We said hello goodbye

Observer Editorial: Journalism matters

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past week, you’ve seen coverage of the 2020 presidential election. Many Americans turned to cable news channels such as CNN, MSNBC and Fox News for updates, hoping to hear the latest race calls and calculate the margins each candidate would need to win the electoral votes of a certain district or state.

Misinformation and the 2020 election

Election aftermath

If I were a student who stormed the field

In Notre Dame,

Healing for the holidays

I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’ll do it until I get there 

Remember, remember, the month of November

Where from here?

A short letter for tired students

Requiem for the common good

To “create a sense of human solidarity and concern for the common good that will bear fruit as learning becomes service to justice”; that part of the University mission statement formed my worldview as an undergraduate at Notre Dame. In emphasizing the common good, the line offers a necessary supplement to the ideals of liberal democracy that would place individual over community, freedom over equality, self-interest over collective interest. Sectarian beliefs should not take precedence in a democracy, but a religious principle can inform and deepen public understanding, especially when the principle easily translates into a truth that is accessible to people of all faiths and none. The common good is one such concept. It was that inspiring overlap between Notre Dame and nation that allowed me to read the words etched above the Basilica door not cynically but civically. “God, Country, Notre Dame” indeed.
