Cook says elections lacked real issues

By Deborah Bernstein | November 19, 1998

Independent political analyst Charles Cook called 1998 "a rollercoaster ride" that carried voters up and down but ultimately deposited them in their original position in a speech yesterday in 2 Rockefeller Center. While even up to a year ago pundits were predicting outcomes similar to November's actual numbers, the Lewinsky scandal made differing predictions of voter results common throughout the last nine months. Cook called Nov.

Please Dispose of Unwanted Copies of the Dartmouth Review to Clean Hallways

By Evan Hoffman | November 19, 1998

To the Editor: It seems that every time a certain publication, namely the Dartmouth Review, is delivered to students' rooms, many students who apparently don't like the paper simply leave it in front of their doors for days, sometimes weeks on end, I assume until the custodian of the building goes around and throws them all away. I understand and respect that many people do not agree with the views expressed by the Dartmouth Review, but that is no reason to litter the buildings with it.

By Wendy Yu | November 19, 1998

Prospective Dartmouth students can get a taste of what it's like to attend the College through the new online tour -- they can see what the campus is like and get the experience of spending precious hours of the day on the Internet. As if students needed any more excuses to spend time staring at their computer monitors, the Admissions Office offers a new on-line toy: a virtual tour of campus, also known as "D-Tour."

Race Relations Should Not Be an Issue

By Etoile Pinder | November 19, 1998

There's a photo from my fourth birthday party taped to my bedroom wall here at Dartmouth. In it are 14 little black children and one little blond girl, all giggling and wearing party hats, one older white woman and a number of older black women. I'm the little blond girl. The photo is a symbol of the perspective I hold towards the issue of inter-racial interactions.

Assembly earmarks programming funds

By Brad Russo | November 18, 1998

After a lengthy debate at its meeting last night the Student Assembly voted to earmark $1,000 in each of the next two terms for events the Assembly chooses to co-sponsor with other campus organizations. The resolution instructs the Assembly's Student Organizations Committee to select one event from the applicants received by student groups each term to refer to the general Assembly. It is directed that special emphasis will be given to events which involve more than one student group and attract a large segment of the campus community. Much of the debate focused on whether this resolution would tie up $2,000 of the Assembly's funds and if these fund allocations would actually increase multi-group events. "I'm not a big fan of the 'if you build it they will come' philosophy," Assembly member Teresa Knoedler '00 said. Also voiced was a concern that co-sponsorship might politicize Assembly support for organizations and destroy support for the Assembly from organizations rejected for the funds. Other members felt the resolution would allow more events to occur on campus and increase the Assembly's presence and support from other organizations. Assembly co-sponsorship has been a topic of heated division on the Assembly in recent years.

This Thursday night, 100 students plan to sleep out in cardboard shelters on Baker lawn. With temperatures dropping and our first snowfall this week, you're probably curious about why we will be doing such a thing.
