To The Editor: I read in your January 21st issue, an article on dormitory cable television containing the following paragraph: "One of the reasons the College plans to offer new channels is to increase the cultural diversity of television programming on campus.

What's the Difference?

By Edward Mallet | January 26, 2000

To the Editor: At Princeton, the unregulated Eating Clubs for the two upper classes have "Bicker" for what we call Rush, and the clubs have venerable cultures and reputations -- jock clubs, geek clubs, clubs for folks who say they don't believe in clubs, etc. At Yale, the heavy, discriminatory selectivity is in the junior year for places in the Senior Societies which polkadot the campus with their Tombs.

Quiet on the Set

By Eric Del Pozo | January 26, 2000

As many of you have undoubtedly noticed, there are a lot of alarming facts in the world lately. Alarming fact number ONE is that, according to my film professor, movies used to not have any sound.

Did You Forget?

By Jeffrey Fine | January 25, 2000

This article was motivated, in part, by Ryan Carey's article in a recent issue of The Dartmouth. Mr. Carey wrote, "I've been struck at the lack of attention paid to the rest of the report." I would like to extend Mr. Carey's comments even further.

Stopping Time

By Abbye Meyer | January 25, 2000

A few days ago, a friend of mine said he'd stop time just to watch TV. Granted, it sounded pretty stupid, but as I had just spent the day running around, dealing with too many classes and trying to fit in too many unnecessary activities, I knew exactly what he meant. Don't we all wish for stupid things like extra time to watch TV?

Core Values?

By Martin Redman | January 24, 2000

To the Editor: As a relative newcomer, having arrived only last July, I have spent the past several months forming an understanding of this unique place called Dartmouth College.

McCain for President

By Kathleen E. Reeder | January 21, 2000

To the Editor: It's my impression that many college students don't care about politics. We've grown up with tales of Watergate and lived through "Zippergate". We've heard stump speeches, policy discussion, and ideological debates from all sides.

Seton Hall Tragedy

By James Killmond | January 21, 2000

To the Editor: I applaud your timely and thorough coverage of the fire at Seton Hall. The excuses that Dartmouth College offers for failing to install sprinklers in all dormitories are unconvincing.

Initiative? What Initiative?

By Dan Galemba | January 21, 2000

Let me start by acknowledging some very good points in the SLI report. The report successfully addressed the conspicuous need for a variety of new facilities and social spaces on campus.

High Ability Students

By Liam Kuhn | January 20, 2000

I've never been the type of guy anyone would describe as "brimming with self-confidence." In fact, I can be downright shy in many situations.

Bargaining Chips

By Dan Pollock | January 19, 2000

In 1979 a group of Iranians took 55 Americans hostage at the US embassy in Teheran. For nearly a year, the world held its breath as American citizens were paraded around with blindfolds on their faces.

Papal Insight

By Conor Dugan | January 19, 2000

Pope John Paul II is perhaps the most known and visible man alive today. And as George Weigel, papal biographer, has argued, he is perhaps the most misunderstood.

Inconsistency

By Brian Maloney | January 18, 2000

I'd like to congratulate the Committee on the Student Life Initiative for producing an answer to the questions the Dartmouth student body has been asking since last February.

Open-Apple M

By Nancy Lai | January 14, 2000

Take my hand as we journey into the dark netherworld of collegiate life. I pray thee, have no fear as we delve into the seedy machinations of 18 to 21 year olds and press our noses against the underbelly of higher learning.

The Initiative Disappoints

By Robert K. McConnaughey | January 14, 2000

To the Editor, Having read the initiative recommendations, I am sadly disappointed. It strikes me that the committee proposes a great deal of curtailment of what is currently the heart of the Dartmouth social system without significant imaginative suggestions for what will serve as a replacement.
