O’Boyle: Players and fans lose out in Thursday Night Football

Daniel O'Boyle | Thursday, April 12, 2018

For more than 600 Thursday nights, Club Fever stood as a light in downtown South Bend to the world. After tonight, Michiana’s self-proclaimed “hottest nightclub” will be no more.

Gabriel Niforatos | Monday, January 29, 2018

Spending winter break in New Mexico, you notice things. Of course there is the characteristic smell right when you step off the plane, tired from the three-hour flight and mentally exhausted from studying for the finals push you just went through.
