The Washington Post’s opinion section has long been a hub of diverse thought, featuring voices ranging from staunch conservatives like George Will to progressive columnists like Katrina Vanden Heuvel. It has provided a platform for foreign policy hawks and anti-interventionists alike, for free-market champions and economic populists, for establishment figures and radical critics of power. Last week, Amazon’s billionaire founder Jeff Bezos pulled off one of the most grotesque threats to American media in recent history.

While some students prefer to spend their summers at home, those warmer months can also provide an opportunity to pursue internships abroad. Those who choose the latter might find themselves at the end of Ben Joel ’27’s camera lens. Joel, a digital storytelling intern for the Dickey Center for International Understanding, spent last summer traveling around the world to shadow other Dickey Center “interns at work” and document “their experience through photography, videography and storytelling,” according to the center’s website. Starting in Costa Rica, Joel visited interns across the United States, Vietnam, Kosovo and Kenya, documenting his journey along the way. The Dartmouth sat down with Joel to discuss his extensive journey and reflect on his experiences.

As of June of 2023, race-based affirmative action is no longer permissible, and even when it was practiced, it failed to achieve its goals. When former Supreme Court Justice Lewis Powell authored his 1978 opinion in Regents of the University of California v. Bakke — which determined whether affirmative action violated the Equal Protections Clause of the 14th Amendment — he justified race-based admissions as a means to achieve diversity that fosters a “robust exchange of ideas.” The deference that universities were granted when selecting their incoming classes was thus carefully predicated on achieving the educational benefits that flow from “viewpoint diversity,” a point that is almost entirely overlooked in the modern discourse surrounding this issue.

On Wednesday, Feb. 12, there were more people than chairs in the Wheelock House, the Christian Living Learning Community and former home of Eleazar Wheelock. Spencer Reece, a visiting poet and Episcopalian priest, stood at the front of the room like it was a Sunday service. He led the group in “Shalom,” a call-and-response prayer begetting peace. As I repeated the Hebrew benediction, moving from whispers to shouts, I felt aware of how rarely an opportunity arises to join a group of strangers and sing without shame.

In my sophomore year at Dartmouth, I auditioned for the Dog Day Players — a highly competitive campus improv group. At least 100 people showed up to the initial audition. We were packed into a lecture hall, way over capacity. We filled every seat, poured out onto the staircase and lined the walls. It was loud and boisterous. People puffed their chests, deepened their voices and exuded extroverted confidence. I knew I had to make a strong impression. Despite having no prior experience, I managed to make the room roar with laughter and was selected, among a few others, for a second round.

Between “midterm” papers that, for some reason, fall closer to the end of the term than the middle, and the general burnout-induced slump that plagues campus, week eight historically possesses an unforgiving character. There are occasions when we hit the lottery and have perfectly linear schedules in which our assignments and exams space themselves out, but more likely than not, it’s the opposite.
