A recent poll conducted by The Dartmouth indicates that the College's faculty and students lean left of the nation as a whole. Former Vermont governor Howard Dean emerged as the frontrunner in a question about a hypothetical presidential election, and President Bush also received strikingly low approval ratings from Dartmouth faculty and students alike.
White cloth completely covers one of the principal objects on display in the Hood Museum of Art's current exhibition, "A Point of View: Africa on Display." The work is not concealed because it is undergoing maintenance, though, or for any of the reasons that one might immediately imagine: rather, the mask is being covered up because religious taboos forbid it to be seen in the African country where it was made.
"Mystic River" is easily Clint Eastwood's finest work since he released his seminal anti-Western "Unforgiven" 11 years ago. Once again, he takes a genre that has been done countless times before (the whodunit, in this case) and turns it on its head to create something of startling depth that goes well beyond the genre's conventions. It's hard to imagine how anyone could have watched "Unforgiven" and still doubted Eastwood's place behind a camera. However, if these skeptics do exist, then "Mystic River" will be the film to silence these critics once and for all.
To the Editor:
The comments made last week by Mahathir Mohamad, Malaysia's Prime Minister, had striking resemblance to those made in Nuremberg during the '30s. He told leaders of the Muslim world that "Jews rules the world by proxy," and that the Muslim world, more than a billion strong, must not be defeated by "a few million Jews." Mohamad continued with his hate-filled rhetoric, claiming that Jews get others to fight and die for them. In fact, he attributed the bulk of global revolutionary thought to the Jews, stating, "They survived 2,000 years of pogroms not by hitting back, but by thinking. They invented and successfully promoted Socialism, Communism, human rights and democracy so that persecuting them would appear to be wrong, so they may enjoy equal rights with others. With these, they have now gained control of the most powerful countries and they, this tiny community, have become a world power. We cannot fight them through brawn alone. We must use our brains also."
For the second year in a row, a group of Dartmouth students and staff members traveled to Eastern Europe to restore a Jewish cemetery that had been desecrated roughly 60 years ago.

Big jewels, bags of silver and gold and a gang of bandits are exactly what the film "El Automovil Gris" delivered over the weekend at Loew Auditorium. Mixing elements of American, Mexican and Japanese cultures, the film was rather difficult to get a grasp on.

Pinch me, please. Someone tell me that this surreal nightmare is just that -- only a nightmare and nothing more. Someone tell me that the Cubs did not blow a 3-1 series lead. Tell me that Mark Prior and Kerry Wood -- arguably the best pitching duo in baseball -- did not lose back-to-back games that if won, would have sent the Cubs to their first World Series in the post-World War II era.
Before you come to college, everyone tells you that the next four years will the best four years of your life. I never quite knew what to make of this statement. It always sounded too good to be true. Can college really be a never-ending sequence of ups and downs that will change you forever? Will it really be the place that will shape your opinions and help transform you into an adult? Can college really be everything it's promised to be or will you, at the end of four years, be horribly disappointed? These were some of the questions I had before I came to Dartmouth two years ago. But let me tell you from my experience, that college has been everything it was promised to be and so much more.
