Re: Weeks before planned Dartmouth visit, Kirk assasination reverberates around campus
With the changing of the leaves typically comes an abundance of “leaf-peeping” tourists to the Upper Valley, typically one of the busiest times of the year for local businesses. While pleasant weather and earlier-than-expected fall foliage has brought visitors to the Upper Valley, one major group — Canadians — are notably visiting in significantly fewer numbers than usual, leading to a drop in overall tourism.
I hate driving, but Hanover makes me crave the peace of life behind the wheel. I spent interim chauffeuring my little sister to and from middle school. I listened to her chatter while methodically navigating the pothole-ridden roads of Connecticut suburbia, dodging protruding mailboxes and the high school track team and women in their 60s walking dogs too close to the middle of the road. The rides were amusing; I had forgotten how uniquely excruciating life as a seventh-grade girl is.
Dear Freak of the Week,
I began my final year at Dartmouth the same way I began my first: with the more strenuous hiking First Year Trip. In previous years, the weeks before trips had me brimming with excitement, putting on the ‘Medley,’ casually dancing along to “Shower” and “Blame it on the Boogie” as I meandered through my days. Although I was just as excited this year, that excitement was now laced with a quiet dread I couldn’t quite shake. This time, I was painfully aware of the finality of it all. This would be my last safety talk, my last batch of Annie’s Mac on the Trangia, my last Lodj Croo dinner and my last group of new trippees. This was my last First Year Trip, and I couldn’t escape the thought that I might never experience anything like it again.
The partial opening of the renovated Hopkins Center for the Arts on Sept. 15 has provoked mixed feelings from students and staff members. Some said they are frustrated with the incomplete construction, while others expressed excitement about access to the new facilities.
On Sept. 21, the Dartmouth Student Government Senate met for its first weekly meeting of the fall term. Led by student body president Sabik Jawad ’26, the Senate unanimously passed the Student Issues Task Force resolution to design and administer the student issues survey. It also discussed potential changes to standard operating procedures, special Senate elections and dining issues.
Re: ‘We’re not a political organization,’ Beilock tells matriculating students
Students at Dartmouth are once again being threatened with punishment for standing up against injustice. The Valley News reported last week that protests have already broken out over the administration’s handling of the Gaza conflict and calls to divest from weapons manufacturers. Instead of listening, it seems that the school is trying to silence them, with College President Sian Leah Beilock telling students that the College is “not a political organization.”
A wide swath of central New Hampshire, including Hanover, is currently facing its most extreme drought since 2000, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.
In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assasination, legacy media organizations — including the New York Times — have published news stories and analysis on modern American “polarization.” Since 2022, government professor Sean Westwood has studied the topic through surveys and computational models. His recent research has focused on political opinion, media misinformation and democratic norms in the United States. The Dartmouth sat down with Westwood to discuss his work and the future of American democracy.
After 15 minutes of drilling their blocking to perfection, the Dartmouth Volleyball team gathered on the Leede Arena sidelines in their end-of-practice routine. Rather than a speech from head coach Kevin Maureen Campbell and the rest of the coaching staff, players were given the chance to reflect on practice themselves. This conversation, a deliberate end to every practice, replaces a typical coach-athlete dynamic with a space where everyone is equal, Campbell said.
With their victory over Sacred Heart University on Saturday, the Dartmouth Women’s Rugby brought their record to an undefeated 3-0.
Down one point late in the fourth quarter, Dartmouth sat on the one-yard line with a chance to take the lead.
A wistful feeling I can’t quite place stirs in me at the arrival of fall: the shortening days bring thoughts of the open road, a desire to wander. The words of Isabelle Eberhardt are fitting.
James Wan’s 2013 horror film “The Conjuring” dramatized the exploits of real-life paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren in a thrilling and uncommonly poignant horror film. Since that initial installment, the series has expanded into a full-blown cinematic universe, with films like “Annabelle,” “The Nun” and their respective sequels.
You might recognize them from “The Wolf of Wall Street”: Bloomberg terminals are the go-to platform for everything in finance and economics, from news to options pricing to networking. Dartmouth has 12 of the computers that typically cost upwards of $20,000 annually. Administrators did not disclose how much the College pays in total for the subscriptions.
Re: ‘We’re not a political organization,’ Beilock tells matriculating students
We expect our universities to be havens for ethics, not just academics; we expect them to cultivate judgment and conscience, not just grant degrees and high-paying corporate jobs. This past week, those ideals were skinned and gutted in a dormitory kitchen, alongside a dead bear.
