On a warm September night, a group of male students walked past Gold Coast Lawn, past an outdoor fall concert. One pulled at his jacket as he made his way toward Webster Avenue.
Safety and Security is not imposing a curfew or changing its party-monitoring practices. A rumor circulating Wednesday and Thursday suggested that Safety and Security would shut down parties and require non-members to leave Greek houses by 1 a.m. on weeknights and 2 a.m. on weekends, but College officials have confirmed that this is false.
Starting this fall, several Greek houses will work with Sustainability Office intern Malcolm Salovaara ’17 to explore the option of planting permaculture gardens in their houses.The gardens would grow plants and vegetables that only needed to be planted once and could be harvested each year.
I spent this summer on the Dartmouth Outing Club’s Cabin and Trail Crew. It was a summer filled withstimulating intellectual conversations, crack (this, NOTthis), shenanigans and lots of manual labor. I injured my shoulder while doing work during the third week and got put on the injured-squad of cabin crew. This meant that I spent the next seven weeks traveling from cabin to cabin chopping wood, cleaning and dealing with moremouse poopthan I ever care to see again. Through this summer I discovered what, in my opinion, is the most under-utilized resource Dartmouth has to offer —beautifully maintainedcabins all over the wilderness of New Hampshire. Here is a guide to the best that each cabin has to offer, as well as how to rent a cabin.
Next weekend, around 30 students in teams of three or four will embark on the Fifty, a 53.6-mile hike from campus to Mount Moosilauke’s summit. Hike organizers said the trip usually takes about 30 hours, and hikers are supported by five different stations. This fall, 75 people applied to hike and more than 130 applied to support.
Hello ’18s! Welcome to Dartmouth. I remember well when I first found out I had been accepted to the Dartmouth and the feeling of happiness and relief that accompanied it. You had to work hard to get where you are now. Be proud of what you’ve accomplished.
Wednesday night Jasmine went to a Cords show where she heard the song that would revolutionize her Thursday. As she sat on the sticky first floor of Psi U, she heard lyrics that touched her very deeply. “And when you say you won’t forget me / Well I can tell you that’s untrue / ’cause every day since you left me / I've thought less and less of you.” Damn, she thought. So indignant, dismissive and a little bitchy as well. And so she listened to “Changing of the Seasons” by the Two Door Cinema Club as soon as she got back to her dorm that night. She listened to it until she fell asleep. She listened to it on the way to her x-hour the next morning. She listened to it heading up the stairs to The D’s office to work on The Mirror.
Dartmouth students do plenty of “experiential learning” — maybe not the kind that College President Phil Hanlon has campaigned for. But simply being a college student necessitates experiential learning. As I enter the beginning of the end of junior year (aka the end of third week of term), I feel compelled to share what I’ve learned about Dartmouth so far. While I like to consider myself an active, in-the-know member of the Dartmouth community, I mistook a group of overeager high school Model United Nations students for Dimensions prospies a few weekends ago. I was also unaware that Dimensions is going to be taking place over three separate weekends this year until I told this story to my friend the other day. With that information in mind, I have some advice for you underclassmen (as well as any ’18s reading this, if this weekend happens to be one of the Dimensions weekends). Take it at your own risk.
Dressed in neon pink tights, a sequined shirt and a black cape, Blaine Steinberg ’15 sat in Dartmouth Broadcasting’s studio, describing her typical Sunday afternoon to the station’s general manager. Under the name D.J. Blizzle, Steinberg listed her daily routine: she would do CrossFit with her father and then watch her favorite sport of the season: football, hockey or baseball.
A new financial aid program set to launch this spring break will ease the cost of outdoor activities like spending a night at the Moosilauke Ravine Lodge, renting a Dartmouth Outing Club cabin and hiking through the Grand Canyon.
The survey was simple, comprised of only five questions: Gender? Class year? Are you affiliated or unaffiliated? Would you send your son to Dartmouth? Would you send your daughter? Most respondents took less than a minute to answer. When asked to elaborate on the questions, however, I got more variety than the survey could ever provide.
The College has no shortage of traditions, from laps around the Homecoming bonfire to the semi-legal late-night swim that is the Ledyard Challenge. During past Winter Carnivals, however, some combination of cabin fever and a College-sanctioned holiday have driven students to come up with some downright ridiculous traditions.
Though Winter Carnival initially emphasized skiing, the sport’s role in the weekend has decreased over the years. Regardless, certain events still cater to the sport’s tradition at the College. Both the Dartmouth Skiway and the Dartmouth Outing Club have worked to make Carnival skiing-related events fun for all participating students.
Professors are cancelling classes, there’s a giant conglomerate of ice and wood in the center of the Green and my friends are talking eagerly of finishing tomorrow’s midterm so they can start binge drinking immediately afterward. Ah yes, Winter Carnival has finally arrived.

If you're not a varsity athlete, there's no need to worry Dartmouth offers students of all athletic abilities the opportunity to satiate their thirst for competition. Club and intramural teams combine with physical education classes to keep students active and help them take advantage of the Upper Valley wilderness.
For incoming freshmen, Homecoming will likely be the most meaningful big weekend. The late October event is a formal introduction to the Dartmouth community and leads to memorable bonding experiences.
When he arrived on campus in the fall of 1969, Dartmouth was an all-male institution with little diversity. Though Dartmouth's demographics have changed, it still values and encourages strong student-faculty relationships and a commitment to undergraduate teaching, he said.
