Is Campus Activism Dead?

By Lily Ringler | February 22, 2008

On May 6, 1969 at 3:15 p.m., Dartmouth College was in a veritable state of chaos. Carrying "hammers, nails, and padlocks" a group of 75 students ran into Parkhurst and calmly explained to those inside that they were about to take the building over.

ROTC: Band of Brothers or 4-Letter Word?

By Esther Ha | February 22, 2008

Caitlin Kelly / The Dartmouth Senior Staff Imagine a clear, sunny day: you grab a poetry anthology and head outside to do some reading, and there, right in the midst of your Keats, you see 400 students in fatigues marching across the Green. While this may seem like the stuff of fiction, a similar training scenario for student soldiers occurred not too long ago on our familiar campus. Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) program is a college-based officer commissioning program used predominantly in the United States.

The DM Manual of Style

By Dylan Leavitt | February 15, 2008

Godiva, Lindt, Cadbury, Hershey's, Nestle -- all those politically correct, organic brands that pledge to save endangered species. Since Valentine's Day (which for me could be called Chocolate Appreciation Day) was just yesterday, I've run down to CVS and stocked up on my now halfpriced favorite: dark, bitter chocolate -- the kind that you bite into and exclaim, "Why, this is an embarrassment to candy, it has so little sugar!" I m u s t admit, a little p i e c e of chocolate every day maintains sanity. you)? it (while avoiding the mud, of course... although now that I think about indulgence alive in your fashions.

Bite-sized

By Grace Kang | February 15, 2008

Valentine's Day is about loving the one you're with, whether it be that gentleman caller down the hall (floor-cest!) or the tripee who you eat lunch with every week (tripcest!). Either way, treat yourself to an easy riff on strawberry shortcake. Presentation is flexible: you can create heart shapes out of the berries, cut out hearts in the pound cake -- just go crazy! back. Berry Love Cake Ingredients ** 1 loaf pound cake ** 2 pints fresh strawberries ** 1 can whipped cream ** White or brown sugar, to taste ** 8 ounces quality bittersweet or white chocolate, chopped (optional) Directions Rinse, trim and halve the strawberries.

A Dartmouth Valentine's Day poem

By Jean Ellen Cowgill | February 15, 2008

The key to understanding Valentine's Day, as everyone knows, is the Hallmark card. And I think here's where our problem begins; Dartmouth and Hallmark are living in completely different worlds -- just try to find the "I'm sorry I peed on you" card or the "To my booty call, on this Valentine's Day" card in CVS. Okay, so Dartmouth doesn't quite match the picture that Hallmark has crafted for us.
