Memories of a friendship
We must go through Dartmouth twice - once in the four years we're given here in Hanover, another time over the rest of our lives.

"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.
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.
Suspend your disbelief for this column, and imagine a special place with me. This place is called Summersville. In Summersville, the boys date boys and the girls date girls.
Students have still not seen a copy of an internal report on the education department that recommends its closing.
If you walk out of the Hop via the exit near the mailboxes, you will see a plaque embedded in the Hanover Inn on your left.

Establishing a socially viable atmosphere in the New Hampshire wilderness has proven as difficult as keeping elements of urban life out of it.
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.

Within the next week, the Class of 1993 Senior Executive Committee must create a ceremony to replace the now defunct clay pipes tradition.
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.
Every weekend here at Dartmouth, students engage in multifarious extracurricular activities. With a little luck, such activities will have very little to do with abortion.

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.
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.
Many of you have probably seen the "Women dig it" commercial. A man takes a lie detector test as he answers the question, "Why buy a Paseo?" Two buttons appear on the screen three times.
