Dartmouth staffers celebrate transition in style at Changeover

It’s been a news­wor­thy year for The Dart­mouth’s ’12 di­rec­torate, who pub­lished their final paper today - ’13 staffers are tak­ing over pro­duc­tion be­gin­ning on Jan­u­ary 1st, a tran­si­tion that was cause for cel­e­bra­tion. Fri­day No­vem­ber 18th saw The Dart­mouth staff don­ning their glad-rags for The Dart­mouth’s An­nual Changeover Cel­e­bra­tion at Casque & Gaunt­let.

 

Out­go­ing '12 di­rec­torateThe mem­bers of the ed­i­to­r­ial board were the first to ar­rive at the event, bear­ing bot­tles of cham­pagne and closely-guarded award en­velopes. They were closely fol­lowed by ju­nior staff mem­bers dressed up to the nines in blaz­ers, ties, dresses and heels.

 

Ju­nior staffers ar­rive at C&GThe first per­son to catch my eye was our very own out­go­ing Dart­beat ed­i­tor Ta­tiana Cooke ’12, who wowed the crowds in a mod­ern clas­sic – the black ban­dage dress.

Out­go­ing ex­ec­u­tive ed­i­tors Jamila Ma ’12 and Katie Gon­za­lez ’12 daz­zled on-look­ers in a sim­ple and el­e­gant nude beaded chif­fon dress and a petrol blue and metal­lic shift re­spec­tively.

News writer Diana Ming ’14 and lay­out staff-mem­ber Laura Dorn ’15 kept their looks light and fresh in beau­ti­ful sum­mer dresses.
