On Tuesday, March 17, general manager of the Indianapolis Colts Chris Ballard signed University of Notre Dame men’s basketball graduate Carson Towt. While having numerous years of basketball under his belt, Towt does not have any experience on the football field. While this decision may come as a surprise to most, this is not the first time the Colts have signed a basketball player. Most recently, they signed VCU basketball graduate Mo Alie-Cox in 2017, though Alie-Cox had high school football experience.

“What is Notre Dame football, and why is it so important to everyone on campus?” A question that I asked myself when I arrived on campus for the first time back in 2023.

The film awards season is both exciting and exhausting. It’s a time to watch your favorite filmmakers and actors receive awards that are authoritative testaments to their excellence, but it’s also a time for insufferable discourse and tribalism that turns cinephilia into a deeply politicized endeavor. This past awards season finally concluded Sunday evening with the 2026 Oscars. The dramatic narratives heading into the ceremony — Paul Thomas Anderson’s long-overdue Oscar, the populist enthusiasm behind “Sinners” and Timothée Chalamet’s brazen quest for a best actor win — made for one of the more exciting ceremonies in recent years. So now that the dust has settled for a few days, did the academy get it right?

With the Oscars quickly approaching, I decided it was time to stop procrastinating and watch the animated short and feature-length films that have been nominated. Once again, the Browning Cinema at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center had multiple different screenings of the shorts, and I ended up seeing the last showing earlier this afternoon. All five nominated shorts were screened as well as a bonus short film called “Èiru,” which I would highly recommend.

Germany is in crisis. The Alternative for Deutschland, the German far-right party, has climbed in popularity, while almost every other political party has declined in support. It is currently neck and neck in the polls with the CDU/CSU, Germany’s center-right political alliance. The AfD, which has been classified as “right extremist” by Germany’s domestic intelligence agency and which was caught discussing plans with neo-Nazis to deport German citizens descended from migrant groups, is a threat, but currently has no path to power. German political parties, institutions and the general public have all refused to cooperate with the AfD, denying them the ability to put their anti-democratic policies into practice. Germany is in crisis, and the Germans know it and act like it. This is miles away from how the United States has responded to a growing ideology that devalues life and is incompatible with democracy and Catholicism.

Philosophy has always been an unconventional choice for a major — at least within my social circle. Everyone I know has opted for a more traditional route — pursuing finance, business analytics, or economics — my entire family included. That being said, I’ve watched my brothers pursue successful careers in private equity, and most of my friends land jobs at top-tier investment banking firms — the ultimate step for Wall Street aspirants. And, while I am well aware that their initial base salaries are way beyond what I could ever dream of, I don’t regret my choice at all.

The six months after the assassination of Charlie Kirk have allowed me to reflect on its lessons with the gift of time. When conservative activist and podcaster Charlie Kirk was killed on Sept. 10, 2025, it sent shockwaves through the United States and the world. To me, it seemed that the mounting polarization had finally reached its pinnacle, and as I watched the media, politicians and the country in the following days, I was waiting for something miraculous to happen. I was waiting for unity. Yet, no one could agree on anything.

Like the majority of Notre Dame students, Notre Dame baseball spent their spring break away from campus. However, rather than lounging at the beach or resting with family at home, the squad was hard at work on the road.
