Safety and Security, police plan for weekend

By Julia Levy | May 14, 1999

This Green Key Weekend Safety and Security plans to continue enforcing College policy as it does on normal weekends, while being particularly cautious due to the nature of the weekend. According to Safety and Security officer Mark Lancaster, who has been at Dartmouth for 15 years, there is usually an increase in alcohol violations and other types of offenses over Green Key, but he said the increase is not extreme. "When I first came here, they were a lot crazier," he said. Lancaster attributes the decrease in violations to an increase in alcohol awareness and a change in the nature of the students attending the College. But he said more problems than usual are to be expected, because Green Key is one of the big weekends, and more non-students than usual will be on campus. Lancaster said Safety and Security officers will be on bike patrol, cruiser patrol and foot patrol until about 4 a.m.

Alumni reflect on Green Key

By Julia Levy | May 14, 1999

Whether they were roasting stolen pigs, hunting down women, drinking alcohol or just working, alumni interviewed by The Dartmouth said they had strong memories of what Green Key Weekend was like during their careers at the College. Alumni who attended the College before it became coeducational in 1972 said they had vivid memories of Green Key - perhaps because the weekend was a drastic change from day-to-day life on campus. Jack Nevison '66 said he figured out early in his career at Dartmouth that the dating scene was not for him.

Editor's Note

By Sarah Rubenstein | May 14, 1999

It's that time of the year again. Snow and cold winter weather are distant memories, the sun is out, the grass is growing (or at least it has been planted) and the campus is ready to celebrate. It seems like a long time since we've had one of these big weekends.

Arias criticizes U. S. military policy

By Omer Ismail | May 13, 1999

Former Costa Rican President and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Oscar Arias criticized the United States' quick use of military force to negotiate world settlements during a press conference at Rockefeller Center yesterday afternoon. A renowned champion of peace and demilitarization, Arias blamed the world's military and economic superpower, the United States, for not exercising moral leadership. "I believe this is a war-loving country," he said of the United States. Arias criticized the United States for not using diplomatic efforts to resolve world conflicts, saying the United States never really tried diplomatic solutions with Saddam Hussein or Slobodan Milosevic.
