KARR'S CHRONICLES: What I Have Learned
By Ryan Karr | May 15, 2009As the sun sets on what has been four fantastic years at Dartmouth, I have time to reflect on the good times and the not so good times, my proudest moments and my most embarrassing and, in general, what I have learned along the way. It's amazing how much how much I've changed with the knowledge I've gained over the past four years, yet it's also fascinating (at least to me) to acknowledge how much I haven't learned and how much Dartmouth has failed to change me.

KARR'S CHRONICLES: Toe to Teeth
By Ryan Karr | April 28, 2009In case you haven't noticed yet, the weather has been gorgeous in Hanover lately. Sure, we got a little rain the other day, but that is behind us, and spring is in full bloom -- even feeling like summer at times. My colleagues, Jordan Rose '09 and Michael Knapp '09, stumbled through a vain attempt at giving a few trite suggestions as to what to do when when the weather is warm in the "Toe to Toe" column on Sunday, but I think I can do better.

KARR'S CHRONICLES: Madness Preview
By Ryan Karr | February 25, 2009This is my favorite time of the year -- when February turns to March. The coming of March means two things this year: (1) A new U2 album on March 3, and (2) the official beginning of March Madness, the always-shocking, ever-glorious college basketball tournament that is one of the greatest sporting events in the country.

By Ryan Karr | February 19, 2009Several weeks ago, I received some criticism from Cornell students and fans when I claimed that basketball is the only thing that Cornell currently does better at than Dartmouth.
