I remember my first day of class at the University of Notre Dame vividly. I stood swaying in the blustery wasteland at the intersection of Debart and Fitzpatrick, clutching a note card in my hand with information on my classes and their starting times scribbled frenziedly. I was five minutes late, and despite numerous Google

Most of my life gets planned out on yellow legal pads. I find comfort in plans, to-do lists and spreadsheets, and have been known to get physically uncomfortable when I don’t know what’s coming. So, no; I was not expecting this week to go very well for me I feel as though I’m in limbo

Before my Notre Dame Google account goes away this summer, I need to do some file transfers. At the top of my to-do list is saving my Google Drive. My files are organized by semester, and they are essentially my academic life. Here are some of the ones I’ll save: Semester one: Short essays for

11:45 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 26, 2015. That was the moment that forever changed how I viewed the work done in the basement of South Dining Hall by the wonderful people who work for The Observer. It started with a simple statement: “People are saying Fr. Ted died on Twitter.” I don’t remember who exactly said

No matter what the denizens of Scene past will tell you, the class of 2017 is a special one. Notoriously banned for writing music reviews during their freshman year in an attempt to publish articles on someone besides Kanye West, this year’s Scene-iors are perhaps the most in-tune in the section’s history. They can be

I have no idea, but I did recently catch the campus equivalent of the bubonic plague and have been trapped in my cinderblock home for the past 58 hours. This flu has wrecked me despite how high my blood-OJ content is. Besides taking time to figure out just how many bugs are stuck in my lighting

Hi, I’m applying for the position, you know, the one posted online. That’s the one. I’m a senior, yes. Just a kid really. I’m interested in your full time position, the first real job I’ll ever have, and I’m horribly unprepared. How did I hear about the position? Desperately scouring the internet for anyone who

Over the past three years here as an Observer photographer, I’ve probably taken at least 10,000 shots for news and sports events. Working here has given me the privilege to visit unique campus locations and get a glimpse of the unseen life at Notre Dame. I feel more connected to this place than most students, and I’m

Interviews: the bane of every college senior’s existence. (Well, unless you were lucky enough to have an offer from the summer already. If that’s the case, please stop complaining about all the work you have to do). Ever since the career fair in September, in addition to my full load of coursework, I have had

ERIN RICE | The Observer Nothing gets me more jazzed up than fashion. Oh man, fashion? To me that’s just like a … thing that I know a bunch about. I don’t want to brag, but I pretty much made double-sided belts happen. You don’t need to thank me, America, for saving you from ever
