With the Student Assembly president and vice president together on campus for the first time since their election last spring, organization members will spend fall term solidifying their agenda and developing online projects, long-term student life initiatives and partnerships with administrative offices, Student Assembly vice president Michael Zhu '14 said. The organization will also focus on improving its internal participation, implementing an attendance policy and distributing weekly assignments to members in each of its six committees, Zhu said. "We hope that by keeping members accountable we will be able to be more productive and accomplish more," Zhu said. In the spring, the organization attracted attention for low student turnout in its presidential election and an open planning meeting, which was attended by three students. While the summer's Assembly consisted of the executive board and committee chairs, summer programming director Yesuto Shaw '15 said the Assembly hopes to grow in size to 30 or 40 student members once all classes return to campus and the organization begins recruiting freshmen. The Assembly will focus on publicizing a newly developed, comprehensive course review system this term, Shaw said.

Nushy Golriz / The Dartmouth Staff Vladimir Feltsman's hands, reflected in the mirrored surface of a grand piano, seemed barely capable of keeping up with his real ones during his exuberant performance Friday night. The recital by Feltsman, a Moscow-born pianist, was the last in a handful of major events planned for the slow summer season at the Hopkins Center. With works by Haydn, Schubert, Liszt and Scriabin, Feltsman's program was enjoyable for the inexperienced listener as well as the classical music buff. In a post-performance question and answer session, Feltsman explained the logic of his program, describing how the composers represent a progression of musical influence spanning almost two centuries. "He's not one of those Russian players who just plays Russian music," said Richard Fu '13, the Hopkins Center's classical music student relations advisor. The performance in Spaulding Auditorium was peppered with gray heads and a smattering of visiting students and sophomores.
