Thirty-two dorms on the university’s campus means 32 proud rectors excited to share the stories of some of their most successful, selfless and determined residents. Scholastic has asked these rectors to reveal who they find to be a remarkable representation of their dorm and the values of service, academic achievement and leadership that these dorms hold. This issue, Fr. Schimmel of Dunne Hall and Leah Kicinski of Walsh Hall have recommended the following students.
On Sept. 3, the 2022 Notre Dame football season kicked off against the Ohio State Buckeyes.
Among the crowd in the third-largest on-campus national football stadium were Notre Dame students who had traveled four hours to watch the game.
Senior Katie Nolan was one such student who decided to attend the Ohio State game. “It's my senior year and I honestly just wanted to maximize the season,” Nolan said. …
Two years after Notre Dame’s momentous defeat of Clemson during the 2020 season, the unranked Fighting Irish and No. 4 Tigers matched up again. The two games, while both resulting in an Irish win, were far from similar home game experiences. A cloudless, sunny day with a high of 72 degrees, Nov. 7, 2020 was an anomaly in more ways than one in South Bend. …
As everyone knows, the best way to find your spouse is to fill out an online form sent via mass email. Earlier this November, many students of the university found an email in their inbox about the Notre Dame Marriage Pact. The email included a link to a brief questionnaire that asked questions about the participant’s future plans, political affiliation, personality and everything in between. On Nov. 7, a few days after the questionnaire went live, the Notre Dame students who filled it out received the name of their match and a compatibility score from 0% to 100%. But what the students of Notre Dame experienced is only a small part of a much larger picture. …
Snow has fallen, lights are up and it is time to start celebrating the holiday season! Notre Dame students come from a variety of religious and cultural backgrounds, and they have plenty of different holiday traditions for this season.
Aubree Davis, a junior from Kaneohe, Oahu, mixes her Hawaiian culture with her Catholic faith and celebrates Christmas Hawaiian style. She looks forward to seeing the Christmas light display at city hall, where all the Christmas decorations are “Hawaiian-ified.” She said that Santa is “usually barefoot, throwing a Shaka, just to go with the way that things are on the island — very lowkey, go-with-the-flow.” …

The bike-in-tree phenomenon at Notre Dame is not new; discover some possible explanations for this continued tradition.
Here's the review everyone is waiting for: Trader Joe's fall foods.
Season 3 manages to raise the stakes while deftly avoiding the classic superhero pitfall of bloating the show’s universe with greater and greater threats using one simple trick: disrupting how the characters address the conflicts before them.
For those expecting a continuation of Swift’s indie-pop “Folklore” and “Evermore,” “Midnights” was a stark departure, aligning with the tones of “1989,” “Reputation,” and “Lover.” Swift experimented with background sounds and different drum bases.
“This is not about me. This is not about one person. It’s about this whole family. If you wanna go fast go alone, if you wanna go far go together,” said Manti Te’o, former Notre Dame football star and NFL linebacker for the San Diego Chargers, when he returned to campus on Saturday, Sept. 17 to support the Fighting Irish in their game against Cal. Although I was standing in the sweltering gameday heat, Te’o’s spirited words gave me goosebumps, especially as I recalled the emotional struggles and adversity he had faced throughout his collegiate and NFL football career, portrayed in the 2022 two-part Netflix documentary Untold: The Girlfriend Who Didn’t Exist…
Florence Pugh, Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde have been in the tabloids for months in the lead up to the release of Wilde’s film “Don’t Worry Darling,” starring Pugh and Styles. News surrounding the film was heated from the start when Wilde decided that Shia LeBouf ’s style of acting wasn’t “conducive with the ethos of her productions,” and LeBouf was fired from what then became Styles’ role. LeBouf released texts and videos to prove Wilde had actually asked him to stay on the film. Drama heightened after the recent Venice Film Festival, when Styles and Wilde were never pictured together, Pugh did not appear in front of the press and Styles was accused of spitting on co-star Chris Pine. But how was the actual movie? …

The closing of Recker’s after the first semester of my freshman year was momentous for several reasons. It forced us to find a new late-night food spot, sure, and deprived my friends and I — living in McGlinn, a short walk to the rear of South Dining Hall and the chicken tenders and fries it held — of a convenient post-going out gathering place. But more than that, though we did not yet know it, it was indicative of the years to come and the changes that would befall campus, and particularly, its eateries. …
In memoriam of the dorms that are not here with us today.
Though Notre Dame’s official colors are blue and gold, another favorite color for Fighting Irish fans is green. This year, the Irish wore green jerseys for the first time since 2018 in a matchup against Cal. As the Fighting Irish football team stepped out in green, the student body did too, sporting green clothes, green shoes, and, of course, green pom poms. …
As the end of the school year quickly approaches, the stress of finals and the longing for a relaxing vacation grow stronger every day. We may have a few more weeks to go before we are home-free, but this April, for a glorious five days, Notre Dame students were gifted an early taste of summer: SunTostal.
In many ways it’s a timeless story of ambition and hard work, of old ways clashing with new, of young people making mistakes, and of messy, complicated family dynamics. However, HBO Max’s “The Gilded Age” is an intriguing, nuanced peak inside life in 1882 New York City.
Please don’t stop the music, Duncan Student Center. Such is what I thought as “Don’t Stop the Music” by Rihanna played throughout the building. Yet, with a quick turnaround that only Duncan Student Center is capable of, “You Found Me” by The Fray followed Rihanna’s 2007 smash hit because who doesn’t like to cry when completing their homework?
The first line of the Ukrainian national anthem, junior and president of the Notre Dame Ukrainian Society Maryna Chuma said, is “Ukraine has not died yet.”
Although a federal holiday since 1983, this Jan. 17 was the first time Notre Dame officially recognized Martin Luther King Jr. Day as a university holiday for all students, faculty and staff.
My hair is particularly sensitive to the products I use. And, for some reason, the different scents of Dove conditioner have varying effects on the sheer size of my hair.
When considering where to go to school, I didn’t think too much about distance from home. My main concerns were about the university’s community, values and tradition.
Netflix’s latest star-studded, action-packed movie, “The Adam Project,” dropped on the streaming platform on March 11 and has been met with mixed reviews.
“Euphoria” is hot right now. As the most-tweeted show of the decade so far, the second-most-watched HBO Max show behind “Game of Thrones,” and popular “Euphoria” Sundays where friends stream together, the show has undoubtedly developed a cult following.
As Chick-fil-A celebrated its grand opening on Feb. 10, the Duncan Student Center was buzzing. The fast food restaurant took the place of Star Ginger, the former Asian cuisine establishment.
I’ve always been pretty keen on birthdays. I think they serve as a wonderful excuse to reflect on a year’s worth of shared memories or to reach out to those with whom you’ve lost touch. Ironically, however, my own annual celebration does not pique my interest quite as much.
Let’s not beat around the bush here: “Dune” is boring.
