The D Manual of Style

By Dylan Leavitt | July 9, 2009

You've seen her running up that hill on West Wheelock St.: shorts swishing and iPod blaring. She's at the gym on the elliptical reading Us Weekly, checking the clock and looking in the mirror.

Editors' Note

Spring term at Dartmouth is possibly one of the best times of year. However, each June becomes more bittersweet than the last as another class says goodbye to dear ol' Dartmouth, and it gets even closer to being our turn. This year, we are forced to say so long to the Class of 2009.

Life Outside the Bubble

By Joanna Patterson | May 28, 2009

After four years, I've picked up some pretty critical Dartmouth survival skills. Sean knows my breakfast wrap order, I've memorized the pattern at the traffic light and I know to count the remaining cups to figure out whose turn it is to drink. My pants are hemmed about two inches shorter than they should be, and my favorite pair of frat shoes is made of plastic, so any griming up leaves them only a quick rinse away from being wearable again. I've accepted that the paths on the Green are both asymmetrical and nonsensical, and happily cut across the grass. With this skill set happily in place, I've begun to realize that these don't exactly hold up as exemplary transferable abilities.

Lessons Learned

By Jilian Gundling | May 28, 2009

To me, Jack Kerouac's quote from "On the Road" epitomizes Dartmouth: "The only ones for me are the mad ones." Dear Dartmouth, you are absolutely raving insane, and that is why I love you. As a writer for The Mirror for the last three years, I have had the privilege of talking to some of Dartmouth's most colorful characters about their infamous experiences. I have chosen my top ten favorite quotes from The Mirror the frattiest, most inappropriate and typical Dartmouth quotes I could find and included the universal Dartmouth lessons that apply. "Once when I was blacked out, I walked to retrieve my EBAs, but got lost along the way.

Point: Alternative Spots

By Joanna Patterson | May 22, 2009

Alternative social spaces often get a bad rap as poorly executed attempts by Student Assembly and Programming Board to offer students something -- anything -- other than fratting it up on any given Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Saturday night.

Funding the "Alternative"

By Sarah Frostenson | May 22, 2009

In light of all the hype generated by the anticipated arrival of Three 6 Mafia at Alumni Hall this Friday, and the unscrupulous scalping that has resulted due to a shortage of tickets, you may be wondering: "Why wasn't my student activities fee able to guarantee me a seat?" Every term, along with our tuition, room and board, books and miscellaneous expenditures, we ante up $75 in student activities fees.
