Fall Rituals

By Dan Pollock | September 24, 1999

Since Thursday was the official first day of autumn, we can now begin to enjoy all the traditional fall rituals.

Structured Choices are Limited Choices

By Josh Marks | September 23, 1999

To the Editor: I note that in your coverage of the latest trustee meeting you quote Dentzer as saying, "We strongly believe in choices, but we want those to be very structured kinds of choices," I would just like to point out to Dentzer that this sentiment is exactly what leads to the myopic world of prejudice and ignorance.

For The Kids

By Ben Rifkin | September 22, 1999

It's 4:20 and I have 40 minutes to write a 1000 word opinionated column for The Dartmouth, the nation's oldest (and most respected) college newspaper (I think) -- that's twenty five words per minute for the next forty minutes.

What Discussion?

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | September 22, 1999

As last night's forum came to a close, the steering committee co-chairs assured the audience they were open to discussion as they complete their deliberations over the course of Fall term.

Get Smart

By Jeff Deck | September 21, 1999

I think people think we are stupid. Have you ever given any thought to this? Americans must be doing something wrong, because the advertisers, government leaders and other masters of the brainwash in the US seem to think that we are somehow mentally deficient. I mean this to be no ill-spirited complaint delivered in a fit of grumphood; anyone who knows me can tell you what a shining pillar of joy I am.

Floyd Where Prohibited

By Eric Del Pozo | September 21, 1999

It is time once again for the latest installment of "Eric Talks About Important Cultural Centers of the World," which is a title that should signal to everyone that I will be talking about New York.

Our Heroic Women

By Conor Dugan | September 21, 1999

The culture we live in often seems marked by a dearth of heroes. It has role models, mentors, and stars but no one noted for nobility or courage.

Nine Months

By Kevan Higgins | September 20, 1999

What's that you say? You're a freshman? Oh that's great! Good for you. But what about me?? What about my rights?

A Victimized Culture

By Bety Terry Bonifacio | September 20, 1999

I am a Hawaiian living in Hawaii, and I am deeply offended by Aaron Akamu's characterization of our families as representing "poverty, unemployment, poor health, depression, poor education and welfare." Many of the members of my family, too, are trained in hula, and are deeply spiritual and dedicated to the concept of "Ohana" -- family and "Aloha" -- deep spiritual love. Obviously the Akamu boy has not been home lately, or he is influenced by the small handful of sovereignty activists who want to make every Hawaiian feel victimized.

A Dean's First Term

By James Larimore | August 25, 1999

Thank you. Those words might strike some as an odd way to begin a column, but they are the first words that come to mind as I look back upon my first term as dean of the College.

Crying Wolf Again

By Emmett Hogan | August 25, 1999

They're back. And crying wolf ... again. So many of us had hoped for a summer free from the strife of relentless protesting and endless bickering which seems to have plagued the Dartmouth campus in recent terms.
