Hoffman announces resignation from Collis

By Sarah Rubenstin | July 2, 1999

Mark Hoffman will step down from his position as director of the Collis Student Center and Student Activities on August 20, leaving the College to move to Chicago. Hoffman, who has filled those posts since January, 1997, said he is moving with his partner, who is beginning an internship related to a doctoral program in psychology. "I've always wanted to live in Chicago, because of the diversity but it's definitely not because I'm dissatisfied with working with students or Dartmouth," Hoffman said. Dean of Student Life Holly Sateia said the College will most likely begin a search for Hoffman's replacement during the Fall term so that as many students as possible can have input on it.

Dorms may have cable by Fall term

By Sarah Rubenstin | January 26, 1998

Dean of the College Lee Pelton will decide by Spring term whether to implement recommendations from the College's Committee on Cable Television in order to provide cable service to all residence hall rooms beginning in the fall. In order to install it by fall 1998, Pelton and other senior officers will have to make the final decision by May 1. The committee's chair, Director of Instructional Services Michael Beahan, said within a few weeks, the committee will give Pelton a report on the cost and benefits of providing cable to dorm rooms. The committee, which has met 10 times since October, is most concerned with the technical aspect of providing cable to the rooms. Director of Residential Operations Woody Eckels, a committee member, said, "The worst thing we could do is go through all of the work we've done, and give [students] a picture in your room that's fuzzy." Campus TeleVideo, a consulting firm specializing in college cable television systems, came to the College and evaluated its existing cable system. The College presently connects cable to dorm lounges and classrooms.
