By Brian Fleming | September 30, 1996

True Individualism

By Abiola Lapite | September 30, 1996

You've heard it all before. About how Dartmouth students are lacking in individualism. About how they all dress alike and speak alike.

Columnists' Photos Should Not Appear in The D

By Kenji Hosokawa | September 30, 1996

I was confounded by the column "A Picture's Worth a Thousand Words" [September 26], in which Jennifer Parkinson claimed that the columnists who do not want their photographs to appear in The Dartmouth are unprepared to "stand behind their opinions." Ms. Parkinson suggested that if the no-photograph position were taken to its logical end, the class or even first name of columnists should also not appear in the newspaper because any such information might induce the reader to presume unjustifiably about the opinions of the columnist.

The program aims to merge students' academic and social lives in the residence cluster by facilitating interaction between faculty advisers and the 135 freshmen and 100 upperclass students living in the cluster.

Programming Board seeks to make impact on social scene

By Erin Loback | September 30, 1996

Seeking to improve social options at Dartmouth, the Programming Board kicked off some of its new activities this weekend with a revamped Friday Night Dance Party and a comedy show. The board also has plans in progress for a daily events bulletin and a coffee house in addition to continuing many of its activities from last year. Linda Kennedy, director of student activities, said the reinstitution of the weekly Friday Night Dance Club was one of the Programming Board's more significant additions. Programming Board Co-Chair Matt Ellis '97 said the former Friday Night Dance Club died out in 1995 because attendance dwindled. She said it was held in Webster Hall for a while, but Webster was too large a venue for the event. Shauna Brown '99, who co-chairs the dance club committee, said the Programming Board allots the funds and the space for the party, and a co-sponsor group is in charge of setting up, getting decorations and handling the publicity. "The purpose of having different groups co-sponsor it is so it doesn't get stale," Kennedy said.

C Says, P Says

By Carolyn Wachsman | September 30, 1996

Food. We eat it every day. Some people are pickier than others. Some students will inhale anything, while others are overly particular about what they will allow to come in contact with their palettes.

Dartmouth Appreciation

By Cara Abercrombie | September 30, 1996

After three years in Hanover, my awed, appreciative, freshman-year impression of Dartmouth has since developed into the cynical perspective of one who envisions the campus only in the framework of hum-drum everyday life.

Football squeaks by Lehigh

By Kevin Demoff | September 30, 1996

While it may not have been the efficient dismantling of a Patriot League opponent, all that mattered when Dartmouth boarded the bus home on Saturday was that the Big Green had earned a 21-14 victory over the Lehigh Engineers to improve their record to 2-0 overall. It was a vision of last year's victories, trying to run the ball at every opportunity on offense while the defense was stingy giving up yards and in taking away the ball, with the offense converting turnovers into touchdowns.

DFS reveals similarities in two films

By Keith Zorn | September 30, 1996

The Dartmouth Film Society's Fall term series continued on Friday with a triple feature that included "Manhunter," a film which is now best known as a precursor and model for "Silence of the Lambs" (1991). Though there are minor differences in characterization and tone, in their story lines the two films are essentially the same: a psychopathic and cannibalistic serial killer is pursued by a young F.B.I.

Lone Pine Deli, Changes to Collis Cafe Disappoint

By Patrick L. Craven | September 27, 1996

To the Editor: What a disappointment it was to walk into Collis Wednesday, the first day of classes, and discover how inept Dining Services has proven itself to be once again. It was heartening to hear that I was not the only student perturbed by the changes to Collis, which was once the choicest eating establishment during the lunch hours.

They had all summer to prepare for the biggest game of the year, but having finally beaten Penn, the Big Green football team must shift its focus away from the celebration of beating an Ivy powerhouse and focus on another team from Pennsylvania, Lehigh. Dartmouth travels to take on the Engineers today.
