College Improvement Goals Call for Drastic Measures

To the Editor:

With all the whining about the "surprise" nature of the Board of Trustees' vote to change Greek life at Dartmouth, it may be wise for current students to consider that in some situations, a dramatic approach is required. Case in point: coeducation. Current students would likely agree that coeducation at Dartmouth is a good idea, yet I hardly think that if male students of the 1960's were consulted about going coed, they would have favored the idea. Then, and now, the Board of Trustees has the best interests of the College in mind and while this decision may result in some awkward years of transition, an improved Dartmouth will surely result.
