Seniors are leaving in midst of Initiative debate

By Andrew Allport | June 13, 1999

Being a Dartmouth College graduate has meant many things in the College's history. Familiar stereotypes, such as the hard-drinking all-males' school, or the exhausted "Animal House" comparison have been part of an evolving image of Dartmouth and her sons and daughters. And when the College changes, especially the kind of changes planned in the Trustees' Initiative, the image of a graduate of the College will change as well.

Civil discourse report released

By Kathrin Weston | May 27, 1999

Although students hold a generally positive view on the current state of discourse and interaction at Dartmouth, the numbers were split along racial and gender lines, according to the annual report recently released by the College's Civil Discourse Committee. During the Winter Term, the committee asked students to answer survey questions about how much they feel they are respected in campus discussions and what they think of the state of campus discourse in general. Differences between the sexes and between students of color and white students were pronounced in responses to survey questions addressing respect and support. Twenty percent of white students said they found themselves frequently offended by campus behavior, while nearly twice as many students of color expressed this feeling. Almost 20 percent of students of color and 12 percent of white students responded that their opinions are often not treated with respect at the College. Surprisingly, twice as many men as women responded that their views are often or very often not treated respectfully. Men and women also responded differently when asked about the importance of convincing others to change their views.
