall. The patented Notre Dame Introduction turned awkward upon my departure, as I graced my syllabus weeks

Shortly after noon on Tuesday, I joined a group of students and faculty in a peaceful protest on the sidewalk between O’Shaughnessy Hall and DeBartolo Hall. We laid on the ground for 11 minutes in reference to the 11 times Eric Garner stated that he could not breathe as a New York City police officer used a

Commenting on “A Streetcar Named Desire,” Niles Crane from television’s bygone gem “Frasier” claims it takes a true psychiatrist to fully understand the meaning of Tennessee Williams’s theatrical masterpiece. I’m no psychiatrist (just a dreamer), nor are the majority of the play’s audience members, but Niles gets at a point bent on how “Streetcar” ought to be read, performed and

Notre Dame is less homogenous than it once was. Two student-written, -directed and -acted plays that opened last week are a harbinger of our campus culture’s growing richness. ND Theatre NOW! sponsored the production of the two one-act plays, each written by senior Film, Television and Theatre and English majors, which debuted Oct. 2 and will run

Whether you’re a fan of stand-up, or more of an improv type of person, there was something for you at Legends last Thursday. The club was taken over by two of the funniest groups on campus, with performances by both the Student Standups and Humor Artists. The Standups featured the acts of six students whose

Stepping into the Patricia George Decio Theatre at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center, the audience members easily could see they was going to be transported to another world. The stage was transformed into an ancient hall: Two sets of crossbeams hung down above the triple-layered stage, signaling the world of “Henry IV” would be more primeval than
