Notre Dame signs NBC media deal, preserving independence.
Eddy Street is a staple of the Notre Dame experience today, with spots like Brothers and Dave’s Hot Chicken being popular student hangouts. However, it is important to note that just 20 years ago, the Eddy Street we know was nonexistent.
Today, students live in the Foundry apartments, study at Starbucks or shop for a new outfit at Urban Outfitters, but in 2004, the blueprint for Eddy Street was just that — a document wrapped in an architect’s tube.…

Dana Horgen is an associate teaching professor of chemistry who started in July 2023. She has taught general and organic chemistry labs in her first two semesters for both chemistry and biochemistry majors and non-majors. Intrigued by Hollywood’s portrayal of chemistry, Horgen created a new lecture course for non-science majors called “Foundations of Chemistry” to offer insight into the media’s representation of chemistry and chemical processes in films.…
When Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer started to speak, the first words out of her mouth were a quiet “thank you” and, after the briefest of pauses, “bozho ndénwemagnek:” hello, all my relatives. These words are not only a greeting, but an invitation — a call to recognize the interconnectedness of this world and the innumerable gifts it has given us and to reply with gratitude, with gifts of our own in return.…

Notre Dame is a unique place. It’s situated in the heart of the Midwest, and its single-sex dorms, parietals and unyielding Catholic identity may seem archaic to an outsider.
Yet the vast majority of alumni speak highly of their alma mater, continue to donate to the university and attend football games years after graduating. Many employers gush at the prospect of hiring Notre Dame students. So, what is it about Notre Dame that makes it so special?…
Some incoming freshmen have had the Fight Song and the Alma Mater ingrained in their minds since birth. But for many students the first time they hear these songs will be at the first pep rally or the opening school-wide Mass. Here, Scholastic gives you an introduction to the lyrics that, by the time you graduate in 2027, you’ll know as well as your own name.…
At the far end of South Quad, lining the side of O’Shaughnessy Hall, sits a small and unique art museum. Largely visited by students for class discussion or as a quiet study spot during finals, the Snite Museum of Art is thought to be a charming aspect of Notre Dame’s campus. However, in Nov. 2023, the Snite is set to close, and a larger, newer building is set to open: The Raclin Murphy Museum of Art.…
Notre Dame is probably one of the few institutions left that requires their first-year students to live with a roommate, for a full year, who is randomly assigned to them. I remember the summer before freshman year when my home friends were scouring their future university’s various “Class of 2025” Instagram pages for a potential roommate. Surely, it is a daunting task to try and select a roommate from only three to five photos and a generic caption. If I had a nickel every time I read the statement “I love to go out, but I am also down for a chill night in,” I might be able to make a dent in my tuition. But as part of Notre Dame’s ambition to create a real community, without exclusivity or isolation of a particular student, random roommates are assigned to each incoming first-year, as well as a random room assignment. Unfortunately, that means you are less likely to coordinate your room to look like a perfect Pinterest photo with matching bedding and posters.…

November is Native American Heritage Month. As Thanksgiving break comes to an end, it is important to take time to not just reflect on the pilgrims who celebrated their harvest almost 400 years ago, but also to commemorate the past and present Native Americans and their land which we stand on.

Chain-linked fences are scattered across campus — in front of Hesburgh library, on the bank of St. Mary’s lake, to the right of Johnson Family Hall — hiding construction projects from onlookers. It seems that as soon as one fence comes down, another goes up. Students and visitors peer through gaps in the tarps, trying to decipher the faded project descriptions hanging on the fences in an attempt to guess at what is being built next.…
