Down by the River

|

Like many of my fellow 'shmen, I attended Room Draw on May 9th. We all knew that chances for housing were slim, with 389 beds left for our class.






Opinion

An Underwhelming Decision

To the Editor: The recent announcement by the Dartmouth Board of Trustees regarding the Student Life Initiative came as a terrible anticlimax.


Opinion

Pass the Valium

|

I've been doing lots of apologizing lately -- as well as lots of re-evaluation of exactly where the blame lies.

MST 3K Fallout

|

A few years ago, the Earth was graced with the presence of a little TV show called Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST 3K). For those of you who are too cool for television, I'll provide some background.


Opinion

Empty Votes

|

An elderly woman stands alone in a drab, yellowish room surrounded by voting booths. At a first glance, one would assume that the room is some type of storage room, perhaps where the voting booths are stored when they aren't being used.

A Summer to Excel

Job search. What two words can strike fear into a senior's heart like "job search"? Unless of course, it's "unemployed forever" or "dirt poor." But you're not a senior, you point out, you're just a measly '03.




Opinion

Radical women on campus

|

To the Editor: I am writing to applaud the efforts of students, and the support of college offices (especially Bigger, Better, Later), for making last night's visit by Sister Spit possible.


Opinion

The Saturday Morning Raid

|

Whether you believe as most Americans do that Elian Gonzalez should be with his father or take the position of many Cuban Americans that he should be allowed to stay in the United States with his relatives, images of the pre-dawn seizure of Elian by the INS speak of a disturbing incident.


Opinion

SA is not a joke

To the Editor: As members of the Student Assembly, we were disappointed with the house editorial "The Usual Suspects." Despite the approach taken by the D, we maintain that the Student Assembly is a credible body capable of effecting positive change for all members of the Dartmouth community. We have never claimed to be a perfect organization.


Opinion

The Usual Suspects

After reviewing all the candidates for Student Assembly in the upcoming elections, the Dartmouth Editorial Board cannot conscientiously endorse anyone for the office of president or vice president.
