On June 3, I used my leftover DBA to donate over 150 pounds of fresh fruit, yogurt, vegetables, milk and orange juice from Dartmouth's dining halls to Willing Hands, a local organization fighting hunger in the Upper Valley. While some of us at Dartmouth find ourselves with unspent DBA at the end of the term, members of our local community including children, veterans and working families, find themselves unsure of from where their next meals will come. Like other students, I had to ask myself: "What do I do with my leftover DBA?" Students have found pragmatic solutions.

Of all the lessons I have learned at Dartmouth, the most important may be: Try to help change the world for the better; don't try to save it. The difference between facilitating change and attempting to rescue the world from its ills may seem largely semantic, but there is a difference in meaning, too.

In an unsuccessful opening weekend of basketball, both the Big Green men's and women's basketball teams took to the road and lost their season openers to Providence College (1-0) by a score of 87-52 and Northwestern University (1-0) 66-37, respectively. In Providence, the Big Green men's team (0-1, 0-0 Ivy) was outplayed by an overpowering Friars squad, who jumped out to a quick 19-3 lead and never looked back, taking a 25 point lead into halftime. The Friars shot 56 percent from the floor, including knocking down eight shots from behind the arc.
