To the Editor:
Fairness is a non-issue in college admissions. The college admissions process is neither fair, nor can it be. Trying to structure admissions policy based on some determination of what is fair, as many have recently done with regards to early admissions programs, is misguided.
At first glance, one would think that Dartmouth would consider student parking to be a priority on campus. We do, after all, like to affectionately say that we are located in the middle of nowhere. For students who live in the New England area, it naturally makes sense to drive to and from campus. During my freshman year, commuting to and from campus meant having my father make the three-and-a-half-hour trip up I-91 to pick me up. After packing up the car, he would switch over to the passenger's seat and I would take the wheel and drive home. Largely due to the inconvenience of this commute, my parents allowed me to bring my own car up to campus when I became a sophomore, and I have had it up here ever since.
Researchers from the Dartmouth Medical School and the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center published their findings about lumbar fusion in the Nov. 1 edition of Spine, an international journal for the study of the spine. Within the article, the authors raise concerns about the recent rise of such procedures in the United States. According to the study, lumbar fusion rates have increased more than 250 percent over the past decade, with lumbar fusion now accounting for almost 50 percent of all back surgery performed in the U.S. However, the authors of the study say that there is no way of knowing if the increase is warranted, as there is no scientific or clinical evidence proving that lumbar fusion is effective. The rate of surgery varies regionally, with some areas performing surgeries at a rate of 20 times greater than other areas. These discrepancies can be attributed to "lack of scientific evidence, financial incentives and disincentives to surgical intervention, and difference in clinical training and professional opinion," Weinstein said.

Gross has been making jewelry with stones since 1969, when he first began working in Dartmouth's jewelry studio as an undergraduate. Though he initially entered the student workshop on a whim, Gross soon discovered a passion for working with stones. He noted that such spontaneity often gives way to a lifelong love for art. Visiting the student workshops can be a great way for students to "discover something about themselves that they didn't know was there."
