Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. Regardless of who's crazy now, they were the most adorable twins out there. Peanut butter and chocolate, better known to some as chocolate and peanut butter. Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield.
Note to readers (May 23, 2014): When The Dartmouth found thatJake Bayer '16 had fabricated a quotation, wedecided to remove his articles from our website. For a full statement, clickhere.
I have never pulled an all-nighter for academic reasons. This experience was on my bucket list not because I thought it would be fun, but because I feel like it's something people do that I haven't.
What do flying squirrels, opossums and Dartmouth students have in common? If you answered beady eyes and claws, you are sadly mistaken.
Dreams. Sometimes they're weird and sometimes they're surprisingly normal, but whatever you dream, it most likely reveals something interesting about you. Perhaps it's due to the cold air or lingering effects of Keystone, but Dartmouth students have some particularly strange dreams.
If Dartmouth was a person dressing to show off its best feature, that feature would be its academic flexibility.
Dear Gardner and Kate, I'm looking for fun little changes to make in my life. What is something small that makes you happy on a daily basis? Melancholy Mark '15 Gardner: Every morning when I wake up, remember how cold it is outside and see the snow drift deep along the road, I wonder why I didn't go to school in some tropical locale like Nashville.
For about six years, I dreamed of being an author and illustrator of children's books. Then I turned eight, had an existential crisis and dreamt a new dream I wanted to be a doctor.
To be honest, my dream school growing up would not have been Dartmouth. I knew what I wanted: a large university, preferably somewhere warm and not too close to home.
/ The Dartmouth Staff A little known fact about me is that I was a fairly unsuccessful child actress, starring in "When I Grow Up I Want to be... A Veterinarian." Though this was the peak of my acting career, it wasn't the end of my life as a performer.
To say you were gifted as a child would be an understatement. You were more than gifted. You were inspired.
The Sun God: '16s, this reference may be before your time, but since he actually made a living as a performance artist, we figured he deserved a shoutout. Ma Thayer: Performs every day at lunch and dinner. My Dartmouth ID: Which performs a disappearing act every time i'm trapped outside my door in the freezing cold. The Dartmouth vpn: Stealing the show and getting you netflix on your off-term.
The Year of the Arts, the Black Family Visual Arts Center, Sarner Underground: they're all new developments on campus.
'14 Girl: I like people who I don't even know. I can't imagine how it would feel to like someone I did know. '15 Girl: I really need to blitz this kid to figure things out.
Allison Wang / The Dartmouth Staff We are introduced to Conrad "Ronnie" Brean an amoral political spin-doctor and one of Robert De Niro's most acclaimed roles in a hectic White House Situation Room. "Where'd you go to school, kid," Brean asks the White House aide, played by Suzanne Cryer "Wellesley?" The actress in the 1997 comedy "Wag the Dog," described in the original screenplay as a "bright young woman in her 20s," responds plainly: "Dartmouth." "Then show a little spunk!" Brean retorts. The quick, albeit telling reference to Dartmouth made within the first 10 minutes of the film's opening scene is just one amongst a slew of the College's portrayals in cinema.
For a school about as far away from Hollywood as you can get in the United States, Dartmouth has a huge number of alumni who shined in the arts while they were undergraduates.
When people talk about gendered spaces at Dartmouth, they are usually referring to the Greek scene.
Dartmouth students are notoriously overbooked. A 10 p.m. group project meeting is the norm and our iCals are visually pleasing just based on the sheer number of color-coded activities.
Award winning play director and Dartmouth theatre professor Carol Dunne didn't always feel comfortable around the stage. "The first time I did it, I was terrified," Dunne recalled.
