For Logan Henderson ’17, his identity as a trans and gender-queer person of color has been significantly affected by the College’s small size, lack of racial and ethnic diversity and location in a rural town. Most people hear the identity stories of wealthy, white people, Henderson said, adding that stories like his own are rarely, if ever, told.
There’s no better way of getting your hands on flair than through the old tradition of flair bequests (please don’t take these away, too, @admin) or simply happening upon an amazing piece at Goodwill. But, let’s be real, we’ve all had those *panic* moments just before semi, tails or themed parties when we just cannot find appropriate flair to wear. Luckily, Dartbeat has compiled a top ten list of the only websites you’ll ever need for buying any and all types of flair:
On Tuesday Feb. 16, the College’s fourth DartmouthX course will launch officially on edX, welcoming more than 2,000 students into the classroom of “The American Renaissance: Classic Literature of the 19th Century.” Following the launch, five new DartmouthX courses will be created throughout 2016 and 2017: “Question Reality! Physics, Philosophy and the Limits of Knowledge,” “Free Will, Attention, Top-Down Causation and Consciousness in the Brain,” “John Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost’,” “Materials in Gear” and “Complementary and Alternative Medicine.”
If you are like me, you have long known at a base, emotional level that the whole policy cycle — agenda setting, development solutions, decision-making and implementation — does not involve you. Wars are started, poverty ignored, the climate thrown out of balance and the police/prison system develops without anyone asking you — no survey, phone call, vote or post card. Not only were you not consulted, but in all likelihood no one you have ever known has ever had any impact on any policy outcome (though this is less true at Dartmouth).

On Thursday, Oct. 1, a gunman opened fire at Umpqua Community College — a small school in Roseburg, Oregon — and killed nine people. Counting the shooter, who died by suicide, the death tally totaled 10 by the day’s end. “Let me be very clear, I will not name the shooter,” replied Sheriff John Hanlin, whose force was responsible for answering the shooting spree. “I will not give him the credit he probably sought prior to this horrific and cowardly act.” This was the correct response — in the face of tragedy, we should remember the victims instead of the murderer, and understand how these catastrophes affect us both as a nation and as individual people.

Freshman Year: 2011-2012
For the men’s and women’s track and field teams, months of training and preparation will culminate in two days of competition this weekend when the teams travel to the University of Pennsylvania to compete in the Ivy League Heptagonal Championships. For both teams Heps is the most important meet of the spring season, after the NCAA Regional Championships.
I’m not sure if I’m allowed to have nostalgia at a time like this. This is the men’s ice hockey’s story, and I am a writer, the ultimate inside-outsider. There’s an otherworldly aspect to the sport that I both understand and don’t — enough that I feel I can write something about it but just enough mystery to keep my eyes glued to what unfolds on the ice. The game can become so intense I don’t realize I’ve stopped breathing until I hear the final buzzer and I let out the pent up air, unaware that so much apprehension could fit inside my 5’2” frame.
Graduate students inhabit the same campus as the College’s undergraduate population, but experience different forms of academic and social life.
According to the Gregorian calendar, 2015 is underway.
Before 10 a.m. on Thursday morning, students trickled into Cook Auditorium, several sitting on the stairs. It was the class’s first meeting since judicial affairs director Leigh Remy spoke to students who allegedly misrepresented their attendance in “Sports, Ethics and Religion.”
On Oct. 30, religion professor Randall Balmer discovered that 43 students who had seemingly answered in-class quiz questions using hand-held clickers had not been present in his course, “Sports, Ethics and Religion.”
Forty-three students may be implicated in an academic dishonesty case after religion professor Randall Balmer found a discrepancy between the number of students digitally submitting answers to in-class questions and the number of students present in class on Oct. 30. Balmer held the accused students, enrolled in “Sports, Ethics and Religion,” after class on Tuesday so that judicial affairs director Leigh Remy could inform them of their rights and possible disciplinary action.
The women’s soccer team lost its final game of the season Saturday 1-0 at Cornell University. The Big Green (8-5-4, 3-1-3 Ivy) took the second-place spot in the Ivy League Saturday, four points behind Harvard University. Cornell (8-9-0, 2-5-0 Ivy) moved up from last place in the Ivy League to seventh with the win.
At the end of August each year, millions of people across the country gather in living rooms, basements and man-caves for an ever-growing American tradition: the fantasy football draft. To bystanders it appears as nothing more than a waste of time, a “boys will be boys” tradition that subtly flies under the radar. But to draft participants, the men and women who seek a little more out of sports than ESPN updates and feel-good profile stories, it’s a time to immerse themselves in a world more concerned with statistics and points than team loyalty and game outcomes.
Bruce Wood has not missed a Dartmouth football practice in nine years. The founder of the Big Green Alert blog, Wood has covered Dartmouth’s gridiron gang online for nearly the last decade. And as Ivy League media day approaches, Wood remains in the bleachers, preparing his next post.
When head coaching positions are endowed by wealthy donors, the Big Green receives additional support to pursue athletic success. On Monday, Dartmouth announced that four more teams — men’s hockey, women’s rowing, men’s heavyweight rowing and women’s alpine skiing — would receive similar funding, thanks to four alumni gifts totaling $7 million.
Student Assembly presidential and vice-presidential candidates discussed the “Freedom Budget,” Bored at Baker and building community at Dartmouth in a debate hosted by the Inter-Community Council last night.
