It snowed on Monday, which was also Dimensions — Dartmouth’s admitted students day. Snow isn’t ideal on any spring day, but it’s particularly devastating on the one day meant to showcase all the fun and beauty campus has to offer.  I was halfway across the Green, head down, getting whipped ...

This weekend, I finally decorated my room. I’d put it off for too long; only a knee injury and being trapped in my small corner of campus forced me to finally address my blank walls. I ended up perched on my bed, leg locked and crutches just within reach, trying to press photos into the corners of ...

Happy Week 1 Mirror! It’s Aditi! It’s so good to be back. I spent winter term in Boston, swept up in the hustle and bustle of city life, except “hustle and bustle” is just code for curling up at home during a variety of snowstorms, blizzards, etc. Absence does in fact make the heart grow fonder, ...

I’m currently taking a class called Jane Austen’s Afterlives. I’ve always considered myself an Austen fan, despite the fact that until recently, I’d only read “Pride and Prejudice.” But Austen feels like one of those authors you can claim even with minimal exposure. Her characters and stories ...

This past weekend, I celebrated my friend’s 21st birthday. It’s among the first of what feels like an endless parade of twenty-firsts, milestones that have been hyped up for decades and then arrive, almost absurdly, like any other Saturday night. I walked to CVS at 11:30 p.m. for boxed cake mix, ...

The weather has been strange lately; too warm for October, too bright for this late in the year. Each weekend feels borrowed from summer, the air stubbornly refusing to cool. I walk to class through heat that smells faintly like sunscreen and pavement, and I can’t help feeling like the season has ...

I hate driving, but Hanover makes me crave the peace of life behind the wheel. I spent interim chauffeuring my little sister to and from middle school. I listened to her chatter while methodically navigating the pothole-ridden roads of Connecticut suburbia, dodging protruding mailboxes and the high ...

The end of every term at Dartmouth feels like a reckoning. Finals bring chaos: panicked cramming, desperate office hours, the startling Vox Daily notification reminding you that you’ve overstayed your welcome on 3FB and should really go to bed. The quick pace of these weeks always sparks big questions ...
