Mirror Munchies

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

The Art of Facebook: Seven Summer Sins

We all pretend that when we grow up, we will deactivate our Facebook accounts. I'm willing to bet we won't.

The Perfect Sophomore Summer Day

Summer is all about spending as much time outdoors as much as possible. So to help you out, we've scheduled a perfect summer Saturday from sunrise at 5:15 a.m.

The Seven Summer Essentials for 08X

Until this summer, I didn't realize how much a little sunshine and a high of 85 could brighten my day.

COUNTERPOINT: Legit Classes?

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.

POINT: Legit Classes?

The sun is out but classes are in full swing as we finish week four of the best 10 weeks of our lives.

Sophomore summer may seem like the perfect time to hook up: the weather is nice, clothes start coming off and everyone is drunk almost every night of the week.

A View from the Top: A Slow Sports Week

It's been a quiet week in the world of sports, and in the Hanover bubble. The Wimbledon final is in the books as one of the greatest matches of all time, Major League Baseball is holding its breath before the All-Star Game and trade deadline, and nothing interesting is happening in the golf world. On the home front, the initial athletic enthusiasm on campus has waned.

Vox Clamantis: Profane? You're Insane!

To the Editor: As Editor-in-Chief of the Dartmouth Free Press, I am writing in response to Sam Buntz's most recent opinion column ("Profane Tank," July 1). While I take issue with many of Buntz's claims, I am most concerned that he feels the "principal failing" of our "Fck that Shit" column lies in its mistaking "the f-word and its kin as being humorous in and of themselves." Though I often do find profanity hilarious, especially when it ruffles the feathers of prudes, I can assure Buntz that we do not intend our "Fck that Shit" to leave our readers "giggling" or in a state of "shock" -- and we certainly do not intend for it to add any "clear and logical" argument to our campus discourse. Instead, "Fck that Shit" exists solely as a rant column for our writers to complain about issues that bother them on campus while inevitably parodying excessive profanity.

The Return of Heroes

Superheroes have become mass entertainment again. This isn't really news: anyone who has gone to the movies at anytime in the past 10 years has surely noticed the proliferation of masked crusaders on the big screen, making the leap from ink to actor. Why have superheroes suddenly regained the popularity they once had?

Rassias method travels to Mexico

Although the image of French and Italian professor John Rassias punctuating a lecture with sudden sprints around his classroom may be a familiar one, the audience watching Rassias' antics this week will be slightly different.
