Why I march

Divestment is not the answer

Following the announcement last month that 40 Catholic institutions have agreed to divest from all fossil fuels, a recent letter to the editor in The Observer called on Notre Dame to follow suit and divest as well.

(Re: Step it up, please) How about tone it down?

Ah, the first day of school. I started the day knowing that my sixth semester of college was one of the eight most important semesters of my undergraduate career. It was the day that I would finally reconnect with those who decided to leave the country rather than continue to enjoy the booming metropolis that is South Bend, Indiana. With this in mind, I gladly woke up for my alarm set for 20 minutes before my class started, threw on a pair of leggings, a freshly unfolded T-shirt, running shoes, topped off with a messy bun and just made it to class with enough time to stop by the ABP cart for a muffin. Life was good.
