'10 Girl: Yesterday, I booted in the daylight. On the Phi Delt porch. On the dog. '12 Girl: I should have had coffee instead of vodka this morning. '10 Psi U 1: You haven't been hanging out at all, bro. '10 Psi U 2: That's not true, I hung out all the time at the beginning of the term. '10 Psi U 1: Bro, you don't get rollover minutes for hanging out. '12 Girl: He wasn't paying attention to me, so I danced on a table. History Professor, mid-2A: I just threw my lecture in the trash. '10 Kappa to legion of Kappas over lunch: So last night I got paid $100 to punch a guy... Legion of Kappas: (Laughter) '10 Kappa: (through laughter) ...Yeah, it was so much fun I punched him again!

COUNTERPOINT: Sending your kids to Dartmouth

By Karen Iorio | May 8, 2009

When I consider the children I might decide to spawn when I'm older, I can picture them doing all kinds of things: winning Nobel prizes, becoming leaders of the free world, and buying me tacky "#1 Mom" mugs for Mother's Day (which is this weekend, for all you slackers) to name a few.

POINT: Sending your kids to Dartmouth

By Kate Farley | May 8, 2009

I honestly have never considered if I would send my kid to Dartmouth, mostly because I'm not sure how having children fits into my life plan to turn into a pile of caffeine. I did at least encourage my sister to come here, which not only qualifies me to write this column, but also makes my sister the first member of the Class of 2013 to be called out in The Mirror.

THIS, Sir, Is My Case!

By Rembert Browne | May 8, 2009

PRIDE and Prejudice: The Queer History of Dartmouth

By Eve Ahearn | May 1, 2009

Shirley Hu / The Dartmouth Staff Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning and Allied issues have made headlines in the national papers repeatedly over the past year -- from continued protests over the passage of Proposition 8 in California to the New Hampshire Senate voting to legalize same-sex marriage this past Wednesday. At the College, where The Dartmouth's own headlines have trumpeted news of the third annual PRIDE Week this past week, this week's Mirror asks, 'How has being a part of the LGBTQA community at Dartmouth changed in the past few years, and where is the community headed in the coming years?' "I feel like Dartmouth has definitely changed and become more inclusive of LGBT students, but there is still a long way to go," Ray Rodriguez '09, one of the organizers of PRIDE Week, said. The letter A is sometimes added to the acronym LGBTQ to include "allies," or people who are not LGBTQ, but advocate for the fair treatment of those who are. "In my eyes, there's a huge difference in the LGBT people that have been here for four years, and the '12s that just came in.

Out at Dartmouth (Leah S)

By Leah S | May 1, 2009

So, let's talk about gays at Dartmouth for a second. I have to admit, the gay community here proved to be a little different from the fantastical "college gay life" that I imagined before I arrived.

Reboot and Rally

By Luofei Deng | May 1, 2009

Usually each week that I'm writing, my editor will tell me to "write about some gadgets that pertain to the theme." She didn't tell me to do that this week.
