Clarifying the Message

By John Lawrence | November 21, 2001

To the Editor: I am writing in response to Jeff Deck's Nov. 16 article, "Against White Ribbons." Mr. Deck fails to understand the point of White Ribbon Day. Deck is glad to trivialize the ultimate statement of the ribbons as "I am not a rapist," but the statement is much greater.

Police Immaturity

By Michael Larocca | November 21, 2001

Last week a phone call was made to the Hanover Police suggesting that the person responsible for the recent sexual assaults on campus was in Food Court.

Raising Awareness

To the Editor: Dear Mr. Deck, regarding your article "Against White Ribbons" (Nov. 16): I did not send you a white ribbon, but I salute those who did!

A Hacker's Life

By Nathaniel Paull | November 21, 2001

I know just enough about technology to really get myself screwed. Back in the beige days of computing, before the flowering of iMacs in rainbow and "Flower-Power" (that idea crashed hard), I got suspended for hacking into a mainframe.

Re-humanizing the Palestinians

By The Dartmouth | November 21, 2001

By Mohamad Bydon '01 In the Oct. 28 issue of The New York TimesMagazine, award-winning journalist Joseph Lelyveld wrote an article entitled "All Suicide Bombers Are Not Alike." Lelyveld, in an attempt to understand suicide-bombing, stopped in Gaza and spoke to the Palestinian parents of a "martyr." He describes the father of the deceased Ismael as "solemnly prideful" and his mother as "resolutely cheerful ... [She] betrayed not a hint of sadness as she spoke of her departed son." This description struck me as rather bizarre, especially since I've been through Palestinian refugee camps myself and have met the parents of suicide bombers in south Lebanon.

Criminal Treatment

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | November 20, 2001

Although we respect the ongoing efforts of the Hanover Police Department to find the per- petrator of two recent on-campus assaults, the parading of a student through Food Court last Thursday evening was unacceptable. This spectacle, in probably the most densely populated area on campus at that moment, made the student look like a criminal in front of his peers. After a witness to the original crime identified a student who was potentially the perpetrator, police officers came to Food Court to question the possible suspect.

A Hint of Lint

By Anil Antony | November 20, 2001

Lint flabbergasts me. I'm not talking about the stuff that creeps up my stomach to burrow in my navel.

Combating Stereotypes

By Morgan Brown | November 19, 2001

To the Editor: Deck's "Against White Ribbons" (Nov. 16) said it like it is. Finally someone stood up and said that all men are not aggressors, just as all whites are not racists.

The Real World

By Brian Nick | November 19, 2001

I forget exactly where I was when it first dawned on me that college was not real. Most likely it was at some room party (remember those?) during freshman orientation in the fall of 1999 when S&S raided a two-room triple that had 70 people in it.

Discovering Treasures

Once upon a time, I used to get sleep. I used to go to bed before 4 a.m. every day. I used to stay awake and learn something in my morning classes.

A New Mascot Idea

By Andy Hanauer | November 19, 2001

To the Editor: I believe it is time for Dartmouth to make a change in the mascot department; let's be honest, the moose needs to go.

Joining Against Violence

By Stephanie Hogan | November 19, 2001

To the Editor: The Nov. 16 column by Jeff Deck ("Against White Ribbons") makes several specious statements about Saturday's White Ribbon Day organized by both the Men's Project and the Women's Resource Center.

No Name Necessary

By J.P. Connolly | November 19, 2001

To the Editor: This letter regards the article "Police Questions Student" (Nov. 16). I feel that The Dartmouth has displayed extremely poor taste in publishing the name of the student questioned.
