There has been a lot of debate in The Dartmouth this term about social class and the best ways to spend your time at Dartmouth. While a lot of angles have been debated, I think there have been some sides of the issue that have been skirted.
Last week I received a perfectly typed copy of my college transcript. I laughed when I saw the seal on my transcript. It looked so official, so crisp. I was almost afraid to touch it. I decided to skim the transcript checking over my courses and my past grades. Soon I became excited as I looked at my grades, for there were As and A-s and several B+s. I had forgotten that I had done so well my first few terms here.

In the past week, triggered by Abiola Lapite's column "Inequality of Wealth is a Force for Good" [Oct. 22], a steaming debate has taken place in the op-ed pages of The Dartmouth concerning the enlarging U.S. income distribution. So far, the pages have been overwhelmed by opinions favoring government intervention to correct this disturbing trend.
