Dartmouth women’s ice hockey, scoreless through the first two periods, exploded for four goals in the third period to sink no. 5 Harvard University, 4-2, on Saturday at Thompson Arena, extending its own win streak to four and severing Harvard’s 10-game win streak in the process.

Men’s hockey drops two games in disappointing weekend

By Gayne Kalustian | January 19, 2015

The Dartmouth men’s ice hockey team dropped a pair of home games against St. Lawrence University and Clarkson University last weekend. After an impressive stretch of hockey during the winter interim period, the Big Green has run into some trouble finding its rhythm again after tying with the University of New Hampshire two weeks ago.

Students stage protest prior to MLK events

By Emilia Baldwin | January 15, 2015

While official programming for the College’s social justice themed celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. officially begins today, about 40 students joined in a protest in Baker-Berry Library last night, chanting “black lives matter, we can’t breathe.” The protest comes before a lecture and programming that will address the events surrounding the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. and general issues of social justice and civil rights.

When Graduation Brings Uncertainty

By Priya Ramaiah | January 15, 2015

Three weeks before graduation, Brazilian student Guilherme Ferraz ’14 was faced with an unthinkable setback. His employer-to-be had rescinded his job offer on the grounds that it was unable to sponsor his H1B visa process, the fees for which can often cost an employer upwards of $2,000. Without time to find an appropriate job or internship before his student visa ran out, Ferraz had to leave the United States.

A New Year's in a Rickshaw

By Caren Duane | January 15, 2015

Devoid of sparklers, Anderson Cooper and Martinelli’s, New Year’s Eve 2014 was unlike any other for Lisa Luo ’15. Instead of watching the ball drop from the comfort of her living room in Boston, Lisa rang in the new year in a rickshaw hurtling through Beijing’s congested streets. The closed tin box pulled by a guy on a motorcycle made for a strange and claustrophobic celebration of the New Year. Luckily, the rickshaw had one small, plastic window for Lisa to gaze out.

Can A Liberal Arts College Go Global?

By Victoria Nelsen | January 15, 2015

Since John Sloan Dickey’s tenure, Dartmouth has emphasized both the global nature of its programming and coursework as well as the quality of its international students. These efforts certainly make sense. It’s no secret that a modern education demands an understanding of the world beyond the United States’ borders, and it would be foolish not to attempt to attract the very best students, no matter where they happen to be born.

Fridays with Marian

By Marian Lurio | January 15, 2015

As I’m sure you already know, this past Sunday was the Golden Globes, an awards show where a bunch of white people get up and congratulate a different bunch of white people. You might be surprised to hear that I don’t actually watch awards shows.

Boots and Rallies

By Aaron Pellowski | January 15, 2015

For the purpose of diverting readerly ire from the batch of complaints I am about to make, I should confess that I am not an anthropologist. I am also not a sociologist, meteorologist, historian, geologist or meteorologist. In light of these deficiencies, I suppose a lot of this will come across as ignorant riffing on a rather pedestrian pet peeve

A Tale of Two Centers

By Michael Qian | January 15, 2015

The Dickey Center for International Understanding and Rockefeller Center for Public Policy, founded in 1982 and 1983 respectively, are both young in the College’s storied timeline. Even down to their close launch dates, the two centers seem like they are born out of a similar instinct — an enthusiastic desire to bridge classroom learning with hands-on, policy-focused work.

By Sam Forstner | January 15, 2015

Yet after just 535 students enrolled in off-campus programs in 2012-2013 — the latest year data is available — participation in off-campus programs has dropped 10 percent from the almost 600 students who studied abroad in 2008.

Editor's Note

By Charlie Rafkin | January 15, 2015

Hey Mirror readers, This week, The Mirror turns its attention to Dartmouth’s reach outside Hanover. On my foreign study program in Paris last winter, the extent to which I flaunted my background as a Chicagoan quickly became a joke among my friends on the FSP.
