The best way to lead is to serve. As '06 Class President and a member of Student Assembly's Student Life Committee, I have learned just that.

For Kate Douglas '03, the debate over the role of the "Indian" symbol is not about the caricature or the power of images -- the debate is about Dartmouth coming to terms with its history and carving out a new identity.
