Attorneys are now involved in the Phi Delta Alpha fraternity situation, according to Zeev Dansiger, whose son Adam Dansiger '00 wrote the letter to the College that started the investigation which led to the fraternity's derecognition -- however it is still unclear whether a lawsuit is in the works. Zeev Dansiger declined to say whether an actual suit had been filed against the College. College Counsel Sean Gorman said his office has not yet had any contact with the Dansiger family.

College calls Dwyer's problems isolated

By Julia Levy | March 6, 2000

When the Computer Science 4 scandal exploded in February, many students blamed professor Rex Dwyer for not living up to his title, while Dwyer blamed the department, saying it did not give him, a visiting professor, enough support. However, according to department chairs and Dean of the Faculty Ed Berger, the obstacles that Dwyer claims to have faced as a visiting professor are not at all characteristic. Berger said most departments use visiting professors on a regular basis to fill various roles. "They either substitute for faculty on leave, or they may be brought to campus to introduce a new area," he explained. He also noted that in some departments, the professors classified as "visiting" stay on for many years. "This is a unique situation in almost every way," Berger said of the Dwyer's case.

W. icers host UNH, Providence

By Kevin Allen | March 3, 2000

Sometimes, seemingly little mistakes come back to haunt you. While the Dartmouth women's ice hockey team holds an impressive conference record of 16-6-0 and currently sits in third place, they know they could be higher. Uncharacteristic losses to weaker teams such as Niagara and Princeton seemed like mere speed bumps in a stellar season, but now they are more significant since the second place and fifth place teams are separated by only three points in the standings. How does this relate to this weekend's opponents you ask?

Diament overcomes fear of outdoors

By Julia Levy | March 3, 2000

Eli Diament '02, who was elected president of The Dartmouth Outing Club Tuesday, admitted something most people would probably never expect -- he was terrified when he went on his first wilderness expedition at age 14. "It was my first really outdoor experience away from home," the New Jersey native explained. Despite this self-professed fear, outdoor activities have been a major part of Diament's life since he was very young. He recalled that he used to do work out by a stream near his house with his parents when he was little, saying that was his "beginning of loving to play outside." He also worked for the Environmental Commission -- an organization in charge of community-wide environmental development and protection -- from 1990 to 1998. Diament plans to double major in earth sciences and engineering.
