Even on election day, the campaign isn't over and local Al Gore, George W. Bush, and Ralph Nader supporters are still drumming up votes for their favorite candidates.
Hip-hop groups attempting to stay on the cutting edge will now have to work a little harder. Outkast's fourth offering, "Stankonia," has pushed today's limits that much further. More than a change in mentality, "Stankonia" is simply the next step in Outkast's evolution. Lesser known tracks off of "Aquemini," Outkast's third album, integrated futuristic ("Chonky Fire") and P-funk ("Synthesizer") techniques.
In a decade rife with Euro synth trash and cloying pop ballads, U2 invigorated the sound of the1980s with a majestic blend of passion, politics, and impeccable musicianship.
Like many Nader supporters, I have been pestered, harassed and generally made to feel like a traitor by many of my friends in the progressive movement. "Kelly," they ask, "why are you purposely choosing to waste your vote?" "Isn't a vote for Nader a vote for Bush?" Or, when they're feeling particularly colorful, "I hate you. We are no longer friends." I've taken more than a little such abuse this year -- most of it, oddly enough, during the past few weeks, as Gore's campaign has experienced what one might call a "technical difficulty" (i.e., Al Gore.) While I appreciate the concern shown by my fellow liberals, I'd like to take a moment to remind them that I'm NOT voting for the enemy, I'm voting for the only candidate who truly represents our views.
I am writing this opinion statement simply to make some suggestions on the upcoming presidential election. I am not trying to force anyone to think the way I do or to vote the way I do. I am simply trying to share some personal insight on the choice being made this Tuesday. To be up front and frank with you, this column is not meant for anyone intending to vote for George W. Bush. Instead, this is an opinion statement aimed at all Gore and Nader supporters.
They came anticipating Phi Beta Kappa honors and organized planners, intellectual discussions about Freud and Goethe and brisk morning jogs framed by New England scenery.
Nearly a year and a half after the Board of Trustees approved plans for a new department of genetics at Dartmouth Medical School, administrators continue to review a host of potential applicants to fill 12 targeted full-time positions.
Are the students offended by the fact that Vice President Al Gore has admitted to smoking marijuana in the 1960s? Or that Texas Governor George W. Bush was arrested for stealing a Christmas wreath at Yale as the head of a notoriously rowdy fraternity? Should these past actions make a difference in Tuesday's presidential election?
A game involving two top-10 teams. The winner will likely take home the conference title and stay alive for the national title. The loser will be all but eliminated from both. What more could FSU-Clemson need to make the game exciting?
The Dartmouth football team (1-6, 0-4) heads to Cornell (3-4, 3-1) this week for a worst-against-first Ivy League match-up. The Big Red are one of four teams tied atop the League standings while the Big Green own sole possession of the cellar.
Scott Blackmun '79 was named Chief Executive Officer of the United States Olympic Committee on Tuesday in replacement of Norm Blake, who resigned from the post last week. He was promoted to the position from within the USOC, where he had served as general counsel and senior managing director for sport resources.
The women's volleyball team thoroughly crushed the University of Vermont Wednesday night with a 3-0 victory over the 0-23 team. Nearly every Dartmouth player had the opportunity to play in the lop-sided pounding, which was the first shutout for the Big Green since Sept. 23.
It seems natural to college students to select their leaders based on the intelligence that they display. After all, we live in a world of tests and grades where the person who remembers the most or the person who interprets the most gets the grade. This seems to be the root of Vice President Gore's appeal. He got better grades at Harvard than the Governor of Texas did at Yale. He lived his life in government from the U.S. Army to the U.S. Senate, studying, analyzing and generally getting a better grip on the issues that face our world today. This man knows the best for America. He wrote big, thick policy books like "Earth in the Balance." Heck, he even knows why Governor Bush's tax cuts aren't a good idea. A person who knows more about his opponent's plans than his opponent has a natural right to be the president, right?
Restoring Equilibrium

Last January, I gave a harsh review to an upstart sitcom on Fox, boldly declaring that it's simply "not funny." That sitcom went on to become the biggest hit that Fox has seen since "The Simpsons."
