"We played well," head coach Rich Parker said. "The course was really in good condition this year, the best condition it's ever been in my nine years."
"It felt good to win by more than one goal," midfielder Emma Brush '13 said. "I feel like we won decisively and that gives us confidence going forward."
Last week, Irish singer Sinead O'Connor penned an open letter to Miley Cyrus, advising her not to let the music industry "pimp" her for profit and attention. While O'Connor's letter may have been written with the best of intentions, the philosophy behind her advice to Cyrus is troubling. The idea that women must police their bodies, expressions and behaviors so as not to present temptation to men is deeply oppressive and rooted in a patriarchal paradigm that views women as objects and men as slaves to their basest desires. The parallel belief that men cannot help but objectify women who fail to conduct themselves with the utmost decorum sets a disappointingly low bar for appropriate male behavior.
Dartmouth has a lot of problems. The ongoing tensions borne of the multiple clashing perspectives that make up our campus have been extensively chronicled in this very paper, discussed at length during myriad forums, committees and meetings over the past several years and, most recently, featured prominently in The New York Times. The expression "Dartmouth has a problem" has been uttered with such regularity that it has taken on a meaning of its own stripped of its initial significance to become an entirely new entity, a string of empty words or a meme.
When you think of the term “space archaeology,” extraterrestrial life forms and the environments of other planets may come to mind. However, space archaeology is actually a much more grounded field focused on satellite imaging to create a realistic picture of how humans lived in ancient times, how the environment changed and how it continued to change.

After spending years helping people recover from sexual violence as a clinical psychologist, Jennifer Messina '93 returned to campus in 2011 to help create the Dartmouth Bystander Initiative. The program, created specifically for Dartmouth students, aims to reduce sexual assault by teaching individuals to be proactive in prevention.
He shared his concept of "hauntology," the study of personal stories that are part of the more intimate life of medicine rather than its rational practices, and spoke about the need for the emerging field of medical humanities.
Safety and Security introduced follow-up alerts this term at the suggestion of Dean of the College Charlotte Johnson, providing campus with additional information when available, the department's response to incidents and calls for tips.
While campus has been largely uninterrupted by the recent government shutdown, the standstill has temporarily halted the Education Department's Title IX investigation into Dartmouth's sexual assault policies.
While Title IX ensures that male and female athletes have equal funding, access to facilities and opportunities to play, the law is powerless against influencing people's preferences. Whether it is attending games, watching teams on television or buying a specific player's gear, Americans disproportionately tend to support male athletes and teams over their female counterparts.
The Big Green women finished the weekend with a record of 17-6 in singles and 6-6 in doubles. Katherine Yau '16, Taylor Ng '17 and Jacqueline Crawford '17 went undefeated in singles, and Ng tallied a double bagel along the way, defeating University of Pennsylvania freshman Luba Vazhenina 6-0, 6-0.
Last week I received an unusually thick envelope in the mail. Curiosity quickly turned into sour dismay as I fished out a small, laminated plastic card from the jam of papers inside. It was my insurance card for the Dartmouth Student Group Health Plan. Knowing that I already had my own insurance plan, that card, supposedly a symbol of health and security, represented no gain to me, but rather, it stood for $2,000: sunk. And knowing that I was doomed to some amount of time and paperwork to try to recover a fraction of that amount, I must've looked a bit pained, now burdened and marginally more thrifty, but not by choice.
Plans for a doctoral program funded by a $17 million donation from JPMorgan Chase at the University of Delaware raised some concerns among the university's faculty, Inside Higher Ed reported. The program would offer a doctorate in "financial services analytics," the report said. The company's donation would finance needed renovations, scholarships and faculty paychecks. Faculty worry, however, that this collaboration with the multinational bank will damage opportunities with other employers for Delaware students. There is also concern that JPMorgan will be able to decide which faculty members oversee the program and may influence students' dissertations, though administrators maintain that the company would not have a decision making role. Despite these concerns, the university is under pressure to compensate for diminishing state support and consider the role of donors in such decisions.
