Sex, Love and Liberalism

By Won Joon Choe | February 7, 1995

When Chris Kelly '96, suggests in his column "Lessons to Learn From 'Spanking The Monkey'" (Jan. 30) that there should be more explicit and widespread campus discourse about sex, he champions a central, and deplorable, aspect of modernity: the replacement of the idea of love with the reality of sex. Kelly is not the first to revolt against love in the name of sex.

Ugly America

By Matt Nisbet | February 6, 1995

Standing with my arms folded at last Friday's Dave Matthew's Band concert, my stomach began to churn and my mind to turn. The opening act, Ugly Americans, sung such eloquent lyrics as, "Marijuana.

Laser Tag -- Not Just a Game

By Chris Kelly | February 6, 1995

I was convinced last week by a number of people that the best way to spend my Friday evening would be playing laser tag at Webster Hall. Upon consenting to the activity, a few things flashed through my mind.

The Right to Life at Any Age

By Kevin Walsh | February 6, 1995

During the elections of this past Novem ber, many deep changes took place, not only in who is in office and who is not, but also in the area of what is accepted and rejected by a majority of our society. Particularly in the pro-life arena, both positive and negative changes came to light. One of the most remarkable stories of the elections in November which has been deliberately ignored and played down is the overwhelming evidence they provided to demonstrate that the United States is turning against abortion.

COI Proposal Benefits All

By Brian Sung | February 3, 1995

The Committee on Instruction's new course-drop proposal is a step in the right direction towards greater academic freedom for Dartmouth students. The proposal, to allow students to drop courses without professors' permission until two weeks before the end of each term, gives students greater freedom to judge for themselves whether or not they want to stay in a course.

New Dining Plan is unfair

By Seth Goldman | February 3, 1995

Getting Your Money's Worth

By Brian Deaner | February 3, 1995

It was Tuesday night and I was up late tooling for a Psychology 26 multiple-choice mid-term, mindlessly memorizing the potentially disastrous effects of sleep deprivation on a student's retention of rote facts.

Further Inquiry into the SA

By Amit Chibber | February 2, 1995

I am grateful for the opportunity to reach the college through Dartmouth's print media. It is through this forum that I had wished not to offend the Student Assembly, but to study it in a serious manner. Legislative and representative bodies are important entities, and they consume a great deal of their members' time.

Chimera of an Administrative Solution

By Hosea Harvey | February 1, 1995

Charles Dickens wrote in the opening lines of A Tale of Two Cities, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." His first paragraph rings true for the status of race relations at the majority of Ivy League schools. Since the early 1990s, steps have been taken to further develop the quality of resources available to increase the overall satisfaction of students affected by issues pertaining to diversity.

A Closer Look at Changes in WDCR

By Justin Ruben | February 1, 1995

In the face of events which deny our understanding, we often fall back on our paradigmatic beliefs in order to contextualize them, to explain the inexplicable. So when I read about Dartmouth Broadcasting's incomprehensible intention to replace the College's AM free-form radio station, 1340 WDCR, with a 24-hour news station, I turned to the paradigms which we at Dartmouth use to understand our world.
