Friendships and Fall

By Ryan Tan | September 26, 2002

That's how my first year was -- like a typical fall day. Foggy and overcast in the morning, the day would transform into a beauty, with individual rays of sunlight permeating the watery pallor hanging over the Green. It's probably fair to conclude that the people that go to school at Dartmouth love the place.

Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité?

By Paul Bozzello | September 26, 2002

To the Editor: I've always felt that France has had an unfairly bad rap among Americans. Every time I've traveled to France my friends say they've heard that the French smell or that women there don't shave their armpits -- both statements are false, by the way.

A Hypocritical

By Chien Wen Kung | September 25, 2002

To the Editor: Katie Greenwood's column in The Dartmouth's Freshman Issue, "Defining the Dartmyth," deserves more than merely passing attention for reasons of both style and -- more importantly -- substance.

A Brief Case for Invading Iraq

By Henry Shi | September 25, 2002

Amidst the current national debate over the proper United States policy toward Iraq, the pro-invasion argument is based almost exclusively on Iraq's putative weapons of mass destruction programs and the Iraqi government's ties to terrorist organizations.

The Summer So Far

By Brian Nick | September 25, 2002

Suspended in Mid-Air

By Joshua Marcuse | September 16, 2002

Perched 40 feet in the air, my hands frozen and my arms burning, I repeatedly swung the serrated point of my ice tool at the face of the cliff.

Going the Distance, Taking My Time

By Christopher Ryan | September 16, 2002

As I'm sure many of you will discover in the months ahead, Dartmouth can be a busy place. With the multitude of academic, extracurricular, social, and other avenues for chasing your dreams, sharing your talents, and expressing your identities, time often rushes by faster than an Olympic sprinter, leaving you to scramble to fit everything in, and still turn in that 10-page paper on schedule.

The Meaning of Student Government at Dartmouth

By Janos Marton | September 16, 2002

Karl Marx once wrote, "Philosophers have only interpreted the world. The point, however, is the change it." While the social revolution of the 1960s is gone from most college campuses today, the amount of activism that still takes place is staggering, even overwhelming.

Defining the Dartmyth

By Katie Greenwood | September 16, 2002

So it's the third week of freshman fall and all the kids on your floor are once again going to frat row, and you're tagging along because you like to get your dance on or you want to roll with the nightlife or maybe you just really like warm cheap beer with a mysterious bouquet of bodily fluids, and you're trying to forget about the paper that's due next week and the fact that you're paying over $10 per waking hour to be at this college.

So Blue

By Alli Giordano | September 16, 2002

I'm walking home with Gillian and Margie, my roommates. We've just eaten a yummy dinner at one of the fine Dartmouth Dining Services establishments (Food Court, I think), and we're headed back to East Wheelock in the gathering dusk.

Overfunded, Underattended

By Robinson Hall | August 21, 2002

Many of this summer's planned social events have failed to live up to their promises. The much-touted Secret Garden dance drew relatively few students, despite omnipresent advertising and expenditures of nearly $15,000 from Class Council and other groups.

Things to Know About Me

By Alli Giordano | August 19, 2002

1)I was rejected from a Greek House. Last year, during Winter term, I did in fact rush. It sounded fun, and it was only about five bucks, so I went for it.

By Robinson Hall | August 15, 2002

Today could be the day that decides the direction of our country. It could be the day that you register to vote. Five student volunteers for candidates in this year's New Hampshire elections have planned a voter registration drive today in Tindle Lounge.
