Adkins: The State of Egypt’s Economy
In Egyptian Arabic, the word for bread is pronounced “aeesh.” This word is the same as the standard Arabic word for life. Bread is found on every table for every meal in Egyptian households. It is sustenance, the reason for life in Egypt. Egyptians consume more than twice the amount of bread per person than to the global average. Bread prices, therefore, are an insightful indicator of the living standards of Egyptians at a given moment.

Spotlight on Fashion et cetera: A club dedicated to highlighting art through fashion
No one is exempt from the realm of fashion. A simple choice of clothing says an incredible amount about a person’s style, tastes, culture and emotional state. In truth, fashion is a silent storyteller, an art form woven into our daily lives — one that is ultimately inescapable. Though, in Hanover, where the winters are dreary and students are overrun by their readings, it’s often difficult not to dress for comfort over style. Or dressing in regards to the fashion around us.

Live from Hanover: Spotlight on WebDCR
When students want to listen to music or tune in to their favorite podcasts, they might first turn to streaming services like Apple Music or Spotify. But another option for Dartmouth students lies on the third floor of Robinson Hall — the Web Dartmouth College Radio station, a hidden gem from which students host radio talk shows and stream their curated playlists. According to the organization’s website, WebDCR is Dartmouth’s freeform, online and student-run radio station. The organization, which occupies a unique niche in Dartmouth’s media landscape, has undergone numerous changes throughout its history — most notably, the College sold its FM station to WFRD, a commercial radio station in Hanover, in 2021. Since then, WebDCR transitioned to exclusively online broadcasting.
Behind the Scenes: One Custodian’s Life at Dartmouth
Mid Fayerweather Hall on a Saturday morning isn’t always a pretty sight. Walking into the common room, you might find it completely trashed — chunks missing from the wall, garbage scattered across the floor, chairs upended — the unfortunate result of a rowdy Friday night. We often take our living spaces for granted without appreciating the hard work of those who keep them neat and tidy. This week, I decided to spotlight one of the staff members who keeps our living spaces clean while we run from classes to clubs to Greek houses — and everywhere in between.
