A Distributive Fiasco

By Abbye Meyer | January 16, 2001

The greatest accomplishment of my career in math and science at Dartmouth, I believe, was being yelled at for talking in a 200-person lecture class.

The Energy of Abraham

By Hemant Joshi | January 15, 2001

Of President-elect Bush's selections for cabinet posts, Sen. John Ashcroft has received the most attention, particularly for his conservative record on abortion and his questionable handling of racial issues in his state of Missouri.

Testa's Indignation

By Doug Bachman | January 15, 2001

To the Editor: Retching bent over see-through bags already draped in skeins of vomit, toking then chugging, then toking while chugging, staggering over row upon row of foam-topped fermented barley mouthwash brimmed for the bob splash of an incoming pong ball--I've been there, done that, seen that done ad nauseum.

I'm Off

By Abby Horowitz | January 12, 2001

They told me all the fabulous features of the off term: all these wonderful internship opportunities just waiting to be snatched up by capable Dartmouth students.

De Sade Was Cool

By Nancy Lai | January 12, 2001

I'm taking a four-course load this winter, and including three (let me repeat, three) required x-hours every single week, I will be having a grand total of 17 hours of class a week.

Oh, to be young again!

By Rob Valet | January 10, 2001

I must admit that, as I begin my senior winter, I am starting to feel rather old. Back when I was a carefree little freshman (1997-8, when most of you still had zits or braces, or both!), I used to laugh when my senior friends stressed about grad schools or finding jobs.

Mission Accomplished?

Dissecting Linda Chavez

By Dan Pollock | January 9, 2001

Move aside John Ashcroft. Last Sunday, Linda Chavez, a syndicated columnist chosen to be Bush's Secretary of Labor, acquired the unfortunate distinction of being the president-elect's most controversial cabinet designee.

Opinion

Regarding the D-Plan

By Paul "Bub" Cathcart | January 8, 2001

It's no secret that students don't unanimously applaud the D-plan. Every upperclassman at Dartmouth has a story about the best friend he lost, the championship season he missed out on, or the classes he forewent because of certain combinations of on-, off- and leave-terms.

Rules to Buy By

By Randy Stebbins | January 8, 2001

After the heavy snow last weekend a friend and I went tobogganing at the golf course. My toboggan is a beautiful rock maple sled, its steam-bent nose arcing gracefully backwards toward the smooth boards of the base.

Opinion

A Baltic Missile Crisis

By Dan Pollock | January 5, 2001

Does this scenario sound familiar? A young, inexperienced president is elected to office with a slim electoral majority and faces grave doubts about his abilities from leaders both at home and abroad.

Opinion

Brain Boggling

By Jon Schroeder | January 5, 2001

I am the king of Boggle/ There is none higher/ I gets eleven points from the word 'quagmire.'" A few years ago, I thought this line from a bad Beastie Boys song was incredibly funny, if a bit random.
