Our Moral Obligation to Iraq

|

We hear constantly about the strategy of the current crisis in Iraq. These concerns about national security lead a majority of Americans -- 54 percent, according to the latest Time magazine poll -- to favor invading Iraq.

A Veteran Against the War

|

To the Editor: I'm a Vietnam combat veteran. That experience leads me to believe that the best way to "support our troops" is to keep them out of this war. When the President talks about going to war with Saddam Hussein, that would be easy for me to support.


Opinion

Vote for Debate

|

To the Editor: Tomorrow, the Dresden School District is having a vote on the continuation of their school's debate program.





Opinion

Persona Non Grata

|

On Monday, Feb. 24, as I read the Washington Post online, I stumbled on an interesting article entitled "Bush faces increasingly poor image overseas." This article reported the growing anti-Bush sentiments around the world, stating at some point that in some parts of the world, Bush is seen as a greater threat to world peace than Saddam Hussein.

Hillel's Path Toward Exclusion

What's in a Name?

|

We all know the tumult over the administration's attempts to shape a unique Dartmouth identity. In my case, however, I think they've already won.




Opinion

A Needed State Personality

|

The Capitol is plagued by Senators who are afraid to articulate their positions on issues, who are slaves to the media spotlight and who disingenuously attempt to create a image as ordinary "men of the people." The citizens of the State of New Hampshire are fortunate to have a junior Senator who suffers from none of these faults: John Sununu.


Opinion

A Call for Change at Hillel

|

Dartmouth Hillel, the College's only Jewish student organization and one that purports to represent Jewish students, has failed in its mission and currently alienates both current and potential students.

Take Me Out of the Hockey Game

|

The College announced today that all clapping, cheering, talking and any other sort of "audible sound" will from now on be prohibited at all men's and women's home hockey games.


Opinion

The Heist

|

It was supposed to be the "merger of the century." There were $106 billion reasons to believe in success.


Opinion

Affirmative Admissions

|

Once again, Dartmouth finds itself in the national limelight. This time, the College joined seven other prestigious schools in filing a brief imploring the Supreme Court to allow schools to consider race or ethnicity in the college application process.


Opinion

A False Justification

|

To the Editor: Graham Roth's op-ed "A Humanitarian Side to War?" (The Dartmouth, Feb. 5) was very interesting and drove home what is a really important point as we hurtle towards war: the United States didn't care about the Iraqi people until Americans died.
