The Death of the Dinner Date

By Zachary Gottlieb | April 16, 2008

In his column "In Search of Intellectualism," (Apr. 12, 2007), Tom Atwood '08 makes a provocative point: "I don't think Dartmouth students are particularly creative or innovative with their thinking, and, as a result, conversations become stale and intellectual apathy ensues." How is this possible in a culture of 30% valedictorians, 15% salutatorians and hundreds of other students who never drank in high school?

Beyond Paying It Forward

By Alex Caron | April 16, 2008

Letter to the Editor: College Under Fire

By Merle Adelman | April 11, 2008

To the Editor: As I watch this spring's Alumni Association election from the sidelines, I can't help but observe that it is a contest between two political parties: a pro-College slate led by John Mathias '69 dedicated to ending the litigation launched by the current association's executive committee against Dartmouth and a pro-lawsuit petition slate led by Michael Murphy '61.

Pay It Forward

By Nina Maja Bergmar | April 9, 2008

While many of us arrive as freshmen with an undying passion for community service and nonprofit work, we are quickly brainwashed with the Ivy elite's capitalist expectations: Our learning experience is limited to the how-to-become-successful indoctrination that takes place within the Dartmouth bubble, protecting us from real life.
