After defeating Brown University on March 1, Ryan Cornish ’25 strolled into the players’ lounge for the postgame press conference. Sitting down, Cornish contrasted the hug-filled 20 minutes which had preceded his march off the court in Leede Arena.
The Big Green has risen from the ashes. After a miserable 2023-24 season — in which the team finished 6-21 and last in the Ivy League, with a 2-12 conference record — Dartmouth has taken a dramatic step up in its play this season. The Big Green is 13-11 and, sitting at second place in the Ivy League at 7-4, has a chance to earn its first winning season since 1999. With an opportunity to play spoiler in Ivy Madness next month, The Dartmouth has found itself asking: Why is Dartmouth men’s basketball suddenly an Ivy League contender?

As the California wildfires continue to rage, devastating land, homes and livelihoods, newly inaugurated President Donald Trump has announced plans to declare a “national energy emergency.” This would grant him the authority to increase U.S. energy production and, as he puts it, “drill, baby, drill.” To a standing ovation on Inauguration Day, Trump announced sweeping legislation to end the Green New Deal and “electric vehicle mandate” — a mandate that does not actually exist — and to replenish American oil reserves, exporting American energy worldwide.
Though elections may be periods of confusion and uncertainty for the average voter, many social scientists see them as opportunities for research and data collection — including Carson Goh ’25, a government and quantitative social science double major. On Nov. 25, Goh won the Wilson Carey McWilliams award for best undergraduate research paper at the annual New England Political Science Conference in Newport, R.I. Goh’s paper, titled “Competition or Representation? How the Public Views Substantive and Descriptive Effects of Independent Redistricting Commissions,” explores how minorities are represented in elections. His research found support for independent redistricting commissions decreases when they are presented as threats to majority-minority districts — those where racial or ethnic minority populations form a district’s largest voting bloc. The Dartmouth sat down with Goh to discuss his background, research and plans after his upcoming graduation this spring.
