A Love Affair of Sorts

By Rob Valey | October 9, 1998

Valentine's Day is but 128 days from now, and so I would like to dedicate this column to you, love of my life, Collis Omelette Lady. I still remember the day my eyes first gazed upon you as you busily made omelettes in Collis.

A Frat Guy's Perspective

By Brian Fleming | October 8, 1998

As I began to read David Berenson's column ["Decide for Yourself," The Dartmouth, Oct. 6] on the detrimental influence of fraternities on the Dartmouth campus, my vision began to blur and my head began to spin.

The Boys of Summer

By Liam Kuhn | October 8, 1998

It would have been spectacular. It would have been the ultimate icing on the greatest of cakes. Both the Red Sox and Cubs were eliminated from the play-offs over the weekend.

How Do You Hail a Cow?

By Michael Weiss | October 6, 1998

At the risk of repeating what's already been said of the cultural wetwilly that is migrating to Hanover, N.H., allow me to add one more perspective -- that of the New Yorker.

Decide for Yourself

By David Berenson | October 6, 1998

While having dinner with a friend this weekend, I listened as he told me various stories involving a common practice in his fraternity -- getting so drunk that you urinate on yourself, objects such as a bed or couch or other members of the house.

Television Withdrawal

Wired to the World

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | October 2, 1998

The College's decision to provide cable television access in residence hall rooms this winter is a pleasant surprise and a step in the right direction. In addition to significantly improving the quality of life for Dartmouth students, the decision demonstrates the administration's willingness and ability to respond to student concerns. After stalling on the matter last year, the administration has obviously realized the importance of this issue to students. The argument that cable will detract from Dartmouth's intellectual atmosphere or deter students from more "academic" pursuits was justifiably disregarded. In a culture dominated by CNN and MTV, Americans have come to rely on television for instantaneous worldwide information.

Life Under the Costumes

By Roy Lee | October 1, 1998

They come in all sizes and shapes, but they are usually furry, large and easily recognized. For reasons unknown, children love them and are attracted to them like sharks to a drop of blood.
