Lessons Learned

|

To me, Jack Kerouac's quote from "On the Road" epitomizes Dartmouth: "The only ones for me are the mad ones." Dear Dartmouth, you are absolutely raving insane, and that is why I love you. As a writer for The Mirror for the last three years, I have had the privilege of talking to some of Dartmouth's most colorful characters about their infamous experiences. I have chosen my top ten favorite quotes from The Mirror the frattiest, most inappropriate and typical Dartmouth quotes I could find and included the universal Dartmouth lessons that apply. "Once when I was blacked out, I walked to retrieve my EBAs, but got lost along the way.

Counterpoint: Alternative Spots

|

I usually feel accomplished if I survive a big weekend with my liver relatively intact (horrified blitz from my mother in three, two, one...), but this Green Key, I discovered a new hazard: GAMMAPALOOZA.

Point: Alternative Spots

|

Alternative social spaces often get a bad rap as poorly executed attempts by Student Assembly and Programming Board to offer students something -- anything -- other than fratting it up on any given Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Saturday night.

Funding the "Alternative"

|

In light of all the hype generated by the anticipated arrival of Three 6 Mafia at Alumni Hall this Friday, and the unscrupulous scalping that has resulted due to a shortage of tickets, you may be wondering: "Why wasn't my student activities fee able to guarantee me a seat?" Every term, along with our tuition, room and board, books and miscellaneous expenditures, we ante up $75 in student activities fees.

'10 Girl: Yesterday, I booted in the daylight. On the Phi Delt porch. On the dog. '12 Girl: I should have had coffee instead of vodka this morning. '10 Psi U 1: You haven't been hanging out at all, bro. '10 Psi U 2: That's not true, I hung out all the time at the beginning of the term.

Spotlight:Ruslan Tovbulatov '09

It's easy to see why Ruslan Tovbulatov '09 calls himself "an events planner at heart." As a member of PB and Class Council, former co-chair of Student Assembly's student life committee and Chi Gam's social chair, Ruslan has spent his time at Dartmouth trying to break the mold of typical campus parties.

COUNTERPOINT: Sending your kids to Dartmouth

|

When I consider the children I might decide to spawn when I'm older, I can picture them doing all kinds of things: winning Nobel prizes, becoming leaders of the free world, and buying me tacky "#1 Mom" mugs for Mother's Day (which is this weekend, for all you slackers) to name a few.
