The introduction of Alpha Phi as the College's seventh sorority will provide a new female social space in what many view as a male-dominated social scene. But with 13 fraternities and only three sororities permitted to throw alcoholic parties in their physical plants, many feel the social scene still has a long way to go before this gender imbalance is corrected.
But don't be discouraged. This weekend is nothing like Winter Carnival. Although there's no pathetically melting snow sculpture to mock, the rainy weather can bring other joys.

When President Emeritus James Freedman came to Dartmouth in 1987, he entered an institution that was still male-dominated, largely conservative and mired at the bottom of Ivy League academics. He instituted policies promoting diversity and intellectual openness that helped transform the College's public image.
