I'd like to offer you my congratulations on your landslide victory this Monday. A lot of students -- myself included -- are really excited to see how you will continue and improve on Molly Bode's great work as student body president. As you get to work on a host of issues this spring, I want to bring your attention to a campus concern that nearly every candidate that has ever run for student body president in recent history has addressed: the need to reform Dartmouth's underage drinking policy.
