This past Friday, the Notre Dame men’s and women’s cross country teams travelled down to Louisville, Kentucky, for the 2025 Atlantic Coast Conference Championships, and both left the meet with top-five team finishes.
As many of my fellow off-campus students know, food is expensive. The advice I constantly receive, which I’m sure most of us can relate to, is to “cook everything at home.” I constantly hear: “Groceries are so much cheaper than takeout!” “You’ll feel much better if you make it yourself!” “Home-cooked meals are healthier!” And technically, all of this is true.
Now that we have all recovered from the frights of Halloweekend, it’s time to bury our costumes in the backs of drawers, toss out any straggling jack-o-lanterns and start mentally preparing for the next big holiday: Thanksgiving. Many of us are already dreaming about catching the quickest plane, bus or car back home in time for a cozy, home-cooked Thanksgiving dinner. There, we’ll gather with family and friends as healthy portions of turkey, stuffing and politics are inevitably served.
Two months since 2,100 freshmen arrived on campus for Welcome Weekend, the members of the class of 2029 have reached the midway point of their first semester of college. With midterm season over and Thanksgiving fast approaching, Notre Dame freshmen have had some time to reflect on their first few months on campus.
This is the second installment of Meghan Sullivan’s series about DELTA, Notre Dame’s faith-based framework for a world of powerful AI.
Being a tour guide at the University of Notre Dame is one of the most sought-after campus jobs, with roughly 100 guides on call. Football weekends are full of prospective students and families, many taking advantage of programming from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
Notre Dame hockey struggled to find the back of the net in a weekend series at Compton Family Ice Arena, falling to Michigan 5-3 on Friday and 2-1 in overtime on Saturday. The Irish generated scoring chances throughout both games but were unable to consistently convert against a disciplined and efficient Wolverines roster. Notre Dame is now 3-4-1 overall and 0-2-0 in Big Ten play, while Michigan improved to 9-1 and 2-0 in conference competition.
On the first weekend of fall break, the Saint Mary’s College theater department organized a trip to New York for theater majors and minors as well as fashion and costume minors to see some Broadway shows. This was my first time seeing anything on Broadway and my first time in New York, outside of the airport at least. On the first night, one group saw “Death Becomes Her” while the other saw “Wicked.” On Saturday afternoon, one group saw “Six” while the other saw “Chicago.” That evening, there were three shows. One group saw “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child,” another saw “The Great Gatsby,” and the third saw “Six.”
Between missed extra points, muffed punts and failed punt fakes, special teams had an afternoon to forget in windy Boston. While the Irish ultimately earned the 25-10 victory against Boston College, their special teams unit had glaring problems in the kicking department. The Irish went 1-for-3 on extra points between three kickers and had other notable issues that must be solved if this team is to make the College Football Playoff.
Socialism is a political and economic theory that states the community, rather than individuals, should own and control the means of production. Now, that is a blanket definition — and like most things, it’s just not that simple. There’s revolutionary socialism (closest to Marxism), democratic socialism and social democracy. Most strands of socialism advocate at the very least for a mixed economy. In observing the New York City mayoral election, I’ve noticed that socialism and communism seem to be utilized as political slurs. Mamdani describes himself as a democratic socialist, yet the ‘c’ word seems to be thrown around to describe him. Mamdani is not advocating a centrally planned economy; thus, he cannot be a communist. As a democratic socialist, he definitely has socialist elements to his political philosophy, but if communism and revolutionary socialism are far-left, a democratic socialist is creeping far closer to the center of the political scale.
With less than a minute remaining in the third quarter on Saturday in Chestnut Hill, Mass., Notre Dame was staring at a potentially season-crushing upset at the hands of one-win Boston College. After struggling in all three phases for nearly three quarters of an hour, the Irish offense had the ball leading by two after a nearly 12-minute Eagles scoring drive. Notre Dame was in desperate need of points and leadership. Both were needed fast to save the season and continue the College Football Playoff push.
Going from high school to college, we are expected to be in tune with our social life. This means hanging out with friends when you don’t have work to catch up on, studying with them, going out to parties and regularly planning and talking to one another on a somewhat daily basis. But what if that wasn’t the case? What if you have a group of friends, but you don’t hang out much or talk to them regularly? What if you don’t like parties and would rather spend time relaxing and turning on a movie to unwind from the week?

This morning, I attended the 9:30 a.m. Mass at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart, which celebrated the Commemoration of All Souls, one of the most popular and characteristic Catholic feasts. For this Mass, the rector of the Basilica — Fr. Brian Ching — presided as celebrant, and the Notre Dame Liturgical Choir, along with a small orchestra, performed the famous “Requiem in D Minor” by W. A. Mozart. I have several students who sing in the Liturgical Choir, so I knew that they had been preparing for this day for quite some time. In fact, I had known since my orientation as a new faculty member in August that the Liturgical Choir was planning this great musical work for Nov. 2: Fr. Ching had told me about these plans himself, while the Congregation of Holy Cross warmly welcomed the new faculty into Corby Hall for a lovely reception and dinner. I was impressed by the joyful and collaborative spirit that Fr. Ching exuded when speaking of the work of the Liturgical Choir, and I recognized it as the same kind of spirit I witnessed in his predecessor, the Fr. Peter Rocca, when I worked as a musician at the Basilica myself. “Not much has changed,” I thought to myself, and the warm memories returned.
Saint Mary’s Belles Unite Borders (BUBs) hosted Andrea Cramer, the founder of Neighbor to Neighbor, a local nonprofit organization that seeks to raise awareness for immigrants and refugees, on Thursday evening at Haggar College Center.

Over the weekend, the Notre Dame men’s soccer team traveled to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, to take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on Halloween night. They suffered a 3-0 loss and with it fell to 8-5-4 on the season and 3-3-2 in Atlantic Coast Conference play. This now places them as the No. 8 seed heading into the ACC Tournament, where they will host No. 9 seed North Carolina on Wednesday night.
The Joffrey Ballet, based out of Chicago, performed a series of shows this past weekend while in residence at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center. First was “Broken Wings,” followed by an intermission and a performance of “Wabash & You.”
Following the bye week, Notre Dame headed east to face the 1-7 Boston College Eagles. The contest marked the first of three consecutive road tests for the Irish. In the look-ahead spot, the Marcus Freeman team won a physical victory against the scrappy and starving Eagles to move to 6-2 and keep its playoff hopes alive. Here are key moments that defined the win.
