Soggy weather and a brisk temperature of 50 degrees over the weekend didn't turn revelers away from Green Key festivities, as a rising number of inebriates stopped by Safety and Security indicates.
Student support was mixed for the decision of the Voces Clamantium to invite guest speaker Yvette Schneider, an activist identifying herself as a former lesbian who turned away from her homosexual lifestyle after becoming Christian, to speak on campus tomorrow.
Let's face it. The process of film editing is not something that usually causes a surge of excitement in the hearts of young film hopefuls. If you were to poll the Film Studies majors about what career they see themselves in, "editor" comes up about as often as "best boy grip."
Green Key: a weekend steeped in tradition. Nothing else at Dartmouth is as steeped in tradition as Green Key. Many things are steeped in tradition at Dartmouth, but try as we might, we cannot tradition-steep them even to the same order of steepitude as is steeped the fair weekend of Green Key.
Once upon a time, in a collegial kingdom far removed from our space and epoch, there lived a young vassal named Jeff, who wrote columns for the local newspaper. (He had to write them on parchment with a quill, of course.) One day his editor, the Good Queen Op-Ed, said to him, "Prithee, Jeff, wilt thou write on th'eminent subject of Green Key?"
The thing I like most about big weekends, especially Green Key, is that everyone seems to be having fun. On any other weekend, parties can get kind of lame, work can pile up, stress can drag you down, but on Green Key, all of that is forgotten and the entire school focuses on having a good time.
If asked, most informed Dartmouth students will usually cite this approaching weekend as their favorite. Personally, I tend to waver back and forth between Green Key and Winter Carnival, but that's mostly because I have the unique privelege of risking life, limb and teeth while participating in the keg-jump. Nevertheless, few people would dispute Green Key's transcendence in the pantheon of Dartmouth weekends.
Gone are the days of men vacating their fraternity houses for their dates, the chaperones, the masses of women hailing from surrounding women's colleges and the formal dances. The passing years have brought significant changes to the kind of fun had at the big party weekends such as Green Key.
Although incidents at recent Green Key Weekends have been kept to a minimum, Safety and Security and the Hanover Police are taking the usual precautions to make sure everything goes smoothly during this weekend's festivities.
The Simpsons are "drinking like a Dartmouth boy." Zack Siler ponders his Dartmouth acceptance, hiding it from his alumni father in "She's All That." Sweet, adorable, love-smitten protagonist Preston "Can't Hardly Wait" to graduate, date Jennifer Love-Hewitt and go on to Dartmouth.
In the beginning...The idea for a special, all-campus party to celebrate spring originated in 1899 after a particularly long winter.
Many actors wait tables, before they get their big break, to supplement the often meager earnings of the theater. But how many movie stars can say they waited tables at the Hanover Inn?
Odd that here in the Valley on the cutting edge of rustic modernization there is no hopping club scene, nor any sawdust and honky-tonk Cowpoke bars. We find ourselves with a singular focus each Friday and Saturday night. In the absence of NASCAR or good strip-clubs, what else is the bucolic college student to do? Cow-tipping loses its flair quickly, and all of the roadside signs have already been peppered by the buckshot of a townie who was thinking just a little faster than you that "goin' a-shootin'" might be a wholesome, fun-filled way to clear the stress after a long day at Wal-Mart.
Do you remember those welcoming students, wearing green shirts and khaki pants, who ushered you into the College president's house during freshmen orientation?
More so than any of the College's other big weekends, Green Key brings to mind infamous comparisons to the movie "Animal House." Created by Chris Miller '63 -- who was known as "Pinto" to his Alpha Delta fraternity brothers -- the movie was inspired by Miller's own Green Key experiences as a brother at AD to celebrate the mindless fun and incredible debauchery of those days.
Forget about the changes to the Greek system and all-freshman housing for the weekend because, if you think about it, what are you going to remember in five years? ten years? fifty years?
The Dartmouth World Music Percussion Ensemble, led by Hafiz Shabazz, will perform tonight in Spaulding Auditorium.
When I was very little, I would sprint home from the bus on the corner and rush inside to finish up my homework before heading out to play. Eventually, I would head in for dinner at my mother's beckon, but I was always ready to go out afterwards to tackle the ankle-biting mosquitoes and the impending darkness.
Though the academic year may be winding down for Dartmouth, the sailing team still has farther to go before they head home for the summer. The squad has qualified for three different Intercollegiate Yacht Racing Association national championships, which is a testament to the team's depth.
The Dartmouth women's varsity eight crew learned Tuesday evening that it came up two inches short of competing at this year's NCAA Championship, May 26-28 in Camden, N.J.
