The Roundup is the Jesuit Dallas Student Voice and Newspaper since 1942. Learn about us.

While the whole school is still riding the post-Rockwall hype, we here at the Roundup think it is an opportune time to make some predictions for the rest of the Ranger's football season, not at all skewed by the 60-59 win that occurred last Friday, September 1, 2023. Now, as the Rangers have lost their season opener, but conquered...
As the American 2024 Presidential Election draws near, some politicians have made comments advocating for a scaling-back of US military aid to Ukraine. But how has this aid been put to use in the past? What ramifications does an end-to-aid entail? Is the rest of NATO pulling its weight? What does America gain from giving aid? And is the...
The NFL is full of surprises. This is obvious. Just look at the 2022-23 NFL season. Can you see some surprises? I can. For example, the Seattle Seahawks made the playoffs? The Defending Super Bowl Champion Rams went 5-12 and ended the year with Baker Mayfield as their starting quarterback? Imagine telling someone before the season that this would...

The Women's World Cup recently concluded in Australia where Spain reigned victorious and took home the trophy, beating close favorites England. To achieve this, they overcame strong sides like Sweden and the Netherlands while missing Alexia Putellas, a Women's Ballon d'Or frontrunner, due to injury. This, among player protests against poor management from the coach and lack of funding...
During my stay in Denver to see family and friends and look at some schools for a weekend, I had the opportunity to visit one of the best fast/casual places to eat across the country, however, with a twist. Sure, you can go to Chipotle on Preston and Forest near Jesuit next to La Madeline, but it's only right...
