As reported by this paper on Oct. 1, one year has passed since the College instituted its new Advanced Placement credit policy. Departing from its established practice, Dartmouth announced it would no longer grant credit for qualifying scores on AP exams taken in high school. The justification provided by administrators centered on maintaining standards of academic rigor throughout students’ four years in Hanover — high levels of achievement on standardized tests would apparently allow a significant number of students to circumvent the rigorous scholastic standards the College professes to uphold. This policy, keeping in character with a frighteningly large number of policy decisions made by the College in recent years, is misguided and should be reversed.

The Umpqua Community College massacre in Oregon marks the 32nd mass shooting incident since the beginning of the 2015 in which at least four people died. On average, one such shooting has happened every nine days. After adding incidents in which at least four people were shot, but not necessarily killed, the number rockets to at least the 294th shooting — on average more than one incident per day. Given that trends do not change overnight, there will likely be another shooting tomorrow. So the question is — will we do anything to stop that?

After winning its Ivy League opener at Harvard University (6-7, 2-1 Ivy) last Friday, the women’s volleyball team split its pair of home games this weekend. Dartmouth (5-7, 2-1 Ivy) kicked off the weekend with a straight-sets loss against the University of Pennsylvania (8-7, 2-1 Ivy), but bounced back with a 3-1 win in its next match against Princeton University (5-7, 0-3 Ivy). The Big Green now sits in a four-way tie for second place among the Ancient Eight.

A lot of things have happened since Angel Haze last released a full-length album in 2013. In the past two years, Haze has publicly come out as agender and left the record label that helped them put out their last album, “Dirty Gold” (2013).
The break from the record label is evident in Haze’s new album “Back to the Woods” (2015). “Dirty Gold” was polished and surprisingly pop-heavy for an artist who originally rose to fame on the strength of songs such as “Werkin Girls.” It was very much the studio’s album whereas this new effort is quite clearly guided and shaped by Haze. The beats are darker, and the lyrics are more emotionally honest than ever. Many of the feel-good platitudes and hooks from “Dirty Gold” are inverted or eschewed.

As a member of the ’18 class, this past week or so has been eventful. Even for those with no connection to the Greek system, there was undoubtedly a shift in the campus climate — groups of men and women dressed up and running the convoluted gauntlet of rush.

With many members of the Class of 2016 searching for full-time jobs, the Center for Professional Development is aiding the search with its yearly formal recruiting process, a career fair and advising events to help students. Following positive responses from students last year, the career fair again featured a “service and education” room and a “startup and tech” room.

On Thursday, Oct. 1, a gunman opened fire at Umpqua Community College — a small school in Roseburg, Oregon — and killed nine people. Counting the shooter, who died by suicide, the death tally totaled 10 by the day’s end. “Let me be very clear, I will not name the shooter,” replied Sheriff John Hanlin, whose force was responsible for answering the shooting spree. “I will not give him the credit he probably sought prior to this horrific and cowardly act.” This was the correct response — in the face of tragedy, we should remember the victims instead of the murderer, and understand how these catastrophes affect us both as a nation and as individual people.

The quintessential Dartmouth student has a double major in economics and geography or some such eclectic combination, partakes in an intense club sport — if he or she are not already a varsity athlete — and nonchalantly receives hundreds of likes on improbably “candid” Facebook profile pictures of themselves at their Greek house’s formal, all the while not neglecting to call their parents once a week. On a campus where “A-side” and “B-side” adopt an overtone more sinister than their original reference to the two surfaces of a music recording, we often feel pressured to jump on the bandwagon for myriad pursuits without giving due consideration to alternatives.

The men’s soccer team started off their Ivy League slate this season with a gritty 1-0 win against Princeton University (3-4-1, 0-1-0 Ivy), who shared the Ivy title with the Big Green (4-3-1, 1-0-0 Ivy) last season.

With “Gravity” (2013) and “Interstellar” (2014) firmly dominating the epic extraterrestrial disaster genre, it is a suicide mission to enter their orbit for fear of entering that black hole of comparison. Director Ridley Scott takes on this challenge with his “The Martian” (2015), based on Andy Weir’s eponymous 2011 novel and crafts a light-hearted thrill-ride with enough pace and levity to escape the genre’s event horizon.
