Different Strokes for Different Folks

|

After hours of in-depth research (the Wikipedia page on "Religion and sexuality" is really long), I have compiled a collection of many religions' stances on such topics as sex, pornography, birth control and masturbation.

Constant Care: Living with Chronic Illness at Dartmouth

|

For the typical Dartmouth student, health concerns likely do not extend far beyond avoiding swine flu and penciling in trips to the gym. For students with chronic medical conditions, however, things can be quite different. Between classes, clubs and downtime, these students' weekly schedules involve monitoring their physical state in order to stay healthy. Owen Jennings '11 was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder in his liver just three months before enrolling at the College.

Editors' Note

Deidra Willis and Yoon Ji Kim / The Dartmouth Well aware that The Mirror is the most well-read section of The Dartmouth, our motto is "anything you can do, we can do better." With the never-ending news section coverage of H1N1 prevalence on campus and other "cutting edge" health breakthroughs in the news section, we knew it was time for The Mirror to take a "stab" at the topic of health at Dartmouth.

Serving Students: Health care on campus

Imagine that you've just started dating the perfect guy. Now imagine that he has scabies according to Dick's House, that is (end scene honeymoon, eh?). You start taking scabies medication and advise your roommates to do the same.

The DM Manual of Style

|

Lauren Amery '10 has the unique ability of constructing seemingly expensive outfits at very low prices. Dressing in "hand-me-downs" of generations gone by, Amery grew up on a farm in Morristown, N.J., and did not have the opportunity to choose her own wardrobe until she was a high school student. Because both of her older siblings had moved on to pursue higher education, adolescent Amery was left in a position to explore her fashion sense. Still, Amery does not view her overall Dartmouth experience an extremely creative one, she said.

Ask Miss Muffin Top

Dear Miss Muffin Top, I am baffled by sleepover politics. When I go home with someone, what message am I sending when I stay the night?

Shining a Light on SAD

|

There are a handful of complaints that will crop up in any rant about Dartmouth: Collis is always overcrowded, we're in the middle of nowhere, we have too much work. But above all others, one gripe has stood the test of time: It's miserably cold in Hanover. The polar ice caps may be melting at record rates, and the rest of the world might be reaching new high temperatures every year, but Hanover remains immune from global warming.

Should I stay or should I go?

|

So now that our intrepid freshmen have officially cemented their place in history as the worst class ever (apparently it's possible to overlook a massive, belligerent mob screaming at you to "touch the fire already") I think it's time to take them to task for another serious fault: excessive friendliness.

Editors' Note

Catherine Treyz / The Dartmouth While it may be too early to start the countdown to graduation, we can't help but be reminded by our stressed-out peers in business suits, and the always popular "so what are you doing next year?" that, in a few months, we will have to say goodbye to the place we have called home for the past four years. Honestly, we aren't ready to leave.

'13 Girl : I just really want to hook up with a Yale boy because I wanted to go there. It will be like closure. '10 Sigma Delt: You know you have a problem when you find your thesis notebook in the basement.
