In the weeks since the 2024 presidential election, various groups at Dartmouth have hosted events to discuss former President Donald Trump’s victory — from a panel with government professors to a Conservative Students of Dartmouth ‘Election Debrief’ and election-related listening circles at the Tucker Center.
Since President-elect Donald Trump won the election, colleges and universities have been grappling with his victory’s potential impacts on higher education.
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.
The First Year Harm Reduction Policy, also known as “frat ban,” is officially over, having concluded on Nov. 6. As members of the Class of 2028 begin to explore a new social scene, I want to reflect on how the frat ban — the restriction on first-year students from attending non-Greek Life Council approved events in Greek spaces for the first eight weeks of the fall term — has shaped our social lives and college careers so far. Based on my experience, I would argue that the frat ban has enriched my perspective on Greek Life at Dartmouth, allowing me to engage with Greek spaces in ways that often go unnoticed in typical college discourse.
Re: Men’s basketball team votes to unionize
The Steering Committee of the General Faculty — a College administrative group that manages general faculty meetings and agendas — will release a recommendatory report with “more concrete guidance” for statements written by centers, departments, institutes and programs at the beginning of the winter term, according to Provost David Kotz.

According to lead singer and manager Alan Hatch ’25, the formation of campus band Blue Moose was not without obstacles. After kicking off discussions to start a band in the spring of 2023, Hatch and other initial members — including keys player Elliot Alberts ’25 and Wyatt Ellison ’25 — realized they had “different ideas and visions for the band,” Hatch explained. The new group soon decided to part ways.
Each time course selection opens up, many Dartmouth students are faced with a shared dilemma: “Do I take a course that genuinely interests me or one in which I can obtain an easy A?” When faced with this binary, students often choose the latter. Although these so-called ‘layups’ — courses considered to be easy A’s — may be uninteresting to them or irrelevant to their focus of study, many students opt into them to improve their GPA.
When someone tells you they’re an economics major, you probably think you understand them. They’re a corporate sellout, wishing they could major in finance but settling for the closest alternative at a liberal arts institution — all in preparation for a career in investment banking or consulting. It’s almost embarrassing to admit you’re an economics major. There has been, perhaps rightfully, a growing critique of students turning away from the more traditional liberal arts majors like English and history in favor of more ‘professionally applicable’ ones like economics and computer science.
After a weekend sweep, men’s ice hockey is nationally ranked for the first time since the 2019-2020 season at 17th. The Big Green defeated nationally-ranked Quinnipiac 4-2 on Nov. 8 and demolished Princeton 5-1 the next day to start the season 4-0-0 for the first time since the 1957-1958 season.

The move marks the Hood’s first traveling exhibition in over a decade, according to curatorial affairs associate director and Hood Indigenous Art curator Jami Powell.
In the wake of the battering Democrats received on Nov. 5, party members can agree on one thing — they need to appeal to working-class voters again. What they cannot agree on is exactly how to do so. One of the views I have encountered most frequently in the aftermath of the election is that Democrats lost the working-class voter by shifting too far left — and thus need to swing back to the center to meet Americans “where they’re at.” If you enjoyed losing the way you just did, then be my guest and move back to the same centrist ideologies that have more than run their course over the past 50 years. If you want to stay competitive, it’s time to take a calculated risk and embrace leftist economic policy and populist messaging.
