Letter to the Editor | Monday, March 2, 2020

Notre Dame does much good for our community. And South Bend, a city that is 26% African American and 15% Hispanic, has a future being quietly crushed.

How being Yelp Elite burst my Notre Dame bubble

Teagan Dillon | Wednesday, May 2, 2018

Last summer, while living in New York City, I posted my first Yelp review ever. A slightly satirical and exaggerated review, I graciously gave Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer five stars. Fifty-eight reviews, 56 check-ins and 236 friends later, what started out as a joke quickly turned into an obsession that only continued when

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.

On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the polls and elect their new student body president. A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
