There’s a person on the other end of that tweet: Stop bullying athletes online

Julianna Conley | Wednesday, January 12, 2022

A quick text fired off to four current or former student-athletes: “Do you think your relationship with social media has changed since playing college sports?” From each of them, an immediate response: “Yes.” Online trolls are nothing new, with more than 30% of young adults experiencing cyberbullying before the age of 18. Angry sports fans

For custodian who died in the parking lot

Letter to the Editor | Friday, May 17, 2019

Editor’s note: This letter to the editor was originally published on October 2, 2018. On Thursday, Sept. 20 at 6:34 a.m., Michael Adamek, a 57-year-old custodian at the University of Notre Dame, was found unresponsive in the Hesburgh Library parking lot. Moments later, after the arrival of the Notre Dame Security and Police and Notre Dame

Recommit to courtesy

Tom Naatz | Monday, March 25, 2019

“Señora! señora! Por favor, siéntese aquí!” (English: “Ma’am! ma’am! Please sit here!”) The words broke through my daydream on a full — yet otherwise unremarkable — Madrid Metro train. I watched one concerned woman, who I’d guess was about 60 or 65, spring into action as she rose urgently and without hesitation from her seat

A message from the Latinx community

Show Some Skin | Thursday, September 20, 2018

The use of Latinx is intended as a gender-neutral term. It is also used in contrast to Hispanics as a way to encompass anyone from Latin American origin or ancestry. It is in no way meant to offend anyone. Although not the official term, Latinxs is used as the plurality form of Latinx. The celebration

Dressing better makes a difference

Nicholas Marr | Friday, January 26, 2018

Earlier this week, a new columnist wrote about dressing well and lit a fire in the Viewpoint section, the likes of which any opinion columnist would be proud. Since there are two articles against her point, it is only fair to present another argument for why you should dress better for class, or for why

We’re all just talking past each other

Courtney Phelan | Wednesday, November 2, 2016

This summer, I took a theology course at Notre Dame. It was an introduction to Christian theology and started with the very basics: what is theology, what is God, how do we study theology, etc. One of the first things we learned is also one of the things that’s stuck with me the most. Our

The five tenets

Andrea Savage | Tuesday, November 1, 2016

“A black belt is a white belt that never quit,” — and that’s exactly what I was thinking as I stepped up and bowed to Master Lindeberg. It had taken me three years to get to this point, and my commitment to the art of taekwondo had grown from a bi-weekly family activity to a way of life.

Calling for accountability

Letter to the Editor | Tuesday, November 1, 2016

Dear President Jenkins, I am writing to express my profound disappointment at your presence (or lack thereof) at the poetry reading by Juan Felipe Herrera, the U.S. poet laureate. First, I was frustrated by the lack of attention you gave to correctly pronouncing our poet laureate’s name during your half-hearted introduction. Especially for someone as respected

Our unraveling discourse

Letter to the Editor | Friday, September 2, 2016

Jefferson’s flowery prose has wilted, King’s inspirational cadence has faded and Scott Key’s emotional lyrics have drifted past. The voices of our greatest achievements have largely been drowned out by a coarse cacophony of fragmented concerns. One of the areas through which progress can be evaluated is through the lens of how we perceive each

More respect than rivalry

Dennis Nemenz | Monday, October 26, 2015

A few weeks ago, our son invited my wife and I to accompany him to the Notre Dame versus Navy football game in South Bend. We were anticipating a full-fledged, if not closely contested, college football rivalry. What we experienced was much, much more, culminating in a day replete with hope, gratitude and pride —
