Too many empty seats

By Bill Sjogren | April 9, 2007

To the Editor: I certainly agree with Philip Kenol '10 that current undergraduates should get priority at College events ("Filling Seats the Right Way," April 6). I confess that, as an outsider, I have attended many of these Dartmouth events such as the Green-grown Pilobolus Montgomery lecture this past Wednesday, and the three nights with Budd Schulberg '36, screenwriter/author/boxing analyst/raconteur nonpareil, in honor of his film society award a couple of years ago. However, at these two in particular, I must admit to some shock as an alumnus and College advocate at the lack of turnout by the resident Dartmouth community.
