Homecoming weekend is upon us, and it is the second year in which Dartmouth freshmen are walking around the bonfire instead of running.

Holzer: Rush and Rosh Hashanah

The cold morning of Sept. 30 saw a trickle of people headed towards Rollins Chapel: elderly folks from cars, tallis and yarmulke in tow; professors corralling tykes in itchy clothes; some students in slacks and sport coats and some in khakis and sweaters; security guards in dark uniforms, hired to keep the peace.

Rush is coming to a close and for yet another year, glaring issues with women’s rush remain. 

Opinion Asks: Alumni Relations

Campus was abuzz the last week of September with reunions for the Classes of 1944, 1949 and 1954. Dartmouth’s Homecoming is on Oct. 11, a part of the 250th anniversary celebrations.

Zaman and Ryu: All-American Education

Earlier this September, the Department of Education ordered sweeping changes to a Middle Eastern studies program run jointly by Duke University and the University of North Carolina.

Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau is the latest public figure to fall from grace.

Robert Hunter, one of the psychedelic era’s foremost songwriters, died last Monday, finishing what was certainly a long, strange trip around and around the sun.
