Summer Slump

By Marcia Yablon | July 10, 1998

When I arranged my D-plan freshman spring I thought the only thing better than four terms at Dartmouth was five.

The Crusade Against Demon Rum

By John Finn | July 10, 1998

I am writing to issue an urgent warning to Dartmouth students that you run -- don't walk -- to the room in Baker Library above the periodicals room, where you'll find the New Hampshire Revised Statutes Annotated (NHRSA). Learn to look up laws in this collection and learn what the laws in New Hampshire are, particularly those pertaining to "underage drinking," intoxication and protective custody. It's apparently open season on students again, and the Hanover Police, as they were in the fall of '94 when the N.H.

An Open Door

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | July 2, 1998

The Administration has listened to the concerns of students. They have heard the protests against the locked-door policy, and immediate plans for locking the campus have been canceled.

Life, Stress, and Chicago

By Margie DeWard | July 2, 1998

I spent last term working at an international refugee center in Chicago. It was, to say the least, an absolutely wonderful experience, perhaps even the best 10 weeks of my short life. When I first decided to apply for a Tucker Fellowship, I talked to a lot of people who had done them and other internships in the past.

The Hard Guy

By Kevan Higgins | June 30, 1998

I was gone to South America, but now I'm back to bore you with trite Dartmouth opinions that will change your whole outlook and give you entirely new perspectives about absolutely nothing. Today's topic for discussion is the Dartmouth 'hard guy.' You know the ones.

Moynihan's Remarks Reflect Prejudice and Ignorance

By Scott Brown | June 24, 1998

To the Editor: Among the reactions to the Pakistani testing of nuclear devices was a comment by Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan (Democrat - New York) lamenting the development of an "Islamic bomb." Since that comment was reported on May 29, I have looked in vain for an attack on such an outrageously bigoted statement.

Assembly Lockdown

By Casey Noga | June 24, 1998

Picture this: you're in your room somewhere in the River when suddenly, the blitz you've been waiting for pops up on JoshGreenMail(TM). The "study session" cue you've been waiting for all evening has arrived, and instantly you're off to Topliff to meet with your ... lab partner, we'll say.

More Social Options Necessary

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | June 2, 1998

Although last weekend's shortage of parties was a result of both the impending end of the term and the College's recently implemented alcohol policies, it demonstrates the Greek system's central role in campus social life. Since the new policies promote closed, invite-only parties, next year's unaffiliated students and freshmen will be even more excluded from the Greek system than they currently are. However, it is not the new alcohol policies that pose the greatest social obstacle to students -- rather, it is the College's current inability to provide late-night social options for students. Policies aimed at reducing alcohol-related social options will fail if they are not complemented by increased and strengthened social events on campus.
