If the research presented in one senior's sociology thesis is any indication, a good portion of white students at Dartmouth may hold largely uninformed and perhaps problematic views on race.
The Sixth United States Circuit Court of Appeals narrowly upheld the use of affirmative action in the University of Michigan Law School's admissions process on May 14, bolstering legal support for institutions like Dartmouth that consider race in admissions and faculty recruitment.
Editor's Note: This is the second of two articles exploring the cost structure of off-campus study programs at Dartmouth. Today's story examines cost-of-living charges.
Hanover, with its quaint shops and historic homes, may appear to be a typical New England town, except for one difference -- it revolves around a world-renowned Ivy League college. Dartmouth's presence has created a community that is an anomaly within the Upper Valley, with a much higher average income, education level and property value than surrounding towns.
The 2001-2002 Student Assembly concluded a successful year last night, recognizing members and presenting awards as next year's Assembly, to be headed by Janos Marton '04, continues to take shape.
A judge today sentenced Robert Tulloch to 15 to 30 years in prison for murder conspiracy in the deaths of Half and Susanne Zantop. The Vermont teen is already serving two life sentences without parole for the murders of the Dartmouth professors.
Hours upon hours of work. Weeks of sweat and pain. Zealous months of dedication. An entire year's effort for one show.
A soft sound is heard, followed by a louder one and then silence. The audience stares at the stage as the lights dim. The music commences once again, while the arena fills with anticipation and the audience is brought to another world as strobe lights, backdrops and an abundance of energy create a convincing ambiance. The dancers enter the stage, donning similar outfits and boasting incredible dancing moves. In a word: Sheba.

Not so long ago, Gary Weissman '02, a Jewish friend, voiced his concern to me regarding the camp mentality that tends to prevail in our respective communities when it comes to the Israeli-Palestinian situation. Hearing him speak made me realize that he was voicing my own concerns. Our groups do have a tendency to put disproportionate emphasis on one set of issues -- the issues that have a more direct bearing on how we define our own identities and community values. This is natural. However, in the interest of building bridges, this tendency should be challenged. Mobilizing around labels such as pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian, regardless of the noble ideals that are claimed to lie behind such labels, may polarize communities that need not be polarized and preclude forms of discussion that need not be precluded.
It took me two years to find it, hidden away on the corner of West and Maple. It took me two years of aimless searching, dissatisfaction and complaining to walk up the stairs and onto the porch of Dartmouth's best little secret: Foley House. Listed as just another affinity house (with "cooperative living" as its theme), Foley can be easily missed, overlooked or ignored. But it may be the best thing at Dartmouth.
Okay, it's the last time you'll have your column run in a college paper. This is your exit, man. What do you write about? Do you cast tearful goodbyes at your faithful readers? Do you get in one last, useless dig at the Greek system? Do you take the opportunity to curse out those who trod on you along the way?
It is not a coincidence that so many people experience a childhood urge to climb -- to grip and follow the rough bark of a tree that guides one gracefully off the ground. John Joline '70, climbing gym manager, instructor and climbing partner to any interested student at Dartmouth, still holds that connection to nature so often lost in the concrete groundings of our world. The grace he shows in vertical motion reminds one of video clips of chimpanzees riding up trunks and branches -- a natural poise accounted for in evolutionary traits that, as Joline said, could be "deeply embedded in the central nervous system, therefore probably resonates with some very deep instinctual drives."
Institutions of higher learning across the country saw applications from international students rise this year, defying predictions by some that Sept. 11 might discourage foreigners from applying to American colleges and universities.
College administrators are mulling possible uses for the mostly-vacant North Fairbanks Hall, and among the suggestions is a new student dance club.
