As September draws closer and your parents continue to berate you about packing for college, you’re going to be faced with an important realization. Your entire life and everything you own won’t fit snugly into a large suitcase and single carry-on bag. Moving to Dartmouth will require you to consider what is going to transfer to a new school with a new dress code and what you might have to leave behind. The capri army pants you wore on your first date in seventh grade may not be the hottest item in Hanover, but if they still fit, consider them for your flair drawer. To make the transition to Dartmouth a little easier, let’s start with a crucial question — what do we really wear at Dartmouth?

I’ve been influenced greatly by the written word at Dartmouth.

A few weeks ago, as I walked home from Collis, I witnessed a couple in the middle of the Green. Fully going at it. At 9 p.m. Not a single passerby intervened, giggled or ogled. Actually, no one so much as flinched. This, Dartmouth, is our cry for help.

You would never use your backpack as a battering ram to get to the front of the line at KAF, or would you? While it might be okay to be a little more aggressive at FoCo, there are several unwritten rules to dining etiquette at Dartmouth. After a year of observation, we have taken on the task of defining these unwritten rules to help out those of us who just don’t catch on to social cues.

Before you start filling out your transfer papers, don't fret. The students here have developed a thriving, eclectic Greek scene that offers a little something for everyone. Below is a brief introduction to all of the Greek organizations on campus. Before bolting out the door to begin your frat-hopping adventures after Homecoming weekend, be sure to put your name in your jacket and slip on some kind of indestructible footwear. Be prepared for both to end up ruined, stolen or left in a random person's room.

The amount of sports I typically watch is fairly limited. While I know the rules well enough to sit through a game, I would never say that I know (or care, for that matter) which team has the good players or the potential to do well. It took me a solid 15 minutes to find ESPN.

I took trips to Target for all entertainment purchases and picked out my casket at Costco, but there was a strong internal force that prevented me from ever wanting to endure the mentally taxing experience associated with the endless aisles and cavernous expanse of Wal-Mart.

When the temperatures start to drop and the sun goes into hibernation for weeks at time, there is a very good chance you will find me camped out on the floor of my room, hidden in a blanket cocoon and living off peanut butter, dry cereal and whatever else I can eat without leaving my little bubble-within-a-bubble. Even though every part of me wants to venture outside and build a snowman, skate around the pond and ridiculously frolic through the snow, my desires are overcome by my greatest loathing: getting dressed.

Then the years passed, and you discovered that this nice little dating scene was a devious fabrication of the entertainment industry, and your Friday nights were not going to include red roses, good night porch kisses or even legitimate conversation. Fictitious dates had completely poisoned your mind, leaving you with fantasy ideas that had no bearing on reality. And now, even though you know in your heart that IKEA employees don't actually let you make out in the beds and that any date that takes place at this furniture store will just leave you bickering over Swedish meatballs, a tiny piece of you is still holding out for that playful romp through floor displays from "500 Days of Summer."

When I step on the Dartmouth Coach and leave the Hanover bubble to head back home, I never look forward to the questions about school that are bound to be asked. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have a genuine conversation about how incredible this place is, but that always fails to happen.

Although we may be in the middle of nowhere, there is no shortage of places to appease your inner glutton after the sun goes down. Whether you're hungry, bored or just searching for something to keep you busy, late-night dining provides the answer.

Most definitions of a sibling relationship are highly subjective. Some prefer to casually coexist like the acquaintances you wave to at the grocery store, while others swear by the deep-rooted blood ties that unite their souls. Regardless of where you stand, there are some general things that we can universally agree you do not want to associate with your sibling: You do not want to think about your little sister engaging in a dance floor make out, nor do you want to watch your big brother collapse in the corner of a frat basement after one too many games of pong. If you don't want proof of your actions on the Internet, you probably don't want your sibling to witness them, either. Certain lines are not meant to be crossed.

You're reaching that age when you can't mention a casual movie date to your mom without her giving you that overly giddy smile. Facebook is notifying you of engagements, and they're not jokes. Your friends are bringing home positive pregnancy sticks and are happy about it. You do your best to ignore all of this and remind yourself that you're still young, you're in college, so there's no need to be rushing into the next stages of your life.
