Dartmouth may have a vast collection of employees devoted to making sure the institution runs smoothly, but when it comes to out-of-the-ordinary operations, it is reliant on one bureau: the Office of Special Events and Conferences. But for all the major programs that it runs both during the year and in the summertime, the office, which is hidden quietly away in Blunt Alumni Center, prefers to present itself as a service-oriented organization rather than a money-maker or image-booster for the College.

With the announcement of the Major League Baseball's All-Star Game rosters, America's true favorite pastime -- second-guessing the selections -- can begin in earnest.

Harvard hates America." That's the title of a book that came out about two decades ago to describe how the academic elites of the Ivy League had turned against this country and its system of values. There is, in the American heartland, a widespread feeling that students at colleges like Harvard, or Dartmouth for that matter, are stuck in an elitist, ivory tower marked by strong anti-American sentiment.

This is the story and the history that is closest to the hearts of their fathers and mothers, and of their grandfathers' grandfathers. As with all wars, the conflict in Israel is historically based; what sets it apart is the willingness of those fighting to see and envision the historical roots of the conflict. Yet it cannot be forgotten that it remains a contemporary conflict, enveloping people's lives right now.

It's an embarrassing mix of anger, humility and frustration. It's a situation we Dartmouth students experience countless times during our interims and off terms. It's the feeling you get when you say: "I go to Dartmouth," and are met only with a perplexed look; the clueless response of "Huh? What's that?"
The United States reserves the right to use military force against Iran," says Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz.
