Faculty donations skew to Democratic candidates
As the College prepares for an influx of political attention during next year’s presidential election season, professors will face personal decisions about which, if any, of the candidates to support in a crowded field.
With the exception of the 2010 and 2012 election cycles, College professors have historically donated more to Democratic candidates than Republicans.
Women's and gender studies program adds “sexuality” to its name
With the start of fall classes, the first women’s, gender and sexuality studies courses are being offered after the program changed its name from women’s and gender studies in July.
Jeon: Overhandled with Care
The impetus for my penning this column originates in The Atlantic’s Sept. 2015 article, “The Coddling of the American Mind.” The piece analyzes what the authors perceive as an unspoken movement spreading across the nation’s college campuses to efface any words and actions that might offend even a minuscule portion of students. The piece highlights microaggressions and trigger warnings as manifestations of the movement, instances where exposure to speech or content might offend or upset a student. The author attributes these buzzwords to a culture of “vindictive protectiveness” that shields undergraduates from potential psychological distress.
Lu: Celebrate the Trump Effect
Maybe you are reading this column in the hopes that someone is finally defending your favorite presidential candidate. Maybe you’re lingering on this page because you are outraged that someone would try to defend Donald Trump’s political positions. This is not that column.
Student Spotlight: Adenrele Adewusi ’15
When Adenrele Adewusi ’15 stepped onto campus her freshman fall, she felt that she only saw three academic options for students — “pre-med, pre-law and pre-Wall Street.” Adewusi went with the third option, and she planned to leave the College with a degree in mathematics.
Women’s golf places fourth, Calbi ’19 earns second in invitational
Led by an exciting second-place overall performance from Julia Calbi ’19, the women’s golf team opened its 2015-2016 season with a solid fourth-place finish among the field of 11 teams at the Chesapeake Bay Invitational on the par-72 United States Naval Academy golf course. Despite not having a single golfer finish in the top five individuals, the University of Pennsylvania won the event on the strength of a tournament-low 301 second-round score and a 61-over-par finish on the weekend.
Women’s rugby gets first victory of inagural varsity season
At its inaugural game as a varsity program, the women’s rugby team ushered in a new era with a 77-5 win against the University of Pennsylvania on Sept. 13 at Brophy Field. This immediate success was followed by a tough loss against Quinnipiac University last Saturday, 5-43.
Trips We Wish Existed
Wilderness Pong I For the true beginner, this version of pong – played on wide, fresh-hewn oaken tables in the Second College Grant – teaches only the basics of Dartmouth’s distinctive version of pong. It’s not for experts, and trip leaders need to go easy on the poor freshmen, but ultimately these students will come back to the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge with a firm grasp of the essentials of pong. That said, they’ll be just as mercilessly mocked as the students who took Hiking I. Wilderness Pong II This is a real conundrum — it’s a massive level up from Wilderness Pong I, but still not hard enough for students who take Wilderness Pong III. Trippees will scale a medium-sized mountain, saw down trees, erect a pong table of exactingly applied dimensions and proceed to play the sport of (drunk) kings as the wind rustles their faces upon the hillside. Wilderness Pong III For the true expert in Wilderness Pong, this trip section – offered only rarely, as few freshmen are qualified – involves a strenuous hike up Mount Washington in the dead of night, followed by the sawing down of numerous trees, the construction of an exact replica of a Dartmouth fraternity or sorority — a different house each year — and the casting in gold of the One Pong Table to rule them all. After engaging in a full week of strenuous, back-breaking pong, the freshmen of Wilderness Pong III and their trip leaders will descend from the peak of Mount Washington and hike all the way to the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge, where they will proceed to play pong across the backs of other freshmen while onlookers dance the Salty Dog Rag. Beat Boxing While this trip is actually held in Spaulding Auditorium and involves absolutely no wilderness component, it is a valuable skill that will help to train the future supporting members of Dartmouth’s a cappella groups – and also the really irritating people at dorm parties. Sun God-ing In this trip, first-year students design, build and decorate a set of outdated cars in accordance with a Dartmouth-specific theme. Next, they will outfit them with ridiculously high-powered speakers and drive around northern New England playing music, film soundtracks and political commentary at high volume.
Chews Wisely: Tuk Tuk Thai Cuisine
After about a 15-minute wait, I got a table in the back corner. The atmosphere was vibrant and the décor festive, although the place does feel somewhat cramped.
QUIZ: Which Writing 5 Speaks to Your Soul?
Once upon a time, incoming students had the opportunity to test out of Writing 5. Like the days of hard alcohol or Three Guys BBQ's southwest poutine, however, the chance to escape 10 weeks of "Style: The Basics of Clarity and Grace" has been stolen from us.
Attention 19s: 8 Dining Hall Rules No One Told You
It’s okay to save seats and claim tables, but what you use as your placeholder matters. Your ID, backpack and coat are acceptable options. Clustering the napkins and salt and pepper shakers to the center of the table does not constitute a table saved. You have 0.053 seconds to place your order at Novack before all hell breaks loose. In other words, order at the rate of this dodgeball or prepare to be hit in the face with the words “WHO’S NEXT!?” You can check the FoCo menu online, so you really can’t complain if the food isn’t good that day. But you also can’t ever let anyone know that you actually check the FoCo menu. You shouldn’t be eating lunch or dinner at Novack before midterms begin. If you are…you need to love yourself. KAF is not part of DDS. You can use DBA, but you cannot use a meal swipe there. Learn this now before you learn it the hard way. You can get creative and order off the menu at the HOP. If you listen to the orders before and after yours, you’ll end up hearing some pretty unique food combinations. You may be dubious whether they’re actually good, but many have become tried and true student favorites. Not putting your silverware in the bin at Foco just makes you a bad person. It’s like worse than not recycling. No matter where you are, you will have to wait your turn in line. All attempts at cutting corners and putting yourself ahead will just backfire.

College President Phil Hanlon sent links to the data along with comments in a campus-wide email the same day.
