A Different Kind of Love: Celebrating Galentine’s Day
(02/12/25 8:10am)
Valentine’s Day is a mixed bag of a holiday. For some, it’s a fun excuse to celebrate their romantic partners, but for others, it may elicit negative feelings. While the holiday traditionally focuses on romantic love, that’s not the only form one can celebrate. “Galentine’s Day” — a holiday focused on women’s friendship — has made February a month for celebrating more than just significant others.
Dear Mirror: Seeking Love at Dartmouth?
(02/12/25 8:15am)
In the leadup to Valentine’s Day, we asked Dartmouth students to submit their burning questions about love, breakups and everything in between. We chose our favorite questions — some serious, some perhaps less so — and answered them below. While many of our answers offer our genuine, best advice for dealing with matters of the heart, others are more flippant — cheeky, if you will. Above all, keep in mind that we are college sophomores, not relationship counselors. We’ll let our readers decide whether to heed our advice.

Moyse: A Manifesto for the Middle Class
(02/11/25 9:00am)
America’s middle class, the heart and soul of the nation, is hurting. There are a litany of statistics that illustrate as much. The top 10% of earners in the United States own more than two-thirds of the nation’s total wealth, while the bottom 50% own about 2.5% of it. Nearly half of Americans say they’re living paycheck to paycheck. In general, Americans have really soured on the economy. The only thing as upsetting as these statistics is the utterly pathetic unresponsiveness of American politicians and elites, who are supposed to help solve this problem.

Q&A with government professor Jennifer Lind post-Senate testimony

On Jan. 30, government professor Jennifer Lind testified in front of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in a hearing titled “The Malign Influence of the People’s Republic of China at Home and Abroad: Recommendations for Policy Makers.” During the hearing, Lind, who specializes in United States-China relations, spoke about China’s foreign influence, both malign and mundane. The Dartmouth sat down with Lind to discuss her first time experience testifying in front of the committee and how she believes the United States should use lessons from great power politics — competition between sovereign states with significant economic and military strength — to respond to China’s growing influence on U.S. citizens.
Editor’s Note
(02/05/25 8:00am)
Winter Carnival has crept up on us, and we are once again reminded that gone are the days of the Psi Upsilon keg-jumping contest, Winter Carnival Queen and towering snow sculptures. Though these traditions have since passed us by, I know many students who still carry with them an idealized image of what the weekend should hold, referential and nostalgic for a past they, or even some of their parents who went to Dartmouth, never experienced.
Fast-Tracking the Future: Students Reflect on Graduating Early
(02/05/25 8:10am)
The broad contours of most students’ D-Plans are similar. According to the Undergraduate Deans Office website, students must spend 12 terms on campus, usually taking three classes per term. This allows them to take three leave terms and finish their degree four years after they matriculate, hopefully a little wiser and ready to go out into the world. Some students, though, have other plans and petition to graduate a term early, during the winter of their senior year. While these students often still walk with their class in June, they apply for their degree in the winter and do not take classes their senior spring.
Reflection: SAD (Sick at Dartmouth)
(02/05/25 8:15am)
When I was first struck down with illness during week six of my freshman fall, I honestly felt a little bit of joy. According to Dick’s House, I had a nebulous ailment — either the flu, cold or some unknown virus. I felt like a pile of bricks, but it forced me to take a break from my grueling schedule of: class, activity, meal, exercise, rinse and repeat.
Hanover’s Hot Topic: The Cold Regions Research and Engineering Lab
(02/05/25 8:05am)
The Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory, known more commonly as CRREL, sits unassuming only about two miles north of campus. I, for one, have passed it frequently on drives up to Lyme or the Skiway — but had yet to fully understand the story behind the military laboratory that works to solve “strategically important problems … in cold and complex regions.” That is, until I spoke to the Dartmouth professors and students who research there.
Finding Queer Community in Mainstream Greek Life
(02/19/25 8:20am)
As a queer person, I had concerns about fitting into Dartmouth’s historically heteronormative social spaces. When you think of stereotypical Greek life, “inclusive” is not exactly the first word that comes to mind.
