How You Sow, You Shall Reap
Friday, my girlfriend and I were in line at Food Court like everyone else. This guy in front of us tries to pay for his dinner with his ID, but it doesn't scan through.

Every day as I walk to class I am struck by the number of people taking campus tours, blocking the sidewalks and doorways as I try to avoid being trampled by a backwards-walking guide.
Unless You Can Afford It
To the Editor: I was sorry to see in Aaron Klein's column "An Illiberal Art Department" [The Dartmouth, July 25, 1996] that Mr. Klein had misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misquoted what I conveyed to him at our meeting in October of 1995. In answer to his accusation that the Studio Art Department "dismisses" glassblowing as an art, let me point out that there is a senior major in our department whose main area of interest is glassblowing.
Heterosexist Attitudes
To the Editor: Your article announcing the cancellation of the Fall 1996 Foreign Study Program in Fez, Morocco may have created some confusion about the future of this program.
To the Editor: In the Profile of the July 23 issue of The Dartmouth, a couple of items were inadvertently misquoted, and I would like to clarify these for the record.
The editorial on July 5th, "Why Men Ought to Be Unequal," defending Francis Fukuyama's thesis in The End of History and the Last Man, evinces the inherent problem of political science.
Today I am fasting. Tisha B'Av, "the Ninth day of the month of Av," began at sundown last night on the Jewish Calendar.
To the Editor: I have been consistently pleasantly surprised by the amount of coverage The Dartmouth gives to important educational events occurring within the context of student life on this campus.
I'm not going to start complaining that there is no Old White European Distributive, or that I haven't read enough of the history of art.
As I sat through the last half hour of the discussion on Wednesday night in Collis Commonground, I was struck by the hypocritical actions of the people around me.
To the Editor: I was glad to see Rich Akerboom's letter about Tubestock in the Dartmouth, since the Boomer and his friends were, I believe, the ones who started Tubestock, now one of the Upper Valley's coolest yearly events. However, I was a little dismayed to see Mr. Akerboom mention Vermont and New Hampshire laws on "underage drinking and public intoxication", since there ain't no such animal. While Dartmouth has a regulation prohibiting underage drinking, neither Vermont nor New Hampshire has any such law. The relevant New Hampshire statue is NHRSA (NH Revised Statutes Annotated) 179:10, "Unlawful Possession" (of alcoholic beverages by those under 21). There have been attempts in recent years in the New Hampshire Legislature to expand the scope of 179:10 so as to prohibit consumption as well, but these have been overwhelmingly voted down. The only relevant Vermont statute is VSA Title 7, paragraph 657, "Minors misrepresenting age or procuring or possessing liquors; alcohol and driving education." Attorney Stephen Borofsky of the New Hampshire Civil Liberties Union came to Hanover in the fall of 1994 to represent Dartmouth students and others under 21 who maintained that they had been falsely arrested by Hanover Police, who seemed to be enforcing College regulations instead of New Hampshire laws.
The U.S. House of Representatives voted on Friday to not recognize same-sex marriages, to allow states to do the same, and to allow states not to recognize a same-sex marriage that occurred in another state.
To the Editor: On behalf of the sisters of Kappa Kappa Gamma, we were very surprised to read The Dartmouth this morning.
To the Editor: I would like to make some suggestions to those considering attending this year's Tubestock in the hope that things will proceed more smoothly this year.
To the Editor: When people think of Dartmouth College they picture a small, closely-knit community where students have no need to lock their doors.
Are administrative offices at Dartmouth set up to help or hinder students? Well for $30,000 a year, you'd figure that they would be set up to coddle their Ivy League students through these first few years of living away from home.
This past weekend unknown assailants broke into Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority's house then damaged property and vandalized the house in a most horrific fashion.
