Asch pitches editing program to help minority writing

By Jesse Silberberg | May 30, 2007

Philip Woram / The Dartmouth Staff A last ditch-effort made by Joe Asch '79 to save the Departmental Editing Program -- a program he funds out of his own pocket, and one that has faced the prospect of cancelation for the last two years -- has failed following a heated meeting and personal accusations. Asch proposed to certain members on the executive boards of the Afro-American Society and Native Americans at Dartmouth that the DEP editors be housed in Cutter-Shabazz Hall to serve as resources exclusively for black and Native American students.

By Luke Mann-O'Halloran | May 29, 2007

Foregoing typically laid back spring of seniors who spend their last term at Dartmouth off from classes, Sarah Markus '07 is instead using her senior spring to track down stray rodents, fix power outages and deal with downed telephone lines while working at the Dartmouth-owned Moosilauke Ravine Lodge, located about an hour north of campus. "Over the last week, we've had baby mice falling from the ceiling," she said.

The true scope of the Obama canvass

By Beau Trudel | May 29, 2007

To the Editor: As a member of Dartmouth Students for Barack Obama, I would like to clarify several points which I feel were not accurately presented in the May 21 article "Campaign canvassers pound the pavement." The article mentioned the canvassing activities of several other presidential candidates. It is important to note, however, that the May 19 Obama canvass was not a small, isolated event at Dartmouth.

Proud of the College President

By Brian Chao | May 29, 2007

To the Editor: While I have not always agreed with the decisions and statements made by this College administration, the story of College President James Wright's aid to our wounded troops, as reported by the New York Times and by ABC News ("In the Wright Direction," May 25), is a heartening reminder that, beyond the disagreements and rancor that may arise on the Hanover plain, our mission as Dartmouth men and Dartmouth women is not to just improve the College which we share, but to contribute to the world in which we are merely a part.

Women of Dartmouth deserve less objectivity, more emotion from The D

By Alyson Guillet | May 29, 2007

Never before had I seen such utter disrespect and disregard for speakers who seek to share something so personal of themselves with a room full of strangers.

One foot out the closed door

By Abi Medvin | May 25, 2007

The intricacies of Dartmouth culture have become so convoluted in my mind that I'm not exactly sure if this observation is profound or blindingly obvious: sex, even the casual kind, is about connection. Over the course of the last six months I have collected a lot of survey comments from a lot of people, and a significant portion of them have expressed feelings of frustration, isolation and loneliness.

The Cost of Leaving

By Lense Gebre-Mariam | May 25, 2007

At times Dartmouth's location can be a challenge for the student body's many city-dwellers. The lack of exotic entertainment, diverse array of restaurants, shopping locales, hustle and bustle of everyday life and efficient public transportation can make Hanover, N.H.
