A Class Gift

By Marc Fenigstein | April 12, 2001

The number of top-quality high school students attracted to our school is falling. We no longer impress the brightest, most creative, most interesting students as a place worth educating them.

End the Hate

By Julie Ratico | April 12, 2001

To the Editor: I am tired and dismayed by the members of the Dartmouth community that use mean-spirited, hateful, hurtful and sometimes threatening comments, all under the guise of free speech. I hope more people like those who were in support of Friday's rally will continue to work for change.

The Way Of The World

By Joshua Marks | April 12, 2001

To The Editor: I find myself amused by both Mr. Mishkin (The Dartmouth, April 2nd, 2001, "Reality Check") and Ms. Lafsky (The Dartmouth, April 6th, 2001, "Look A Little Closer"). I can only say that being a member of the "corporate slave machine" in New York, I cannot actually assign a proper value on whose opinion is more harmful to current undergraduates.

An Extended Metaphor

By Andrew Grossman | April 12, 2001

To the Editor: The time has come for change: we must capture the energy, the momentum, of last Friday's protests and direct it where it will do the most good.

Tell the Facts

By Stan Horowitz | April 12, 2001

To the Editor: I think Chris Curran's piece (The Dartmouth, April 11th, 2001, "Admit It") was right on the mark, but didn't go quite far enough.

Admit It

By Chris Curran | April 11, 2001

The numbers are in for the admitted Class of 2005 and they are not encouraging. Average SAT scores are down slightly.

Further Analysis

By Gary Jefferson | April 11, 2001

To the Editor: I just want to point out that this otherwise excellent article ("College adds $1.6 Million to financial aid," The Dartmouth, April 4th, 2001) does include some misleading analysis.

A Tribute to Matthew

By Nicholas Foley | April 11, 2001

To the Editor: Too late we pray with hearts bereft That our God had for us you left, To play on fields where glory flees Chestnut crown bending in the breeze. But He has beckoned you to come, Consort with saints beyond the sun. Once more may you walk on the Green Touching us; yet by no one seen. Should you choose in God's arms to stay, Then with your parents let us pray: "Guard good Matthew as he sleeps, Pray provide him perfect peace"

A Change of Pace

By Liam Kuhn | April 11, 2001

With last week's protests at Parkhurst Hall, this College finally showed that it has both some soul and some spine.

Black By Popular Demand

By Alfred Valrie Jr. | April 10, 2001

A joke: one day, three campus liberals, one a women's studies major, one a sociology major and the other an education minor, stopped protesting whatever it is they were protesting.

Aiming for Moderation

By Steven A. Zyck | April 9, 2001

To the Editor: Friday's protest brought forth some great ideas. Especially heartfelt were the requests that limits be placed on the number of hours student-employees work and the inhibiting price of off-campus programs and certain P.E.

Behind the Rally

By Hillary Miller | April 9, 2001

Friday's protest/rally/speak-in/speak-out culminated in Collis Commonground with administrators and Trustees assuring us that we had their support.

At His Word

By Gary Weissman | April 9, 2001

Freedom of Speech

By Jonathan Potter | April 9, 2001

This past Friday, there was an opportunity for members of the Dartmouth community to come to the steps of Parkhurst to share their voices in an open dialogue about change at Dartmouth College.

What Is Diversity?

By Dan Galemba | April 9, 2001

When I first glanced at the mass email sent out late last week about the gathering at Parkhurst to protest the administration's impotence when it comes to listening to the students, I was excited, thinking that more people felt the way I do.
