Romance, Dartmouth Style

By Kevin Findlan | July 3, 1997

I started my Tuesday morning fresh with column ideas, all of which seemed to vanish the moment I picked up The Dartmouth and read through Justin Carrino's comment on "Love, Dartmouth Style" [July 1, 1997]. (Let's face it: he's right about the preponderance of talk about love and romance among college students.) I, too, see the "common-law marriages" and the one-night stands taking place.

DarTalk Is Not Cheap

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | July 1, 1997

DarTalk needs substantial reorganization in order to better serve its customers, the students. Its current management isinconvenient, disorganized and the source of much frustration. Student complaints about unfair rates are unfounded and inaccurate -- current rates are about 10 percent off what we would be charged by AT&T for long distances.

DDS, Help Us Help You

By The Dartmouth Editorial Board | June 23, 1997

By Sam Bonderoff | May 27, 1997

Search Was Executed of a Room in Tabard, Not the Entire House

By Mario Martinus | May 26, 1997

To the Editor, In the May 23 issue of The Dartmouth, the bold, front-page headline read, "Police execute search of Tabard." The officers of the Tabard find the article not only in the poorest of taste, but also blatantly misleading and bad journalism.
