On July 4, President Donald Trump signed the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a budget reconciliation bill that includes new guidelines for higher education financing opportunities, among other policies. The bill eliminates several student loan repayment options, restricts Pell grant eligibility and enacts loan caps — all of which may reshape access to higher education.

Dartmouth needs a place reserved for an international member on the Board of Trustees. By international, I don’t mean a child of immigrants or a naturalized U.S. citizen. For the purposes of this article, I don’t mean anyone from the Anglo-Western world either. I am talking about people who have been through the daunting process of leaving their home country and crossing linguistic and cultural boundaries to seek an education in the States, but who choose to ultimately return to their countries of origin or settle away from the United States. This, I believe, is where a school like Dartmouth’s calling truly lies — not in contributing to global brain drain or fueling the American corporate machine, but instead creating a class of exceptional individuals who embody “a sense of responsibility for each other and for the broader world,” as outlined in the College’s mission statement. I believe that having an international Trustee is not only symbolically important, but also a strategic imperative to pursue these aims.

Artificial intelligence is an issue that lingers quietly at the back of our minds, an unspoken discomfort that many of us carry. As college students, we have experienced the advent of artificial intelligence models and witnessed the breathtaking pace at which they have advanced. Some of us may have benefited from these large language models’ impressive talent for completing assignments. But beneath the convenience lies the growing anxiety that artificial intelligence will reshape societies and markets in ways that we do not yet understand. Dartmouth must more proactively integrate AI into the classroom.

In June, the Trump administration barred foreign students from attending the institution. However, on June 20, the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts indefinitely blocked the Trump administration’s order. While the decision does secure the status of Harvard’s international students for the time being, the fact that this decision does not come from the Supreme Court leaves them hanging by a thread. In the unfortunate yet plausible event that the Supreme Court rules in favor of the Trump administration, other Ivy League institutions should come forward and admit these students. Dartmouth should lead the charge.

At a school full of traditions like Dartmouth, it’s no surprise that sophomore summer — a quintessential Dartmouth experience — contains many of its own. For one, the opportunity to join a summer performance group is a highly anticipated part of many students’ Dartmouth experience. Dance, a capella and comedy groups all host open auditions for students on campus and welcome dozens of new members for the term. For existing members of full-year groups, the chance to perform in a new ensemble allows them to explore new artistic styles and expand their creative boundaries.

I would never have thought that I could feel the slightest bit of embarrassment for receiving financial aid. In fact, I don’t think anyone should feel that way when working towards a four-year degree at an Ivy League institution.

I’ve been hooking up with someone repeatedly this term who I’ve hooked up with in the past. I enjoy hanging out casually, but I’m worried the other person is more invested than I am. I don’t see it going anywhere in the long run. At what point should I stop seeing my former scheme?

A little goal of mine this summer is to explore every building on campus I’ve never been in before. Not just poke my head in, but actually be there, setting up camp with my laptop, drinking bad coffee in a forgotten lounge, watching the light move through unfamiliar windows. Dartmouth is tiny but still vast; I want to see how the campus feels when I let it surprise me.

The Dartmouth men’s heavyweight rowing team recently returned from the iconic Henley Royal Regatta in England, marking the culmination of an incredible season filled with hard-fought victories and silverware.
