Recent Suicides Lead to Questions About Dartmouth

|

The College has recently witnessed the suicide of three members of the Dartmouth Community. While it is probably useless to view these successive events as a trend, there is value at looking at one of the commonalties that runs through all three deaths: Each occurred when the student was away from campus. It is important to recognize the limitations of generalization regarding this subject.

Luxon's reaction to 'Hell Night' video showing was 'incredible'

|

To the Editor: Wednesday night (Oct. 18, 1995), I went to the widely attended program in the Topliff lounge, where Professor Luxon presented an interrupted "Hell Night" documentation and left before leading a discussion about the material and the Greek system at Dartmouth as he had been advertised to do.

Disruption of 'Hell Night' Video Was an Attack on Dartmouth

|

To the Editor: The organized, intentional disruption of Professor Tom Luxon's presentation of the Alpha Chi Alpha Fraternity "Hell Night" tape and the Alpha Delta Fraternity "Sex Room" tape was a violation of the most basic standards of decency and civility and an attack on Dartmouth's community of scholars. Professor Luxon was invited to present his analysis of two documents and then lead a discussion about the issues they raised.
