As I’m sure we’ve all seen, former President Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt at a rally in Butler, Pa. on July 13. While this historical event has rightfully shocked Americans, the narratives espoused on our airwaves did not fully reckon with the shortcomings of democracy in the United States. Rather, many focused on denying the fact that our democracy is faltering. In a press conference held hours after the assassination attempt, for example, President Joe Biden told viewers that “this is not America” and that there was “no place for this kind of violence in America.”
On July 20, a court approved Dartmouth’s $33.75 million settlement proposal in a class action lawsuit accusing the College — along with 16 other universities — of violating antitrust laws and conspiring to minimize financial aid for working and middle-class families, according to a press release shared by a representative for Gilbert Litigators & Counselors, one of the law firms representing the plaintiffs.

Following a seventh place finish in the Ivy League last season, the Big Green softball team has struggled to gain traction this year. The team enters the spring term with a 4-9 record, following two tournaments, as well as games against Harvard University and Boston College.
Take a stroll around the first floor of Baker-Berry Library on the day that courses drop and you will find Dartmouth students comparing schedules, reading Layup List — a website that offers course and professor reviews — and furiously browsing online for classes to fulfill their graduation requirements. For many, the jigsaw puzzle of finishing your major alongside the litany of distributive requirements is an unwelcome chore. Why should an engineering student “waste” a credit on an English course? In turn, why should an English student be forced to take a class in physics or chemistry?
In 1995, Dartmouth’s total tuition for one year including fees, food and housing was $23,615. Today it amounts to $84,270. While inflation and improvements to financial aid account for part of the tuition increase, the vast majority of tuition increases have gone towards increased operating costs. Proponents of the College’s current tuition scheme might argue that despite increasing costs, Dartmouth is more accessible than ever. Today’s financial aid packages no longer contain student loans, and Dartmouth’s financial aid website states that “families with total annual income below $65,000… have a zero parent contribution expectation.” Yet, Dartmouth remains inaccessible to many middle-class families.
This weekend, men’s hockey hosted Eastern College Athletic Conference opponents Clarkson University and St. Lawrence University at Thompson Arena.

Besting the San Francisco 49ers 25–22 in overtime, the Chiefs summited the American Football pyramid for the second year in a row, and for the third time in the past 5 years. In recent memory, the Chiefs, led by superstar quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, have been the team to beat. They have made the AFC Conference championship every year since 2018 and have made the Super Bowl in four of the past five years. Despite this precedent, the 49ers were the odds’ favorite going into the game.
