Eating Around the Upper Valley

(05/22/24 7:15am)

There’s a reason why we call Dartmouth a “bubble.” With many students lacking a car of their own on campus, it can be difficult to find a short reprieve from Hanover. Grabbing meals with friends can be an excellent way to de-stress — but while Foco is open seven days a week, and there are a handful of restaurants to choose from in Hanover, eating at the same spots year after year can get repetitive.

Conaway: I Am Going on Strike — and You Should Too

(05/21/24 8:10am)

On May 1, the Graduate Organized Laborers of Dartmouth-United Electrical Workers — the College’s graduate student union — began its strike for a fair contract. Now, many of us graduate students are wondering why or how we should participate. I’m writing to say that I am striking, and my fellow graduate students should too. The cost of attending Dartmouth’s graduate programs has spiraled out of control. In the last five years, we have experienced an 83% increase in rent without a sufficient change in pay. Graduate workers currently have no paid medical or disability leave. International students face the extra burdens of immigration fees and precarity due to their visa status. Parents are especially financially burdened by insufficient childcare support. These barriers mean that higher education at Dartmouth is only truly accessible to the privileged few. These issues must be resolved for the sake of our workers and the future of our programs.

Cooch: How Beilock Can Respond to Faculty Censure and Student No Confidence Votes

(05/21/24 8:05am)

More than 30% of Dartmouth’s undergraduate students have voted “no confidence” in College President Sian Leah Beilock, and now Dartmouth faculty voted yesterday to formally censure her. These events reflect campus concerns about the administration’s biased and punitive response toward pro-Palestinian campus advocacy since October 2023. The students’ vote and faculty censure should serve as an urgent call for alumni engagement.
