The Neurotic's Wake-Up Call

By Sam Bonderoff | January 28, 1997

The Sunday evening before Martin Luther King's Birthday many of you may have attended the lecture given by Harvard Professor Cornel West in Spaulding Auditorium.

Investment and Entrepreneurship Do Not Make a Better World

By Vince Cannon | January 28, 1997

To the Editor: Flipping through last Friday's copy of The Dartmouth,[Jan. 17] I became disoriented, confused, and afraid ... for a moment I thought I was reading the Wall Street Journal or perhaps a series of articles entitled "Big Green Says, 'Mmm, Capitalism!'" Not only was the entire Weekend Gazette section about our fine young entrepreneurs and the oodles and oodles of money they have made "investing" (read: pushing paper around), but the cover was graced with the Bolivian Ambassador to the United States telling us just how dandy capitalism has been for him. I have yet to see a Weekend Gazette section about Dartmouth students dedicating themselves to community service or careers that may bring about positive change but -- gasp!

What About the Koala Bear?

By Bradford Davis | January 27, 1997

In her commentary in the Jan. 23rd issue of The Dartmouth ["Weekend Update: Just a Joke?"], Michelle Kraemer denounced the joke appearing in an issue of Weekend Update involving the exchange between a koala bear and a prostitute.

Put A Leash On It

By Julie Sloane | January 24, 1997

You can never quite predict which minor events will change your life. We'd like to think that the one dollar lottery ticket or resume sent to a huge company will have an impact, but more often than not, it is something unplanned, something trivial, even something from a very early age.

Where is the Women's Resource Center?

By Scott E. Jacobs | January 24, 1997

Walking past Kiewit, back to the Green, I passed a friend of mine who greeted me with "Hey, where are you coming from?" Not an abnormal greeting, especially by Dartmouth fast-paced-tunnel-vision-busy-students' standards.

Bathroom Etiquette

By Matt Mcdonald | January 23, 1997

There are certain social conventions that we all understand and respect. The one I am addressing today is bathroom etiquette.

Equal Justice Under the Law

By Laura Zachman | January 22, 1997

What a nuisance for Bill Clinton. Not only did he have to go to the trouble of campaigning for reelection this past year and fighting those nasty Whitewater probes, but now he may have to go to court.

A Night at the Pre-Inauguration Ball

By Marc Mcdonald | January 22, 1997

If it wasn't for my press credentials, I might have had a decent seat instead of being banished into the corner with the rest of the press corps. There's no reason I should be seated next to William Safire, who, I was told, was only invited because President Clinton figured he could drunk up Safire in order that the First Lady could get in a couple of good whacks. Tiring of Safire's banter about the origin of "G.O.P.", I politely excused myself and bumped into Tom Hanks who spilled a club soda all over himself.

The Few, The Precious

By Abiola Lapite | January 21, 1997

In the past week, not a few gallons of ink have been spilled expressing outrage at David Berenson's Bear Bones cartoon strip, and the resulting controversy has proved, to say the least, interesting -- interesting, but at the same time, thoroughly disturbing. The roots of the controversy can be traced to a letter in last Monday's Vox Clamantis by Frank Aum '97, in which he accused Berenson of perpetrating negative stereotypes about Asians in his cartoons.
