The age of cable television is essentially over. Youtube, Netflix, Hulu and Apple TV feature more content than we could ever consume, and many of the most beloved shows of our time — such as “Suits,” “Bridgerton” and “Squid Game” — are released on these on-demand streaming platforms. Media entertainment, it seems, is a never-ending source of instant gratification.

Returning home to Connecticut is a confusing experience for me. While it’s great to leave the Dartmouth bubble for a while, it doesn’t take long for me to miss the separation Dartmouth offers from my childhood friends and family. After working in Washington, D.C. this summer, I returned home to finish the rest of the summer in peace. However, my time at home has compelled me to describe a phenomenon that I suspect many Dartmouth students do not interact with on campus — one that is singularly powerful in our politics today. The narrative of “White American Victimhood” — or the narrative that white people have been systematically disadvantaged in modern American society — permeates communities across the country. The concept has fueled what I deem to be the most influential and dangerous political movement of our time. However, before addressing its consequences, I have to define it. The only way to quell this movement though, is through understanding and showing empathy to those who have been swept up in it.

As the chirping of cicadas hushes to the soft crunch of fallen leaves, the changing sounds of the Upper Valley signal that fall has arrived. This shift from summer to fall begs the question: Does the music playing from our headphones change as drastically as the music of the natural world?

Last spring, College President Sian Leah Beilock announced the Dartmouth Climate Collaborative — a $500 million campus-wide decarbonization project which aims to reduce carbon emissions by 60% by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

After Dartmouth removed Core Power shakes from most dining locations — a result of a switch from Coke to Pepsi products in August — a Change.org petition titled, “Bring Back Core Power to Dartmouth: We Need Our Protein!” began circulating on social media, garnering 23 signatures. The petition is meant to be comedic, but it reflects an underlying problem at Dartmouth — the College does not understand what students want.

A few days ago, I decided that I would write this week’s Editor’s Note about trying to slow down and pay more attention to my surroundings. Mere hours ago, I was out on a run and, in a cruel display of irony, my advice came back to haunt me. For a moment, I stopped paying attention to the road beneath my feet and started mentally cataloging my to-do list. I promptly tripped and scraped my knee, hand and elbow, leaving me to run the last mile back to campus covered in blood and extremely upset.

From the ongoing Israel-Palestinian conflict to the two assassination attempts against former president Donald Trump to Vice President Kamala Harris becoming the Democratic presidential nominee, 2024 has proven to be one of the most politically memorable years in recent history. With the uncertainties of this election season coming to a head as November approaches, it can be frustrating — and, at times, even exhausting — to remain completely knowledgeable about the ever-changing political climate.

After being away from campus for three months on summer break, I drove up West Wheelock Street and noticed an unusual abundance of green-netted fences. I turned to my left and realized something was off — Collis Center and Robinson Hall were almost completely obstructed from view.

One of Dartmouth’s most cited drawbacks is its location. Even students who love New Hampshire’s rural, mountainous scenery feel the itch to run away to a city or to get away for the weekend. With travel comes fun, but also stress. What should you do? Where should you go? Who should you go with?

On Sept. 14, College President Sian Leah Beilock published a piece in The Atlantic titled “Saving the Idea of the University.” In it, she claims that a university’s power is diminished when a particular student group or faculty body imposes a single viewpoint on campus. She stresses that universities must instead support “ideological diversity.”

Colleen Hoover’s “It Ends With Us” became a bestseller after going viral on BookTok — a book-focused subcommunity on TikTok — during the COVID-19 pandemic. It spent 140 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list and sold 8 million copies. Thus, it was hardly surprising that fans were ecstatic when director Justin Baldoni optioned the film adaptation in July 2019. Starring Baldoni as Ryle and Blake Lively as Lily Bloom, the movie premiered on Aug. 9 and exceeded $100 million at the global box office in its first week.
