Give War a Chance

By Michael Weiss | April 21, 2003

Sam Stein '04 alleges that a "Smells Like Mujahideen Spirit" marketing campaign was deceptively used by the president to sell us war in Iraq ("The Godfather," Tuesday, April 15, 2003). It's amazing to me that someone who makes use of the word "euphemism" in an column could, in the same column, call the overthrow of a fascist dictator a "business transaction" brokered on the equity of Sept.

Is North Korea Ready to Talk?

By Kevin Carmody | April 21, 2003

Amid the news channels' constant coverage of liberated Iraqis dancing in the streets celebrating the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime, there has been comparatively little notice of an important development on the Korean peninsula.

Bunnies Don't Lay Eggs

By Nathaniel Paull | April 18, 2003

They really ought to offer a class on the history of holidays. I for one would take it, primarily because it'd probably be an easy and interesting distributive requirement, but I'd also love to know just exactly where we get some of these themes Apparently Christianity takes the cake in terms of having unrelated icons and stories associated with important religious events.

Discrimination, Not Diversity

By Daniel Kay | April 18, 2003

I wish to respond to your editorial board's Wednesday, April 16 column "A Case for Action," in which you argue in favor of the University of Michigan's use of race as a criterion for admission.

Adventuresome, Yet Safe

By Julie Clemons | April 17, 2003

To the Editor: Regarding the April 11 article "Generaux recounts a life spent in pursuit of thrills" by Kelly Swartz, I wish to dispel any notions the article may convey that Mr. Genereaux's approach to the outdoors is representative of that of Dartmouth students.

Now's the Time...

By Andrew Hanauer | April 17, 2003

OK, Mr. Bush, here's your chance. You have been in office for more than two years now, and have done absolutely nothing to promote peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians.

A Case for Action

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | April 16, 2003

When the United States Supreme Court rules this summer in a pair of cases filed against the University of Michigan, the verdict will likely be the most important decision on affirmative action in the last 25 years.

The Jordan Legacy

By Ryan Tan | April 16, 2003

So, he didn't make it after all. Michael Jordan failed to qualify for the NBA playoffs in what is (supposedly, at least) his last season as a basketball player.

The Godfather

By Sam Stein | April 15, 2003

My friend's father owns and operates The Colonial Funeral Home right outside New Haven, Connecticut.

One More Thing

By John S. Leyba, | April 14, 2003

To the Editor: I loved Paul Marino's April 11 column "Berry Library." He forgot, however, its most annoying feature: the bizarre system of separate elevators for every part of the building, and Elevator One's doors (by the Info Desk), which creak and squeak every time they open and close, as if they were 40 years old.

Considering Both Sides

By Joseph Nicolosi, Ph.D. | April 14, 2003

To the Editor: My wife and I read with interest Professor Swayne's April 3 editorial "Tacit Intolerance," which offers a critical review of our new book, "A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality." Professor Swayne calls for an open debate on the question of homosexuality -- a call that we wholly support.

Shameful Contempt

By Jedidiah Sorokin-Altmann | April 14, 2003

To the Editor: I was angered to read Paul Marino's April 11 diatribe "Berry Library," particularly by the bit where he treats Mr. Berry with the utmost contempt. John Berry gave $25 million to the College to build a better library, and we should be grateful.

Lively Satire, Dreary Change

By Bonnie Wallin | April 14, 2003

To the Editor: Paul Marino rocks! His April 11 column was a great piece of satire. I worked in Sanborn Library, when it was a library, and now have to trudge through depressing Berry Library every day.

Berry Library

By Paul Marino | April 11, 2003

Hasty construction, gray walls, wasted electronics and crappy sculptures. Such is the hallmark of the Berry Library.
