Lest the old traditions fail
By Matt Lifson | May 26, 2011At any time between the hours of 11 a.m. and 1 a.m. (except from 3-5 p.m.), I can walk into the Class of 1953 Commons and get a delicious sandwich featuring fresh mozzarella cheese.

When we applied to Dartmouth, did we agree to become the type of people who automatically places others in neatly-labeled-boxes?
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.
How often do you "go out" at Dartmouth? Don't actually answer, or the person sitting next to you might mistake you for one of those schizophrenics that pretends to be having a Bluetooth conversation while walking their dog but is in fact actually talking to their dog.
If I hear one more person complain about something at Dartmouth, I'm going to lose it. I'm in the 1902 Room right now, so if it happens as I write this I swear to God I'm going to flip a table in here, flip it back over, stand on it, go on a long-winded and obnoxiously loud tirade about the tyranny of complainers and then sit back down and not do anything about it. Where do I even begin when it comes to complainers?
Let's say you have the aspirations of a double major but the laziness of the average, single-majoring college student.
Do Dartmouth students suffer from Dartmouth withdrawal when they leave campus? No, I'm not talking about alcohol withdrawal.
I just want to be able to order a meatless egg-white wrap on whole wheat from the Hop without my masculinity being questioned. I mean, let's face it: we attend a school that has gender on the mind, as is incredibly apparent in this issue of The Mirror.
First of all, let's get one thing straight: eating healthy does not mean that you are healthy. You go to Dartmouth, therefore you are not healthy.
I can think of no other issue plaguing Dartmouth that so urgently begs forum discussion and student action than the egregious misallocation of iMacs on first floor Berry. As Dartmouth students, I think most of us are very cognizant of the fact that we represent a great amount of diversity (be it economic, racial, geographic or in the case of certain mythological-mobile-theatre-players psychological diversity). So of course, this diversity implies that there is a broad range of personal resources to which different students have access and it is imperative that students with greater resources begin to understand that they must take advantage of their means and leave Dartmouth's resources to the less privileged and more deserving. What does this have to do with frst floor Berry iMacs?
