Daughters Before Dollars

To the Editor: Where are our women? As a proud member of the Greek system and a proud woman of Dartmouth, I am still waiting to hear what the females on the Board of Trustees -- who represent all of the women of Dartmouth -- have to say about the unfair and blatantly inconsiderate decision to allow Beta back on campus. Sadly there are only three women on the 18-member Board of Trustees, but that means there are three powerful Dartmouth leaders who can step up and advocate for the women of the College on important issues like the one at hand. I truly hope that all of the Trustees, male and female, are closely monitoring the emotional response from Dartmouth students and alumni who oppose the College's decision to bring back Beta.

Friday Night Rock features 'bar band' The Hold Steady

This Friday night in the Fuel club inside Collis, "bar band" indie rockers The Hold Steady will perform for a crowd of students eager to relax after a tough week of pre-Thanksgiving papers and enjoy the energy and charisma of up-tempo rock. Thanks to the funding of Programming Board and the organizational work of the Friday Night Rock committee, this New York City-based band, originally from Minnesota, promises to entertain students with what a Pitchfork reviewer described simply as a "harsh, emphatic beat." In 2004, The Hold Steady released their debut album, "Almost Killed Me", under the Frenchkiss Records label.

Dartmouth mainstay Pinkas readies tribute to Schumann, Loeffler

On Tuesday at 7 p.m., a sound familiar to many of Dartmouth's music students will fill Spaulding Auditorium, as Dartmouth's resident pianist Sally Pinkas will perform her autumn recital along with guest musicians Steve Larson on viola and Thomas Gallant on oboe. Erma Gattie Mellinger, a member of Dartmouth's music faculty, was scheduled to lend her vocals to the concert, but unfortunately had to drop out due to a lingering illness. Pinkas has taught piano and chamber-music classes at Dartmouth since 1985; in the upcoming spring term, she plans on taking a group of Dartmouth students to London for the foreign study program in music.

'Yunnan' reveals beauty of culture in danger

Last Thursday, students, locals, and those visiting Hanover filled Spaulding Auditorium as a weeklong celebration of arts and culture culminated with "Yunnan Revealed," a show featuring a mix of indigenous instruments and music from a southwestern province in China. The Yunnan province -- an area slightly smaller than the state of Texas -- is a predominantly mountainous area in southwestern China that is comprised of 25 different ethnic groups and is thus widely regarded as one of the most culturally diverse places in the world.
