A Misandrist Mistake

By Julian Sarkar | February 22, 2010

As I read "Too Few Good Men" (Feb. 22) by Blair Sullivan '10, I came upon the statement, "males have never been the victims of systematic discrimination." Such a boldly stated assertion must be true, even if it invalidates the gross injustice that men have faced historically and continue to face today.

By The Dartmouth Opinion Staff | February 21, 2010

Friday's Verbum Ultimum addressed some campus groups' responses to the recent budget cuts. What do you think the role of students, faculty and other community members should be at this time?

Votin' Time

By Suril Kantaria | February 17, 2010

President Barack Obama's Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel once said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste." The announcement of the new Hanover Police alcohol policy unleashed nothing short of a crisis for Dartmouth's Greek life, which represents a large segment of the Dartmouth student body.

21st Century Poetry

By Brendan Woods | February 14, 2010

Watching the Super Bowl last weekend, I was reminded of our preoccupation with technology. Six high tech cameras were used to film the action, the game was broadcast online in 10 different languages and the halftime show stage lights were almost amazing enough to make me forget about The Who's lethargic performance. Indeed, the recession does not seem to have dampened the technological output of recent months.
