Changing the Rules

By Joseph Asch | September 29, 2005

"When the people are unhappy with the government, in America they try to change the government; in the Soviet Union, the government tries to change the people." " Old Soviet joke. At Dartmouth, when the Administration is unhappy with election results, it tries to change the electoral rules. Having lost the last three trustee elections to anti-Administration candidates, the Wright Administration has now responded to these rebukes. However, rather than addressing the fundamental reasons why the petition candidates won their elections, a process has been set in motion to change the way the alumni vote for trustees. The Administration's first step was to look at the detailed results of the trustee elections.

The Mixed Message of Hip-Hop

By Ilya Feoktistov | September 27, 2005

Sadly but luckily, my first awareness of black people and their culture came from hip-hop.

No Understanding in "Guy & Fellow"

By Rachel Zeile | September 26, 2005

To the Editor, While I am fully aware of the benefits of being able to step back and look objectively at what we hold sacred and sincere, I do not think that Friday's "Guy and Fellow" cartoon came even close to an excuse to blaspheme a figure who is, for many people on this campus and in this world, Lord and Savior.
