The Dartmouth men's soccer squad (2-1-4 overall, 0-0-1 Ivy) battled the Princeton Tigers (4-2-2 overall, 0-0-1 Ivy) to a scoreless draw, in a contact-filled, defense-dominated double overtime thriller at Lourie-Love Field in New Jersey Saturday.
Hubris always has a price. The heavy burden of the Bush administration's quest for hegemony in the Middle East has taken its toll. The cost of maintaining our occupation of the desert nation of Iraq is estimated at well over $1 billion per week, a figure that can only be overshadowed by the human cost of this war; 13,000 Iraqi civilians and over 1,000 American soldiers have lost their lives so far. It has become clearer and clearer that the highest echelons of our government are plagued by a crisis of confidence, with their partisan blinders and ideological entrenchments serving to thicken the already dense fog of war.
It has become obvious that Dan Rather and his cabal at CBS News were participants in one of the greatest journalistic dupes in recent years. The question that remains is: How did this happen? I can think of two possible explanations -- one is unflattering, the other is worse. Either Rather and his staff are massively incompetent, or they were willing participants in a scheme of public deception -- pick your poison.

A somber crowd gathered to pay final respects to former Dartmouth President David Thomas McLaughlin '54 Monday in Rollins Chapel. Greeted by bagpipes and organist Christopher Lundell, friends, faculty and students joined McLaughlin's family for a memorial that celebrated his 54 years of dedication to the College.
Television just isn't a high priority for Dartmouth students these days. Network programming has become increasingly pathetic, and moreover, there's that pesky "not flunking out" issue that gets in the way. The 2004 fall season certainly isn't going to change anything; in fact, the schedule this year could be the worst in quite some time.

I viewed Thursday night's presidential debate in fine quarters: Dartmouth's Filene Auditorium. Stewarding the evening was Professor Andrew Samwick, director of the Rockefeller Center, and in attendance was noted blogger Andrew Sullivan. Also present was a cranky old woman who posited that Al Sharpton would do a better job as president than George Bush. Go figure. Not-so-sweet old ladies aside, it was an enjoyable debate.
As a hard-charging John Kerry finished his closing statements, George Bush knew he had been beat. Reality was closing in for the kill as Bush delivered his final tepid argument. For the first time in almost four years as the most politically insulated president in memory, Bush was without a clever soundbite, whispering adviser or damage-control wizard. Left to his own faculties, the president could do little more than visibly labor, belabor his scripted catch phrases and make failed metaphors about labor. Debating John Kerry, the president discovered, was truly "hard work."
