Full Disclosure On Tuesday, the United States special envoy to Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalizad, said that further bombing of Afghanistan was necessary to ensure a lasting defeat of the Taliban and al-Qaida. We support the air strikes.

Unless you are a high and mighty med student, like my friend Varun who thinks his future is paved with gold, chances are that you will need to submit a rsum at some point.

Israelis and Palestinians: Fighting for Existence

By Ana Bonnheim | January 10, 2002

I would like to respond to Mohamad Bydon's Nov. 21 article in The Dartmouth entitled "Re-humanizing the Palestinians." In his article, he argues that the Palestinian people are simply "demanding freedom, a homeland and a solution to their refugee crisis." I would like to assert that the legitimate Palestinian goals of "freedom, a homeland and a solution to their refugee crisis" cannot be attained if Palestinians do not simultaneously meet the equally necessary goal of recognizing the state of Israel's right to exist. Mr. Bydon may well support a dual state solution to the current conflict between Israel and the Palestinians (he does not elaborate), allowing for both an independent Jewish state and an independent Palestinian state.

By Kevin Carmody | January 10, 2002

Since a December terrorist attack on the Indian Parliament that killed 14 people, relations between India and Pakistan -- never close to begin with -- have been in particularly dire straits.

A Textbook Example

By Mark R. Simmons | January 9, 2002

To the Editor, In an op-ed piece entitled "The Usual Suspect" that appeared in the Jan. 3, 2002 issue of The Dartmouth, the author, Pedro Csar De Los Santos Lora, said "The Hanover (and the New Hampshire) Police, apart from being inexperienced, were incompetent, ignorant and racist." Believe it or not, people who commit serious crimes actually lie about, and even deny, involvement (imagine that!). As the author stated, he was a potential suspect in a murder investigation, and while he knew he wasn't involved, the criminal investigators could not know that.

The Winter of Fitness

By Abbye Meyer | January 9, 2002

This is the Winter of Fitness. It's time to stop eating bread and cheese for every meal, stop driving to classes (maybe), and stop sitting around for so many hours a day.

Birthday Girl

By Abby Horowitz | January 9, 2002

I love birthdays. Some people don't like to make a big deal about them, but I love that feeling of "I am special" that the big day brings.

Excited about the Winter?

By Ryan Tan | January 8, 2002

Welcome to Dartmouth in the winter. It's 10 degrees Fahrenheit outside, and the new North Face fleece you bought over the Christmas break doesn't quite seem to do the trick.

Obituary

By Kristina Todd | January 7, 2002

On Jan. 2, the day I was set to fly to Boston, Spike, my fish of four years, met a tragic death. The snails, my father explained to me, had begun to eat away at his discolored and weak body, and my dad was forced to flush his limp carcass down the loo.

Major Pain

By Cal Newport | January 7, 2002

My fellow '04s, sophomore winter is finally here. It is now time to prepare to make the most important decision of our academic careers: do we face the cold to get an omelet for breakfast, or settle for a handful of stale Cheese-Its instead?

How to Speak Good

Some nights I have a dream that I'm back in a high school theatre production, wilting under the unforgiving offstage gaze of the director.

Frozen Woes

By Tanisha Keshava | January 4, 2002

I don't really believe in New Year's resolutions. The idea itself is not without merit. A new year is a time for new beginnings, so what better time to resolve to be better, healthier, kinder people?

Here We Go A-Caroling

By Liam Kuhn | January 3, 2002

Let's make no bones about it; I'm a bitter, miserable kid. No matter what I have to be thankful for, no matter what's going right in my world, I always dwell on the negative things.

The Usual Suspect

By Pedro Cesar De Los Santos Lora | January 3, 2002

In its editorial on Tuesday, Nov. 20, 2001, The Dartmouth stated that the Hanover Police, in contrast to their treatment of Timothy Hall, "conducted many student interviews in a subdued, professional fashion" during the Zantop murder investigation.

A New Security

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | January 3, 2002

Students returning to campus undoubtedly notice the new call boxes that the College has installed outside its dormitories. The industrial steel consoles clash with Dartmouth's colonial architecture just as the notion of a security system jars our perception of an idyllic rural campus.
