The College’s website lists 43 people working in the Office of Communications. With an army of in-house flacks at its disposal, why then would the College need to employ a student and secretly work with him on an op-ed hyping Evergreen.AI for The Dartmouth?
The America of today is built upon a foundation erected 80 years ago in the wake of the most devastating conflict the world has ever seen. For decades, America has reaped the rewards of that great victory, but a foundation laid eight decades ago is bound to crack, crumble and mangle. Just because one hasn’t sensed something wrong until recently — or at all — does not mean that all is well.
On Tuesday, CNN political commentator Scott Jennings and “The View” co-host Ana Navarro debated the future of the Republican Party at a Dartmouth Political union event. The pair took opposing sides — Jennings answering in the affirmative and Navarro in the negative — on the following resolution: “By and large, the current trends in the Republican Party during the Trump years will continue in the 2028 election and beyond.”
From Feb. 5 to Feb. 8, “The Blizzard of Oz” will take the Dartmouth community on a hot air balloon ride to the “Wicked Cold” 116th Winter Carnival, a weekend of winter festivities inspired by the world of “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” and its spin-offs.
Fifty-nine individuals were evacuated, one of whom was hospitalized for cold exposure, after a chairlift at the Dartmouth Skiway malfunctioned on Jan. 29, according to NBC Boston. The incident prompted an emergency response from the Dartmouth Ski Patrol and several Upper Valley fire departments.
In the first week of the 2026 legislative session, New Hampshire lawmakers passed two bills that could alter abortion access in the state, according to the New Hampshire Bulletin. H.B. 232, which was passed by the state House on Jan. 8, enshrines the legal right of healthcare providers “to conscientiously object to participating” in an abortion. H.B. 191, which passed the state Senate on Jan. 7, seeks to criminalize aiding a minor in traveling to receive an abortion or any surgical procedure “without parental permission.”
Dearest fine readers of Mirror,
Every day, hundreds of students pass through Baker Berry Library to get a moment of warmth from the below freezing temperatures of Hanover, N.H. At its grand entrance, Reiss Hall — otherwise known as Blobby — the many couches and group tables rest atop a checkered floor, bustling with students. Welcome mats become covered in snow, couches get moved, tables shift — chip bags and muddied footprints from the snow are left behind in the continuous flow of students.
Every first-year Dartmouth student inevitably runs late to a Molly’s dinner by discovering the records store on Main Street. Time easily flies by as they get lost in the various pop artist prints, Dr. Seuss stickers and old 90s records. The rpmNH Records and Posters store’s owner is a man who wears many hats: storyteller, geologist, artist and longtime resident of Hanover, Brian Smith.
Anna Leversee is program manager for social sector leadership at the Dartmouth Center for Social Impact. With more than 10 years of experience in social impact programming, mental health and education, she has worked in numerous local, national and international contexts, including teaching in Medellín, Colombia, and leading educational nonprofit programs in Massachusetts. The Dartmouth sat down with Leversee to discuss her experiences with and approach to social impact, as well as her advice for students interested in pursuing careers in public service.
Recently, I’ve spent a lot of time driving through local one-lane highways to find stories for my podcast class. The car I take doesn’t have an aux cord, so as I weave through snow-capped trees, I do a lot of thinking. This week my mind has been wandering to my first-year self: Young, bright-eyed, one foot in front of the other into Mid Fayerweather room 109. During Orientation Week, I sat on my twin XL knowing four things: I wanted to join a comedy group, play club field hockey, go on the London abroad for the English major and, of course, write for Mirror. In amazing news that would shock and delight this version of me, all of these things came true!
Dear Freak of the Week,
On Jan. 29, New York Times Opinion columnist and former attorney David French said the Supreme Court’s conduct has been “quite heartening” and that it has stayed “within its constitutional bounds” at a Rockefeller Center event.
On Jan. 30, Rep. Chris Pappas, D-N.H., criticized the Trump administration for its foreign policy decisions, immigration crackdown and cuts to federal funding for universities at a Rockefeller Center for Public Policy event.
When borders close, so do futures. The Trump administration’s latest round of travel and visa restrictions extend to 39 countries, many in Africa and the Middle East — a move that confuses national security with collective punishment, blocking thousands of qualified African students from life-changing educational opportunities. The government justified these restrictions with concerns about visa overstays, screening deficiencies and information-sharing gaps in foreign immigration systems. Yet, this fails to recognize the merit and circumstances of international scholarship students, including those from my home country of Zimbabwe. It misidentifies them as security threats rather than young people in pursuit of educational and career opportunities.
Since assuming office, President Donald Trump and his cabinet of curiosities have made it their mission to eliminate the government agencies that keep our nation afloat. One of the agencies caught in Trump’s crosshairs, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, has experienced mass layoffs, with 6,000 employees fired in 2025. The onslaught doesn’t stop there. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has recently outlined a plan to cut the agency in half, reducing on-call recovery staff by 41% and surge staffing by 85%.
The American Dream is the promise that this country is supposed to offer to every citizen. It is the promise of owning a home, obtaining a stable job and raising a family. However the reality is that the “American Dream” only works when there is an America that is on your side.
On March 23, a new course selection system called “Courses @ Dartmouth” will debut, according to a presentation made during a Dartmouth Student Government meeting on Sunday.
Since the start of the year, several academic initiatives have begun work on bringing Israeli scholars to campus. Dartmouth Kalaniyot has recently begun facilitating scientific research collaborations between the College and Israeli universities. Additionally, an anonymous donor is funding a new program that will bring visiting Israeli politics professors who are affiliated with Israeli universities to Dartmouth’s government department.
Access to paid family and medical leave remains uneven in New Hampshire, despite the introduction of the New Hampshire Paid Family and Medical Leave program in 2023, according to a recent paper by sociology professor Kristin Smith titled “The New Hampshire Voluntary Paid Family and Medical Leave Program: Did the program increase coverage?” Smith’s paper finds that less than 3% of New Hampshire’s workforce has joined the program. As policymakers continue to debate the future of paid leave in the Granite State, The Dartmouth sat down with Smith to discuss her findings, the barriers limiting participation in the program and what paid leave reform could look like moving forward.
