New Hampshire faces drought
As peak foliage returns to Hanover this fall, the beautiful autumn colors symbolize a yearly New England tradition. But underground, the situation could not be more different. Currently, abnormally low groundwater levels have caused much of the state of New Hampshire to experience drought conditions.
New mission selected for Tuck
One year ago, Dean of the Tuck School of Business Matthew Slaughter, along with several members of the leadership team, set out to refine the graduate school’s mission.

Reaves: On Listening
Western society has always placed a premium on debate. From the early forums of Rome to the current political boxing ring, intellectual activity has been consistently built on discussion. Yet this blind worship of discourse has its drawbacks, notably when it comes to how easily it can silence minority voices. We as a society are so insistent on proving our own points that we unintentionally silence those who need to be heard the most.
Huebner: A Useful Housing System
On Wednesday, I had breakfast with South House professor Kathryn Lively to discuss ways to improve the new housing system at the College. Before our meeting, I was admittedly skeptical: According to upperclassmen, the housing system was a device engineered by the administration to squash the Greek system and micromanage student life. I was told that the administration was opaque and sluggish; in short, good luck trying to get anything meaningful done on campus.
Solomon: Locker Room to Game Day
In the final sprint of arguably the most bizarre election in American history, every possible news source is beyond saturated with the words “Trump” and “Clinton.” Like many Americans, I am tired. I am tired of the political vitriol, the crude and indecent dialogue and the utter failure of the media and candidates to ge nuinely address matters of substance. I am tired of having to justify everything as a choice between the lesser of two evils. And most of all, I am tired of feeling embarrassed, as an American citizen, of the international laughingstock we have become.
Student spotlight: actress and singer Zahra Ruffin ’17
Although Zahra Ruffin ’17 is now an actress, she was introduced to the world of theater through dance. In middle school Ruffin’s homeroom teacher asked her to be a background dancer in the school’s performance of “Guys and Dolls”. Ruffin said that she thought her theater career would be over after that show, but the next year, the same teacher gave her the script for the fall production.

Of the many technologies that have been developed at or gifted to the Thayer School of Engineering Machine Shop, the 3-D printer stands out in the way it attracts students from all disciplines to explore new ideas in design.
College temporarily suspends some recycling
The College is temporarily suspending recycling activity at collection points near certain dining locations on campus. The change is a result of contamination of recycling with regular and food waste, College spokesperson Diana Lawrence said in a statement. Collis Cafe, the Hop Courtyard Cafe and King Arthur Flour are such areas of high contamination, which has resulted in difficulties in processing for the recycling facility. The Class of 1953 Commons has not been affected by this contamination. The College is currently working with the facility to identify and resolve the issue.
The Objet 3D printer is housed in the Thayer School of Engineering's machine shop.

Through the Looking Glass: A Unicorn in the Tech World
A unicorn in the tech world is defined as a start-up company that is currently valued at over $1 billion. Unicorns are named as such because they are extremely rare. Here’s a number even more rare: 50 percent. On average, women make up about 15.6 percent of technical employees. That is a pretty insane statistic, and one that I hope to change.
