As the campus anticipated Green Key Weekend, memories of this year's Winter Carnival, marked by the surprise announcement of the Trustees' Social and Residential Life Initiative and subsequent cancellation of all registered parties for the weekend, were on students' minds.
Whether they were roasting stolen pigs, hunting down women, drinking alcohol or just working, alumni interviewed by The Dartmouth said they had strong memories of what Green Key Weekend was like during their careers at the College.
Over the past year, our campus has had many discussions about categories that we use to define and divide ourselves. In the fall, the ghetto party sparked dialogue about race. In the winter, the "Greek issue" was paramount. Most recently, we have been confronted by the issues of sexual and religious preferences. Palaeopitus would like to bring to your attention the topic of socioeconomic status (SES). It is a less salient categorization than the previously mentioned ones, but for that exact reason this "silent denominator" is one of the most important to recognize.

Freshman trips aren't just for freshmen anymore.
Dartmouth students begin their careers in a most unusual way -- wielding large frame packs on their backs.
Student Assembly President Frode Eilertsen '99 ran into the Collis Student Center after an evening workout to chat about the Assembly and his personal beliefs.
Every time that I have a break and get to see high school friends, I begin questioning whether Dartmouth is all that it is cracked up to be. At the Big Green, students tend to develop an air of superiority quickly. I was first exposed to this attitude by a buddy of mine whose sister and brother went to Dartmouth. He complained about the holier-than-thou attitude that came with being trapped in the Upper Valley with 4,000 ex-valedictorians. However, he also wanted to be one of them.
