Hey prospies -- this one's for you! Before you start literally queuing up when a brother tells you your ninth in line tonight, let Grace Kang shed some insight on what it takes to get on a pong table in the first place.

Le Tour de Frats

By Joanna Patterson | April 18, 2008

Talk of pong inevitably leads to talk of basements and vice versa. So when it comes to pong-worthy basements, how do each of the houses stack -- and rack -- up? Beyond the ever-referenced frat and sorority stereotypes that dominate our perceptions of houses, the pure geography of basements plays a major role in dictating the number of tables, the rules of play and inevitably the quality of pong, regardless of ability. Starting out on Wheelock Street, the first things that come to mind about Alpha Delta's basement are the floor, smell and overall ambience.

Pongametrics

By Brian Lloyd | April 18, 2008

Shirley Hu / The Dartmouth Staff These days it seems like no matter what sport you choose to follow, you're going to be bombarded with a whole host of statistics. Two weeks ago, the entire country knew Memphis couldn't hit a free throw for its life or, as it turned out, for the national championship.

The DM Manual of Style

By Dylan Leavitt | April 11, 2008

A plastic bin overflows with my pink tights, ribbons and leotards. My history as a ballet dancer is laced up in each pointe shoe and stitched into the leg warmers, but I haven't danced for three years.

Point: Gym Facetime?

By Jean Luo | April 11, 2008

It's time we accept that the Alumni Gym serves as yet another forum for our school's burgeoning obsession with facetime.

Counterpoint: Gym Facetime?

By Katherine Gorman | April 11, 2008

We must all avoid using the gym as a place to get facetime. Yes, even you, girl that blowdries her long locks before languidly running on the treadmill at Alumni Gym during the "Busy Time." Don't get me wrong, I totally understand that the desire to be seen in the right place at the right time with the right people wearing the right outfit is one of the most important motivating forces for many a Dartmouth student.

Booze and The Body: High and Dry

By Jennifer Garfinkel | April 11, 2008

For many Dartmouth students, hangovers are no big deal. Your body reels, you curse yourself for drinking too much, but you grab a Billy Bob from the Hop and wait it out. But for other students at Dartmouth, even a minor hangover can be detrimental. For this reason, some Dartmouth athletes find heavy drinking and late-night partying taking a back seat to certain commitments: to their bodies, their performance and their teammates. The men's varsity heavyweight crew team has one of the more drastic alcohol policies on campus, which this year requires team members to forgo alcohol from the end of Winter Carnival until June.
