Students react to the reversal of Roe v. Wade

Emma Duffy | Monday, September 5, 2022

On June 24, 2022, Dobbs v. Jackson overturned the precedent set in Roe v. Wade. In the original Roe v. Wade decision, the U.S. Supreme Court established that women have the right to privacy with their doctor, and therefore states could not interfere with a woman’s choice to get an abortion. Dobbs v. Jackson ruled

Anti-abortion is not pro-life

Letter to the Editor | Thursday, March 25, 2021

To be anti-abortion is to not be pro-life. More often than not, pro-lifers I have met have not been so vocal about causes like education, income equity and healthcare as they have been about their hypocrisy and moral superiority. There is nothing Christian about restricting healthcare and chastising women who are faced with an impossible

Last month, Lou Holtz spoke at the Republican National Convention. During his speech he called out former Vice President Biden for his support of abortion rights and lauded President Trump’s pro-life agenda.

Response to ‘The twilight zone’

Bridget Kelley | Thursday, January 30, 2020

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.
