The Right Reasons
Last winter, I interviewed five of the nuns I had known throughout my years of Catholic schooling for a class project. When I asked one about the idea of female priests, she said, "It's a social issue and there is no argument I can understand which would convince me that women should not be priests.

Daily Debriefing
Student Assembly is currently working to create an updated version of the student survey used before last year's budget cuts, Student Body President Frances Vernon '10 said at Tuesday night's Assembly meeting. The survey is intended to help the College as it seeks to outline budget cuts in the wake of this weekend's announced target for budget reduction. "We will hopefully be able to make recommendations as to what is essential to keep, what can be cut, and what should be restructured," Rebecca Hellerman, spokesperson for Student Assembly, told The Dartmouth. Hellerman said she believed College administrators were "receptive" to the results of last year's survey, citing the negative student body response to Lone Pine Tavern and its subsequent closing. Student Assembly will finish updating the survey within the next few weeks, Hellerman said.

Cancer center becomes patients' ‘second home'
Walking into the lobby of the Norris Cotton Cancer Center, where patients awaiting treatment flip idly through current issues of "House and Garden" and "Conde Nast Traveler," seemingly ignoring the support group pamphlets that also litter the reception area tables, it might be easy to miss the signs of disease that are ubiquitous here.
