Understanding Other Views

By Anna Gates | March 6, 2001

To the Editor: As a prospective Dartmouth student (I am eagerly and nervously awaiting that fateful letter in April), I was browsing through your paper online and came across Alex DiGiorgio's article "Get Over It," that appeared on March 2.

Rain or Shine?

By Dan Pollock | March 6, 2001

It doesn't always happen, but yesterday's snow proved that our friendly weatherman's (or woman's) prediction was correct.

A Blockheaded Change

By Andy Hoey | March 5, 2001

Dartmouth takes great pride in hailing itself as a close-knit residential college, and much of the Student Life Initiative aims at improving the residential experience.

Earplugs Not Enough

By Jack Downey | March 5, 2001

Exiled in the River dorms during the fall of 1999, I barely noticed or cared much about the massive structure being built on Baker's northern side.

An Open Letter

By James Larimore | March 2, 2001

To the members of the Dartmouth community: I would like to respond to the very thoughtful editorial by Eleanor Leahy that appeared in The Dartmouth on February 23.

Press Went Too Far

By Tanya Hyde | March 2, 2001

To the Editor: What has been done to Lynda and Stan Williams is unforgivable. Our press, under the guise of "freedom of speech," is taking liberties that would be executable in other countries.

Get Over It

By Alex DiGiorgio | March 2, 2001

I am a white, heterosexual, able-bodied male. I'll admit it: my first reaction to the email regarding the Psi U incident was probably not unique among all the other white, heterosexual guys on this campus.

Greek System Offensive?

By Joshua McCurdy | March 2, 2001

To the Editor: I am one of the few people that knows exactly what happened with the "Cuban Party," mentioned in Ali Rashid's column in yesterday's issue of The Dartmouth.

Consequences for Actions

By Mark Pruner | March 2, 2001

To the Editor: Inappropriate actions should have consequences. If Psi Upsilon fraternity doesn't stand for racism and sexism, then they should remove those members whose actions are inappropriate.

No Slavery Parallel

By Eric Dahlberg | March 1, 2001

To the Editor: I am writing this in response to the article written by Leah Threatte '01, that appeared on Wednesday, February 28, 2001: The auction about which Ms. Threatte has complained was a community-service activity to raise funds for Upper Valley charities, as she herself states. From the sounds of it, this event had nothing to do with the issue of slavery or race, except insofar as it was called an "auction." While I agree with Ms. Threatte that slavery was a terrible chapter in American history, I fail to see the connection she is making between a community service event intended to benefit the poor with the African slave trade.

Loss of Privacy

By Allison MacDonald | March 1, 2001

To the Editor: In the fall of my senior year, I attended an informal Safety and Security meeting in my cluster -- a sort of question/answer/scare the 'shmen kind of thing.

Some Real Action, Please!

By Bernette Tsai | March 1, 2001

To the Editor: To add to Liam Kuhn's editorial which ran on Feb. 26, "Deeds, Not Just Words," I would like to insert some of my own experiences as a Dartmouth senior one term away from graduation.

Frat Boys and Cheating

By Tim Kennedy | March 1, 2001

To the Editor: I applaud Ms. Peric's opening statement, "So it's not exactly 'Naked News,' but it's still the prototypical lazy frat boy's dream come true," from her recent article (A Whole New Breed of Cheating), for boldly going where no one has gone before and taking a cheap shot at fraternity members.

Door Locks are Impractical

By Justin P. Isariyawongse | March 1, 2001

To the Editor: Before any discussion of door locks can proceed, I want to call into question Dean of Residential Life Martin Redman's logic in citing the primary student concern as "having access to each other's residence halls." While this is certainly a novel, hardly ancillary concern that emerges from the consideration of door locks, the controversy of the issue extends much further than universal dorm access. We are all aware of the attempts by the Office of Residential Life to discourage malice come Homecoming, Winter Carnival, and Green Key.
