Laundry Day — a New York City-based indie-rock band — will perform at Sarner Underground on Jan. 18 at 8:30 p.m. The show will be the band’s second of the new year, following a New York Knicks halftime performance at Madison Square Garden on Jan. 8.
In a gaudy Las Vegas chapel, Brooklyn stripper Anora — played by Mikey Madison — marries Mark Eydelshteyn’s Vanya, the son of a Russian oligarch. Two weeks later, the couple is divorced. You probably aren’t surprised. Sean Baker’s new film, “Anora,” is about the bloom and collapse of an improbable dream. It’s disappointing; we’d like to believe in the Cinderella story, that hierarchy can be ignored and discarded so that myth may emerge in its place. Baker refuses to deliver that satisfaction. In “Anora,” the fantasy crumbles into dust — albeit glittery, Brighton Beach dust. We are left only with Anora’s sadness.
During her Oct. 11, 2024, “State of Community” address to faculty, Beilock remarked, “As much as we care what alumni think and will continue to listen on critical issues affecting our community, it is the faculty and staff and leadership in this room and on our campus that shape our direction.” This comment reveals a dangerous disconnect between how Beilock views alumni — arguably the College’s backbone — and other community members. We are concerned about how College President Sian Leah Beilock reorganizes the College at an institutional level.
Somewhere in West Texas last September, Bond Almand IV ’26 lapped water from a cow trough. The cyclist was out of water, and the next town was 20 miles away. He sweltered under 106 degree heat as a forest of oil rigs stretched out before him.
This August, many of us will peruse through the endless aisles of IKEA with our parents, arguing over comforter patterns and pillowcase sizes. In September, we’ll pack up our lives and drive or fly to Hanover, eager to start anew. Yet leaving our homes behind is far more complicated for some of us. For Omar Rashid, an incoming member of the Class of 2029 currently living in Gaza, the journey to Dartmouth is fraught with unimaginable challenges, and his dream of joining our community hangs by a thread.
On Dec. 10, the College introduced its new Institutional Restraint Policy on institutional statements, which replaced the Institutional Statements vs Individual Statements Policy that had been in effect since June of 2022.
If you are a regular visitor of the Class of 1953 Commons, it has been difficult to miss Dartmouth Dining’s new hand scanner initiative that promises the ability to scan into Foco with just a wave of your hand. It seems that Dartmouth Dining has a table set up in the building entryway to sign students up for the program almost every time I pass through. Dining workers have been offering candy and other incentives for students to scan their hand prints. Although it might seem like a small change, I believe Dartmouth Dining’s aggressive push towards using this technology at Foco is a shameless attempt to cut costs that presents unaddressed privacy concerns about the storage and protection of student biometric data.
For the second consecutive year, The Dartmouth conducted a survey polling the experiences and opinions of the current first-year class — the Class of 2028 — after their first term at Dartmouth. Students were asked to compare their high school and college experiences and share their views on Dartmouth’s Orientation Week, academics and campus culture.
After a weekend sweep, men’s ice hockey is nationally ranked for the first time since the 2019-2020 season at 17th. The Big Green defeated nationally-ranked Quinnipiac 4-2 on Nov. 8 and demolished Princeton 5-1 the next day to start the season 4-0-0 for the first time since the 1957-1958 season.

The move marks the Hood’s first traveling exhibition in over a decade, according to curatorial affairs associate director and Hood Indigenous Art curator Jami Powell.
They like to say our country is doomed.
Election Day 2024 has arrived, as millions of Americans prepare to head to the polls and cast their ballots in Hanover and around the nation.
A recent op-ed by Jacob Markman ’27 claims that the “anti-Israel movement” is “coercive,” “illiberal” and overly antagonistic to students with Zionist and pro-Israel attitudes. In it, Markman argues that student protesters should engage in “open conversation and discussion” rather than “sign-waving and name-calling.” Throughout his piece, Markman seems to treat the movement as if its goal is to create happy spaces for pro-Israel students to chat with pro-Palestinian students, wherein the former can be comfortable in their support for Israel’s war in Gaza while agreeing to disagree with those who support Palestinian life.
The Fling, a rock-focused student cover band founded in spring 2024, has its roots in a late night Denny’s visit, according to keyboard player and vocalist Darby Waller ’25. At 4 a.m., Waller and guitarist and vocalist Greg Hirsch ’25 — then classmates in MUS 22, “Creative Music Theory II” — found themselves discussing the possibility of a new band over eggs and pancakes.

For most Americans, the word “Halloween” conjures images of costumes, candy and haunted decorations. At Dartmouth, it is a beloved and highly anticipated holiday, featuring festive activities: costume parties held in dorms or fraternities, group movie marathons and pumpkin carving contests.
In addition to the profound contributions former East European, Eurasian and Russian studies department chair and Provost Barry Scherr made to the College, he was “a wonderful father” who was “always present,” according to his son David Scherr.
