For many Notre Dame residence hall communities, hall election season is a time of joy, excited anticipation and hope for the future. However, for one community, this year’s elections led to unprecedented unrest, disruptions and unease. The Coyle Community in Zahm Hall (formerly Fisher Community in…
In response to increasing safety concerns, Notre Dame Police Department (NDPD) has announced they are shifting to a new procedure for the 2026-2027 academic school year. All campus buildings will, at all times, require the input of students’ Okta Verify code to grant entry. The proposal initially…
I have spent the past several weeks immersed in the culture of an exotic tribe, isolated from the rest of civilization in a region known as Anaidni. After observing their customs extensively, I have ultimately concluded that I simply could never make sense of them. Void of rhyme or reason, their outrageous…
As Notre Dame students fall for “false spring” year after year, there is one second-semester phenomenon they can always rely on: ring by spring. The stereotype of meeting the love of your life at Notre Dame and getting engaged by senior spring is alive and well, and the pressure is on with only one…
The Irish have finally made a phone call that Matt Barrie has been begging to make on our behalf for months. Barrie’s comments, followed by many other professional and public pointed observations about staying independent and whining when they don’t make the playoffs, have gotten to Notre Dame, provoking…

Notre Dame football is just one year removed from a magical trip to the national championship game, a 34-23 loss to Ohio State. Before that, the Irish were one win away from their first NCAA title since 1988 in 2012. The Irish were a perfect 12-0 after the regular season and jumped from the No. 3…
Chaotic. Turbulent. Heartbreaking. All fitting descriptors for Notre Dame’s 2025 season. The campaign began with two close losses to College Football Playoff teams Miami and Texas A&M. From there, the Irish fired away ten consecutive wins. The issue? The Irish’s surge never earned its ultimate…
Notre Dame game days are rich with tradition. Trumpets in the dome. Pre-game Mass and player walk. The concert on the steps. Long-running family tailgates. The victory march, the leprechaun, gold helmets running out onto the field and those four famous words: “Here come the Irish.”

What’s the state of college football as the 2025-26 season comes to an end? Better than ever? Tetering towards disaster? It probably depends on who you ask. One thing is for certain: much has changed.
College football has always been big business, and don’t let anyone tell you differently.…
There is very little that can be relied on in college football right now. The mighty SEC has fallen. Indiana is the best team in the country and Bill Belichick is doing whatever that is. But one thing remains reliable: the money. Everybody is making money, and the Irish are no different.
