Ted Leo mixes old and new with varying success on 'Living'

By Chris Barth | April 2, 2007

On March 20, America's favorite vegan rocker Theodore Francis Leo, backed by his bandmates, returned to the indie-punk rock scene with his fifth album in eight years, "Living With The Living". Like previous records, "Living With The Living" combines punk grooves and brash guitar riffs with intelligent lyrics and interesting vocals to create a sound that, despite not varying greatly over the course of the album's hour-long run, manages to keep the listener engaged. Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, who played at Dartmouth two springs ago, have managed to capture hearts and slowly build a fan base over their short existence.

Financial aid for low-income students at Dartmouth

By Karl Furstenberg | April 2, 2007

To The Editor: Alfred Valrie '01 raises the important issue of student loans and the burden on students from low income families ("Owing an Arm, a Leg and a Future," March 29). We share this concern, which is precisely why Dartmouth has made dramatic reductions to loan expectations for students and increased scholarship amounts commensurately. These changes have reduced the average total loan for Dartmouth financial aid recipients by 20 percent and increased annual scholarship support for students by approximately $4 million. The following chart (below) indicates the loan expectations for the 2006-07 academic year. Valrie also raises the question of the relationship between colleges and universities and various loan processing agencies. Dartmouth's association with New Hampshire Higher Education Assistance Foundation has been closely scrutinized.

SA to create 'Dartmouth wiki'

By Brook Jackling | April 2, 2007

Student Assembly quickly responded to an e-mail sent to the entire student body by "The Dartmouth Wiki" -- a new website unaffiliated with the college that allows registered users to post and respond to questions -- through a follow-up e-mail sent to students on March 30. The follow-up e-mail stated that the Assembly and the Computer Science Department are in the process of creating an official Dartmouth wiki and that the Dartmouth University Wiki, as it is titled on the website, is an unfiltered "outside commercial venture" unaffiliated with the College. "We wanted to discourage the student body from using this wiki because there could be a lot of negative consequences," Ruslan Tovbulatov '09, treasurer of the Assembly, said.

Columnists With Nothing to Say

People always complain about The Dartmouth (myself included, which might be a bit hypocritical since I wrote last summer, "Today marks the last day I will ever complain about The Dartmouth"). However, there are very few sections that are criticized as frequently as the opinion section.
