My Education at Dartmouth

By Gonzalo Lira | February 8, 1995

Next June, I will graduate from Dartmouth College. I used to think that classrooms were where I would learn and grow, but the closer I get to Commencement Day, the more I realize that my fellow students are the ones who have provided me with my real education.

Seasonal Fashion Sense

By Erin Murphy | February 8, 1995

As we begin 1995 and the College celebrates 23 years of coeducation, I would like to discuss an important element in the quest for equitable gender relations at Dartmouth -- fashion.

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.

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.

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.
