Rejecting ring by spring

Claire Lyons | Friday, April 14, 2023

If you don’t already know, “ring by spring” is the Christian college phenomenon whereby seniors feel pressured to get engaged to their college sweetheart before graduation, and our Catholic campus is apparently no exception to the rule.  According to a study by the Institute for Family Studies (IFS), Notre Dame has an above-average percentage of

Gay love laid ‘Bare’ in PEMCo’s fall show

Claire Lyons | Monday, December 5, 2022

As Congress was passing the Respect for Marriage Act last week, members of Pasquerilla East Musical Company (PEMCo) were hard at work preparing for their fall show, “Bare: A Pop Opera,” which features a closeted gay couple.  “Bare” is a rock-musical focusing on the secret lives of a group of private Catholic boarding school students.

Red flag reading

Emma Duffy | Sunday, October 30, 2022

Social media is full of comments on what books are acceptable to read. There are warnings plastered all across online platforms declaring that it is a red flag if someone likes “The Catcher in the Rye” by J.D. Salinger or “Gone Girl” by Gillian Flynn, maybe even “The Stranger” by Albert Camus. At the same

Everything I know about love in college 

Carolina Jiménez | Monday, September 12, 2022

Recently, I read “Everything I Know About Love” by Dolly Alderton, which I highly recommend reading before entering your twenties. I can’t say I have many experiences dabbling with love; however, I’ve always had this idea that I’ll meet this boy who would fix everything. It felt like finding this love would make life brighter.

‘We have but this one short life’: ‘Fire of Love’ sizzles at DPAC

Mark Valenzuela | Monday, September 5, 2022

When the unnatural destruction of France during World War II subsided, Katia and Maurice Krafft stepped out of the flames. Although they would not meet for another two decades, the couple experienced a mutual childhood ignition — the love of volcanoes sparked that within them.  Brilliantly juxtaposing the unnatural flames of human war with grandiose

Kate Casper | Friday, March 25, 2022

Nacho Cano, known by the name Harmless (formerly Twin Cabins), just released an EP entitled “Mr. Baby” following a slew of single releases over the past few years. While he is best known for the song “Swing Lynn,” which currently has over 130 million streams on Spotify, Cano’s latest project takes a much different approach

‘Death on the Nile’ is alluring, but lacks narrative quality

Marcelle Couto | Tuesday, February 22, 2022

A well-defined crime scene, a group of suspects with plenty of motives for murder and a stellar cast. “Death on the Nile,” the new adaptation of Agatha Christie’s novel, certainly shares many of the same ingredients that made “Murder on the Orient Express” such a success, but this version of the story is immediately set

‘Book of Love’: In the good books of romance movies

Rose Androwich | Thursday, February 10, 2022

Amazon Prime admittedly makes some questionable movies and original series as all streaming platforms do. However “Book of Love” was a genuinely enjoyable movie and one of the better romance movies to watch for the upcoming holiday. In the era of romance films with questionable quality, “Book of Love” is a standout. The plot of

A theory of love

Trevor Lwere | Monday, February 7, 2022

What is Love? Love is a commitment. What is commitment? Commitment is dedication to someone or something. What is love a commitment to? Love is a commitment to the life of its object. The object could be oneself or another self. So, you ask, what then is life? Life is a constant attempt at approximating

‘The Love Hypothesis’: TikTok made me read it

Christine Hilario | Monday, November 1, 2021

BookTok’s latest obsession is published “Reylo” fan fiction.  Popular fan fiction has been rebranded as original works of published fiction simply by changing the character names. Take “Fifty Shades of Grey” and “After,” for instance. Both book series started out as “Twilight” and One Direction fan fiction, respectively, and both series ended up garnering enough success

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.

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.
