'16 Girl: If you ever want to hide your sexuality from your grandmother, I'm looking for a nice Jewish boy to marry. '16 Girl:I blacked out at AD, and I blacked in lying on the floor of a second floor Collis study room next to four mozz sticks. Gov Prof:I had an x-hour once and I hated it.

Editors' Note

By Erin Landau and Marina Shkuratov | February 13, 2014

We may or may not have been cyborgs in high school. We somehow managed to attend every meeting for each club even vaguely related to our interests, won awards for sports and woke up chipper at the ungodly hour of 6 a.m.

Through the Looking Glass: Here and Queer

By Lyra A. McKee | February 13, 2014

Every Dartmouth student probably remembers the day they arrived on campus as a wide-eyed freshman. For me, however, the day I flew up to Dartmouth for Dartmouth Outing Club First-Year Trips was also the day I came out of the closet as gay.

In Case You Were Wondering

By Katie Sinclair | February 13, 2014

In case you were wondering, Feb. 13-15 used to mark the Roman feast of Lupercalia, during which two young Roman men would sacrifice a dog and two goats, dress in goatskin and run around the city whacking people with bloody strips of skin from the aforementioned goats.

Rejected

Growing up in a town sardonically called “Swellesley, Mass.,” I never had much exposure to rejection.

Posters through the ages

By Aimee Sung | February 6, 2014

From this year’s theme to “A Very Grimm Winter Carnival” to the many ski-themed posters of Carnival’s early days, every year, a unique Winter Carnival fills campus with a buzz of excitement and produces a poster made in the artistic styles of the time.

Last-minute snowstorm arrives just in time for Carnival

By Zac Hardwick | February 6, 2014

Though nearly a foot of snow piled up Wednesday on the Green, rising temperatures in the month of January and a general lack of sufficient snowfall over the past few years have stymied classic Winter Carnival events and threatened the sanctity of the 103-year long tradition itself.

Whether the snow sculpture is a massive throne, an intricate pirate ship, a muddy cupcake or just two blocks of ice in the middle of the Green, we can always count on some dedicated students to build the Winter Carnival icon, an unavoidable thread that goes back many dozens of years through Dartmouth’s history. In 1994, one student jumped into a freezing pond and became a part of that story.

Carnival's Traditions, Changing With Time

By Chris Leech | February 6, 2014

The College has no shortage of traditions, from laps around the Homecoming bonfire to the semi-legal late-night swim that is the Ledyard Challenge. During past Winter Carnivals, however, some combination of cabin fever and a College-sanctioned holiday have driven students to come up with some downright ridiculous traditions.
