Inside
- Life exists after football (Matt Orenchuk Asst. Web Administrator)
I am a pretty passionate guy when it comes to football. I would say that from August to January not a minute goes by that I am not babbling about the game. When my teams are doing well, I am happy. When my teams are doing poorly, I am miserable. I started playing football when I was 9-years old, and I played for eight of the next nine autumns. All of this culminated with my senior year at Jacksonville High School in the fall of 1997. I worked really hard in the off-season, lifting weights and even running. I really wanted a successful senior season.
Viewpoint
- Legalize all drugs (John Litle Frankly Obnoxious)
I am sick and tired of paying for everyone else's illegal drug habit. It enrages me that I have to involuntarily contribute thousands of dollars for drug abusers in this country. That's why I advocate legalizing all forms of drugs, for everyone.
- Davie lacks Irish spirit (Kevin Keane class of '88)
I'm writing two years after being vilified for suggesting that the students boo Bob Davie at the pep rally and that Mike Wadsworth was not what we needed as athletic director. I now seem to be a prophet, and, although I certainly hope that a decision has already been reached, I would like to fire one final salvo to satisfy my thirst for "blood."

- Garden brings a Mauritania frame of mind (Maite Uranga Life in Africa)
The cold season is here. Although this is all relative as the temperature reaches 95 degrees during the day. Nevertheless, now is also the planting season. In the United States I never liked gardening. It took so long to see any result and with my memory I would always forget to water the plants and seeds or even forget if I had actually planted anything. I preferred to lie by a pool or go on a summer road trip.
- How to deal with the alcohol conflict Draw together (Caroline Reams sophmore)
Born and bred a Notre Dame legacy, I've heard plenty of crazy alcohol-induced stories and the good old days at Notre Dame. I'm sure you can relate. But regardless, whether the administration would like to face it or not, drinking is a tradition at this University.
- How to deal with the alcohol conflict Let's start with the basics (Matthew Smith senior)
In recent years there has been a regressive trend emerging at our beloved University. We have all noticed it in subtle ways. All the needless demonstrations of authority at security gates, football games, and while tailgating add up to a simple fact: Notre Dame shows its students a lack of trust and respect.

Scene
- Pumpkins memoralized in Greatest Hits (By TOM O'CONNELL Scene Music Critic)
Rotten Apples, The Smashing Pumpkins Greatest Hits, is a nostalgic gift to the adoring fans of one the greatest bands of the '90s. This album brings the listener back to the days when rock had a personal and poetic touch that is absent from today's emotionally barren wannabe rockers who sing about how much money they have or how many chicks they've scored with. Over their 10-year run, singer/songwriter/guitarist Billy Corgan, guitarist James Iha, bassist D'Arcy and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin experienced almost every possible high and low.
- Jagger fails to roll without the Stones in Goddess (By SEAN McLAUGHLIN Scene Music Critic)
Mick Jagger's fourth solo album, "Goddess in the Doorway," was recently bestowed with Rolling Stone's five-star rating. But once again, the new Rolling Stone, which feels the need to tirelessly place disposable pop icons on their covers, has wandered well off the reservation.
