The road to progress starts with listening, not speaking

BridgeND | Wednesday, September 13, 2023

With the division that our country has experienced in the last few years, we have also heard many different perspectives on what we can do to fix it. Some of these methods preach peace and understanding of one another, and I couldn’t agree more. It is vital for us to make an effort to listen

Religion’s death will be at the hands of politics

Blake Ziegler | Thursday, April 27, 2023

Religion is dying in the United States. When Gallup first began surveying religious membership in 1937, 73% of Americans identified as members of a church, synagogue or mosque. That figure remained roughly the same for the next six decades until the new century saw a steady decline. As of 2020, less than half of Americans

Love is always worth it

Joey Jegier | Friday, April 21, 2023

If humans were programmed like artificial intelligence, our code would be based on love. We are built for love. As I was deciding what to write for this column, I knew it had to be something I could write quickly and easily, because it’s due soon and I’m busy. I decided to write about love,

A Christian is a miracle

Andrew Sveda | Monday, April 17, 2023

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come” (2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV).  A Christian is fundamentally unique and is not just like everyone else. Nor is he, more or less, just like all other religious people but is instead radically set apart.

Sharpening isn’t comfortable

BridgeND | Wednesday, April 5, 2023

The past 72 hours have been a blur. Alongside the typical slew of exams and papers, pretty much every organization that I’m involved in decided to hold a large event.  A few of the highlights: Thursday, I was a moderator for Bridge the Gap, a series of small group roundtable discussions hosted by BridgeND.

What JLEPP is about

Devin Humphreys | Wednesday, March 22, 2023

All the way back in July of 2020, before our time at Notre Dame Law School had truly begun, those in our class who had professor Richard W. Garnett for Criminal Law received his classic piece on the four layers of the law, each layer getting closer to the core of what this thing we

He will come again

Andrew Sveda | Tuesday, March 7, 2023

“Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation” (2 Peter 3:4 ESV). The hope and anticipation of Jesus’ Second Coming, the judgment, and the resurrection are central to the Christian faith and life. Indeed, this eager expectation

An open letter on academic freedom

Letter to the Editor | Monday, March 6, 2023

Universities across the country wrestle with what it means to maintain academic freedom and free speech under the weight of an increasingly polarized culture. Law schools have not been immune to the influences of cancel culture, with prestigious institutions making headlines such as “US Judge Won’t Hire Yale Law Clerks Citing ‘Cancel Culture’” and “Georgetown’s

Death and taxes: Memento mori

Devin Humphreys | Wednesday, March 1, 2023

Back in undergrad, I was one of the founding members of Michigan State University’s Knights of Columbus chapter. While the ceremonials for being inducted into the first three degrees of the Knights were a closely guarded secret at the time of my initiation, they were declassified during the COVID-19 pandemic, and I am now able

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.

This week, From the Archives takes a long overdue look at the history of Bengal Bouts. While this tournament predates the Observer by nearly four decades, we uncovered a selection of stories that capture at least a part of the rich history of this Notre Dame tradition.

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”. 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.
