Summer Musings and Updates

We hope you are doing well. As Observer editors and writers leave Boston for the summer, the website is updated less frequently. However, we would just like to give you a few news bulletins:

-We are planning to publish twelve issues next year, a feat that has not been met since the 1990s. We published just eight issues as recently as two years ago. This increase will allow the Boston College community to find us to be an increasingly-reliable source of news now that we can publish more often.

-Jesse Naiman had his first article published on National Review Online. Jesse is the Collegiate Network intern at National Review this summer. This piece is the first of hopefully several that he will have published (a blog post on the same topic is listed here).

-Michael Reer, who will be attending BC Law School in the fall, has written an article explaining his critical views of relativism’s role in Catholicism. Michael has worked hard to fight against relativism in Catholicism at BC, and he hopes this article further clarifies his objections  to the former doctrine.

-Former Massachusetts state senator Dianne Wilkerson (D), famous for stuffing a cash bribe in her bra on camera, pleaded guilty to eight counts of attempted extortion. We featured Wilkerson’s misdeeds in a September article when we revealed that lobbying firm The Brennan Group donated $400 to the then-senator.

By the way, it is never to early to donate to The Observer. Our expansion plans would be impossible without support from loyal readers like you, no matter the size of your donation.  Just click “Donate” to the top-right of your screen!
