Hello, and welcome to the final Compact Mirror of 11X! This week, we decided to give all of you '13s (and random interlopers) a reality check from sophomore Summer and broach a topic that affects us all, all year long: facetime. The question of facetime is a pretty contested one here at Dartmouth people always seem to be trying to get it, trying to avoid it or trying to figure out what it means. On some days, you might be awkwardly sitting on first floor Berry with an Arnold Palmer from KAF with no homework until someone acknowledges you (hi everyone!). Other times, you might be ducking behind trees on Mass Row because you've literally never looked grimmer and showering just seems to take too long (even though it's a kiln outside and you can't stop sweating what are you doing?). Admit it you're constantly thinking about getting or avoiding facetime. It's undeniable that facetime unfortunately controls some of our choices here at Dartmouth. But just how seriously do we take facetime? Do Dartmouth students knowingly join groups that attract more campus attention with the goal of being seen? What does it say about us as a community? Where do YOU go when you want people to see you wearing your sorority tank/flexing in a frat pinnie/playing the oboe (or maybe that's just me)? We here at The Compact Mirror hope to answer all of these questions you probably don't have, and more. Except not really the term is ending and we just don't have the time. Bye!
