The Joe Paterno scandal at Pennsylvania State University wherein the beloved football coach with the most wins in NCAA history did far less than enough to address child rape committed by his defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky represents much of what is wrong with the state of college athletics and offers an opportunity to reflect on a system that has distorted our values.

I like Dartmouth. Actually, I love it. My friends are incredible, my professors and classes are unbelievably fascinating and this gorgeous New Hampshire setting is inspiring. What I probably like most about Dartmouth is the College's potential. We are constantly told that we students are the driving force in changing the College for the better or for the worse. That responsibility, while somewhat daunting, is also exhilarating. The constant, and lovely, barrage of blitzes about student events, speakers, performances and everything of that ilk is just astonishing people on this campus are so involved, intelligent, passionate and committed. We constantly take steps toward becoming a better school. I love that.
