A UGA's Perspective: Fostering Community in Dartmouth Dorms
While I agree with Dan Knecht's argument that collective punishment is not an ideal way to deal with dorm damage (The Dartmouth, "Collective Punishment: Bad Idea," October 20), I severely disagree with his last comments. His concluding paragraph states that he believes the Office of Residential Life should "hold UGAs partially responsible for the activities of their residents. Do not fine them, although that would be more 'just' than fining the whole floor since they are paid to supervise their residents, but encourage them to discuss problems with their residents and devise creative ways to stymie dorm damage."
