A Berry Important Issue

By Matt Lifson | November 4, 2010

I can think of no other issue plaguing Dartmouth that so urgently begs forum discussion and student action than the egregious misallocation of iMacs on first floor Berry. As Dartmouth students, I think most of us are very cognizant of the fact that we represent a great amount of diversity (be it economic, racial, geographic or in the case of certain mythological-mobile-theatre-players psychological diversity). So of course, this diversity implies that there is a broad range of personal resources to which different students have access and it is imperative that students with greater resources begin to understand that they must take advantage of their means and leave Dartmouth's resources to the less privileged and more deserving. What does this have to do with frst floor Berry iMacs?

Activism for Equality

By Paige Franklin | November 4, 2010

Throughout the cotentious fight for equality at the College there has been a protest, a painted Winter Carnival sculpture and four shanties on the Green. Dartmouth integrated 40 years before the other Ivies with Edward Mitchell, member of the Class of 1828, gaining admission to the college as the first African American.

A Point of Protest

By Jack Boger | November 4, 2010

What does it take to get Dartmouth students riled up? There was much talk and little action in the wake of recent Hanover Police initiatives and the closing of the beloved swim docks on the Connecticut River.

Dartmouth's My Favorite

By Emily Hirshey | November 4, 2010

This week's Mirror is about Forums (capital "F" because WE MEAN IT). This seems serious. If I make fun of it, I'll probably be the cause of the next discussion.

Frosty's Corner

By Sarah Frostenson | November 4, 2010

Analogy: Student Activism is to Dartmouth as Global Warming is to the Environment. In other words, it doesn't exist. OK, so that last part was a joke; I'm not Glenn Beck.

Forums are Forgettable

By Zoe Williams | November 4, 2010

We have too many forums at this school. Every time a big, sensitive or seemingly difficult-to-tackle problem arises, the preferred response, it would appear, is for Student Assembly (or maybe a random dean) to hold an open discussion in Collis Commonground to "start a campus dialogue" about the issue at hand.

There are a few things that are consistent about every term at Dartmouth and campus controversy is one of them.

Frosty's Corner

True or False: I go to Dartmouth. Therefore, I am entitled to a better job, faster car and hotter spouse than you. At Dartmouth, we work hard and we play even harder.

Nobody Cares About High School

By Leslie Ye | October 21, 2010

Here's some food for thought. When I asked my friends what they thought stereotypes of private and public schools were, they answered as follows:Private schools: "exclusive, sheltered, academically superior, rich." "Snobby, overly cocky, pretentious." "Preppy, anal, good at blowing things out of proportion, arrogant." "Snooty, they think they're better than everyone."Public schools: "middle-class, underfunded, poor academic performance, overcrowded." "Stupid, poor." "Laid-back, heavily reliant on parents, somewhat immature socially and lacking in fashion sense." Ouch. We all know the stereotypes.

Dartmouth Elementary

By Patrick Chen | October 21, 2010

At some point in my life I've been told that a grown man should never 1) enjoy the lyrical prose of female pop stars, 2) watch children's television (Jersey Shore?) and 3) cry.

This issue began as a conversation with someone about our experiences in high school in relation to our life at Dartmouth.
