I see you. I am you.

Bella Laufenberg | Monday, April 11, 2022

Hi. My name is Bella, and I would like to tell you my story. A story of resilience, like many of us have, and imperfection. A story without a happy ending, but a hopeful one. Before I begin, I wanted to tell you that there is so much more to the story than I have

When it comes to vaccine mandates, many conservatives are borrowing a pro-choice mantra: “My body, my choice.” On one hand, this is a smart tactic. It points out a logical inconsistency in the pro-choice, pro-COVID-19 vaccine mandate camp. If what I do with my body is my choice, how can you force someone to take

Elizabeth Prater | Tuesday, April 20, 2021

While isolation due to disease may seem like a new, pervasive issue that has erupted after the onset of COVID-19, the notion is not completely foreign to the colony of Kalaupapa.

Isabella Volmert | Friday, March 12, 2021

Just over a year ago, March 6, 2020, I was riding passenger side with a friend as we drove home for spring break to Washington, Missouri. We talked a little about the concerns of the coronavirus, but the conversation probably didn’t last much longer than the first 20 minutes of the seven-hour drive.  Five days

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.

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.
