On my first official day off in India, I visited a leprosy colony. I know when I say “leprosy,” it likely evokes images of a biblical-era disease — something gruesome, something deadly. The stigma surrounding leprosy, or Hansen’s disease, is overwhelming, when in reality, it is a completely treatable and curable illness. Although India’s leprosy rates have been rapidly declining in recent years, it still accounts for a large majority of the global burden. Its prevalence among the impoverished and unhoused populations still warrants the existence of leprosy communities and colonies, although their need is readily diminishing. Soon, with enough luck and proper public health measures, leprosy should truly become a disease of the past.

During the first few weeks of the Notre Dame football season, the Irish defense emerged as a major concern. Conceding an average of nearly 35 points to Miami, Texas A&M and Purdue not only set the Irish miles back defensively from where they were last year, but also lost them two games right out of the gate.

When Marcus Freeman announced Notre Dame football’s six captains toward the end of fall camp, the biggest surprise on the list was transfer receiver Will Pauling. Through four seasons split between Cincinnati and Wisconsin, the Chicago native reeled in only nine touchdowns and just over 1,300 yards. So why was Pauling, the apparent fourth-option in his own position group, the lone skill position captain for the Irish? It came down to his innate ability to lead.

Summer has been officially over for months, yet it lingers with sporadic hits of warm weather a little longer than what we all would wish or recognize. Nothing gives this away more than footwear — specifically, flip flops (or as my Hawaiian friend calls them, slippers) which have made a recent surge in popularity all over the fashion industry. No brand has had a bigger impact than the Brazilian-born brand, Havaianas. Is this just a small carry-over of a summer fad that will die out once the Indiana wind hits, or are flip flops the new campus “it” shoe to be sporting?

Senior year I worked as a server at a catering company to make some extra money and gain work experience before college. I learned several things by being a server. First, I learned that people are exceptionally rude. The people I was serving probably wouldn’t have given me a second look if we met outside of work; however, the second I put on my apron, people took it as an invitation to talk down to me. Guests always started out the night polite, but on occasion some of them would get ruder as the night progressed. As a server, the worst thing you can tell someone is that you ran out of coffee.

She led me to the chair in front of the mirror and pushed me down onto it. I inhaled the scent of “essential feminine finery” and wrinkled my nose in disgust.

Most people’s lock screens hold some sort of meaning: family, friends, nature or something sentimental. What’s mine you (did not) ask? It was Emma Chamberlain.

On the strength of relentless pressure and clinical finishing, Notre Dame jumped out to a 3-1 halftime lead on its way to a critical 4-2 victory over non-conference foe Green Bay as it prepares for a daunting final stretch of the conference season. The victory improved the Irish’s record to 7-2-3, and the Phoenix of the Horizon League dropped to 4-5-1. Super-sub sophomore forward Stevie Dunphy capped the first-half offensive fireworks with a literal last-second strike after a perfect setup on the right wing by freshman forward Ren Sylvester. The goal was well-earned, as the Irish dominated the final 35 minutes of the half after the teams exchanged goals early in the contest.

With a cool rain bringing the temperatures down from the 80s, one might say that fall is finally here in South Bend. And with fall comes the typical autumnal activities: apple picking, cider, thick sweaters, soups and your go-to fall rewatch of a movie or show. For many, fall marks the official rewatch of the hit show “Gilmore Girls.” Oct. 5 marked the 25th anniversary of the pilot, starring Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel as the fast-talking, hilarious and lovable mother-daughter duo.

The average person thinks the Department of Motor Vehicles is just a government office that deals with vehicle licenses and registrations. This is how they hide. This is how they maintain control. The world doesn’t understand that the DMV is not a department at all. It is the headquarters of a shadowy syndicate that attempts to dictate history and control human behavior. Presidents, senators and billionaires all answer to the DMV. They are in the process of remaking society in a calculated act of bureaucratic terror.
