Academic honor first

By House Editorial | June 1, 1993

"Fundamental to the principle of independent learning are the requirements of honesty and integrity in the performance of academic assignments both in the classroom and outside." The academic honor principle is a pillar which upholds the basic educational mission of the College.

Mugs keep the tradition

By House Editorial | June 1, 1993

The Class Day Committee, charged with choosing a ceremony to replace the century-old tradition of breaking clay pipes on the Lone Pine stump, came up with a new ritual that maintains all the symbolism of the old. This year, seniors will drink a toast to their class from clay mugs, and then break the mugs on the Lone Pine.

Dartmouth and the closed-minded student

By Rick Connelly | May 28, 1993

A friend and I were chatting the other night at Food Court about some of the different classes we have taken this year and about the love of learning in general. He mentioned his Government 5 class, which changed his outlook on life.

Moving sports team to Division III is a mistake

By Jeffrey English | May 27, 1993

The explanations for the Committee on Admissions and Financial Aid's recommendation that Dartmouth change from NCAA Division I-AA to Division III are dubious and discriminatory. The report endorses the change because it would eliminate 100 recruited athletes, who average $2,525 more per year in financial aid than non-athletes.

Fruit punch on Class Day

By John Strayer | May 26, 1993

Today's issue of The Dartmouth reports that a clay mugs and toast ceremony will replace the old clay pipe smashing ceremony at Class Day. I was instantly enraptured by this idea of participating in a toast with a clay mug and then smashing the mug on the stump of the Lone Pine.

Time for maturity at The Review

By Nina Mcadoo | May 25, 1993

The time has come for me to join The Dartmouth Review debate. Why do the editors of The Review seem to think that it is fun to offend as many people as possible in order to prove their point that the First Amendment is unassailable? What I find frustrating about The Review is that I often agree with them on Dartmouth issues.

A weather conspiracy

By Ryan Carey | May 20, 1993

I am angry. I'm angry about the fact that I have this stupid column to write, angry that I've a paper due Friday, angry that most of my friends are out of school already, and angry that I could be playing Frisbee -- not disc -- instead of doing any work. Obviously, the source of my aggressions is the weather.

Greeks must stop harassment

By Rebecca Bishop | May 20, 1993

This is not an assault on the Greek system. Many good times have preceded this incident. I only hope that the following will be a constructive lesson to make an enjoyable, improving system even better.

Hopkins Institute should back off

By Rick Connelly | May 19, 1993

Recently, an organization of 2,000 Dartmouth alumni has been complaining about what they perceive to be an excessive number of administrators at the College. The group, called the Hopkins Institute, charges that the College is wasting money on these unnecessary employees and that the resulting bureaucracy is cluttering the administration.
