Re: Beilock says “reflection does not mean capitulation”
A group of academics and agriculture professionals came together to talk about migrant labor and food production in a panel last week.
As a freshman during spring term 1972, I attended my first protest against the Vietnam War in front of the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory near campus. Although a few other protesters had committed to performing acts of civil disobedience during the protest — namely, by blocking the driveway entrance to CRREL — I was only there to lend vocal and moral support. After the Hanover police had removed and arrested the half-dozen or so protesters who had physically blocked the entrance and refused to move, the protest looked like it would be very short-lived unless others threw themselves into the breach. So I was moved to do so and quickly found myself in the paddy wagon headed to Hanover’s jail.

Over a third of the faculty have signed an open letter urging College President Sian Leah Beilock to “defend the values” of higher education.
This weekend, while the Dartmouth campus largely let loose in sandy, flower-strewn and muddy backyards, I took a flight back to Florida. My little brother decided to graduate from college in a hasty three years, while I took a gap year. Despite our two-year age difference, he graduated a month and two weeks before me.
Dear Freak of the Week,
At dusk on Saturday, I lay on my quilted duvet, listening to the droning of my fan and infrequent conversations on the road below my window. Last week, I endured the kind of stress that numbs you, that makes it hard to believe the stressors are trivial. But I made it to the weekend, to a moment of stillness in the constant turmoil of the Dartmouth bubble.
On Green Key last year, after another day of dangerous, unplanned, regretful decisions, I told Won sternly: “If your world ends, so does mine.”

In a recent study, geography professor Justin Mankin and Stanford postdoctoral fellow Christopher Callahan found that the emissions of 111 fossil fuel companies have cost the global economy an estimated $28 trillion. The study, which was published on April 23 in the journal “Nature,” uses emissions data from 1991 to 2020 to model the Earth’s climate with and without the pollution of major companies. The Dartmouth sat down with Callahan and Mankin to discuss the findings of their research, the study’s framework and the future of climate policy.
Last month, the Hanover and Dresden school boards unanimously voted to join a lawsuit against the Department of Education over a Feb. 14 letter that threatened to revoke funding for public schools engaged in “illegal” diversity, equity and inclusion practices. On April 24, a federal district court judge issued a preliminary injunction, halting the enforcement of the letter ahead of a currently unscheduled district hearing.
On May 4, the Dartmouth Student Government Senate met for its fifth weekly meeting of the spring term.
