The Review Is Not the Problem

|

The power that the Dartmouth Review has over this school is amazing. If one actually believed the whining that goes on, it would appear as though the Review is at the heart of every problem that exists on campus.

Implement Munafo's Task Force

|

With the 25th anniversary of coeducation fast approaching, the time is right for theCollege to create a task force to seriously evaluate the status of women on campus. Women's Resource Center Director Giavanna Munafo approached the administration earlier this term with a plan for a task force, made up of administrators, faculty and students, to examine the "environment for women at Dartmouth." While the College has made great strides toward reaching gender equity, both administrators and students say there is work to be done in and out of the classroom.

WRC is committed to community, honor, expression and opportunity

|

To the Editor: We are writing today to express our deep concern for the students, faculty and staff on our campus who have been and continue to be insulted, derided and attacked either because they are gay, lesbian or bisexual, or because they are people of color or because they are active in the equal rights movements of the 1990s, whatever their own sexual identity, race or ethnicity.

'Reject hatred and affirm community'

|

To the Editor: Two weeks ago some of the members of the Dartmouth Area Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Organization receive an anonymous flyer in their mailboxes proposing this question: "Is it okay to shoot homosexuals?" In response to this frightening and threatening piece of hate mail, DaGLO organized a community forum on campus homophobia.

Awaiting Social Equity

|

As I read Monday's article on gender equity at Dartmouth, I was glad to learn that many of the issues surrounding the Greek system are at least being discussed.

Housing Plan Is Unfair

|

In theory, the Office of Residential Life's new housing plan is a good one. It makes sense for seniors, who have been at the College the longest time, to have the best housing on campus, followed by juniors and then sophomores. But, given that the Dartmouth Plan makes it impossible to predict the numbers of students on campus in any given term and that for the past three years there have not been enough beds on campus fall term to meet the demand, the new housing policy is unfair. The new system unjustly punishes sophomores, who are likely to be on campus in the Fall term and who do not have the advantage of Summer term to look for housing. If recent trends continue, there is a good chance there will be a waiting list this fall for on-campus housing.

Lower Learning

|

I went to see "Higher Learning" last Thursday, and it turned out to be a decision I'm still regretting.
