Albright addresses lasting threat of nuclear proliferation

By Jacques Herbert | April 22, 2005

With memories of the invasion of Iraq and its supposed weapons of mass destruction still fresh in Americans' minds, President of the Institute for Science and International Security David Albright came to Dartmouth on Thursday afternoon to discuss how Americans must confront other threats of nuclear proliferation with a post-Iraq mentality. In introducing Albright, Director of the John Sloan Dickey Center Kenneth Yalowitz, cited Albright's personal experience in dealing with nuclear proliferation as the former ambassador to Georgia from 1998 to 2001. "Every day we were getting reports of missing materials -- things that could be used in dirty bombs," Yalowitz said.

By Linzi Sheldon | April 22, 2005

Many prospective students have more on their minds besides evaluating classes or sneaking into fraternity basements -- gifted middle-class students must weigh whether attending a top-tier college like Dartmouth is worth the loans their parents will be taking out for that name brand to adorn their sweatshirts and eventually their college diplomas. High school seniors begin the financial aid process by filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid form, from which they receive estimated family contribution numbers.

New eatery soon to supplant Panda House

By Gus Lûbin | April 21, 2005

Following impositions from its landlord, the Panda House restaurant may change its name and ownership as soon as next week. Landlord Jim Rubens recommended that the restaurant's owners sell their business after restaurant employees faced their third set of credit card fraud allegations in five years. In the most recent scandal, an unidentified fugitive employee used a "skimming device" to steal a total of more $10,000 from over 20 Panda House customers. While no deal has been finalized, Rubens suggested that talks with potential purchasers of the restaurant and the Hanover Park mall ownership were well underway. "A change in ownership will require agreement between the current ownership, the new ownership, and me.

Drug charges leveled against senior after police search frat

By Phil Salinger | April 20, 2005

Hanover police arrested Kyle Sherlock '05, a member of The Tabard coed fraternity, and 27-year-old Manchester, N.H., resident Melissa Lardiere early this week on felony charges of possession of a controlled or narcotic drug with the intent to distribute. Lardiere is an employee of the Dartmouth Outdoor Programs office and Sherlock's girlfriend, Tabard President Michael Guzman '06 said. The arrests come after police executed a search warrant at Tabard in the early hours of April 5. During the search, they found a significant amount of marijuana in a room shared by Sherlock and Lardiere, Hanover police chief Nicholas Giaccone said. The Tabard held a get-together for members and invited guests the night of April 4, the day the house hoisted a sign on its front commemorating that 69 days remained until graduation. At the party, a fire alarm went off because of cigarette smoke on the second floor, calling the Hanover fire and police departments to the scene, Guzman said. After about a half hour, the fire department left, but Hanover police told Guzman that they had reason to stay, he said. At that point, police allowed everyone back into Tabard, but did not allow anyone above the first floor. About 40 minutes later, police reopened the entire house except for room 10, Sherlock's room, Guzman said. Police told him that one of the officers noticed evidence of illicit substances in plain view in room 10, while scouring the house for any fires, according to Guzman. A police officer sat in the doorway forbidding entrance to room 10 for the next two hours until Hanover police captain Frank Moran and another officer arrived with a search warrant, Guzman said. Guzman expressed skepticism late Monday evening about the evidence that compelled police to seek a search warrant. He said he was unsure the evidence had been in plain sight, because the police refused to let Guzman accompany them on their search. "I asked specifically, 'Can I go up there with you?

A look back at Hildreth's legacy

By Lizzie Wise | April 19, 2005

Student Assembly powerhouse senior Julia Hildreth's uncanny ability to negotiate between the student body and the administration has led to a bevy of signature Hildreth projects, yet has left some students feeling out of touch with the Assembly. During the past three years -- as Vice President during Janos Marton '04's first term and as President this year -- Hildreth has initiated and followed through upon numerous student programs, services, publications and policy changes.
