A Slippery Slope Indeed!

By Abigail Marsh | April 5, 1999

A Call To Arms

By Kevan Higgins | April 2, 1999

Now hear this: I hereby command spring term to be fun. Some of you out there may say, "Oh, well look who thinks he can tell me what to do." To that I say go to hell.

The Real World

By John Renehan | April 1, 1999

Saving Private Ryan has won the Academy Award for Best Director. On the strength of this it is back in theaters, where it will do respectable business for a while, then fade away.

South of the Border

By Eric Del Pozo | March 31, 1999

Ladies and gentlemen, it is that time of year again - time to kick off the shoes, lay back, relax and watch 64 of the world's best teams slug it out with each other for the title.

A Night at Africaso

By Ashok Ramasubramanian | March 30, 1999

Distracted Insomnia

Strip for School Spirit

An Alcoholic Image

By Catherine McCarthy | March 8, 1999

So you come to Dartmouth and what do you know about this place?

Rising Reputation and Intellectual Mediocrity

By William C. Dowling | March 5, 1999

To the Editor: Having been at Dartmouth during the countercultural '60s, when fraternities were a negligible presence on campus, I've had no opinion about them one way or the other.

Dartmouth has always had -- we all know this is true: it's the wince in the night of every Dartmouth graduate -- a tradition of intellectual mediocrity.

By Brian Reilly | March 5, 1999

The world as it ought to be. Which is to say, upside down. "God I love to turn my little blue world upside down" (Tori Amos, "Upside down"). I'd like to tell you about a recent conversation between me and a woman of extraordinary, indeed I said "singular," beauty.
