The United Nations Security Council has backed an initiative led by the U.S. to establish a Board of Peace to oversee peace-building efforts in Gaza, but the recently-ratified charter extends above and beyond what was originally agreed upon.
Students at Saint Mary’s College will now have the option to be transported by a new ride service, advertising itself as an alternative to Blinkie, the College’s traditional van safety service for its students.
As head coach Micah Shrewsberry reflected after Tuesday’s double-overtime loss to the 16th-ranked Virginia Cavaliers, “We’re not into moral victories.”
The Irish are back in action this weekend as hockey prepares to host Bowling Green 7 p.m. on Friday at Compton Family Ice Arena as the Irish look for a second-consecutive win. The series will then conclude on Saturday night at Slater Family Ice Arena in Bowling Green.
Since returning to campus in mid-January, students have grown used to trekking through the snow-covered sidewalks to get to classes, particularly within the past week. While the weather hasn’t been severe enough for Notre Dame to cancel classes (which the University hasn’t done since 2022), that doesn’t mean the snow hasn’t affected students’ ability to attend classes. For students with mobility aids, the accumulation of snow and slush on the University’s sidewalks has posed significant barriers.
Has it never struck you how odd it is, our obsession with that we which we call your face?
Notre Dame hockey finally got off the schneid last weekend, picking up its first conference win in 14 tries. Now, the Irish (5-18-1, 1-13 Big Ten) welcome Bowling Green (14-6-4, 11-4-3 CCHA) for the first half of a home-and-home on Friday night. With the weight of a ten-game losing streak off their backs, has something changed in the Irish locker room? Can Notre Dame finally build some momentum?
Almost every day, I walk by a beautiful wood-carved panel in the Keenan-Stanford lobby. The panel was carved by Notre Dame’s beloved artist, Ivan Mestrovic, who also made the crucifix in the Keenan-Stanford chapel, the pieta in the St. Joseph chapel of the Basilica and Christ and the Samaritan woman at the well outside O’Shag, among other works of art on campus. The panel depicts Christ as a boy in the temple surrounded by Jewish rabbis. He stands and gestures with not a little bravado for a twelve-year-old among elder distinguished scholars, who appear confused and amazed at Christ.
Saint Mary’s College basketball has already eclipsed a new milestone, earning head coach Rob Hoffman a better record than last year; however, as they head into the final month of the season, new challenges lie ahead.
When Notre Dame lost by 15 points at home to Louisville last February, then second-year head coach Micah Shrewsberry stood firm in his conviction to rebuild his struggling basketball program, which eventually finished 15-18 in 2024-25 and 13-20 the prior season. “Don’t give up on these kids,” he implored in the post-game press conference, “I know I can coach basketball and I know I’m turning this program around.” Almost a year later, on Jan. 27, despite displaying immense grit and tenacity, Notre Dame lost at Purcell Pavilion to No. 17 Virginia 100-97, dropping the Irish to 0-11 against ranked AP opponents under Shrewsberry. In short, the team and its head coach desperately needed to break through on Tuesday night, but again fell short. While passionate displays during press conferences and post-game meltdowns with refs show you care, wins show you can coach basketball. Shrewsberry’s seat is growing hotter as his promises seemingly appear empty.
Heading into their spring season, the Saint Mary’s tennis team is more than ready to show similar results to their successful campaign last year.
I’m an engineer by trade, or perhaps by education, since I’m still unemployed. Yet despite the relief I feel after solving a particularly convoluted physics problem or logic gate diagram, I feel a much more notable sense of fulfillment upon the completion of a writing piece. Whether it be the technical reports associated with many a freshman engineering course, my biweekly column here with The Observer or an occasional voluntary article I’ll submit to the Wall Street Journal, writing has found its way into every corner of my life. Eventually, it will for you as well, no matter the major you choose.
A recent study conducted by The Observer analyzing Federal Election Commission data showed that political donations by Notre Dame professors to Democratic candidates and political action committees outnumber donations to Republican groups.
When the Irish welcomed No. 17 Virginia Cavaliers to a snowy South Bend on Tuesday night, the two programs were moving in complete opposite directions. The Irish (11-9) eked out a four-point win against Boston College (9-11) on Saturday night, halting a five-game losing streak. A 22-point effort from junior guard Braeden Shrewsberry propelled the Irish past the Eagles in a much-needed “get-right” game for Notre Dame.
Notre Dame women’s basketball returns to Purcell Pavilion on Wednesday night to continue conference play against California. The Irish enter the matchup sitting at No. 9 in the ACC, with the regular season beginning to wind down and each game carrying added weight.
On Tuesday, Jan. 27, Bradley Birzer, a member of the Notre Dame Class of 1990 and professor of history at Hillsdale College, spoke to a packed auditorium in the Mendoza College of Business auditorium on the inspirations of the American founding in a lecture titled “How Anglo-Saxons and Celts Remade the World in 1776: Thomas Jefferson and Adam Smith.”
On our way home from a Saturday-night dinner on Eddy Street last weekend, my friends and I ran into a couple of American freshmen looking to convince passersby that they were Irish international students. We quickly became sidetracked, compelled to inform our new, heavily-accented friends that they needed to wear coats and gloves over their sweatshirts if they were going to stand outside in a polar vortex. They asked why we were acting like their mothers; we laughed and left them to their freezing activities.
The film “The Rip,” starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, follows a group of detectives in Miami navigating a high-stakes criminal investigation. Damon and Affleck portray cop partners Lieutenant Dane Dumars (referred to as “L.T.”) and Detective Sergeant J.D. Byrne, respectively. After receiving a suspicious tip, they arrive at a house where they find, in a gloomy attic, $20 million stolen by the cartel. Eventually, tensions rise as the team counts the money because they originally expected to find drugs, but more importantly, also because of the recent murder of their captain (Jackie). Mistrust grew as characters were suspicious of each other’s motives, since a large sum would be incredibly tempting to hide for themselves or breach the power dynamic within the team. Throughout the film, I didn’t know who I was supposed to be rooting for, which truly kept me on the edge of my seat.
Harry Styles is back. And he’s gone to the club.
On Jan. 27, the Nanovic Institute for European Studies hosted its annual Holocaust Remembrance Day lecture. The United Nations designated Jan. 27 as Holocaust Remembrance Day in 2005, which marked the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camp.
