More than a season, autumn marks the arrival of the fall aesthetic. Yes, I think we all know what that means. Whether it’s rewatching “Harry Potter” or “Gilmore Girls,” ordering a pumpkin spiced latte or switching up your wardrobe for cozy hues of orange, tan and brown, most of us — myself included — have been, in one way or another, participants in this unspoken ritual.
Spooky season is officially over, and I’ve spent the first five days of November mourning the fact that it's no longer socially acceptable to be constantly eating candy. Gone are the times when I filled awkward silences by asking people what they’re dressing up as for Halloween, so be prepared to tell me what you’re thankful for instead. Major props to anyone who made it out of Halloweekend alive. But that being said, there were still some clear winners and losers from this holiday.

In my lifetime, the world seems to have done several turnarounds on what they think about “Twilight.”
The United States has long been a global leader in science, technology and education. American tech companies continue to drive global growth and innovation, and American universities, including Notre Dame, are consistently ranked among the world’s best. In achieving this success, both technology companies such as Google, Apple and Open AI and universities have relied on H-1B visas to recruit foreign talent.

While “Gabby’s Dollhouse: the Movie” is not based on real dolls, I felt that the movie had an opportunity to take a similar approach that the Barbie movie did. I appreciated the transportation of Gabby to the dollhouse and directly playing in it because it reminded me much of playing with dolls in my childhood. However, the Barbie movie had a much stronger feminist message that inspired audiences and upgraded it from what could have been a very childish movie. Many parents and older viewers accompanied children to see this film, especially those who watched the series during its original popularity. Leaning into nostalgia with a subtle acknowledgment of growing up or a storyline that bridged childhood imagination with real-world change could have elevated it beyond a literal playtime adventure. Thus, I felt the film seemed hesitant to offer deeper meaning or emotional takeaway, instead relying on bright colors, predictable morals and cheerful songs. However, this is not inherently negative, but it does mean the film leaves little space for larger commentary or growth. It felt content staying safe, which makes it charming for kids, but forgettable for adults.
Navy will travel to South Bend this weekend to face off against Notre Dame in front of a sold-out crowd. This will be the 98th matc up between the two teams, and this year’s edition has a lot riding on it, as a loss for both teams would eliminate them from College Football Playoff contention.

On a windy afternoon in Boston, the now No. 10 Fighting Irish topped their rival Eagles by a score of 25-10. In a game where many Notre Dame fans were expecting utter domination, the team struggled to amass much control over its much inferior opponent. Heading into the matchup, the two teams had been trending in completely opposite directions. Boston College won their first game of the season against Fordham, but rattled off seven consecutive losses heading into Saturday’s Holy War. As for the Irish, dropping games one and two had been followed by a five-game winning streak, including a win over rival USC last time out. Despite this underwhelming performance on Saturday in Beantown, there were still hopeful trends that Irish fans should feel confident about heading into Navy week.
Over the last week and a half, I have scrupulously avoided asking people about their fall break. To do so would have entailed giving a reciprocal explanation of what I did. I would have had to explain how fall break, spring break’s less-glamorous cousin, saw me sweating it out at a dissertation boot camp in Hesburgh Library. I would have groaned. I would have griped. I would have cursed in my head while marveling outwardly at how much work I got done. Thankfully, it’s November now. So people don’t care about fall break anymore.
