Hildreth alleges campaign sabotage

In a scandal that may rock Dartmouth's neck-and-neck race for Student Body President, a close friend of candidate Julia Hildreth '05 has alleged a BlitzMail hacker broke into her account and sent fake endorsement messages for Hildreth to much of the College's senior class. Rules set by the Election Planning and Advisory Committee prohibit mass-mailing, and some have speculated that an anonymous hacker has aimed to turn senior opinion against Hildreth or have Hildreth censured by EPAC. While EPAC officials were still investigating the incident Monday night, EPAC co-chair Stephanie Long '04 said the election might be scrapped later if the incident is linked to a specific candidate's supporters. Hildreth's friend and supporter Stella Treas '05 said she was checking her mail using the Netblitz computer program at around 8 p.m.

A new Windows computer virus scourging the campus has incapacitated student computers, producing long lines at the Computing Services desk in Baker-Berry Library and frustrating the efforts of at least one professor attempting to teach class. Victoria Sevastianova's Russian 13 class came to a halt Monday after a computer infected with the "Sasser virus" prevented the machine from turning on.

Take Back Dartmouth

By Karan Danthi | May 3, 2004

Back in 1997, the Assembly passed a resolution requesting that the administration give Dartmouth students the right to vote in the election of new members of the Board of Trustees.

Vision and Action

By Jim Baehr | May 3, 2004

Ten million. That's the number of dollars the administration budget has expanded by in the last four years while academic, athletic and library funding has been cut. That's the number that has been spent on more bureaucracy while beloved professors and athletic teams have come under the chopping block. We need a Student Assembly led by a President who has shown himself willing to challenge that unacceptable status quo. I'm running for Student Body President because I have the biggest vision for change at this College. I'm very excited about changes in policy that fundamentally alter the relationship between Parkhurst and our student body, because that relationship needs change. Election season is always characterized by a tide of good ideas and good intentions. But we can't stop there.

The Choice is Clear

By Ralph Davies | May 3, 2004

This campaign has certainly been a heated process. Each of the candidates has fired back and forth at one another about platforms and past records. Amidst the debate, the question still remains unclear who would accomplish the goals that really matter on campus. One important quality is the ability to follow through on plans and actually make things happen. This winter, I took charge of the Student Organizations Committee, and I am so proud of the things that we accomplished.
