Thayer Throwdown

I consider myself a fairly reasonable person. I love women and hate sexism. Blitz me. However, I have to admit that I roll my eyes when Dartmouth Dining Services renames "Gingerbread Man" cookies "Gingerbread People." I also think that campus dialogue on gender equality shouldn't be mired in pointless debates over whether some '12 is a "freshman" or a "first-year."

Daily Debriefing
(09/24/08 6:34am)
The costume of Keggy the Keg, Dartmouth's unofficial mascot, has been missing since August, according to the Dartmouth's humor publication, the Jack-O-Lantern. The Jack-O-Lantern has already alerted the campus, as well as Safety and Security and Hanover Police to Keggy's disappearance. Dylan Kane '09, editor-in-chief of the Jack-O-Lantern, said the costume would be unusable, as the thief took only the plastic exterior, leaving the wearable harness behind. Keggy the Keg, who first appeared in fall 2003, has been a fixture at sporting events and big weekends at the College. He has also starred in Jack-O-Lantern productions, such as the video "Drinking Time," where he led a marching band down Webster Avenue.
