Femina Clamat in Deserto

Women first arrived on campus in 1972 as full-time students and degree candidates to signs that read, "Co-hogs go home." At the outset of coeducation, women often found it difficult to feel comfortable at Dartmouth and even harder to voice their opinions and establish their presence on campus, according to religion professor Susan Ackerman '80, who attended the College in the late 1970s when women were still new and in the minority on campus. "Many of the organizations where women can speak as a collective didn't exist," she said. Ackerman currently serves as the chair of the religion department, and she is a member of the faculty of thewomen and gender studies program.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry: "Never tickle a sleeping dragon." You'd think that Rowena, Godric, Salazar and Helga would have come up with something slightly more spellbinding. Stephenson College: "One day I will rule the world." Noted alumni may include Mussolini, Hitler and Qadaffi.
