POINT: Where to Live?

By Victoria Boggiano | July 25, 2008

Ah, the joys of living off-campus. Paying rent once (or twice) a month, having to clean your shower and take out the trash and being forced to make the long trek to FoCo anytime you want a sandwich. No, but seriously, dishwashing aside, living off-campus is great.

'10 Tridelt (while painting a pong paddle): Boys think we're really cute for doing this. '10 Kappa: Oh my god I'm lactating! '10 Transfer student: Please don't lactate on me. Tri-Kap '10 to high school girl in basement: Yo, sorry you have to leave, we can't let high school people in. Girl, as she throws a beer in the guys face: I AM A GROWN ASS BITCH Tri-Kap, as he escorts her out: Too bad, we don't let grown ass bitches in either. '10 girl #1: Did you see that foco poster?

DDS + Sophomore Summer = sad face. How am I expected to live in a world where Foco closes at 10!? That's just honky talk.

COUNTERPOINT: Legit Classes?

By Kate Farley | July 11, 2008

Take legit classes during sophomore summer? Why? Not only would you miss massive facetime in Astro 3, you'd also be utterly confused by Sig Ep party blitzes referencing some guy named "Professor Ulrich." Plus, actually working may conflict with key rope-swing-jumping-off hours, or result in you missing out on the invaluable experience of bonding with your sweaty classmates in a 118 degree basement. The disadvantages are obvious, but as my naturally inquisitive nature set me thinking, I came to a shocking revelation. There are immediate, parent-friendly reasons for taking serious classes: they count towards your major, studying encourages an "adult," non-partying-oriented lifestyle and you're paying 80 times your future salary to be here.

Counterpoint: Sophomore Summer Relationships

By Paul Glenn | June 27, 2008

Frequent late-night visitors to my Facebook profile were disappointed to learn last week that I am now listed as "In a relationship." The move comes at a time when many Dartmouth "dating scene" "experts" claim that campus, at the fabled crux of the "X-Curve," is supposed to explode with hook up potential.

Point: Sophomore Summer Relationships

By Kate Farley | June 27, 2008

Ah, sophomore summer. Warm days, shirtless frisbee players on the Green, vaguely "summerish"-themed tails with the normal amount of alcohol and a quarter of the people ... what more do you need?

Reflections

By Joanna Patterson | June 27, 2008

For Dartmouth students, the hype surrounding sophomore summer is unavoidable: the intersection of the X-curve, the renowned scholastic offerings of Organic Farming, Engines 3 and Astro 2 and the opportunity to run back summer camp sans supervision -- all on a campus full of pong tables and no upperclassmen to take precedence.

Glory Stories

By Claire Murray | June 27, 2008

Sophomore summer--so we've heard for the first two years of our Dartmouth careers--is the best term ever.
