That the administration does not act in good faith is painstakingly evident. That they do not care about student opinion is clear. That they go out of their way to destroy the Greek system through underhanded and disguised tactics cannot be mistaken. After the latest instance of administrative attempts to control the lives and undermine the will of the students, the student body at large has come to these realizations. Administrators, the students of Dartmouth sadly accept the fact that the you are not working with us to create a better Dartmouth, but instead working against us to change the face of the school in significant and unnecessary ways. Thus, I am not writing this column to demonstrate to the student body your descent to the level of cartoon super-villains, nor am I making a plea to you to care for and respect the student body. Instead, I intend to point out the pragmatic problems with your senseless crusade and illustrate how, from an objective standpoint, it will do great harm to the school.

For over 50 years, most incoming Dartmouth freshmen have received their first taste of the College and its environs during their freshman trips. Organized by the Dartmouth Outing Club, the showerless outdoor introductory experience for the freshmen is only the beginning of the organization's many offerings. The DOC offers enough opportunities -- for both the hardcore and not-so-hardcore -- to keep any Dartmouth student busy for all four years at the College.

I am officially starting the JACOF (Jourdan Abel Carhartt Ownership Fund). The velvet pants are not going to cut it anymore. So come by 1-- Mid Mass (Colin's palace) and drop a dime or two in the JACOF bowl (not to be confused with the Chugach Powder Fund). Wouldn't it be cool if the DOC was responsible for the introduction of these 'sweet orange pieces of asphalt' (coined by Colin) to the greater Miami area?"

Pushing through the back doors of Collis towards Robo and Thayer, a wispy gust greets me. As I descend the steps, my eyes adjust to the darkness of the cold winter evening and the orange glow from the flake filled night sky. To my right, vans are being loaded with packs and cross-country skis as an excited group heads out into the mountains for a magical weekend. Familiar faces shuffle in and out of Thayer and join in the gathering of acquaintances reveling in the quiet of the newly fallen snow. With my feet crunching over a blanket of white towards Mass Row, I recall one of my main reasons for choosing Dartmouth College.
