Make Parkhurst Public

|

Whether they realize it or not, all Dartmouth students have great interest vested in College policy -- $190,000 worth of interest.

Work-Study Woes

|

"Classism" is defined by Webster's Dictionary as "prejudice against or in favor of people belonging to a particular socioeconomic class." This College, in all of its endeavors to make itself a symbol of equality, with all of its tirades against the perceived epidemics of hate crimes, with all of its attempts to finally triumph over its sexism, has overlooked one of its most atrocious anathemas -- its blatant classism. Over the past term, I have been applying to all of the jobs that meet my criteria of qualifications for a "good" job: resume builder, non-hectic work environment, decent pay.

Skipping Class: Priceless

|

Have you ever skipped class before? Most college students have, and often with good reason. Maybe you overslept, maybe you had to study for an exam or maybe there was an all-day marathon of "Man vs.


Opinion

Thanks, Safety and Security

|

The idea to write this came to me during my last ride in a Safety and Security cruiser. Most of my first eight terms here saw my wild imagination produce myriad conspiratorial metaphors to describe the antagonism, produced by the simple fact of drinking on campus, inherent in the student-Safety and Security relationship.

The SA Farce

|

It is official. The Student Assembly is the most worthless organization on campus. However, considering the oh-so-juicy expos on the rebel faction led by former Academic Committee Chair Adam Shpeen '07, the weak defense of his presidency by our President Tim Andreadis '07, and Andreadis' secret manifesto calling for a frat-free world, our worthless and lame Assembly hasn't been this terrible since, well, about 1769. Flashback to two years ago when Assembly President Julia Hildreth '05 got funding to buy new BlitzMail terminals for the school.

In the defense of Smith '88

To the Editor: In its last editorial, The Dartmouth Editorial Board wrote, "no institutionalized speech code exists at Dartmouth" ("Reviewing the Rhetoric of a Potential Trustee," Jan.


Opinion

A Third Party in 2008?

|

Imagine that it is early 2008 and the presidential primaries are in full swing. Iowa and New Hampshire are, however briefly, the centers of national media attention.


Opinion

An Assembly Divided Cannot Stand

|

Inside and outside of Student Assembly, students have long been clamoring for reform. Changes addressing the organization's lacking validity and significance are indeed necessary, but the Assembly must be unified before they are attempted.



Opinion

Show me your platform, win my vote

|

To the Editor: In its previous editorial, The Dartmouth criticizes much of the platform of petition trustee candidate Stephen Smith '88, while praising one plank ("Reviewing the Rhetoric of a Potential Trustee," Jan.


Opinion

Reform, Not Impeachment

|

As a Student Assembly class representative who thinks the Assembly is not pursuing worthwhile initiatives and who probably disagrees with Assembly President Tim Andreadis '07 on most issues, personal and political, I do not believe there is good reason to impeach him.
