After hours of lectures, club meetings or dance parties in fraternity basements, students often need a way to refuel. Rather than order from Domino’s or settle for whatever is left in the Choates vending machines, students tend to head to grab a bite in one familiar place: Late Night at the Class of 1953 Commons, colloquially known as Foco.

It used to be so simple. You could just go up to a classmate on the playground and ask to play tag — that’s all it took to start a new friendship when we were five. Even through our awkward phases in middle school and cliquey years in high school, making friends was still relatively straightforward. You could sit next to someone in class, practice the same sport or work on a group project together, and instantly you would have something in common. In college — though many people have to start from scratch — communal living spaces, awkward freshmen parties and late-night study sessions likewise force us to mingle until we emerge with a loose set of friends. But what about the “real world,” where there are no lab partners or sandboxes? How can you make friends when leading a life of comparative isolation?

It’s 15 degrees outside, and stiff winds urge me not to make the trek from my house to the Class of 1978 Life Sciences Center — but I hunker down, zip my calf-length puffer coat up past my chin and persist. Luckily, as soon as the elevator doors open to reveal the fourth floor, I’m hit with a blast of warm air. I drop my coat on the chair just outside the greenhouse and peer through the glass windows at the jungle that awaits me.

Just after sunset last Friday, I found myself alone on a path bordering the Dartmouth Skiway. On one side of the trail, a house down a steep hill glowed from all sides. Formations of ice covered the cliffside that lined the other and a thin frozen layer coated the ground. As I stood still, I could hear the ice moan and creak; it seemed to come alive when I looked at it for too long, breathing and shifting under my feet. Alone in the dark, it felt like staring a wild animal in the face.

In recent weeks, President-elect Donald Trump has mused about annexing Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal. Although the Canadian threat was seemingly made in jest, Trump is far more serious about levying tariffs — on America’s friends and foes alike. The Republican Party’s turn toward pseudo-isolationism through Trump’s tariff policy is likely to endanger the American economy, hurt America’s allies and help America’s adversaries.
