The Board of Trustees will convene at the College at the end of this week and throughout the weekend for the first time since their surprise announcement in February of the five principles for social and residential change, and indications are the initiative is on the Trustees' agenda.
More than two months after the Board of Trustees announced a revolutionary social and residential life initiative that threatens to end the Greek system "as we know it," an emotionally charged Student Assembly meeting last night ended with the passage of a highly controversial resolution opposing any major alterations to the Coed Fraternity Sorority system, such as co-education or abolition, without the consent of the CFS Council.

For an unknown reason the students of Dartmouth College have decided that they are not important and that they cannot make a difference. We have resigned ourselves to apathy and inaction. We were presented with a choice last term: create our own social system or let the Trustees and the administration (henceforth referred to as "the system" because I think that's funny). Some of us have been inactive in the hope that they will choose what we think they're going to choose, and I guess the rest of us have decided to be inactive in the hope that they won't choose what we think they're going to choose (the logic is astounding). Do we care that little how we live our lives, that we leave this kind of decision in the hands of bunch of middle aged WASPs? (no offense intended, just aiming for shock value)
No one would run for Student Assembly President who didn't love Dartmouth. But no one would run for Student Assembly President who loved all the things about Dartmouth. I know Dartmouth well enough to see its flaws. I love Dartmouth enough to be committed to addressing these flaws and making Dartmouth better.
Dean of the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration Paul Danos accepted his reappointment at the College for another four years yesterday.
Another case of an anonymous offensive mailing was discovered yesterday afternoon in the Hinman Box of the Students for a Free Tibet organization. The anti-Buddhist pamphlet was designed in the same, cartoon strip-style as the other mailings sent earlier this term and depicted a philanthropic Buddhist tycoon sent to hell for not believing in Jesus.
The activist atmosphere on campus created by the Trustees' controversial social life initiative has had several far reaching effects -- including the cancellation of all Winter Carnival parties and the delay of a decision on door locks -- but one area which has yet to see that influence is Student Assembly elections.
In a forum colored by buffoonery, a staged assassination attempt and the announcement of a Greek write-in candidate to the presidential race, a scattered crowd watched as Student Assembly candidates for president and vice-president delivered their election platform in Collis Commonground last night.
We do not know where we will be living next year. As '02s with somewhat less than stellar random housing numbers, we prefer not to think about how many hours we'll be spending walking back and forth to the river. But please note: we have accepted this fate with dignity and grace. We did not choose to apply for our only opportunity at dorm luxury: the East Wheelock cluster. We are repulsed by the new application procedure to this cluster. No, we wrote no essays, made no lists of extracurricular activities. We're committed to having a random computer assign us housing, not an administrator who gets to decide whether a ski team member or a Big Brother-Big Sister volunteer will better contribute to the East Wheelock community.
I don't claim to have all the answers. But I do have a vision. Before I decided to run, I started to think about why I came to Dartmouth. More than the professors, the classes, or the scenic campus, I came to Dartmouth because of the people -- because of you. The reality has been that the people at Dartmouth have been even more amazing than I expected. We are so diverse, so talented, and have had such incredible life experiences. Too often we forget this. But think for a second about some of the remarkable people you have met. Think about your own accomplishments. When we leave this school, I hope that we have had as many opportunities as possible to have shared these experiences with each other.
