Reflection: Savoring the Foco Soup Station
As a first-year student on the Ivy Unlimited meal plan — which offers unlimited swipes into the Class of 1953 Commons, known colloquially as Foco — I eat many-a-bite at the College’s main dining hall. In all my meals there, I’ve realized that I gravitate toward one food station much more often than the others — the soup station.
DSG discusses Alumni Gymnasium repairs and ‘institutional neutrality’ on political and social issues
On April 21, the Dartmouth Student Government Senate met for its fourth weekly meeting of the spring term. Led by student body president Jessica Chiriboga ’24, the Senate discussed potential solutions to the closure of weight-lifting machinery in Alumni Gymnasium due to discovery of asbestos on the floor below. It also considered a proposal for the College to adopt “institutional neutrality” — which would limit the College administration’s ability to take positions on social and political issues.
Jackson: Sticker Shocked
As yet another admissions cycle wraps up, students across the country and world are making big decisions about their futures. Some will enter immediately into the workforce, while others will be drawn to professional training through trade schools or military service. For the majority of Americans, however, high school graduation signals the start of additional schooling at a college or university. It is concerning that a contingent of those students will have their plans derailed not by grades or test scores, but by ballooning tuition costs.

Review: Fred Again Brings Movement to the Forefront
I first listened to Fred Again during my study abroad in London last fall — late to the game.

de Wolff: Rethinking Access to This Year’s Commencement Ceremony
I applaud College President Sian Leah Beilock for securing tennis legend Roger Federer as the commencement speaker for the Class of 2024’s graduation on June 9. The announcement has been rightly met with a great deal of excitement not only from the student body and the greater Dartmouth community, but also from many unconnected to Dartmouth — in the Upper Valley and beyond. Federer’s visit to Hanover is sure to draw a great crowd.
New Hampshire legislature advances bills banning trans athletes from team sports
On April 10, the New Hampshire Senate passed Senate Bill 375, which would ban transgender girls from playing on school or state sanctioned female sports teams. The vote came four weeks after the New Hampshire House of Representatives voted 189 - 182 to pass House Bill 1205, the “Fairness in Women’s Sports Act,” which mandates that K-12 public schools classify athletic teams based on biological sex at birth — thus prohibiting transgender students from playing on teams that align with their gender identities.
