Lessons from Durham

By Frank Gado | April 20, 2007

To the Editor: Bravo, Michael Kreicher '08, for your reminder of the importance of the presumption of innocence ("By Clear and Convincing Evidence," April 17).

To the Editor: We mourn the deaths of students and faculty at Virginia Tech ("Virginia Tech gunman kills 32 in bloodbath," April 17). It is appropriate and natural that we should do so.

Misplaced Intellectualism

By David Glovsky | April 20, 2007

Tom Atwood '08 wrote last week of our fair College as a place "where intellectualism is dead" ("In Search of Intellectualism," April 12). I think Atwood has a point, but I do not believe intellectualism at Dartmouth is dead.

The Immigration Solution

By Nathan Bruschi | April 19, 2007

Although debate over the subject has significantly died down in recent weeks, immigration reform remains one of the most important domestic policy issues of our time. When President Bush introduced his "guest worker program" during a speech in January 2004, it was met with scorn both from conservatives, because they found it too close to amnesty, and immigrant activists, because they thought it was not close enough.

Needing Proaction in Congress

By Zachary Hyatt | April 19, 2007

I write from the capital of progressive proaction: San Francisco. Each month thousands of bicyclists, who call themselves the Critical Mass Movement, halt the major thoroughfares of San Francisco's beautiful city streets - without organization, and only for the purpose of advancing bicyclists' rights.

Go Figure... Skate

By Zachary Gottlieb | April 18, 2007

"Nationals." No, the word's got nothing to do with a hilariously terrible national baseball team from D.C., or how far I got each year in the Matzah Eating Championships until my paralyzing peristalsis injury during my first kiss. In a glorious display of grace, perseverance, and incredible skill, our Dartmouth figure skating team took the NATIONAL title.

Last week, Tom Atwood '08 lamented the absence of intellectualism at Dartmouth outside of the classroom ("In Search of Intellectualism," April 12).
