Dartmouth in Film

By Myrel Iturrey | January 17, 2013

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.

The frenzy over the alleged Mayan apocalypse on Dec 21 highlighted an interesting trend in American pop culture: a focus on the end of civilization and what might lay beyond.

The Bucket List

By Lauren Vespoli | January 10, 2013

I think Winter term feels like more of a fresh start than Fall, particularly when we've been away from Hanover for over a month.

By Sara Kassir | January 10, 2013

There are aspects of Dartmouth and its culture that have so far endured the test of time. And then there are those that have faded away, even when they once seemed as permanent as the College itself.
