Inside the Locker Room

By Phoebe Hoffmann | May 26, 2014

Now that the Celebration of Excellence is behind us and most of the spring sports have started their off-season training, I’ve realized that this is the end of many Dartmouth athletes’ careers in sports. These seniors have trained for thousands of hours, taken countless bus rides and airplane trips, eaten an ungodly amount of peanut butter sandwiches and experienced a blur of locker room memories in just four years at the College. I can almost guarantee that if you asked any athlete in the Class of 2014 about the day they officially found out that they would represent the Big Green, they could recount the rush of feelings as if it were yesterday.

A View from the Woods

By Kelly Wood | May 26, 2014

I’ve enjoyed being able to share my stories and thoughts through my column this spring — perhaps more so than the editors who quickly became aware of my chronic procrastination. In my mind, Dartmouth athletics have a permanence thatcomforts student-athletes and fans alike. Part of this permanence is the longstanding history of Big Green sports. Football at Dartmouth dates back to 1876. Women’s sports are a more recent development, but several teams have seen remarkable success. This results in generations of alumni who care deeply about their sports and about Dartmouth.

Better Than They Found Me

By Felicia Schwartz | May 22, 2014

You should aim to leave someone as good or better than you found them. In my four-year relationship with Dartmouth and The Dartmouth, I think I can say I am better than they found me.

Pure Poetry

By Amelia Acosta | May 22, 2014

In just how infinitely and minutely different everyone else’s spaces and moments are, they are infinitely and minutely beautiful. Just as I will never lose mine, they will never lose theirs. That’s how we’ll never lose Dartmouth, and that is pure poetry.

Moving the Roots

By Tyler Bradford | May 22, 2014

My satisfaction from my time at Dartmouth is not going to come from the doors of success it opened for me, but from my knowing that I came here and gave this place the deepest part of myself when I felt more vulnerable than ever.

By Seanie Civale | May 22, 2014

It may be silly to believe that in this unfathomably big universe, leaving this place is a huge deal. But I’ve had a lot of good things here that I don’t want to let die. I’m afraid of forgetting them.

In Case You Were Wondering

By Katie Sinclair | May 22, 2014

When I think about my uncertain future, my mind goes back to what is the most quintessential game of Dartmouth, the game of champions: pong. When you’re down to a half, you can’t lose on a serve, so just keep trying.
