By Roy Small and Jamil Batcha | February 26, 2004

The clubbers visited Babson Friday night where they were welcomed by a hostile, sold-out arena.

By Liz Yepsen | February 25, 2004

A Dean of the Libraries search committee meeting designed to gather student input into the hiring of a new dean attracted no students and no input Tuesday night. Members of the search committee were present to field questions and suggestions, but no students arrived to offer feedback.

SA forges plans for Lone Pine

By Lizzie Wise | February 25, 2004

Prompted by student input from a Student Assembly campus-wide BlitzMail survey, Student Body President Janos Marton '04 has joined forces with Dartmouth Dining Services and the Collis Center in an attempt to cater to students' eating demands. Based on 610 student responses, the survey results indicated that a noticeable majority of students prefer a late-night snack-food option upstairs in Collis rather than downstairs. However, Lone Pine Tavern's loyal customers should not fret, the survey said. The report concluded that a compromise between a modified Lone Pine Tavern and a modified Big Green Bean would be reached.

S&S, police outline alcohol regulations

By Matthew Kelly | February 25, 2004

College and Hanover Police Department officials held an information session Tuesday evening to explain alcohol laws and regulations and try to dispel student confusion about the subject. Captain Frank Moran of the Hanover Police Department, Director of Safety and Security Proctor Harry Kinn and Director of Undergraduate Student Affairs Marcia Kelly spoke at the event, held Tuesday at Sigma Delta sorority. The event's main purpose was to educate students on their rights regarding alcohol, in an effort to create more "informed consumers," as Kinne jokingly termed it. A major concern for many students in attendance was the state's relatively new internal possession law. The New Hampshire underage drinking law was broadened last year to include alcohol present in the body under the category of "possession of alcohol." Alcohol possession is measured by either obvious intoxication or a .02 blood alcohol content.

Colleges consider applicant interest

By Zachary Goldstein | February 25, 2004

As the fight to get into the nation's top colleges intensifies, high-school students are embracing an unusual tactic to differentiate themselves from the rest of the pack: letting schools know they are interested through regular contact with admissions offices and visits to campus. Many schools have started taking a student's "demonstrated interest" into account when making admissions decisions, giving preference to applicants who have visited the school or kept in contact with its admissions office. A study conducted by the National Association for College Admission Counseling recently found that 56 percent of the 595 institutions surveyed said they considered a student's demonstrated interest a factor in admissions decisions. Dartmouth, though, was not among those institutions that said "demonstrated interest" gave applicants a leg up on the competition.
