Oh dear, now what? I hear so many people complaining about the lack of things to do around here. Are they serious? So many things are happening on this campus every day. Sure, we don't live in New York City, but that just means we can walk around at 3 a.m. and feel safe.
With the Steering Committee actually making decisions, a lot of students are getting nervous again. What will become of the Greek system in a few years? Well I say, "Who needs it?"
I simply cannot get over the fact that I'm a student at Dartmouth College. I've been here for over a year now, but I still get chills when I hear the Alma Mater played on the Baker bells at 6 p.m. I hear a lot of people complaining about life here, but, personally, college is everything I've ever wanted and then some. The general population (myself included) is quick to criticize, and certainly it's worthwhile to challenge things and try to make them better. However, I think it's equally worthwhile to take a moment to appreciate how lucky we are. I've never experienced such an accepting, dynamic community as the one I find at Dartmouth.
I agree with the Trustees. What they have actually stated in writing is not a threat, if that is what they really mean. However, they have an agenda, one which is not written down, one which strikes at the core of Dartmouth's social organization and sense of community.
