Point and Counterpoint (Davis)

|

Don't get me wrong -- I love a good dance party. I like rocking out with my girls to jams like Ashlee Simpson's "L.O.V.E.," faking a B-side swing dance with a gentleman friend or two and going home with tired feet to the E.B.A's delivery man and my ravenous roommate.

Breaking Through: The Ultimate Feminine Indulgence

|

I recently made the mistake of watching late-night television with several guy friends. Exhausted with "Seinfeld" reruns and college basketball, they finally settled for a Cinemax showing of "A Tale of Two Titties."

Granite in our Brains: The Mixtape

"What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns and watching violent videos, but nobody worries about kids listening to thousands -- literally thousands -- of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss.

While looking through The Dartmouth's archives in preparation for this issue, I came across an interesting sentence in a Verbum Ultimum from April 1969.

'50s Fashions Revisited

Once again, full skirts impeccably hemmed to the mid-calf, exaggerated cinched waists and gorgeously flaunted collar bones and bustlines are back.

Girl [about Winter Carnival]: The size was small, but the enjoyment was large. '10 TriDelt: I don't even smoke.

Is Campus Activism Dead?

|

On May 6, 1969 at 3:15 p.m., Dartmouth College was in a veritable state of chaos. Carrying "hammers, nails, and padlocks" a group of 75 students ran into Parkhurst and calmly explained to those inside that they were about to take the building over.
