When I reflect on my first days at Dartmouth, I recall being excited, curious and eager to dive in. For all its positives, a Dartmouth education also comes with considerable stress. In this world of high achievers who make everything look effortless, it’s easy to feel like you’re the only one struggling. I know I have felt that way. When I came down with mono during my first term, I needed to lean on this new community to ask for help. Professors, deans and classmates showed me grace and helped me through, and I’m grateful for that and their continued support. However, not every student feels comfortable asking for help and navigating the transition to college can be challenging. That’s what led me to Evergreen.AI. When I learned about the project, I saw its potential to make information at Dartmouth more accessible and less intimidating.

As fall term winds down and campus prepares for winterim, some Dartmouth students find themselves celebrating the holiday season weeks earlier than its actual dates. Rather than dampening festivities, the long break schedule has produced an array of unique traditions — from cozy craft nights to full-scale Thanksgiving banquets — that bring students together before they scatter for the six-week break.

Lately, I’ve been feeling like a broken record. Whenever anyone asks me how my term is going, the first thing I can think to say is, “It’s flying by.”

In “Verbum Ultimum: Make More Classrooms Device-Free,” the Editorial Board argues that banning laptops and phones “would be beneficial for all of our learning and mental health.” I understand the concern about distraction in class. However, for many disabled students, so-called “device-free” classrooms do not promote learning or focus. They exclude us from it. The Board claims that banning laptops and phones is “an easy, evidence-backed solution” for better learning. Easy for whom? Certainly not for disabled students who depend on technology for access and learning.

After listening to more than 200 albums released in 2025, I’ve grown dizzy from a musical landscape in constant motion. Sounds shift, genres intersect and new ideas flash by in an endless state of reinvention. Amid that chaos, “Oblivion” — the sixth full-length studio album from South African singer-songwriter Alice Phoebe Lou — offers a moment of stillness and a timeless reminder of music’s power to slow you down and make you feel human again.

Someone recently asked me why anyone should read my opinion columns. The exchange made me question everything that I had ever written in the past year. Who am I to say that the Co-Op is expensive without having taken a single economics class? Why should I be the one to criticise our obsessions with exclusivity while obsessing over a fraternity myself?

The Rockefeller Center for Public Policy hosted former Rep. Annie Kuster ’78, D-N.H., and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association — the national trade organization for solar and storage industries — Abigail Hopper ’93 for a conversation about energy policy. The two said President Donald Trump has discouraged the clean energy industry by denying permits and ending federal subsidies for clean energy developments.

When students think of learning at Dartmouth, they might picture a professor at the board, writing out equations as rows of undergraduates frantically scribble notes. However, plenty of learning happens outside the lecture hall, whether it be late-night tutoring sessions, small lab groups or office hours run by peers only a year or two older than the students they’re helping.

Artificial intelligence has reshaped the job hunting process. Major corporations — citing a shift toward artificial intelligence — are leading a trend in layoffs, with over 900,000 workers dismissed nationwide this year through September, according to CBS News. Job postings on the campus recruiting platform Handshake have reduced by 15% over the past year, while the number of applicants has risen by 30%, according to CNBC News.

One of my closest friends is a big hugger. If you asked me for an example of a person whose primary love language was physical touch, I would immediately direct you to her. This trait of hers, however, caught me a bit off guard when we first became friends during our freshman fall. If you asked me then for an example of a person whose primary love language was definitely not physical touch, I would have pointed to myself.

As we pass the midpoint of fall term, many freshmen like myself may find themselves reflecting on their time on campus thus far. Perhaps the excitement of the first few weeks has faded and been replaced by routine: the same familiar club meetings, ’53 Commons booths and library tables week in and week out. It’s all too easy to settle into our comfort zones, sticking with what feels safe and natural. We might try to rationalize this by appealing to convenience or reminding ourselves of our busy schedules. No matter the justification we come up with, it’s hard to deny that our reliance on routine can cause us to miss some of the most distinctive parts of Dartmouth life — the spontaneous, spirited and often-bizarre experiences that define this school’s culture.

As Dartmouth students continue to be concerned with the future of diversity, equity and inclusion programs under the Trump administration, our nation's top military official has launched yet another attack on what he describes as “identity months, DEI offices [and] dudes in dresses.”

In the past week, Dartmouth announced the development of an app called Evergreen, a chatbot meant to, in the words of the College, “help students flourish by providing personalized guidance and support in real time.” The bot will be designed by a team of 130 Dartmouth students who will put in a cumulative 100,000 hours to refine the bot. By the end of its development, Evergreen will be able to “speak like a Dartmouth student,” understanding campus slang and providing one-on-one counseling in moments of need.

Four weeks ago, when Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension from his late-night show dominated headlines, a less-watched yet infinitely worse television controversy unfolded. Brian Kilmeade, co-host of Fox & Friends, suggested euthanizing homeless people who don’t want to accept government assistance. He wasn’t fired or even suspended. But he should’ve been. Not doing so sets a horrible precedent.
