My senior year of high school, I spent many class periods (in the lull after AP exams) on College Confidential for information about life at Dartmouth. But what I was asking for had no answer: I wanted to know exactly who I would become and what experiences I would have.

The Canadian groundfruit of Dartmouth Outing Club’s First-Year Trips is just one of the delicacies the Big Green offers its students after they matriculate. Back on campus, students can select from a variety of establishments run by Dartmouth Dining Services.

Christian Fellowship: 30 students participate in an "All Night Prayer"
