On May 21, a “supermajority” of participating Dartmouth Undergraduate Advisors voted 43 to 6 in favor of unionization, according to SWCD vice chair Hosaena Tilahun ’25, who also serves as a UGA. The students will now begin a negotiating and bargaining process with the school.
TTLG: A Brave Space, If We Can Keep It
(05/22/24 7:10am)
As a German major, I’ve learned about the student protests that swept Germany in the late 1960s more times than I can count. Most Americans are aware of the related protests that occurred in the U.S. around the same time, which were largely in response to the Vietnam War and the civil rights movement. Fewer, though, know about their European counterparts. In Germany, these protests were in part fueled by anger towards the Vietnam War, but their primary focus was the lack of critical reflection in German society on its past Nazism. At the time, it had not even been 30 years since Hitler lost power.

Editor’s Note
(05/22/24 7:00am)
It’s reached the point in the term where I look back on the past nine weeks and wonder how the days passed by so quickly. This term, I’m feeling the fickleness of time even more so than normal — on Friday, my younger brother and only sibling will graduate from high school. It feels like just yesterday he was 14 years old and starting his freshman year.
Keggy the Keg Stands Out

Whether he’s spotted in Baker-Berry Library or waddling around the Green, Keggy the Keg always stands out in a crowd.
Eating Around the Upper Valley
(05/22/24 7:15am)
There’s a reason why we call Dartmouth a “bubble.” With many students lacking a car of their own on campus, it can be difficult to find a short reprieve from Hanover. Grabbing meals with friends can be an excellent way to de-stress — but while Foco is open seven days a week, and there are a handful of restaurants to choose from in Hanover, eating at the same spots year after year can get repetitive.
Graduate student Kexin Cai found dead
(05/21/24 5:23am)

Conaway: I Am Going on Strike — and You Should Too
(05/21/24 8:10am)
On May 1, the Graduate Organized Laborers of Dartmouth-United Electrical Workers — the College’s graduate student union — began its strike for a fair contract. Now, many of us graduate students are wondering why or how we should participate. I’m writing to say that I am striking, and my fellow graduate students should too. The cost of attending Dartmouth’s graduate programs has spiraled out of control. In the last five years, we have experienced an 83% increase in rent without a sufficient change in pay. Graduate workers currently have no paid medical or disability leave. International students face the extra burdens of immigration fees and precarity due to their visa status. Parents are especially financially burdened by insufficient childcare support. These barriers mean that higher education at Dartmouth is only truly accessible to the privileged few. These issues must be resolved for the sake of our workers and the future of our programs.
Cooch: How Beilock Can Respond to Faculty Censure and Student No Confidence Votes
(05/21/24 8:05am)
More than 30% of Dartmouth’s undergraduate students have voted “no confidence” in College President Sian Leah Beilock, and now Dartmouth faculty voted yesterday to formally censure her. These events reflect campus concerns about the administration’s biased and punitive response toward pro-Palestinian campus advocacy since October 2023. The students’ vote and faculty censure should serve as an urgent call for alumni engagement.

Q&A with Knight-Hennessy Scholarship recipient David Millman ’23

This month, former Student Body President David Millman ’23 received the Knight-Hennessy scholarship — which fully funds up to three years of attendance at any of Stanford University’s seven graduate schools, according to the College scholarship webpage. Millman, who is currently completing his Masters of Science in local economic development at the London School of Economics, will use the fellowship to study at Stanford Law School. The Dartmouth sat down with Millman to talk about his experiences at the College and his long-term career aspirations.

Q&A with ‘Sight’ actor Terry Chen and memoirist Ming Wang
(05/20/24 6:00am)
May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Last year, The Dartmouth published a list of Asian American television shows and movies to watch. This year, The Dartmouth had the opportunity to speak to two people who were involved in the production of an upcoming Asian American film, “Sight” — based on the memoir “From Darkness to Sight: A Journey from Hardship to Healing” by Chinese American doctor Ming Wang. Out on May 24, the movie follows the real story of Wang on his journey to becoming a renowned eye surgeon — a journey that took him from China during the Cultural Revolution to Tennessee, where he created the Wang Foundation for Sight Restoration. The Foundation helps provide patients with sight restoration surgeries free of charge.
