By: Ella Fisher, Guest Writer Amid what seems to be a whitewashed ocean of Vans, Converse, and Nike Elite socks on the Notre Dame campus, I awkwardly clunk around in a pair of Doc Marten 1461’s; usually matched with a pair of aggressively frilly socks. Sure I like breaking the mold of shoe conformity a little, but from my perspective, few choose to break this mold as well. If you were to look down at any point during the school day, you are guaranteed to see a few unique pairs of pumped-up kicks, but what’s the reality behind Notre Dame’s majority shoe choice? This casual shoe enthusiast went to find out. Upon investigation, I learned that I am not the only person to share in the opinion that Vans and Converse are the shoe of choice on campus, “There’s a transition,” says Junior Emiko Miller because, “the freshman girls always start off wearing white or grey vans and end up in white converse and I feel the majority of our class now likes converse.” Junior Sam Lubell also had a similar view on the subject, “The majority of shoes people wear on campus are definitely Vans, Converse, and Nike’s. A lot of the guys on campus wear Nike Janoski’s- I’ve seen more of those lately, especially this year,” he comments. Senior Mikayla Rae Garvin, who wears

EDITION both white Converse and Vans, who said she pre- ferred these shoes points out, “I’ve worn Vans and Converse all of my life, that’s why I wear them. They also look best with the uniform when they’re new.” Out of one hundred kids polled on campus from every grade, 66% of students said that they preferred either Vans or Converse with the ND uniform, split almost evenly with Converse with a small lead over Vans by 6%. Another 23% of students said that they preferred athletic-type or athletic-brand shoes such as Nike’s, Jordans, Pumas, and New Balance. Only 11% of students polled preferring other brands and types of shoes, such as Lacoste, various types of slip on’s like penny loafers and boat shoes, and, of course, Doc Martens. It turns out that the Knights do enjoy their Vans and Converse, and it’s true that with the uniform, this shoe choice does look good. How- ever, I shall happily clunk on in my boxy Docs, and so shall all of the unique shoes at ND. So look out for these trendsetters, and any new shoe trends in the upcoming year.

A New Type of Gospel By: Lauren Crittenden
Hozier grew up in Ireland with a blues-singing father. The singer-songwriter then joined bands and gospel choirs to hone his talents. Now he has produced two EP’s, “From Eden” and “Take Me To Church”, the latter being a chart topping single. The only place this unique singer-songwriter can go is up. His intelligence and soul permeates through his lyrics. His gospel and R&B influences flow through his smooth, rich vocals. His voice is raw, vulnerable, and natural which draws in all types of listeners. With all these artists “sweetening” their voices with technology it’s about time we get the real thing.

He was born on St. Patrick’s Day in Ireland. His single “Take Me To Church” is number five on iTunes. He performed as a solo act on Saturday Night Live. So far 2014 has been a breakout year for Hozier and his album only adds to that. I can honestly say this is the first time I’ve listened to a full album since NSYNC*S “No Strings Attached”. His songs are meaningful and emotional, which draws listeners in. His sound is completely different with a soulful, gospel tone. The continuous acoustic sound in his album makes it feel like he is performing right inside your eardrums.

By Victoria Martinez On Sunday, October 26th 2014 Van Nuys- Sherman Oaks Park was filled with people from all over the greater Los Angeles area as well as the nation. Many different backgrounds united together with one goal: to fight the epidemic known as distracted driving. The 4th Annual In Honor of Conor 5k Run/Walk brought many supporters to the park bright and early to enjoy festivities. The purpose of this 5k, put on by the Conor Lynch Foundation, is to “raise awareness and promote safety for runners, cyclists, and young drivers” explained Jerri Dye Lynch, mother of runner and distracted driving victim, Conor Lynch. The event featured many booths that ranged from California Highway Patrol officers giving out pamphlets to shoe companies selling running shoes, all stressing the importance of driving and pedestrian safety. Hosted by KTLA anchor Frank Buckley, the run/walk went underway at approximately 8:30 a.m. after a few words by Notre Dame President Brett Lowart, founder of the Conor Lynch Foundation Jerri Dye Lynch, a prayer by ND Student Body Vice President Casey Anderson, and the national anthem sung by Ben Vereen.
In Honor of Conor
“I feel really good, this is my second time doing this and I’m really happy to be here,” said Notre Dame High School senior and varsity girls basketball player, Andrea Withers. A majority of participants were those of the Notre Dame community, including many sports teams, teachers, and students. The ND Cross Country team, which Conor was a member of, is an active supporter of the event and has even gotten other teams such as St. Francis to support their throughout the years. Participants received an orange t-shirt and a goodie bag filled with road safety information. After running or walking people were able to enjoy live music by three bands, one being Notre Dame’s very own, Cosmic Latte. Food was provided by many sponsors like Poquito Más. People took the pledge to not drive distracted, and in that crowd of people were a few famous faces like David Koechner from Anchorman. Clara Mirales, who read about the 5k in the Daily News just three days before said, “[the event] is terrific! Its fun to be in a group of people that supports the same cause.” October 26th was a day filled with sorrow in remembrance of those we’ve lost due to distracted driving, but also filled joy for the future of road safety.

