Methadone clinic stymied by zoning

By Mark Henle | May 10, 2004

The nearby town of Lebanon recently nixed approval of a local methadone clinic when it realized its blunder in issuing a "retail" permit to the drug treatment facility. Officials had originally issued the permit to Habit Management -- a Boston-based company that owns 10 methadone clinics in Massachusetts and one in Manchester -- with the understanding that the clinic would be used as a "retail" space. City officials didn't recognize their mistake until Wednesday, when they promised residents that they would review the situation.

Cartwright to leave Hood for San Diego

By Mark Herman | May 10, 2004

Derrick Cartwright will leave an impressive legacy on the Hood Museum of Art when he departs as its director in early September to lead the San Diego Museum of Art. "I've been here four years, and I guess, I'm graduating," Cartwright said. Despite budget cuts, Cartwright has expanded the museum through donations and grants, including a substantial contribution from the Class of 1948. "We've managed to really grow in the most ambitious ways," he said. College Provost Barry Scherr agreed on Cartwright's achievements.

By Zachary Goldstein | May 7, 2004

Editor's Note: This is the first in a series of articles examining the far-reaching effects of last year's Supreme Court rulings on affirmative action. The May 1 deadline for high-school seniors to decide where they will be enrolling next year marked the conclusion of this year's college admissions process -- the first admissions cycle since the U.S.

And so end the weeks of feverish campaigning, the hours of impassioned speeches and the closest Student Assembly election in recent memory. The first observation to make about this election season is that it motivated the largest voter turnout in over a decade.

Students question choice of CEO as graduation speaker

By Tim Spellman | May 7, 2004

General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt '78 will speak at this year's commencement, while Kofi Annan, Sandra Day O'Connor, Bill Clinton and Jon Stewart are speaking at the graduations of other top universities -- a state of affairs that has riled many campus seniors. Seniors said that while Immelt may be a successful businessman, but that they had hoped for a speaker who boasts a more wide-ranging impact on the world -- not just the world economy. "I think it's a really uninteresting choice," Erika Easter '04 said.

A Mandate for Change

By Ralph Davies | May 7, 2004

This election certainly is bittersweet for all involved. I don't think anyone feels completely satisfied about the process or even the end result. With this in mind, I think it is important first to thank every student on this campus for putting up with the incessant BlitzMails, posters, newspaper scandals and general controversy.

By Meg Ciavarella | May 6, 2004

Kevin Arnold claims in his op-ed "EndPorn Has An Agenda" (The Dartmouth, April 30) that "the consumption of pornography may in fact be beneficial to sexual health, both for couples and for individuals." His entirely accurate and appropriate use of the word "consumption" exemplifies the problems of pornography.

Online gambling becomes dorm's addiction

By Alix Cody | May 6, 2004

For a group of roughly 10 Dartmouth males, online poker is much more than a game -- it's an addiction. Ever since Adam Patinkin '07 and Joseph Mannarino '07 won $35,000 playing a joint game a few weeks ago, much of their time has been spent in front of their computers in search of similar gains. On any given day, money is being won and lost in their rooms on the second floor of Richardson Hall, to the chagrin of residence hall authorities.
