A Bad Case of Senioritis

By Kevan Higgins | February 17, 2000

Hello again. First a big apology for not writing in so long. It would be a massive understatement to say that things with me have been a little hectic.

Working at Rauner

By Allen Fromherz | February 16, 2000

With its majestic Corinthian columnar entrance, the Rauner Special Collections Library seems more like a temple than a repository for old books.

Reform Party Reformed

By Dan Pollock | February 16, 2000

After several months of speculation, Donald J. Trump, developer, casino operator and self-described womanizer, has decided to drop his bid for the presidency -- a great tragedy for political cartoonists and late-night comedy show hosts.

Princeton Eating Clubs

By Ryan Gardner | February 15, 2000

To the Editor: In regards to Rachel Osterman's January 25th piece, "Yale and Princeton have residential college systems", I simply wanted to point out an inaccuracy regarding her statements on the living situations of Princeton upperclassmen.

A Love Letter

By Kristen Chartier | February 14, 2000

I'd like to have a word with Cupid. Maybe it's just me, but I was under the impression that he existed only to sling arrows of love into the hearts of the young.

Getting Ready for V-Day

By Megan Costa | February 14, 2000

I have had some interesting Valentine's Days at Dartmouth, but none of them have focused on vaginas quite as much as this coming one will.

A Tale of Two Sculptures

By Ben Rifkin | February 11, 2000

Once upon a time, oh, I don't know, about four years ago, when I was but a wee freshman, there stood a sculpture, proud, gallant, and tall ... for about five hours.

A Winter Wonderland

By Eric Del Pozo | February 11, 2000

This weekend, Upper Valley residents (total: 8) are offered a chance to take part in the fun-filled 3.5 day extravaganza known as "Dartmouth Winter Carnival." In case you haven't heard, Winter Carnival is a festive and highly regarded tradition, named in honor of its founder, "some guy." Rather than going into the history and importance of Winter Carnival, which would involve making a lot of things up, which I could never do in good conscience after twice reporting that "Godzilla" is a food group, here is a run down of what will undoubtedly be this weekend's highlights: THE THEME -- The theme of this year's Carnival is "Lest The Cold Traditions Fail," as selected by the Committee That Selects Annually What Should Lest Fail.

Carnivalesque

By Jeff Deck | February 11, 2000

I don't usually write things that are important or even relevant, but this time I thought I should write about something that touches all of our hearts.

Freshman Fifteen Fears

By Nancy Lai | February 10, 2000

I feel as if I am less worthy a human being than those with whom my articles have graced the pages of America's Oldest College Newspaper.

A Major Pain

Let me start off by saying that yeah, there may be some of you out there who are confident in your choice of major.

Hell on Big Metal Wheels

By Eric Del Pozo | February 9, 2000

If you think children are decent human beings, then you haven't ridden Amtrak lately. At the end of winter break, in my naivet (literal translation: "ratty clothing that I slept in"), I figured there had to be a way I could travel from New York to White River Junction without: a) Hearing blood-curdling screams. b) Being bitten. c) Being pooped on. So my main objective was, obviously, to avoid children.

The Well's Run Dry

By Liam Kuhn | February 8, 2000

As a columnist, I have it pretty easy. I don't ever have to go to meetings, I don't ever have to interview people, and I don't even have to worry too much about being "factually accurate." Every two weeks, I just rehash the same pro-Greek anti-administration column I've used for the past year now and then e-mail it into my editor.

My Friend Tipper

By Abbye Meyer | February 7, 2000

So I'm pretty sure that Tipper Gore and I are going to end up best friends. I mean, as soon as she realizes that it's possible; yeah, we'll definitely be best friends. It's not like I'm totally insane in my dream for a really cool, famous friend in the world.