EVOLUTI

Imagine yourself sitting in your room getting ready for the big school dance. The year is 1955 and you’re about to be picked up by your dream date. Your hair is cracking from the overuse of hairspray, but that doesn’t bother you because your hair looks cool. You straighten your long skirt or fix your tie and drive to school in Tommy’s brand new Hot Rod with Bobby or Sally holding your hand. When you enter the gym, you hear a five-man band blasting the rebellious sound of rock ‘n’ roll. You love the sound. You love the freedom of Elvis’s words and the feeling of breaking away from your parents’ conservative ways. You feel yourself start to move to the music and you grab your date’s hand and you swing dance the night away. You don’t feel self-conscious because there is no room to be self-conscious in rock ‘n’ roll. Besides, everyone around you is doing the same boogie-woogie or Bop as you are. Everyone is having fun because they can finally let loose and just dance. Now imagine yourself sitting in your room getting ready for the Homecoming dance. The year is 2014 and you’re about to head over to your friend’s house to take photos of you and your date, if they happen to show up. You pull down your too-tight dress or you loosen your dad’s old tie. When you’re through with taking pictures, you drive over to the school gym, but no one is actually in the gym. They are all talking outside, timid to be the first to enter the dancing floor. You greet various people until you notice how everyone is starting to migrate into the gym. The girls are taking their heels off while the guys are removing their jackets. Everyone jumps in place as they mouth the words to generic pop songs that play on the radio every two seconds. The girls try to impress the guys by “grinding” or “twerking” and the guys try to impress the girls by pretending they’re too cool to be there. You may be scared to dance because you have tricked yourself into thinking you don’t know how to. Or you might have the “I don’t care” attitude and are letting yourself surrender to the music. The attitude towards school dances has dramatically changed within the past 59 years. School dances are no longer the sacred events that they used to be. Most current high schoolers think that dances are lame and would easily rather go to a party than a dance. But what’s the cause of this drastic change in how we treat dances? Maybe it has to do with the pressure both boys and girls feel to look or act “sexy” while dancing. Dancing has become a solo act rather than a duo, which leaves room to feel judged. For the most part, teenagers of the 1950s loved going to dances because it allowed them to act like James Deans and Marilyn Monroes for a night. The romance of high school dances has been taken away by trying to dance like Miley Cyrus. I think the main difference between the 1950s and now is that dances back then were about the intimacy of shared dancing between couples. We may never know the cause of the major shift in attitude toward school dances but it’s highly plausible that it has to do with the extreme stress that high school students have to feel accepted and to be cool. If that pressure was removed, maybe we could learn to let loose and find a new dance as exhilarating and carefree as swing.

The spread Nutella:
NOVEMBER 2014
Over 71% of people who were surveyed rate Nutella as a 4 or above on a 1 to 5 scale
75 percent of surveyed ND students love nutella, with the freshmens leading the way with 86% of the class enjoying the choclate spread
By Andrew Gavinet Hoard everything you have, the apocalypse is coming. Never leave your house because soon judgment day will come……... In the form of a Nutella shortage. Nutella is important. It makes over 1 billion dollars annually in Europe alone, it is the single biggest driving force behind the Turkish hazelnut industry, and perhaps most importantly it is enjoyed by millions of people worldwide and 73% of all Notre Dame students. Which makes recent news on Nutella all the more alarming. This past March an untimely frost in central turkey destroyed nearly 70% of all Turkish hazelnuts. To put that in perspective, over 1 billion hazelnuts were destroyed which doesn’t bode well for Nutella since it takes about 50 of them to make only one jar of the product. So far the price of Nutella has remained the same however there is a growing fear that this loss of product will soon cause a massive increase in price leaving you to pay more for the chocolate goodness that is Nutella. When asked about the economic impact of the shortage, senior economics teacher Mrs. Cantwell said that the reason for the spike in prices is “ Simple supply and demand. When supply goes down such (as in Nutella) the price goes up to accommodate for scarcity of the product. Putting price over quantity can give you an equation graph to show this.”
“We are tracking this issue closely and there’s no foreseeable impact on the availability of Nutella. As always, we will maintain the high quality of the Nutella product that consumers know and love.”- Ferrero USA official statement

