By Tim Mosso | November 4, 2002

The Hanover Police Department confirmed 12 incidents involving arrests over the weekend, 10 of which occurred Friday night on the Green.

Dartmouth students nervous about increasingly competitive graduate school admissions and a tight job market often take classes under Dartmouth's Non-Recording Option to keep their grade-point average as high as possible.

Apathy harms youth voter turnout

By Cole Entress | November 4, 2002

Editor's note: This is the sixth in a series of articles chronicling the New Hampshire congressional campaigns. Despite a Democrat-Republican face-off that could change the balance of power in both houses of Congress, a trend of low student-voter turnout both at Dartmouth and throughout the nation is unlikely to change, according to political pundits. Though the contested issues in the upcoming election range from abortion rights to boosting the sagging economy, candidates' efforts to mobilize youth voters have largely been fruitless.

The Dartmouth Who?

By Tai Antoine | November 1, 2002

You're too sensitive!" Why, because I don't like the fact that my identity is plastered on a T-shirt or jacket being worn by someone who knows nothing about me? "We're paying tribute; you should consider it an honor." Apparently, I should feel honored that people treat my identity like any other "mascot," like mammals, insects and other animals. Since when is it OK to have a person or group of people to be mascots?

Homecoming Issues

By Cal Newport | November 1, 2002

Fall has arrived, and as Martha Stewart would say, "it's a good thing." The signs of the season are all around us: the leaves are changing color, the '06 girls are realizing that half the campus already owns that J-Crew sweater-jacket they were so proud of buying, and humor columnists are adding strained Martha Stewart references to their pieces. Yet to Dartmouth students, fall means something even more.

Field rushing declines under College condemnation

By Alison Schmauch | November 1, 2002

While small numbers of Dartmouth freshmen continue to rush the field during the annual Homecoming game, the practice appears to have waned considerably since its official prohibition in 1986. The tradition originated in the 1950s, when large groups of freshmen ran out onto the field after halftime to form the numbers of their year.

Strong Big Green faces tough Crimson opposition

By Elliot Olshansky | November 1, 2002

When looking ahead to the Big Green football team's Homecoming matchup with defending Ivy League champion Harvard on Saturday at Memorial Field, there's good news, and then there's good news. Good news: With wins over Yale, Holy Cross, and Columbia, Dartmouth (3-3, 2-1 Ivy) is riding a three-game winning streak, the team's first since 1997. More good news: At 4-2 (3-0 Ivy), this year's Crimson squad is hardly the unstoppable juggernaut that went undefeated in 2001 and came back from a 21-0 halftime deficit to beat Dartmouth, 31-21, in Cambridge last year. Despite all this good news, however, the defending Ivy League champions are still no pushover, as the Crimson is tied with Pennsylvania for first place in the Ancient Eight after defeating Cornell, Brown and Princeton. Harvard's offense is led by sophomore quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has a 143.79 quarterback rating, the second best in the Ivy League.

Unique design, careful building ensure safe bonfire

By Richard Lazarus | November 1, 2002

What impresses Steve Erickson, assistant director of physical education and recreation, most about the bonfire is not the 35-foot height of the structure or the fact that it is built in only a few days -- although Erickson supervises that effort -- or even the moment when the fire collapses about 40 minutes after being lit, sending a stream of ash and sparks in to the air, beautifully lit by the flames below.
