Can the Irish defense survive SEC football with the season on the line?
(09/26/25 4:00am)
Marcus Freeman held an “uncomfortable” meeting for the Irish defensive staff on Tuesday following the 56-30 win against Purdue. Knowing the challenge and stakes of the next contest against a top-five offense in Arkansas, Freeman’s meeting was aimed at unifying the staff and belief in the system.

And if we separate, it’s not going to be good for anybody.”
The inimitable charm of Robert Redford
(09/26/25 4:00am)
This past summer, my hometown’s local library was screening “All the President’s Men” — Alan J. Pakula’s 1976 political thriller about reporters chasing the truth of the Watergate scandal. I went and took my seat among the handful of older men and women as the lights dimmed in silence. Minutes later, New Hollywood’s golden boy, Robert Redford, first appeared on the screen, portraying the Washington Post’s investigative reporter Bob Woodward.

India deserves better than untrained medical volunteers
(09/26/25 4:00am)
I am somewhat known for having a short temper. Although I would like to consider myself patient and measured, I don’t think anyone would draw likeness between me and Mother Teresa, whose organization I worked at this summer. I spent eight weeks living in Kolkata, India, through an Institute for Social Concerns fellowship working with the Missionaries of Charity at their Kalighat Home for the Dying and Destitute. Kalighat served functionally as a hospice center for those living on the streets and in the slums, ideally offering a place to die with dignity. Icons and emblems of Mother Teresa were all over the walls, in every enclave and corner, serving as a constant symbol of peace and calm, and yet my short temper still prevailed.
