The personal information of over 40,000 people, including Social Security numbers and bank account information, was compromised in an August cyberattack on Dartmouth’s Oracle E-Business Suite software, according to data breach notices filed by the College with state attorneys general in New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine on Nov. 24, 2025.
In Part I of this series, I charted democracy’s public decline, showing how Congress’s long retreat from its constitutional role hollowed out the balance of power and accelerated America’s own unraveling. Here, in Part II, I examine what has filled that vacuum: a judiciary that has abandoned its role as a check, an executive that increasingly operates without constraint and states adopting the same habits of impunity. I argue that these institutions now enable the very abuses they were created to prevent, allowing a slow-motion dissolution of democracy in broad daylight.
Over the last 15 years, I have met a myriad of medical school applicants: some fueled by intense ambition, some exhausted, some used to excelling, but all overwhelmed. As the founder of the medical school admissions consulting company Inspira Advantage, I am familiar with the traditional methods of handling feeling overwhelmed. However, in the last year or so, medical school applicants have begun turning to something else entirely: artificial intelligence.
On Dec. 15, the College extended its offers of early admission to the Class of 2030. For a second year, the College declined to release information on how many students applied or were accepted until the regular decision period concludes in March.
After a historic season, the Dartmouth women’s soccer team’s season came to an end on Friday night in Fayetteville, Ark.
With the home crowd packed into the Berry squash courts on Saturday, the Dartmouth men’s and women’s squash teams — ranked ninth and 11th in the country, respectively — delivered statement performances in their season opener against Middlebury College. Both of the Big Green squads swept the Panthers 9-0, combining precision, pace and relentless energy to start the home campaign on dominant footing.
On Nov. 5, Democrats swept state elections across the east coast. In New Hampshire, however, incumbent Republicans were re-elected to municipal offices across the state, amidst rising polarization of the state legislature. How these trends will play out in New Hampshire’s upcoming midterm elections rests on the uniquely local character of the state’s politics.
On Nov. 14, the College hosted First Amendment litigator Kathleen Farley ’10 for an event titled “Transitioning Advocacy and Activism Efforts from Campus to Community: What to Know.” Farley was a member of the legal team that won the National Press Photographers Association First Amendment Award in 2023 for ensuring reform in the New York Police Department after photojournalists were assaulted and arrested at Black Lives Matter protests in 2020.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., pushed the Dartmouth community to remember that “we live in the best of times” at a Rockefeller Center for Public Policy event on Nov. 14.
College President Sian Leah Beilock announced on Tuesday plans to expand Dartmouth’s Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program during the annual Veteran’s Day Recognition Breakfast on Nov. 11. In her address, Beilock also shared goals to double the number of undergraduate veterans and build a university-wide community for military-affiliated students, staff and faculty.
On Nov. 4, Dartmouth announced the construction of Alumnae Hall, a new residence hall funded entirely by women, alongside the development of an accompanying four-acre Riverfront Park. The project marks the latest installment of a 10-year, $500 million housing initiative announced during College President Sian Leah Beilock’s inauguration aimed at creating at least 1,000 new beds for students, faculty and staff by 2033.
Former U.S. ambassador-at-large for the Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy Nathaniel Fick ’99 told students to spend time in public service and spoke about the role of innovation in foreign policy at a Nov. 12 talk.
With the 2025 elections now behind us — and the staggering Democratic wins across the board — we’ve received our first new dataset of polling accuracy since last year’s presidential election. American politics moves at nearly the speed of light, so reflecting back 12 months can be a formidable effort. But two key names are bound to ring bells for the political junkies far and wide: Ann Selzer and Nate Silver. Both of these pundits saw sweeping success in predicting election outcomes in the past but chose to take divergent paths in last year’s presidential election. While the heydays of these two are more likely than not behind them, they still embody the good and bad of election forecasting and an alarming trend that plagues the profession: herding.

For the third consecutive year, The Dartmouth conducted a survey polling the perspectives and opinions of current first-year students after their first term at Dartmouth. Members of the Class of 2029 were asked to compare their high school and college experiences and share their viewpoints on Dartmouth’s Orientation Week, academics and various aspects of student life.
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.
At the end of my sophomore summer, I found myself standing in the backyard of my sorority house under a canopy of twinkle lights and gold streamers. Everything glowed — the grass, the music, the people I loved, all blurred together in this warm, shimmering haze. We were laughing and crying and dancing in circles, hugging each other so tightly it felt like maybe, if we held on long enough, we could keep the night from ending. Later, after everyone drifted home, a few of us climbed out onto the roof, still in our formal dresses, staring out over the edge as we talked into the early hours of the morning. It was dramatic in the most delicious way, an ending that knew it was an ending.
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.”
Richard Linklater is known for one-shot scenes, meditations on the passage of time and penetrating dialogue. In “Blue Moon,” his most recent film, he combines all three components as expected alongside mediations on self-destruction, love and the human condition. However, while the movie has some stunning moments, the opening third is a slog with none of the restraint of Linklater’s “Before” trilogy or experimentation of his film “Boyhood.” Fortunately, standout performances by Ethan Hawke and the supporting actors mostly make up for this weakness.
