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.

Fifty-eight years ago, the Vermont state government razed Lewiston, Vt. to the ground — burning nine buildings and destroying more than 200 years of history in just 15 minutes. The former village, located across the Connecticut River from the College, was once a transportation and commerce hub in the Upper Valley.

Having chosen to attend college in a place that’s home to just over 12,000 people, one might hold a natural appreciation for small towns like Hanover. But even those allured by the quaintness of New England may yearn for some more excitement now and then — and a weekend in Montréal, Québec just might do the trick.

As an international student from India, I’ve found that I am just as much Delhi’s as I am Dartmouth’s. While I am often not fully present in either place, I am never truly absent either. Whenever I return to Delhi, I hyper-fixate on everything that is different — how my city has changed, how I have. For me, it’s usually only small details — my childhood park getting renovated, the family jokes I need to be looped into, having to look up the route to my best friend’s house — yet it still feels all-consuming.

On Feb. 13, College President Sian Leah Beilock announced the appointment of Joseph Catrino as the inaugural executive director of the newly established Dartmouth Center for Career Design — a successor to the current Center for Professional Development. In his role, Catrino is set to expand the Center for Professional Development into a “best-of-its-kind resource” for students to plan their career paths, according to Dartmouth News. A career administrator and educator, Catrino served as the founding executive director of career and life design at Trinity College from 2021 to 2025, where he used a “unified framework” to strengthen “career development, student success and retention services.” The Dartmouth sat down with Catrino to discuss his background in education and his plans for the Center for Career Design.

Led by student body president Chukwuka Odigbo ’25, the Senate discussed alumnus Steve Upton’s ’77 proposal for the new undergraduate school of Arts and Sciences to be named “Dartmouth College.” The Senate was joined by Upton and outgoing Provost David Kotz ’86, who co-led the project that originally proposed a school of Arts and Sciences.

The Big Green has risen from the ashes. After a miserable 2023-24 season — in which the team finished 6-21 and last in the Ivy League, with a 2-12 conference record — Dartmouth has taken a dramatic step up in its play this season. The Big Green is 13-11 and, sitting at second place in the Ivy League at 7-4, has a chance to earn its first winning season since 1999. With an opportunity to play spoiler in Ivy Madness next month, The Dartmouth has found itself asking: Why is Dartmouth men’s basketball suddenly an Ivy League contender? Could this be the season to end the 66-year NCAA tournament drought for the Big Green?

One month ago, Dartmouth had the lead against Princeton University, but a Xaivian Lee dagger three with six seconds left snatched away the win. This time, Dartmouth grabbed the lead early and never let go.

As spring nears, Dartmouth Athletics is beginning a new season of competition. With a mix of new and returning players, many of the College’s spring sports teams are reconfigured — last year’s captains have graduated, and first-years are set to begin collegiate play. Every roster is seeking glory. While there are more Big Green teams competing this spring than the ones listed below, these spotlighted few have their only season — or, in the case of tennis, primary season — in the spring.

In the spirit of the saying “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” the “White Lotus” season premiere — “Same Spirits, New Forms” — delivers exactly what its title promises. For those unfamiliar, the “spirit” of the White Lotus television series centers around a luxury resort enterprise functioning as a cultural refuge for the hyper-rich. Far from broke, the Emmy award-winning first and second seasons of “White Lotus” cemented themselves in the zeitgeist as a satirical exploration of America’s ever-expanding wealth gap. Each season thus far has transformed the serene utopia of a Four Seasons property into a crime scene where everything that can go wrong, does, and where somebody innocent is sure to end up dead.

On Feb. 10, the FUERZA Farmworkers’ Fund, a mutual aid fund that supports farmworkers in rural Vermont and New Hampshire, and La Casa co-hosted a panel featuring Mexican women’s rights activist Olimpia Coral Melo. In 2021, Melo spearheaded advocacy for Mexico’s first law outlawing digital violence — also known as “revenge porn,” according to Melo — against women.

In recent years, our campus has been infected by what I have dubbed the “Wall Street Plague.” Each year, it seems like more and more students fall to the prospect of a career in finance — putting aside dreams of saving the world for the promise of late-night spreadsheets and lucrative pay days. This shift is backed up by the data: According to a 2006 survey of graduating seniors, 26% of Dartmouth’s graduating class was planning to pursue a career in the financial services sector. Nearly two decades later, in 2023, the percentage of graduating students working in finance during their first fall after graduation had risen to 33%, according to the Center for Professional Development.

Last quarter, a stump on the corner of the Green at the intersection of Main Street and West Wheelock Street became a bit of a campus sensation after a student fixed a Lorax plushie to it. Above the stuffed toy, a sign read the iconic words: “I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees.” The stunt was a fun example of our student body’s humor, but it may also have been trying to tell us something more. If the Lorax could speak for the Dartmouth trees, what would he say? His message might be pretty concerning.

When I think about my past nights out on campus, my cherished memories are accompanied by a musical soundtrack. There’s a reason why I had LF System’s “Afraid to Feel” stuck in my head all last winter, and why this year I can’t stop singing the main chorus from the NOTION remix of Chrystal’s “The Days.” These rhythms served as the backdrop to nights spent in a sweaty fraternity, packed into a room dancing with friends or a now-gone situationship. Whether bringing on a wave of nostalgia, releasing negative emotions, building shared bonds among friends or becoming incessant earworms, the sounds of Dartmouth — particularly those playing in fraternity basements — never seem to quiet themselves.
