Prospies arrested on Friday

By Zachary Goldstein | April 28, 2003

Just past midnight last Friday, two prospective students in town for the Dimensions program for accepted students were found under the influence of alcohol and in possession of alcohol by Safety and Security. Because the students are not members of the Dartmouth community, Safety and Security contacted Hanover Police, who arrested the students on charges of unlawful possession, according to Hanover Police Chief Nick Giaccone. The students were held in Grafton County jail until an admissions officer from the College came to bail them out, according to Giaccone. The unlawful possession charges carry an option of an alcohol awareness diversion program or a mandatory minimum $250 fine for first-time offenders. According to Assistant Director of Admissions Chris Bradt, there have been problems with alcohol in previous years during the Dimensions program, though no prospective students have been arrested before. This year, about 400 high school seniors admitted to the College participated in Dimensions in advance of the May 1 decision deadline. "This happens when people are brought on this campus despite attempts to educate them," Bradt said.

By Alison Schmauch | April 28, 2003

Far from dying a natural death, Soviet dictator Josef Stalin was murdered by his colleagues for his anti-American and anti-Jewish stances, Jonathan Brent, the executive editor of Yale University Press, asserted Friday afternoon during a speech. Brent cited a medical report written in July 1953 after Stalin's death indicating that he likely died of warfarin poisoning. Warfarin is an anticoagulant, commonly used as a blood thinner to treat the victims of heart attacks.
