This spring, Dartmouth alumni will have the opportunity to nominate a new trustee to the Board of Trustees, replacing retiring Trustee Nancy Jeton '76.
The subject of voting procedures in alumni elections has been the topic of several opinion pieces and letters to The Dartmouth in the past five months.
To the Editor: Your April 1 issue contained a lively article on the Hanover Conservation Council's annual meeting ["Conservation Council Holds Forum," The Dartmouth]. It nicely captured the spirit of the meeting and covered well the topics of this complex and varied agenda.
To the Editor: Your interesting first article on student-athletes is subtitled "Academic, athletics and social life concerns often prove daunting for student-athletes at an Ivy-League College." You illustrate this theme with Sally Annis '97, "one of the small group of athletes whose excellence in the classroom is repeated in the gym." Not wishing to take any credit away from Sally, I would argue that she is more the norm than the exception. I have been privileged to know and to work with some outstanding students over the past several years and I find that at least half of them are seriously engaged in athletics.
