RED CUP.  Presented by Notre Dame Film, Television, and Theatre Directed by by Matt Hakwins Returning to the stage for a second year, "RED CUP" is an one-act documentary theatre performance inspired by written essays from Notre Dame students on the drinking culture in college, a culture often associated with "rest" or "leisure."The play is inspired by the final papers written for the course "Drunk on Film: The Psychology of Storytelling with Alcohol and Its Effects on Alcohol Consumption at Notre Dame."

The Center for Italian Studies is pleased to inaugurate the sixth edition of the series Tre Corone: testi e contesti dell'Italia medievale (2025–2026) with an event dedicated to the recently published volume Voci sul Purgatorio di Dante. Una nuova lettura della seconda cantica (Carocci, 2024), edited by Zygmunt G. Barański and Maria Antonietta Terzoli.

In addition to the canto readings, the volume includes essays on the structure and models of the Purgatorio ; its language and style between memory and modernity; the theme of love; the pastoral tradition; and issues of biography and textual transmission.
