Letter to the Editor | Thursday, February 10, 2022

A Letter to the Editor published on Feb. 7 highlighted some of the percolating frustrations among the student body concerning vaccine and booster mandates. This was a refreshing opinion piece, because while I see these same frustrations being talked about on the national level, rarely have I seen students willing or able to discuss them

Pandemic culture war

Krista Lourdes Akiki | Tuesday, October 26, 2021

I have noticed that in the past couple of months everyone around me seems to speak of the pandemic in the past tense. This is particularly true within the Notre Dame bubble. We’ve all been ecstatic at the idea of a normal semester. But we seem to forget that this situation does not mirror itself

Trading hand sanitizer for haircuts

Ellie Konfrst | Tuesday, April 20, 2021

If you’re a friend of mine, a family member, or honestly anyone who’s interacted with me in the last few weeks, I’ve probably asked you the same unanswerable question: Should I cut my hair? It’s always the same conversation. I feel like I need a change, but I like being able to braid and style

What didn’t make the cut

Renee Yaseen | Monday, April 12, 2021

Rejection letters. We all get them, we all hate them. This week, I stumbled upon Rejection Letters, a literary magazine that publishes … fictional rejection letters.

Mike Donovan | Wednesday, April 26, 2017

If you were to take a tour of my headspace, you’d probably get lost in the vast collection of pop culture references, meticulously organized to describe the effects of hopeless romanticism and sporadic solipsism on my otherwise pleasant life.
