College social scene keeps chugging along

By Rebecca Siegel | July 26, 1995

Many people think Dartmouth's remote location precludes any sort of active social life, yet a wide range of social options are thriving in this sleepy New England town. With 16 fraternities and six sororities, including two historically black sororities and two historically black fraternities, much of campus social life revolves around Greek parties. In addition to single-sex organizations, Dartmouth has three coeducational Greek Houses and two undergraduate societies, which include men and women in their membership. Much to the chagrin of the administration, many of these shin-digs do have the tendency to resemble "Animal House" -- a 1960s movie based on Dartmouth's Alpha Delta fraternity.

New Hampshire gets money to beat heat

By Rebecca Siegel | July 25, 1995

On Friday, President Clinton allocated $100 million for emergency home energy assistance to the 19 states that recently experienced extremely hot weather, according to a White House press release. New Hampshire received $313, 587, while the more hard-hit states such as Illinois and New York received $15,724,820 and $11,543,960 respectively. The Department of Health and Human Services distributed the money, which is authorized by the Low Income Home Energy Assistant Program. "This heat wave is an emergency that demands a response from the Federal Government to help ordinary Americans get through the summer," Clinton said, in the press release. "I am glad to be able to tell you that the Federal Government can help," Clinton continued. Clinton said federal law gives him the authority to provide more energy assistance to elderly and other low-income Americans in the even of a natural disaster. The money is used to pay cooling bills and to buy fans and air conditioners. The amount of money distributed to each state is based on the number of households in the State with income under 125 percent of the poverty level, the release said.
