To the Editor:
The practice of periodic introspection on my college experience has typically produced a smug smile on my face, indicative of my pride, enjoyment, and an overall agreeable outlook on my Dartmouth days. Despite incompatible D-plans, residential disjunction, and a scatter plot of academic pursuits, this joy-packed inner aura has served to promote personal social continuity. I associate this emotion with my vision of "Old Dartmouth," an institution united by a defined cultural fabric and a unique sense of community. Undoubtedly my short three-year stint here disqualifies me from credibly defining "Old Dartmouth", but at the same time it seems that this abbreviated timeframe is of particular relevance given the contemporary social turbulence that dominates our institution. My vision of Dartmouth, formulated over the course of only a half-dozen terms, has been demolished in the last six months. The complacent smile no longer appears when I consider my relationship with Dartmouth -- its replacement is a neutral, identity-less expression of confusion and bewilderment.