A Global Future
By Alex Stephenson
“Notre Dame was quite comfortable,” reminisces Notre Dame alum Dylan Aponte, as he reflects back on his time at ND. Aponte, class of 2005, has come far from his days as an ND high school student. Aponte majored in International Relations at George Washington University, and has since made the world his home. Studying abroad his junior year, Aponte went to China, “where I learned Chinese, traveled around the country and learned more about their culture and history, and that proved fundamental in the career decisions and pathways that I’ve followed since,” he explains. Aponte has indeed followed an exciting path, working for the government as well as
a global company. “When I graduated school I went to go work for the US Senate,” he says. From there, Aponte had an opportunity to go work for the US Ambassador of China. Bigger and better things awaited him when he got back to the US, however. “I decided that government was a little bit too bureaucratic and slow, and I wanted something that was faster-paced and in the business world,” Aponte explains. “I had this idea about going to work for a multinational global company and there was an opportunity at the time for me to go work at Thomson Reuters.” Aponte currently works in corporate strategy of Thomson Reuters, parent company of Reuters News. Aponte explains his job as a management consultant. “We work on various projects for the executive leadership team and gross opportunities for the company.” He is still evaluating the parts he likes and the parts he doesn’t like, with long hours in a cubicle weighing in on the latter end. With all the work he has been doing around the world, Aponte expressed his gratitude for Notre Dame, which helped him prepare for success in “the real world”. “Notre Dame taught me how to tell stories,
12
which is a critically important skill I’ve encountered in the real world,” recalls Aponte. “Crafting a story and building a narrative is crucial to success. This is about communicating with your employees, co-workers, bosses and customers. I started to learn this skill at Notre Dame with teachers like Mr. Woolery in AP US History, Mrs. Nelson in AP Language, and Ms. Harkins in TV Production. I continue to work on developing this skill in the real world but it all started at Notre Dame,” Aponte states. For students in high school, Aponte suggests stepping out side your comfort zone. “I really had to push myself to go away to school,” he explains, “and one of the best parts about my undergraduate experience was going away to school and having that experience and those opportunities that came along with it.” Aponte stresses that “the world is a big place and increasingly globalized. Spend time doing things you wouldn’t normally do. Explore new areas. Build quantitative skills in math and science. Learn how to code, even if it’s just as a side hobby. And most importantly take risks and don’t be afraid to fail.”

Why do we Eat Turkey on Thanksgiving?
By Janet Yeo Thanksgiving is one of the most anticipated holidays of the year. Some people say it is for football, others like the Black Friday afterwards, and some just like an extra day of no school. But the majority would say that the reason they get all excited for this day is for the food. It does not matter which food you like, but the centerpiece always is the most important part, the turkey. All families across America eat turkey, but do they actually know the origin of this tradition? Before we try to understand why we eat turkey during this day, it is helpful to know the history behind Thanksgiving Day. The whole feast sated all the way back to 1621. A group of religious separatists departed Plymouth, England to escape religious persecution. They just wanted a place where they can practice their faith freely without fear. Another reason was that they wanted to explore the awaited New World. Thus, the group, later to be known as the Pilgrims, boarded a small ship called the Mayflower. The Pilgrims intended to land near the Hudson River, but ended up near Cape Cod. The Mayflower eventually settled in Massachusetts. Only half survived the brutal winter, so they decided to look for help during the spring. This allowed the Pilgrims to befriend local Native Americans who aided their corn and other crops in the spring. To thank the Indians for their help to survive the season, the Pilgrims gave them a celebratory feast. This is known as the first Thanksgiving. However, Thanksgiving did not become an official holiday until President Abraham Lincoln declared it as one in 1863. There was no mention of a turkey on the menu at the first Thanksgiving. Yet is an essential part of the meal. According to the National Turkey Foundation, nearly 90 percent of American families eat turkey, whether it be roasted, baked, or fried. That is about 46 million turkeys consumed on Thanksgiving. Thus there is no definite reason why we eat turkey on Thanksgiving. Alexander Hamilton stated that a “no American citizen can celebrate thanksgiving without turkey.� Another reason is that it is an American bird. Hunting wild turkey was considered as a sport. Thus it was hunted down quite frequently before it was declared as a holiday in 1863. There are also many practical reasons why Turkey is the center piece. It is much bigger than chicken so to feed a large group of hungry eaters, turkey will satisfy everyone. Turkey was appropriate for a big celebration like this one because it is not very common. Pork, chicken, and other meats are eaten all the time, so to eat them on a special day will make it less important and just like everyday other day. Thanksgiving is day where family and friends gather together to give thanks. It is filled with joy, laughter, and delicious food. We might not know why we eat turkey, but we can all say that somehow brings everybody together.
