By Sean Nicholson | August 10, 2007

As the current president of Theta Delta Chi, I would like to take this opportunity to comment on the recent incident between brothers of my house and Kappa Kappa Gamma and the subsequent publicity it has received.

Man Versus Beast

By Brent Kesler | August 7, 2007

To the Editor: After Theta Delta Chi's inexcusable treatment of the women of Kappa Kappa Gamma -- their own guests -- their president had one immediate responsibility: a courageous act of public contrition ("Kappas accuse Theta Delt of harassment," Aug.

Focus on the Real Issue

By Lauren Bennett | August 7, 2007

To the Editor: When an event occurs such as last weeks' between Kappa Kappa Gamma and Theta Delta Chi, it gives a publication the opportunity to turn a troublesome situation into impetus for change in guy-girl dynamics at Dartmouth ("Kappas accuse Theta Delt of harassment," Aug.

1891 Agreement: Agendas Aside

By William Montgomery | August 7, 2007

Mr. Zywicki would have us believe, because he is "not only a lawyer but a professor who has taught contract law for over a decade" that, unless we can compete with his credentials, we ought to sit down and shut up ("Honoring the 1891 Agreement," Aug.

Finding Humor in the Howl

By Joseph Asch | August 3, 2007

To the Editor: Though it is too early to write the history of the petition trustee insurgency, it is not too soon to nominate the top howlers in the debates about trustee elections and the constitution fight. My personal favorite remains Trustee Emeritus Peter Fahey '68's alarmist remark that if last year's constitution were not ratified, our 238-year-old College would enter a "downward death spiral" ("Five Reasons to Vote, and Vote 'Yes,'" Sept.

Honoring the 1891 Agreement

By Todd Zywicki | August 3, 2007

Rhetoric or Real Reform?

By Rick Routhier | July 27, 2007

To the Editor: In his recent guest column Professor Stephen Smith decries the latest "establishment" challenge to alumni rights ("Countering Campaign Charge," July 17). Fortunately, Trustee Smith is now in an excellent position to make a real difference, if he chooses to focus on real issues. Whether he spent $20,000 or $200,000 is not the issue.

YouTube, You Choose

By Tina Praprotnik | July 27, 2007

Just as the first televised debate, the famed 1960 match between Kennedy and Nixon, revolutionized the campaign process by putting candidates on display in millions of American homes, YouTube is once again redefining the role of democracy.

Secondhand Smoke

A call for cooperation

To the Editor: I was surprised this morning to read Stephen Smith's rather charged opinion ("Countering Campaign Charges," July 17). Now that Smith is a trustee, I expect that he will represent all of us.
