There were two spots left, yet three very similar teams had strong arguments for those spots. The College Football Playoff committee had an incredibly tough choice to make, knowing that whatever decision it made was going to produce controversy.

Despair. Disappointment. Disbelief. Those were among the words ESPN’s Jen Lada used to describe the emotions inside Notre Dame’s football facility as the Irish hopelessly saw their national championship dreams slip away on TV. Not on the field, but behind closed doors, with no real rationale or consistency to support the arbitrary decision-making of the 12-member College Football Playoff committee.

“Kill Bill” was the fourth film made by Quentin Tarantino. Well, that depends on who you ask. Due to its problematic length, discovered when editing the footage, producers placed pressure on the filmmaker to cut his project into two parts so that Tarantino could not only retain all of the scenes that he loved, but also let each half of the film shine on its own. Thus, “Kill Bill: Vol. 1” was released in theaters in October 2003 as Tarantino’s fourth theatrical release, and “Kill Bill: Vol. 2” was released in April 2004 as his fifth. Though each film rightfully received heaps of praise and box office glory, I watched both films and was left unconvinced. I loved the aesthetic of each project in its own way, but I could not help but feel that each did not have enough weight to substantiate its existence. As a result of this, I left both films feeling like I had an incomplete experience. It was not until I witnessed this great saga in its original, uncut version that I fully understood the masterpiece that Tarantino had crafted. “Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair” is how viewers were meant to experience this story, and it was worth the wait.

The Supreme Court has nine justices, but its decisions impact the entire nation. In recent times, there have been a plethora of controversial and social policy-shaping decisions — the overturning of Roe v. Wade and the striking down of affirmative action among them. Do these positions reflect a changing society? Or simply a change in who is in power?

It’s the most wonderful time of the year … for those who are not in the trenches with finals. As a freshman, I am just now experiencing the struggle every college student faces in December: a lack of Yuletide joy. I have learned that in order to rekindle my Christmas spirit I must go back to my roots and watch the holiday classics. One of the most ridiculous yet endearing Christmas specials from my childhood is the animated “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer” from 2000. Unfortunately, many people do not know of this masterpiece.

Last weekend, employees at a Virginia liquor store discovered destruction and desolation to an extent rarely seen. Bottles broken, spirits spilled, hooch in havoc. After extremely sophisticated forensic analysis, employees determined the culprit to be an extraordinarily intoxicated raccoon. Many people sent me articles from a variety of learned publications covering the raccoon’s rum rampage, showing photos from the unfortunate scene. From The Washington Post to rural regional TV channels, people couldn’t get enough of the plastered trash panda.

I like to tell people that the vibe my roommate and I are going for in our room is “hotel lobby core.” A mishmash of soft lighting, neutral colorways and a vague, permeating scent of fresh laundry are the defining features of our capacious 1-room double. People seem to enjoy it too. Family, friends and friends of friends, all of whom, upon walking through the door, proffer a multitude of compliments and promptly take a seat on our fold-out futon.

Heine Borel and the Finite Subcovers began in 2022 as a joke when a group of honors math majors were learning about the Heine-Borel theorem in a class during fall of their sophomore year. While hanging out outside of class, they realized they shared musical talents and joked about forming a band. In the spring semester, this dream became a reality.

I was disheartened to read in The Observer last month that Howard Hall, where I lived for all four of my undergraduate years, will be shut down next summer. It pains me to contribute to the ancient, tired tradition of alumni writing angry letters, but the destruction of our nest, I think, entitles us Ducks to a few curmudgeonly words.
