Goodwin among Montgomery Fellows

By Deborah Bernstein | January 4, 1999

The Kenneth and Harle Montgomery Endowment at Dartmouth will bring a series of presidential biographers to campus Winter term to address the issues of presidential leadership and power at the end of the 20th century. The program was planned before President Bill Clinton's current impeachment proceedings and is not intended to directly address the situation in Washington. "The intent is to take Dartmouth's last Winter and Spring terms of the 20th century and examine how certain presidents in this century have used -- or misused -- the power of their office," said Barbara Gerstner, assistant provost and executive director of the Montgomery Endowment. The format departs from the traditional Montgomery format, where visiting speakers stay at the College to give multiple lectures and interact with students.

Town Planning Board approves Chase Field

By Jess Jacob | November 25, 1998

The Hanover Planning Board conditionally approved the College's proposal to upgrade Chase Field, which is used by the lacrosse and field hockey teams, in a three-hour meeting last night. In an interview late last night, Planning Board Chair Charles Faulkner told The Dartmouth that the College will be able to install artificial turf and foot-candle lighting poles under several restrictions, including the times when lights can be used. The board decided to allow no more than 10 events per year to use the full NCAA lighting power on the artificial turf field after 7 p.m., according to Faulkner. The lower light level for practice can be used only up until 8 p.m.

WebBlitz to move to College web server

By Heather Kofke-Egger | November 24, 1998

WebBlitz, the student-authored program that allows students and alumni to access BlitzMail over the World Wide Web, will soon find a new home on a Computing Services server. The program, created by Dan Scholnick '00 and Dave Latham '01, debuted last spring and is run on a server in Latham's room in New Hampshire residence hall. It was originally housed on the Computer Science Department's server but was moved because it took too much computing time away from other processes, Scholnick said. Computing Services Special Projects Manager Rich Brown said WebBlitz may be moved as early as Winter term onto a secure server in the Kiewit Computation Center. WebBlitz does not currently encrypt passwords or messages.
