Oscars are still up in the air, with no frontrunner in sight

By Matt Hill | November 23, 2004

As Oscar season comes into full swing, one can't help but notice the lack of a true frontrunner. This year we are certainly lacking a "Return of the King" or "Titanic," whose critical reception and wide appeal carried them both to record-tying sweeps of 11 awards.

Strong individual performances highlight swim, dive road meets

By Katelyn McCarthy | November 23, 2004

This weekend marked the two-year anniversary of the College's unexpected swim team cut. It was only appropriate, then, that the Dartmouth women's swim and dive team would celebrate by traveling up and down the East Coast, road tripping to face tough Ivy League opponents Brown and Columbia. Kristin Simunovich '06 led the way in the first meet on Saturday against Brown, with a third-place finish in the 50-yard freestyle in a time of 25.53.

It's All a Balancing Act

By Jon Appleton | November 22, 2004

To the Editor: I am sure many faculty appreciated Michael Belinsky's insightful and forceful editorial "Teaching, Research, or Both?" (The Dartmouth, November 18). He suggests that Dartmouth "must evolve to compete or else continue to face the negative effects of stagnation." The reasons that these changes do not occur is complex but three important ones are: (1) the administration fears it will lose its alumni support, (2) we do not have a Dean of Faculty who has the vision or strength to urge change (although we did with Bharucha and Gazzaniga who each lasted only a year), (3) many faculty who do not do their own professional (research in Belinsky's terms) are threatened by an influx of faculty who do so.

SA begins effort to post syllabi online

By AnnMary Mathew | November 22, 2004

At a time when everything from course readings to grades is posted online, Dartmouth students are often surprised to discover that updated course syllabi are not available to them during the course selection process. The Student Assembly wants to change that, although it is likely to face an uphill, protracted fight. Many professors have expressed concerns about the plan, said Vice President of Academic Affairs Steven Koutsavlis '05.

Signs of brilliance shone Saturday

By D.J. Gelner | November 22, 2004

Call off the FBI. Stop combing the area. It appears men's hockey coach Bob Gaudet has finally found some line combinations that work. After coping with the season-ending injury to star winger Hugh Jessiman '06, many of the Big Green faithfuls were becoming fed up with the inconsistent play of the makeshift lines thrown on the ice. But Saturday night at Thompson Arena, it all finally seemed to click.

Big Green women's hockey trounces rivals Colgate, Cornell

By Tony Hao | November 22, 2004

The Big Green women's hockey team made things interesting this weekend, coming home from New York with another pair of wins and a still-undefeated record on the season. Thanks to Cherie Piper '06's game-winning goal with six minutes remaining in the second period, Dartmouth (7-0, 6-0 ECACHL) squeaked out a 4-3 victory over Colgate (4-6, 0-3 ECACHL) on Friday night in Starr Rink. Krista Dornfried '05 and Gillian Apps '06 quickly put the Big Green up by a pair late in the first frame, but what seemed like another blowout victory turned into a much tougher contest.
