A Credibility Gap

By Chris Curran | August 8, 2001

While many in the Dartmouth community are resigned to the impending presence of Safety and Security officers in Greek houses, I question whether enough attention has been paid to the true rationale for the new policy.

By John Haskell | August 6, 2001

It is a well-known and often stated fact that Dartmouth College can legally deny its students rights guaranteed to all citizens by the Constitution of the United States.

A Craving for Change

By Dan Chang | August 2, 2001

Life at Dartmouth is great. But couldn't it be better? Pressing issues surrounding the future of student life are frequently arising, and student response has been anything but enthusiastic. We know the face of student life is changing.

River Rat

By Abby Horowitz | August 1, 2001

When I visited Dartmouth as a prospective, my host lived in The River dorms. Needless to say, I did not come away with a very favorable impression of the rooming situation here.

Call it Dartnose

By Abbye Meyer | August 1, 2001

It's easy to cry. We all do it sometimes, and I admit to doing a fair share of sobbing, even while at this wonderful place in the mountains, this College on the Hill (as they say), this Dartmouth.

Dartmouth Exposed!

By Dan Galemba | August 1, 2001

As I tried to come up with a topic with which to enlighten incoming freshmen, having started writing my column about two hours before the deadline, I searched on thedartmouth.com (I suggest you frequent it over the summer, it will help excite and prepare you for Dartmouth) for the column I wrote for the Freshman Issue last summer to give myself some ideas, or, should the need arise, repeat myself completely.

Throw out everything you've been sent. Ignore everything you've been told. I'm the only advice-monger you need consult during your transition to college.

Quasi-Important Advice

By Nancy Lai | August 1, 2001

Well, well. Hello, '05s. It's two o'clock in the morning. I've just gotten back to my room from the painting studio and since, under extreme duress, I've been compelled to write this article, I'm up typing, sitting in front of this damnable Mac instead of sinking into a peaceful oblivion in my (bottom) half of the bunk bed. So this is usually a humor column and this column usually addresses current issues at Dartmouth (in a highly tangential manner) or more often, consists of my trying to fill up a column with 600 words or more (I also use lots of parentheses.

Dartmouth 101

By John Haskell | August 1, 2001

As a freshman, I'm sure you have many preconceived notions about Dartmouth. No, I'm not about to tell you to go into everything with a completely open mind.

Uncommon Neighbors

By Audrey McCollum | July 31, 2001

A bluebird alighted on our terrace one afternoon this spring. He perched where Bob, my husband, and I had shared hours of intimate conversation with Half and Susanne Zantop, our beloved next-door neighbors. Forest dwellers in Papua New Guinea, a Pacific nation in which we have often traveled, believe that birds embody spirits of the dead.

The Issue of Inclusiveness

By Spencer Jones | July 27, 2001

To the Editor: Though to debate the definition of "Christianity" on the editorial pages of The Dartmouth in itself seems more than partly insensitive and misplaced, I would be remiss in not writing in response to the move by the Summer Christian Fellowship to bar Meredith Brooks from a leadership role and the subsequent narrow categorizations of Mormonism that have played themselves out on these op-ed pages. The crux of the issue that seems to have been thus far missed in this debate is that the Summer Christian Fellowship, as sponsored by the Tucker Foundation, was to maintain a "nondenominational" and presumably open forum for those interested in basic "Christian" beliefs. The range of denominations to self-categorize themselves as Christian at Dartmouth -- be they Catholic, Protestant, Mormon or otherwise -- certainly varies in the respective doctrinal specifics.
