Fall has arrived — and girls, it’s time for a wardrobe change. We all know the transition between summer and fall is not an easy feat. As you pack up your vibrant summer attire, you must not pack style up with it. Oftentimes when the weather gets chillier, all we want to do is throw

Tuning: a message from the Notre Dame music scene

Mike Donovan | Thursday, September 26, 2019

Lights (red, blue) flicker-flashed over the fence, waving an aggressive hello to (a) the night sky and (b) the hundreds of students gathered within its perimeter. It was the noise — some fuzzy, some funky, some fishy, all of it loud — that drew the lights to our compound, and it was the noise (the

Mike Donovan | Friday, May 17, 2019

After a few good weeks cruising along the “Old Town Road,” it’s time to take a turn down memory lane. Return to late summer 2015, when the class of 2019 first arrived on campus.

Little Simz is unapologetically herself on ‘GREY Area’

Patrick Witteman | Friday, March 29, 2019

Why I write for Scene

Dessi Gomez | Friday, March 22, 2019

Some people might think the Scene section of The Observer is easier to write for than other sections, or that it is not very journalistic because we spend most of our time writing music and movie reviews. But I’m going to refute that claim. I think Scene is, in its own way, a very valid
