Many students communicate their identity through the posters they hang on their walls, or the photos they post on their social media accounts. But, one of the most common modes of expression is also one that is all-too-often overlooked: our water bottles.

From crafting the perfect Collis smoothie order to claiming a favorite study spot on campus, students are slowly settling into their termly routines. For some, Collis Governing Board Trivia — hosted every Thursday at 9 p.m., either at Collis Common Ground or in One Wheelock — is a weekly fixture in their calendars. Armed with plates of pizza and garlic knots, students gather in groups of up to six to jot down answers, showing off their general knowledge and taking home prizes.

With the start of a new school year, the Class of 2025 is counting down to the day that they’ve worked towards for the last four years: Commencement. The dream of celebrating with peers and parents, diploma in hand, is what keeps many of us going during a particularly tough week studying on third floor Berry. Graduating from an institution like Dartmouth is an accomplishment on its own, but the cherry on top often comes in the form of a famed Commencement Day speaker crediting the senior class’s successes.

Transitioning from Dartmouth residence halls to off-campus housing can be a jarring change of pace. Paying rent and utility bills, coordinating trash and recycling pickups or engaging in small talk with neighbors — off-campus housing exposes many students to the responsibilities of full-fledged adulthood for the first time.

The New Hampshire Executive Council is one of those peculiar state bodies that wields substantial influence despite relative obscurity. It approves state budgets, confirms judges, oversees infrastructure projects — and has just five members. Karen Liot Hill ’00 is the Democratic nominee for the second Executive Council district, which includes Hanover. She won her primary on Sept. 10 by nearly 11 points and, given the district’s heavy Democratic lean, is the overwhelming favorite going into November. While at Dartmouth, Liot Hill helped launch programs such as First-Year Fellows and the Policy Research Shop. Since then, she has remained involved in local politics as the longest-serving member of the Lebanon City Council and a board member of the Lebanon Pedestrian & Bicyclist Advisory Committee. She also participates in WISE — a nonprofit that supports victims of gender-based violence in the Upper Valley. The Dartmouth sat down with Liot Hill to discuss her ongoing campaign, past political experiences and continued involvement in the Dartmouth community.

In April 2024, Catherine Harnois ’27 logged into her housing portal to find no available on-campus housing for her and her roommate. The duo was placed on a waitlist and given three options: remain on the waitlist, apply to a Living Learning Community or opt-in to an off-campus apartment at the Summit on Juniper complex, located approximately 3.2 miles — or a 15-minute bus ride — from campus in Lebanon, Harnois said.

Casey Ratzlaff is taking life match by match. The 26-year-old wheelchair tennis savant is the top-ranked American male wheelchair tennis player and an assistant coach for Dartmouth’s men’s varsity tennis team. Born with the rare disease spina bifida in 1988 — a decade after the first integrated Olympic and Paralympic games — Ratzlaff has grown up in the world of adaptive sports. He has racked up numerous accolades in his young career, winning a silver medal at the 2019 Parapan American Games games in Peru and representing the United States on seven World Team Cups. This summer, he competed at his second Paralympic games in Paris in both the singles and doubles divisions. In singles, Ratzlaff lost in the second round to Brazil’s Daniel Rodrigues. In doubles, Ratzlaff and his partner fell to Argentina in the opening round. The Dartmouth spoke with Ratzlaff to discuss his most recent competition in Paris, his reflections on the people and communities that have shaped him and his ambitions for the future.

Minutes after hitting a career-high 50-yard field goal, Owen Zalc ’27 once again set up his routine from 32 yards out. Down 14-13 with three seconds on the clock, his next kick would decide the Big Green’s fate against Merrimack University. Despite the pressure of the moment and the intense winds, Zalc was unfazed, sending the ball through the uprights to secure Dartmouth a narrow 16-14 victory at Duane Stadium in North Andover, Mass. on Sept. 28.

Following a very unexpected twist of events, my friends and I found ourselves at Chappell Roan’s last European concert for the Midwest Princess Tour on Sept. 23, during our time on the Berlin Foreign Study Program. Held at the Velodrom arena, the show replaced an earlier concert she had to cancel and drew a crowd of around 12,000 people — her largest audience outside of a festival to date. The atmosphere was a celebration of her creative vision. Many in the audience dressed like Roan herself, fully embracing the bold, vibrant fashion from her music videos. One person wore a pink cowboy outfit complete with glitter boots, while another sported an angel costume with a heart-patterned skirt and heart-shaped makeup accents. The attention to detail in their looks made the entire experience feel like a living, breathing extension of Roan’s art.

The age of cable television is essentially over. Youtube, Netflix, Hulu and Apple TV feature more content than we could ever consume, and many of the most beloved shows of our time — such as “Suits,” “Bridgerton” and “Squid Game” — are released on these on-demand streaming platforms. Media entertainment, it seems, is a never-ending source of instant gratification.
