RE: Campus encampments live updates: Police apparently using Dartmouth Outing Club vans to hold removed individuals
Following the arrests of 90 people during protests on campus Wednesday night, College President Sian Leah Beilock sent an email to the Dartmouth community. In it, she wrote that “the Board has a clearly articulated process for considering [divestment], which was explained to student protesters.” However, a close examination reveals that this process, the criteria underlying divestment decision making and the committee overseeing it are far from clear or accountable. The goal of the “clearly articulated process” actually seems to be an attempt to mire divestment discussions in administrative lingo and to provide administrators with a talking point for their lack of action and accountability to the Dartmouth community. In order to make divestment possible, Dartmouth must change the criteria, governance and process by which it evaluates divestment proposals.
Four years ago, as I prepared to graduate high school, I — like many other members of the Class of 2024 — sat stuck at home on online Zoom school. I frankly do not remember those classes much because, as a native Minnesotan, I spent most of the time glued to my phone, watching video after video of police violence brought upon Minneapolis. These were places where I had childhood memories, neighborhoods where my relatives lived and communities full of people I cared deeply about. I was paralyzed, outraged and could not look away.
In September 2022, following the summertime announcement that College President Sian Leah Beilock would become Dartmouth’s new president, I was a member of the editorial board that congratulated and welcomed Beilock on behalf of this paper. In our editorial, we hoped that Beilock would “steer Dartmouth into a new direction” by using her diverse leadership and academic experience — including her research on “choking under pressure” — to bring new life to Dartmouth and heal a divided College.

Last fall, I wrote an op-ed about the actions College President Sian Leah Beilock took against student protesters on Parkhurst Lawn. I argued that the situation had escalated to an unnecessary extent and that the College’s reasoning behind its arrest of two students set a dangerous precedent for free speech on campus.
On May 1, police arrested 89 students, faculty and community members attending a pro-Palestinian protest on the Green, according to a press release from the Hanover Police Department. Earlier that evening, students had set up five tents on the Green — prompting campus officers from the Department of Safety and Security to warn those gathered that they were in violation of College policy.
At 12:30 p.m. on May 2, Dartmouth faculty and staff held a walkout on the Green in response to the arrests of 90 community members during the May 1 encampment protests. Approximately 100 professors, staff and students gathered to condemn last night’s mass arrests and the police response to the peaceful protesters.
This morning, College President Sian Leah Beilock wrote an email to campus addressing last night’s encampments. Following nearly six hours of protest, 90 people — including Dartmouth students, a Dartmouth history professor, non-Dartmouth students and two reporters for The Dartmouth covering the event — were arrested, according to past reporting by the Dartmouth. According to a media release statement by the Hanover Police Department chief of police Charles B. Dennis, those who were arrested were charged with “multiple offenses including criminal trespass and resisting arrest.”
