Editor's Note: This is the fifth in a multi-part series on the College's senior administration and the issues facing Dartmouth today and in the future.
The several dozen supporters of defeated Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry who met for a candlelight vigil on the Green at midnight Wednesday to mourn their candidate's defeat expected a low-key gathering -- not triumphant Republicans and the presence of Safety and Security.
In case you haven't noticed, Jude Law is in just about every movie this season.
On Friday night, while most of the '08 class was running their requisite laps around the oh-so-touchable bonfire, four of their classmates were asleep down at Yale University, resting up for the New England Freshman Championships. A finish in the top eight at Yale would earn the team a spot at the freshman Atlantic Coast Championships next weekend at Navy. And, since the Dartmouth sailors have already qualified for coed ACC's and women's ACC's, a bid at the freshman ACC's would nicely complement the team's domination of the eastern United States.
The Dartmouth women's tennis team dominated the A singles flight during the weekend's Big Green Invitational, occupying three of the four tournament semifinals slots and producing its first victor in four years. Jayme Ahmed '05, Margaret Fitchet '08 and Maggie Suydam '08 reached the event's final four, and Ahmed and Fitchet advanced to the finals, where the teammates were crowned co-champions.

Our ongoing culture war over marriage for gays and lesbians bears striking resemblances to America's culture war over interracial marriage (also known as miscegenation, or the mixing of races). Like all analogies, there are differences as well as similarities, but perhaps we have not pressed the analogy far enough. The entire history of miscegenation has valuable lessons to teach us today.
If teachers are considered role models by anyone, it is probably by their students. But Dartmouth's student government is trying to find professors who can serve as examples for another group altogether -- other faculty members.
At 2 a.m. Wednesday, many news anchors were still holding New Hampshire aside with Ohio, New Mexico and Iowa as "too close to call." It seemed as though the Granite State's four electoral votes might make the difference in the presidential race.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush claimed a re-election mandate Wednesday after a record 59 million Americans chose him over Democrat John Kerry and voted to expand Republican control of Congress as well. He pledged to pursue his agenda on taxes and Iraq while seeking "the broad support of all Americans."
Voices were both crying and cheering in the Dartmouth wilderness as Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry conceded to President Bush Wednesday. A sense of disillusionment on campus was hard to miss, with large numbers of Kerry supporters going as far as to organize a midnight vigil to grieve for their candidate's loss in the popular and electoral vote.
The Dartmouth equestrian team placed third out of nine total teams Saturday during a home show held at Morton Farm. The University of Vermont won and Mt. Ida placed second at the show. Dartmouth lost its overall season lead in the region with UVM pulling ahead by two points.
The Dartmouth men's water polo team finished second in the North Atlantic Division of the Collegiate Water Polo Association last weekend, completing its season with nine wins and two losses, both of which came at the hands of a much-improved Middlebury College squad.
After last Saturday's thrilling four-game upset over Yale, the Dartmouth women's volleyball team appeared primed to put a forgettable first half of the season behind it in its second trip through the Ivy League schedule.
Overprepared and ready.
Today, with any luck, the presidential election will be decided. To those who voted Tuesday -- wherever they voted and whomever they chose -- we offer our sincerest thanks. In an era in which many young people display only apathy about the future of the country, it is heartening to know that so many capable and talented Dartmouth students joined the throngs of American voters who cast their ballots.
The 20 members of the Class of 2005 with the highest cumulative grade point averages were inducted into Phi Beta Kappa honor society's Dartmouth chapter Tuesday evening.
Democratic and Republican party challengers questioned few students' right to vote at the polls at Hanover High School Tuesday, despite reports of 500 same-day registrations and widespread speculation that challenges would be common.
