Despite the recent wave of superhero fatigue that has been whittling audience’s attention spans, Marvel’s “Thunderbolts*” offers a refreshing, thought-provoking take on the stalling genre. Marvel films have been criticized for their lack of depth in recent years, but “Thunderbolts*” aims to set Marvel on a new path. The film handles depression, loneliness and finding one’s place in the world with a candor that surprised me.

As of April 21, the College has refused to bargain with our union in any further negotiating sessions. They have also refused to extend the current Dartmouth Dining student worker contract. What this means is that the College’s legal counsel rejected meeting with our rank-and-file, student-led bargaining team moving forward, making it more challenging to contractually preserve many of our vital protections for student workers, such as hour and workload security, discipline and discharge, and grievance protections for student workers seeking to resolve issues with their employer. In sum, the College has refused to protect key benefits for hundreds of student workers — especially against law enforcement officials and the rising cost of tuition.
Picture this: it’s Friday night after a busy week, and you and your friends decide to share dinner in town. When it’s time to pay the bill, you look at your server, reach for your Dartmouth ID, and say, “I’d like to use Dartmouth dining dollars, please.” Now, what if I told you that this scenario isn’t as far from reality as you may think?
