With the cool outdoor breeze, the flowing water in the background and the microphone-less actors, one could mistake Not-So Royal Shakespeare’s production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” for the Globe Theater itself with the Thames off to the side. Perched on Holy Cross Hill next to Saint Mary’s Lake, six actors took on 20 character roles and, surprise to many in the audience, pulled it off amazingly.

On Friday, April 17, Ali Stroker, joined by music director and pianist Nate Patten, offered a wonderful night of stories and songs at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center.

No. 3 Notre Dame received the coveted double-bye, along with Wake Forest, Virginia and Stanford, granting the teams an automatic spot in the quarterfinals.

In honor of my last hurrah before graduation (my final piece in the Observer), I thought I’d close with four small takeaways from college. While I’m no one to give advice, I think they may speak to more than just the professional.

I am not one for student politics. This I found out my freshman year of college, at another elite Midwestern university. A debate between two presidential tickets for a prominent Latino student group on campus turned nasty. It was telenovela-style drama, with accounts of backstabbing, crying from audience members and sexual jealousies rolled into one. The new guard clashing with the old guard, more or less. Those in attendance left the debate either wildly upset or luridly entertained, in that sort of greasy way you get from watching ‘Jerry Springer’.

President Donald Trump’s Executive Order 14290 in May 2025 declared that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting needed to cease its NPR and PBS funding, deeming it “outdated and unnecessary” for them to receive government funding.

Thursday, season two of “The Pitt” finally concluded, and though not as good as the first season, there were still a lot of incredible moments. Unlike the last season, there are no major mass casualty events. Instead, several things that cause major issues for the cast keep recurring, though none of them last more than two episodes. As an audience member, it started to feel like a way to get people coming back week after week. When the hospital goes offline, it does not seem to affect things that much, aside from a few jokes about how kids these days can not read cursive. Which, by the way, we can.
