Before I arrived at Dartmouth last fall, I had not skied in over four years. Nonetheless, I eagerly bought a discounted student pass to the Dartmouth Skiway over winterim. I was ready to embrace the icy New England winter and revive my rusty skiing skills at a mountain just 13 miles away from campus. Sure enough, escaping to the Skiway, whether on a cloudy Tuesday morning or a bustling Saturday afternoon, has been a highlight of my term and made the season feel much less dreary.

How many of you have walked home at 2 a.m. in freezing weather? Missed the last bus to Summit on Juniper and found yourself without a place to sleep? Woken up with the flu or some other mystery illness and needed a ride to Dick’s House — yet opting, without a car, to trek 15 minutes through the snow with tissues and cough drops falling from your pockets?

In February, wintry weather is unavoidable at Dartmouth — from the freezing temperatures to the snow-filled walkways, the cold is sure to follow wherever you go. While some students respond by hunkering down indoors, students in BIOL 61, “End of Winter: Winter Ecology,” are instead choosing to brave the cold.

Dear Diary — I mean, Mirror,

Wind in my face, the crunch of ice and the sun on my back — what better way to spend a Saturday morning? Last weekend, I teetered precariously on my rental figure skates across Lake Morey as couples, children and even dogs zoomed past me. Without the edge of an ice rink, which I would normally cling to, I resorted to squeezing my friend’s hand for the entire hour and a half spent on the frozen lake. Despite my lack of skill, I managed to remain upright and enjoy the crisp air and wintry views. As I skated along the three-mile track, I understood why so many Dartmouth students brave the cold for this activity — skating outside was an experience like no other.

Ever dreamed of posting your very own fish picture on Instagram, posing proudly with your catch of the day? Look no further. Since the spring of 2023, the College’s ice and fly fishing classes have provided Dartmouth students with hands-on, unique outdoor adventures.

For the second consecutive year, The Dartmouth conducted a survey polling the experiences and opinions of the current first-year class — the Class of 2028 — after their first term at Dartmouth. Students were asked to compare their high school and college experiences and share their views on Dartmouth’s Orientation Week, academics and campus culture.

As I sat in my home in New Zealand last fall, staring at the blank exchange application in front of me, I wondered what attending an American college would be like. Is it really how the movies make it out to be? Would there be Greek life and football games with roaring crowds? Scandalous Halloween costumes and beer pong? Out of the 120 different universities that my school, the University of Auckland, partners with for exchange terms, Dartmouth undeniably stood out to me. The allure of an isolated New England town, combined with the College’s liberal arts focus and traditional architecture, drew me to its campus. I believed these elements would lead to an immersive college experience, rich with community, history and tradition.

As the chirping of cicadas hushes to the soft crunch of fallen leaves, the changing sounds of the Upper Valley signal that fall has arrived. This shift from summer to fall begs the question: Does the music playing from our headphones change as drastically as the music of the natural world?

College President Sian Leah Beilock wrote in her apology to the Dartmouth community after 89 people were arrested on May 1 that she had no choice but to “ask the Hanover Police Department for help taking down the encampment” in order to “put the safety and wellbeing of students first.” Yet, by comparing the current administration’s militarized response to student encampments with that of previous administrations, it is evident that Beilock’s suppression of protest is unprecedented and dangerous.

It’s summer in Hanover. The snow has melted, the mud has dried and the cold has (mostly) departed. A whole world of possibilities has opened up for the Class of 2026 upon their return to campus for the fabled “sophomore summer.” Since most students only get to experience this special term once, students must make the most of it, both in and out of Hanover. Enter the bucket list: eight activities for anyone looking to explore the Upper Valley. Last summer, The Dartmouth discussed swimming spots, stargazing and the jewelry studio. This year, we return with Ledyard’s free boat rentals and The New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

We appreciate that our colleagues working on student well-being face incredible pressure and are constrained by Dartmouth’s definition of the problem. We were, nonetheless, stunned by the framing of the May 23 “Day for Community” as a “journey of reflection, connection and community building following the protest on the Green on May 1,” according to a message from the College’s chief health and wellness officer, Estevan Garcia. Last Thursday’s event was advertised as an opportunity for healing — healing, apparently, from the peaceful May 1 protest, but not from the mass arrests, physical injuries and collective harm inflicted on students, faculty and staff by the police response to that protest.
