What's up with DDS?

|

There has been plenty of controversy and confusion surrounding the remodeling of the Class of 1953 Commons, and although the news section has comprehensively covered these changes, here at The Mirror we thought it was necessary to do some behind-the-scenes investigation into the changes that will be made to the Dartmouth dining experience this term.

What's up with Jewel of India?

As much as people complain about living in the Dartmouth bubble, everyone has to admit that the local food is pretty decent, given that it comes from the middle of the wilderness.

I wrote this at 3 a.m.

Our campus has been downright oversaturated with talk of sexual assault. The words lose their meaning, the statistics become white noise and in the end we're left with the people who care the most yelling over each other, while those who most need to appreciate the gravity of the situation slip out the back door. Allow me to yell next, but don't worry I'm not going to rehash that old "one in four women will be sexually assaulted in her lifetime" stat (an aside: it's statistically true, and when I look at my friends, I find it's real-life true). Instead, I want to discuss how we think about ourselves, our bodies and sex, and how our thinking contributes to why so many people at Dartmouth shrug off all this talk about sexual assault. I'm throwing out the term "sexual assault" not because it isn't accurate, but because all the nerve endings it used to hit are dead at this point.

I spent one morning my freshman Spring crying into my Belgian waffle at Home Plate brunch as my friend and I engaged in an intense dialogue about the hook-up culture at Dartmouth.

Why does Baker-Berry lend itself to so many awkward interactions amongst students? Every time I set foot in the library I feel like I'm drowning in the unforgivably bad habits of every other library-goer, and I want to know why.

Real Talk: Life Without Labels

|

At a school where Overheards are frequently identified by Greek affiliation, where a frat and sorority hierarchy is unfortunate but very real and where nearly every campus-wide controversy is related to the Greek system, the experience of being unaffiliated is hard to imagine for most.
