The crew program began the fall season with a total of five new coaches, including three new head coaches for the men's lightweight, men's heavyweight and women's squads.
Nurtured, fed and defended since hatching, there comes the time for every fledgling bird to leave the safety of its mother's nest and fly off on unsteady wings into the dangers of the hostile world.

Preying upon the weak and innocent begets an easy meal and, after all, there are no morals in the animal world.
For many Dartmouth students, coming to Dartmouth meant an end to stellar high school athletic careers. A few students, however, have managed, through coaching, to transfer their passion for sports into winning records for their younger disciples.

In honor of this column's name, Kentucky Derby disappointment Bellamy Road will narrate this week's column. So, today, it's "Straight from the Horse's Mouth" instead.

Just hanging out around campus, stuff doesn't appear to be going too shabbily. I get from place to place and class to class, check my BlitzMail every so often, buy a meal at one of the many campus eateries when I'm hungry, maybe even take a break from online poker and browsing your personal files to check some assignments on blackboard. What could possibly be better?

Yes, it's wrong to stereotype, but goshdarnit, Canadians are such nice folks! They've contributed so much to American culture for so long (Dan Aykroyd, four-fifths of The Band, Molson, numerous cold fronts, the list goes on) that it's a wonder one nation could be so generous. What's more, now that a mad scramble for American dollars has strangled the life out of Canada's most revered institution, the National Hockey League, our neighbors to the north have not only turned the other cheek, they've sent us yet another gift for our entertainment.
