On Sept. 10, Democratic candidate Maggie Goodlander and Republican candidate Lily Tang Williams won their respective primaries to represent New Hampshire’s 2nd Congressional District, currently held by retiring Democratic Rep. Annie Kuster ’78.
For the ninth consecutive year, The Dartmouth surveyed the opinions and experiences of Dartmouth’s graduating class. Since arriving at Dartmouth in 2020, the Class of 2024 has experienced substantial change — witnessing two College presidencies, disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the loss of multiple classmates. The Dartmouth aims to capture our unique graduating class’s final thoughts in this article. The Dartmouth’s survey canvased the following four topics: campus issues, student life, national and local politics and post-graduation plans.
We appreciate that our colleagues working on student well-being face incredible pressure and are constrained by Dartmouth’s definition of the problem. We were, nonetheless, stunned by the framing of the May 23 “Day for Community” as a “journey of reflection, connection and community building following the protest on the Green on May 1,” according to a message from the College’s chief health and wellness officer, Estevan Garcia. Last Thursday’s event was advertised as an opportunity for healing — healing, apparently, from the peaceful May 1 protest, but not from the mass arrests, physical injuries and collective harm inflicted on students, faculty and staff by the police response to that protest.
With 19 first-place finishes, the men’s and women’s track and field teams showcased their capabilities at the George Davis Invitational, held at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell on April 19 and 20. This weekend, the teams competed in the 2024 Ivy League Heptagonal Outdoor Championships in Princeton, where the women’s team placed seventh and the men’s team placed fifth.
As yet another admissions cycle wraps up, students across the country and world are making big decisions about their futures. Some will enter immediately into the workforce, while others will be drawn to professional training through trade schools or military service. For the majority of Americans, however, high school graduation signals the start of additional schooling at a college or university. It is concerning that a contingent of those students will have their plans derailed not by grades or test scores, but by ballooning tuition costs.
On March 28, the College admitted 1,685 students to the Class of 2028, according to past reporting by The Dartmouth. Students admitted during regular decision joined 606 early decision admits and 74 students accepted through QuestBridge. In light of the 2028 admissions cycle coming to a close, The Dartmouth surveyed current undergraduates on their views of the College’s admissions practices.
At the end of fall 2023, The Dartmouth surveyed the Class of 2027 about their views on the fraternity ban, the College’s Greek First Year Safety and Risk Reduction policy, which restricts first-year students from attending events at Greek organizations for most of their fall term. Last fall, the Greek Leadership Council, in collaboration with College administration, permanently extended the ban until November 1, according to past reporting by The Dartmouth. The new rule guaranteed that first-year students are excluded from Greek spaces on Homecoming and Halloween weekends.
Now, only one contest remains. The Dartmouth Big Green men’s basketball team made their final weekend road trip, with contests at Yale University and Brown University on Friday and Saturday, respectively.
On Feb. 28, a court preliminarily approved Dartmouth’s settlement proposal in a class-action lawsuit that accused 17 universities of violating antitrust laws and conspiring to minimize financial aid for students from working- and middle-class families.
