Madison Hughes ’15 captained the U.S. rugby team to a Bowl victory and a ninth-place overall finish at the first installment of the IRB Sevens World Series on Australia’s Gold Coast over the weekend.

|

Amid an ongoing Title IX investigation, Dartmouth is one of several colleges preparing to launch campus climate surveys — questionnaires that aim to gauge the incidence and perceptions of sexual violence, from feelings of safety on campus to experience with specific types of assault.

Student leaders talk sexual assault

|

Sixty student leaders of clubs, sports teams and Greek organizations discussed sexual violence on campus in Collis Common Ground on Saturday as part of Student Assembly’s “It’s On Us” campaign. The campaign, a White House initiative to provide federal support for student-led prevention and awareness efforts, required its partner organizations on each campus — in Dartmouth’s case, Student Assembly — to host a roundtable attended by a range of student groups.

Workshop encourages social justice

|

“This is the year that those / who swim the border’s undertow / and shiver in boxcars / are greeted with trumpets and drums.” So begins a stanza from Martin Espada’s poem “Imagine the Angels of Bread,” which imagines a future where persons who have been historically discriminated against and disadvantaged are rewarded. On Saturday afternoon, 30 students, parents and teachers participated in a Bentley Theater workshop that used Espada’s poem to launch conversations about campus climate.

Distrust spouses, neighbors in ‘Gone Girl’

|

David Fincher’s famous works center around the psychologically perverse, presenting the warpath left behind not by villains donning capes or masks, but by those hiding among us. John Doe (“Se7en” (1995)), Tyler Durden (“Fight Club” (1999)) and the Zodiac killer (“Zodiac” (2007)) are all highly calculating, sadistic and nearly invisible murderers who nihilistically revel in the ensuing chaos. Fincher’s “Gone Girl” (2014) adds another volume to his oeuvre of highly successful thrillers, based of the hit 2012 novel by Gillian Flynn, who also wrote the film’s screenplay. Flynn altered the ending to compel the book’s fans to the theater. I haven’t read the book, which left me blissfully unaware of comparisons and fully gripped by the film.
