An Unfair Generalization of Frats

By Max Bryer | February 22, 2007

Should we get rid of the fraternity system? According to the harshest detractors, fraternities and the environment they foster are the principle contributors to sexual assault at Dartmouth and removing or reforming them significantly would do away with the problem.

Nothing unwholesome about sex at Dartmouth

By Michael Amico | February 22, 2007

To the Editor: I disagree with Matthew Nolan '07 ("Sex: Not at all Like Steak," Feb. 21) that "sometimes the reason we do not talk about certain issues is that they are not acceptable." As a senior fellow writing a book on sexual expression, I would argue that those professing more "wholesome" brands of sexuality, like Nolan, are the reason others keep their more "perverse" sexual acts and desires to themselves.

Thirsty for a Reasonable Alcohol Policy

By Joseph Asch | February 16, 2007

The College's war on alcohol continues unabatedly; zero tolerance seems to be the order of the day. Over the past year, six Greek organizations have been put on probation for violating the cumbersome rules laid down by the Social Event Management Procedures bureaucracy, and hundreds of students have been picked up by Safety and Security or Hanover Police patrols and then disciplined by the College or the New Hampshire courts. However, does anyone seriously believe that the SEMP rules are limiting alcohol consumption on campus? Either today's students were specially selected for admission because they can get hammered on one cup of Keystone, or perhaps it's time to accept that Dartmouth students also focus their brilliance on getting around SEMP's regulations. This cat-and-mouse game would have humor value if Dartmouth's harsh policies did not do lasting harm to the lives of young men and women, and if enforcement weren't so painfully expensive.
