Computer phones on the way

By Laura Quayle | September 26, 2003

Innovative internet phones offered to incoming Dartmouth freshmen garnered national attention this week, but many Dartmouth students, including freshmen, remain unaware of the new technology that would allow them to use their computers as telephones free of charge. These internet phones are made possible by converged data and phone lines and will enable Dartmouth students to make unlimited long-distance and local phone calls from their computers, though international calls are limited to Canada. The system, which will function on both the wired and wireless networks on campus, is made possible by "voice over internet protocol," or VoIP.

Volleyball falls to Wildcats, 3-0

By Ben Reed | September 26, 2003

In the first volleyball match ever to be broadcast on radio in New Hampshire, the Big Green women's volleyball team (5-3, 0-0 Ivy) only came up short on the scoreboard. In a Tuesday night intrastate battle, the team fell to the Wildcats of the University of New Hampshire (6-9) in straight sets (19-30, 31-33, 18-30) at Lundholm Gymnasium. Shorthanded from the start with an injury to powerful right side Anna Jenkins '05, and facing what was probably the most skilled and intimidating competition they will encounter all season, the Big Green's performance was not accurately represented by the final score. "We played the best volleyball in the second half of the first game and the second game that we've played all season," said opposite Lindsay Sheffield '04, who had a monster game, leading the team with 11 kills, at a .348 hitting percentage, and 6 blocks. "What hurt us in the long run was just a couple of points that got away due to lack of communication.

Windows causes network lag

By Laura McGann | September 26, 2003

Supplanting fears that viruses would infect Dartmouth's network this term, a Windows XP laptop configuration causing an internet connection failure around campus has instead become the first major network problem of the year. Bill Brawley , director of network services, believes that the difficulties some students are having connecting to the internet may be caused by the same "bridging" problem that occurred in October 2002 when the problem caused major internet disturbances throughout campus. "If people are having congestion on the network or they aren't able to get connections, it's probably because they are seeing a bridging event in their buildings," Brawley said. A bridging problem occurs when at least one Windows XP laptop is used for both wireless and wired network use, while the "network bridging" option is enabled.

By Michael Herman | September 26, 2003

It was free, it was easy, and its name made students feel helpful. But in an era of tightening budgets and rapidly increasing usage, College administrators say Greenprint is no longer green, and, effective this term, it's also not entirely free. Under a new plan aimed at cutting costs and waste, each student receives a $30 credit for use at GreenPrint.
