By Heather Szilagyi | February 6, 2014

New Hampshire is second only to Vermont as the least religious state in the country, according to an annual Gallup poll released Monday. Yet students who participate in campus religious organizations said that while they believe there is a stigma attached to being religious at Dartmouth, most students are accepting.

Posters through the ages

By Aimee Sung | February 6, 2014

From this year’s theme to “A Very Grimm Winter Carnival” to the many ski-themed posters of Carnival’s early days, every year, a unique Winter Carnival fills campus with a buzz of excitement and produces a poster made in the artistic styles of the time.

Last-minute snowstorm arrives just in time for Carnival

By Zac Hardwick | February 6, 2014

Postgrad Puck

By Sasha Nanji | February 6, 2014

My team, the Toronto Furies, was gearing up for its first road trip of the season, a two-game slate against the Montreal Stars. Still battling to fit in as a rookie, I never know whether I’m going to dress. The coaches wait until after Wednesday night practices to send out the lineup for the upcoming weekend. Fortunately for me, I was told I would suit up, and boy was I excited to play, especially against my former teammate Camille Dumais ’13. Of course, I would need to adjust my game a bit, since I was accustomed to setting her up for goals. This time around, I would have to look for her in order to incapacitate her abilities to pull a fast one on me or my teammates. I was determined be the one with bragging rights.

Whether the snow sculpture is a massive throne, an intricate pirate ship, a muddy cupcake or just two blocks of ice in the middle of the Green, we can always count on some dedicated students to build the Winter Carnival icon, an unavoidable thread that goes back many dozens of years through Dartmouth’s history. In 1994, one student jumped into a freezing pond and became a part of that story.

Carnival's Traditions, Changing With Time

By Chris Leech | February 6, 2014

The College has no shortage of traditions, from laps around the Homecoming bonfire to the semi-legal late-night swim that is the Ledyard Challenge. During past Winter Carnivals, however, some combination of cabin fever and a College-sanctioned holiday have driven students to come up with some downright ridiculous traditions.
