'11 Girl: Hey that's a sick jacket. where'd you get it? '10 Girl: Theta Delt. '14 Girl in FoCo: You mean that TDX over there?
Doug Gonzalez / The Dartmouth Senior Staff Doug Gonzalez / The Dartmouth Senior Staff Why has tofu always had such a bad rep?
I can think of no other issue plaguing Dartmouth that so urgently begs forum discussion and student action than the egregious misallocation of iMacs on first floor Berry. As Dartmouth students, I think most of us are very cognizant of the fact that we represent a great amount of diversity (be it economic, racial, geographic or in the case of certain mythological-mobile-theatre-players psychological diversity). So of course, this diversity implies that there is a broad range of personal resources to which different students have access and it is imperative that students with greater resources begin to understand that they must take advantage of their means and leave Dartmouth's resources to the less privileged and more deserving. What does this have to do with frst floor Berry iMacs?
The other day, I ate a banana. I ate this banana on the way from my room to the library. Pretty simple act, right?
Throughout the cotentious fight for equality at the College there has been a protest, a painted Winter Carnival sculpture and four shanties on the Green. Dartmouth integrated 40 years before the other Ivies with Edward Mitchell, member of the Class of 1828, gaining admission to the college as the first African American.
What does it take to get Dartmouth students riled up? There was much talk and little action in the wake of recent Hanover Police initiatives and the closing of the beloved swim docks on the Connecticut River.
This week's Mirror is about Forums (capital "F" because WE MEAN IT). This seems serious. If I make fun of it, I'll probably be the cause of the next discussion.
Analogy: Student Activism is to Dartmouth as Global Warming is to the Environment. In other words, it doesn't exist. OK, so that last part was a joke; I'm not Glenn Beck.
This year has been chock full of controversial issues on campus, but anyone who has delved into Dartmouth's history would be struck with a serious case of deja vu.
We have too many forums at this school. Every time a big, sensitive or seemingly difficult-to-tackle problem arises, the preferred response, it would appear, is for Student Assembly (or maybe a random dean) to hold an open discussion in Collis Commonground to "start a campus dialogue" about the issue at hand.
Auriell Towner / The Dartmouth Staff Auriell Towner / The Dartmouth Staff Fall is arguably the most beautiful time in New England.
There are a few things that are consistent about every term at Dartmouth and campus controversy is one of them.
'11 Girl 1: ew. i just remembered someone spilled beer on my head last night and i haven't showered'11 Girl 2: i slept in pee and didn't shower.
Everyone who goes to Dartmouth went to high school. It's the most obvious common experience we've all had.
True or False: I go to Dartmouth. Therefore, I am entitled to a better job, faster car and hotter spouse than you. At Dartmouth, we work hard and we play even harder.
Here's some food for thought. When I asked my friends what they thought stereotypes of private and public schools were, they answered as follows:Private schools: "exclusive, sheltered, academically superior, rich." "Snobby, overly cocky, pretentious." "Preppy, anal, good at blowing things out of proportion, arrogant." "Snooty, they think they're better than everyone."Public schools: "middle-class, underfunded, poor academic performance, overcrowded." "Stupid, poor." "Laid-back, heavily reliant on parents, somewhat immature socially and lacking in fashion sense." Ouch. We all know the stereotypes.
At some point in my life I've been told that a grown man should never 1) enjoy the lyrical prose of female pop stars, 2) watch children's television (Jersey Shore?) and 3) cry.
Let me preface this article by saying that it is based on my experience at a public school, so this may not apply to everyone.
This issue began as a conversation with someone about our experiences in high school in relation to our life at Dartmouth.
