Looking back at 2006-2007: Tolerance tested, COS challenged, SA overhauled and alumni embattled

|

/ The Dartmouth During their last year on campus, members of the Class of 2007 saw Dartmouth tackle issues ranging from racial tension to alumni governance -- debates which at times thrust the College into the national spotlight. Arriving back on campus for Fall term, students were greeted by a changed landscape, as the Tuck Mall and McLaughlin Residential Clusters and academic buildings Kemeny Hall and Haldeman Center opened in September.

One foot out the closed door

The intricacies of Dartmouth culture have become so convoluted in my mind that I'm not exactly sure if this observation is profound or blindingly obvious: sex, even the casual kind, is about connection.

Philanthropy, food, culture offer non-Greek alternatives

|

Free food and warm weather are the foundation for success of this year's non-Greek Green Key events, according to Green Key Society President JeanCarlos Bonilla '08. "At this point people are low on DBA, so people pretty much take the free food that they can get," Bonilla said.

Once bussed into Hanover for big-weekend dances in the years before co-education and now throwing parties in their own sorority houses, the role that women have played over Green Key Weekend has changed greatly throughout Dartmouth's history. Before the College became coeducational in 1972, up to 1000 women would travel to Hanover by bus, train or car for Green Key weekend as the male students' dates.

Hanover residents and businesses prepare for big weekend

|

As local businesses and high school students prepare for Green Key Weekend, residents of the town of Hanover will not be as much of a presence on campus as they tend to be over Homecoming and Winter Carnival -- a difference attributable to the insular focus of most of the weekend's activities. "Your average town resident doesn't even know what's going on," Town Manager Julia Griffin said.

This weekend, you may find yourself waiting behind a group of people using real money in the line at FoCo. Later that night in a frat basement, you might even be paired up with someone who seems like they haven't seen a paddle in more than a year.
