Welcome to week 8, Mirror. The combination of Homecoming weekend, the presidential election and the New York City Marathon — all of which somehow took place within the past week — have stirred up a strange cocktail of emotions within me, ranging from nostalgia to dread and everything in between. While I spent the better part of Election Day glued to the incremental shifts of The New York Times election forecast needle, I’m fairly confident that no one who reads this Editor’s Note is looking to me to provide political commentary — especially since this is the first presidential election in which I was old enough to vote.

Every time I exit my third-floor bedroom and walk out the front door of my sorority house, I pass the roughly 1,500 faces of former sorority members hanging in the hallways. On each floor of the house are annual composites — large, framed collections of photos of each active member in the chapter. As I brush my teeth in the morning or head upstairs after studying, I have developed a pastime of scanning the walls for fashion trends, fun hairstyles and familiar last names.

A mob of ghosts crowd the street. Mummies shuffle forward with arms outstretched while autumn leaves crunch beneath their cloth-wrapped feet. They all march towards the same door, outlined by a white arch set in colonial brick.

Last weekend, my sketch comedy group traveled to Yale University. Our three-hour drive down I-91 transported us from the nearly-bare trees of New Hampshire to the bright orange leaves of New Haven, Conn. When we arrived, towering Gothic buildings bathed in the early evening light cast shadows on cobblestone paths. Police and ambulance sirens echoed in the distance.

Visiting Salem, Mass. in October feels like stepping into a cross between a history book and a Halloween carnival. Driving into the quaint town, your eyes are immediately drawn to the sheer force of crowds flooding the sidewalks. Cars line up bumper to bumper, and every turn reveals another wave of people bustling with excitement and anticipation. The town feels transformed, swept up in centuries-old mystique. Salem in October is undeniably larger than life — a place where history, spectacle and human fascination collide.

Any student walking around campus will undoubtedly encounter a construction project, from the ongoing renewal of the Fayerweather Halls to the newly-redone Brace Commons. Just down the road, on West Wheelock Street, the College has broken ground on Russo Hall — upperclassmen, apartment-style housing set to open in 2026. These projects are a part of Dartmouth’s $500 million commitment to meet the College’s housing demand. The Beilock administration has committed an additional $500 million to the Dartmouth Climate Collaborative to reduce the College’s emissions through improving its physical plant — including the decarbonization and structural renewal of residence halls. The collaborative is outlined as one of the major ambitions under College President Sian Leah Beilock’s administration.

With less than six minutes left in the fourth quarter on Oct. 19, the Big Green seemed to be falling apart. Down 16-13 to Central Connecticut State University, quarterback Grayson Saunier ’27 lost his helmet and hurt his ankle on second and goal at the one-yard line, taking him out for the next snap. Freshman quarterback Kyle Meier ’28 replaced Saunier, but Meier — making his Dartmouth debut — fumbled the ball, which CCSU recovered. Distraught, Dartmouth head coach Sammy McCorkle looked to the sideline officials for a lifeline: a defensive penalty.

For many Dartmouth students, a mention of “the Lodge” might spark visions of First-Year Trips, flair and the chaos of hundreds of students after spending the previous three days isolated in the wilderness. But those two weeks in early September when the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge is bursting with nervous freshmen and covered in signs, streamers and balloons only represent a small portion of the Lodge’s character.

In early September, the Class of 2028 arrived to a campus under renovation, with fewer spaces available to socialize than previous freshman cohorts had experienced. The two-year construction of the Fayerweather Halls, which began in June 2024, as well as the initial phase of renovations to the Collis Center porch, has eliminated two spots where past freshmen classes typically socialized.

On Oct. 7, the Hanover Selectboard named Robert Houseman the new town manager — the position responsible for managing Town departments and ensuring that Town operations address the needs of residents. Houseman previously spent two months as interim town manager after Alex Torpey stepped down from the position in July. Before stepping into the role, Houseman served as director of the Hanover department of planning, zoning and codes from 2016 to July 2024. In all, Houseman has 38 years of municipal experience across New Hampshire, including as a circuit rider planner in Durham and a cartographer in Wolfeboro. The Dartmouth sat down with Houseman to discuss the local housing crisis, staffing shortages and his plans for Hanover.
