Counterpoint: Gym Facetime?

By Katherine Gorman | April 11, 2008

We must all avoid using the gym as a place to get facetime. Yes, even you, girl that blowdries her long locks before languidly running on the treadmill at Alumni Gym during the "Busy Time." Don't get me wrong, I totally understand that the desire to be seen in the right place at the right time with the right people wearing the right outfit is one of the most important motivating forces for many a Dartmouth student.

Booze and The Body: High and Dry

By Jennifer Garfinkel | April 11, 2008

For many Dartmouth students, hangovers are no big deal. Your body reels, you curse yourself for drinking too much, but you grab a Billy Bob from the Hop and wait it out. But for other students at Dartmouth, even a minor hangover can be detrimental. For this reason, some Dartmouth athletes find heavy drinking and late-night partying taking a back seat to certain commitments: to their bodies, their performance and their teammates. The men's varsity heavyweight crew team has one of the more drastic alcohol policies on campus, which this year requires team members to forgo alcohol from the end of Winter Carnival until June.

Point and Counterpoint: Is Streaking Funny?

By Jennifer Garfinkel | April 4, 2008

Explaining why streaking is funny is like explaining why people visit the leaning tower of Pisa. The answer is obvious and often taken for granted, but when you try to articulate it, there isn't much to say ("Um, because it's leaning...?"). But I have column inches to fill, so I'll do my best to defend the timeless art of streaking. I will start by clarifying that streaking is not "haha," laugh-out-loud funny.

The Granite in Our Brains

By Jean Ellen Cowgill | April 4, 2008

Holy Shit I'm Awkward!" My '08 compatriots may recall this Facebook group among the plethora that cropped up our freshman fall, back when the site was novel and thrilling (OMG, look how e-popular I am already!!!). Shortly thereafter, campus entered into a momentous debate, a quarrel only matched in intensity by the ubiquitous "Greek vs.

When I read stories like last Sunday's New York Times piece "Sex in the Ivy League," basically about how Harvard students are too uptight and take themselves far too seriously, I once again thanked my lucky stars that I go to Dartmouth, the Ivy League of Croos, gratuitous streaking and Animal House.

By Dylan Leavitt | March 28, 2008

Tilman Dette / The Dartmouth Senior Staff I opened the door to my room and shuddered with disgust at my once silver flats that I'd recently bought from TJ Maxx in West Leb.
