Beyond Superficial Diversity

|

To the Editor: Dean of the College James Larimore was quoted as saying "It's clear to us from research that the most academically qualified students in the country are students who have an interest in being in a diverse educational community." This I find to be completely ludicrous.



Opinion

Are Mormons Christian?

|

To the Editor: Although Mormons call themselves Christians, the fundamental difference between the two is that Mormons are polytheistic, while Christians are monotheistic.


Opinion

Are Mormons Christian?

|

To the Editor: I think it is a bit rich when Latter-day Saints try to involve themselves with Christian groups who they have been taught are apostates from true Christianity.


Opinion

Religiously Different

|

To the Editor: I have read with great interest the controversy regarding the Summer Christian Fellowship seeking leadership within a Christian Campus group.

Dog Cruelty is Violent Crime

|

To the Editor: In reference to Matt Soriano's editorial "Equality for All?" in the July 17 Op-Ed section -- I sincerely hope that I missed some aspect of satire in the piece.



Opinion

Sex Without Limits?

|

To the Editor: I read an article about sexual relationships awhile ago and wanted to present a different view on sex and true love to readers of The Dartmouth, a view involving God. Our culture is consumed by love and sex.

The Last Wilderness

|

Last November or December, I decided to vote. After writing in friends for positions such as Sheriff and County Auditor, I came to the presidential election.




Opinion

Equality for All?

|

By about May of this year, there was little that could faze me about New Jersey drivers. Over the course of eleven weeks and 8,000 miles driven on behalf of my mortgage firm, I had been rear-ended twice, I had cursed and been cursed at for using a cell phone at 78 miles an hour and had my life threatened.


Opinion

Trampling Liberty

|

The College recently implemented and then withdrew temporarily a new policy that involves daily, unannounced walk-throughs of all Greek houses by Safety and Security.


Opinion

Misrepresented

|

The '03 Class Council may be getting new officers, but rest assured that we will still have to put up with the same phony leadership that has defined our esteemed Councilmen from the beginning.


Opinion

Words of Caution

|

To the Editor: I am writing in response to the article by Kathleen McDermott and Sabrina Peric in Monday's edition of The Dartmouth ("S&S Checks Routine for Some"). Your article lacked two relevant considerations that distinguish affinity houses from Greek houses on the matter of S&S walk-throughs. The first consideration is that, unlike Greek houses, affinity houses are owned and operated by the College, and are conscientiously administered like dorms.


Opinion

And It Rained

|

I had never before experienced what most people would consider a decent, or even normal, celebration of our nation's independence.


Opinion

Let CFS House Sophomores

|

To the Editor: As I take a break from the intricacies of Dartmouth and Greek issues, I cannot help but notice the gigantic real estate quandary the administration has sunk into.


Opinion

These Hallowed Pages

|

To the Editor: As I often check out The Dartmouth online while working off campus this summer, I was shocked and dismayed to see the column "Pin Prick," written by Adam Small '04. You really need some new voices.

Don't Show Me the Money

|

Both houses of Congress are back in session this week. And campaign finance reform, a now-familiar issue to most Americans, is being debated in the House of Representatives.

Will There Be Peace?

|

By Mohamad Bydon '01 During his recent trip to the Middle East, Secretary of State Collin Powell announced that he and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon had agreed to test Yassir Arafat's peace-making resolve: "[T]here will be seven days of trial or tests in order to see how the Palestinian Authority manages to keep its undertakings." Those undertakings are to include the "complete and utter cessation of terrorist actions, of violence and of incitement" which will lead, as the hypothetical situation decrees, to the existence of "complete quiet." The seven day test will be followed by a six week cooling-off period. Although I do not doubt its sincerity, Powell's statement includes two incorrect assumptions.
