NBA commissioner David Stern announced the cancellation of the first two weeks of the NBA 2011-2012 season on Monday. This confirmed all fears that there might not be any professional basketball for a long period of time.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Going a year without pro basketball is one of my worst nightmares. I would rather self-impose a three-cup handicap on all of my pong games than suffer through a year without the high-flying acrobatics of Dwight Howard, LeBron James and Chris Paul. Unfortunately, the labor talks between the NBA players&rsquo; union and the NBA owners are unproductive because neither side refuses to seek a compromise. After four months of heated negotiations, no progress has been made.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Contrary to popular belief, owning a professional basketball team is not necessarily a lucrative business. The owners claim that the NBA&rsquo;s 30 teams lose a combined $300 million every season. Although many players&rsquo; union representatives dispute the exact magnitude of this loss, the financial instability of the NBA is a known fact.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;In 2011, Forbes reported that my hometown team, the Orlando Magic, had an operational income of -$23.1 million. The Magic is the only major professional sports team in central Florida, the owner of a brand new state-of-the-art arena and the employer of Dwight Howard, the most dominant center in the league. Despite all of these positives (and a Forbes 11th-ranked net worth of $385 million), the team still cannot turn a profit. This fundamentally flawed system needs to be entirely revamped in order to guarantee the sustainability of the NBA.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Currently, NBA players receive 57 percent of all basketball-related income, or BRI. Keep in mind, this number includes every transaction that relates to basketball &mdash; not just ticket sales. If you add in the money generated from TV contracts and merchandise, basketball teams generate a lot of cash.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;One percent of BRI is estimated to equal around $40 million, although major-market teams such as the New York Knicks generate considerably more money than smaller-market teams. If you do the math, the players must give up at least eight percentage points in order for the league to break even. The owners are asking for the players to concede seven BRI points and change the revenue sharing to an equal 50-50, but the players will not accept a deal that lowers their share below 53 percent.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although I&rsquo;m a sports journalist and not a businessman, I find it hard to support the players&rsquo; union during this lockout. Although both sides want multiple changes in the NBA business structure, the BRI ratio is by far the most important topic in the debate. Earning a profit is the primary objective for any business owner, and I can&rsquo;t imagine any right-minded individual agreeing to a deal that does not improve the chance of making a profit.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I know that there is a lot of money riding on the end result of these negotiations, but logic must trump personal motivation and greed. Let&rsquo;s be honest: Professional basketball players will always make significantly more money than the Average Joe. Although a 7 percent recution in LeBron James&rsquo; contract would cause him to lose about $6 million over five years, his adjusted earnings of $102 million over six years is still considerably more than any amount of money I will ever see during my lifetime.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The players must give something up so the fans can enjoy a season of basketball. The maximum contract length needs to be shortened, the salary cap must be firm and the players must take a smaller share of the total income. NBA owners and general managers are notorious for paying bad players too much money (hello, Elton Brand) and one bad move can sink an entire franchise for years. With these suggested changes, management would be protected from itself and the chance of one bad move crippling a successful team would be minimized. Successful teams are generally profitable teams, and progressive labor negotiations will create a more stable and competitive NBA.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:33+02:00', '', 'sports hollistos world \n it finally happened nba commissioner david stern announced cancellation weeks nba 2011 2012 season monday confirmed fears professional basketball long period time\n\ngoing year basketball worst nightmares i self impose cup handicap pong games suffer year high flying acrobatics dwight howard lebron james chris paul unfortunately labor talks nba players’ union nba owners unproductive refuses seek compromise months heated negotiations progress popular belief owning professional basketball team necessarily lucrative business owners claim nba’s 30 teams lose combined $300 million season players’ union representatives dispute exact magnitude loss financial instability nba known fact\n\nin 2011 forbes reported hometown team orlando magic operational income $231 million magic major professional sports team central florida owner brand new state art arena employer dwight howard dominant center league despite positives forbes 11th ranked net worth $385 million team turn profit fundamentally flawed needs entirely revamped order guarantee sustainability nba players receive 57 percent basketball related income bri mind number includes transaction relates basketball — just ticket sales add money generated tv contracts merchandise basketball teams generate lot cash\n\none percent bri estimated equal $40 million major market teams new york knicks generate considerably money smaller market teams math players percentage points order league break owners asking players concede seven bri points change revenue sharing equal 50 50 players accept deal lowers share 53 i’m sports journalist businessman i hard support players’ union lockout sides want multiple changes nba business structure bri ratio far topic debate earning profit primary objective business owner i can’t imagine right minded individual agreeing deal does improve chance making profit\n\ni know lot money riding end result negotiations logic trump personal motivation greed let’s honest professional basketball players make significantly money average joe 7 percent recution lebron james’ contract cause lose $6 million years adjusted earnings $102 million years considerably money i players fans enjoy season basketball maximum contract length needs shortened salary cap firm players smaller share income nba owners general managers notorious paying bad players money hello elton brand bad sink entire franchise years suggested changes management protected chance bad crippling successful team minimized successful teams generally profitable teams progressive labor negotiations create stable competitive nba\n\n');

Dan Rooney &rsquo;12 will make his first career start as the Big Green looks to kick its losing streak in its final non-conference game of the season.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although Rooney has attempted just seven passes in his Dartmouth career, Teevens said he needed to provide a spark to a passing offense that ranks 114th out of 120 Football Championship Subdivision teams. Dartmouth&rsquo;s offensive line currently averages just 117 pass yards per game.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;We&rsquo;re trying to get more consistency at the quarterback spot,&rdquo; Teevens said. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re primarily a running football team, but a productive pass offense balances things up. We haven&rsquo;t found that yet, so we decided to shake things up.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Rooney said he was excited when Teevans told him he would start, but knows that he must perform at a high level if he wants to continue playing with the first team.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;The running game&rsquo;s been there for us all season, so if we can get a few guys off [Nick Schwieger &rsquo;12] and Dominick [Pierre &rsquo;14], we can get the offense moving in the right direction,&rdquo; Rooney said. &ldquo;Coach is just looking for a guy that&rsquo;s going to perform to the level we&rsquo;re looking for and put some points on the board.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Andy Gay &rsquo;14 started for Dartmouth at Yale University last week in place of Conner Kempe &rsquo;12, who had started the Big Green&rsquo;s previous 13 games dating back to last season. Gay was pulled at halftime of the 30-0 loss, however, after completing just three out of 11 passes for 14 yards. He was also sacked twice.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The presumptive starter at the beginning of the season, Kempe has been unable to improve his completion percentage from last season, when it stood at 54.2 percent. While the defense deserves some blame for the Dartmouth&rsquo;s 1-3 start, Kempe&rsquo;s numbers are telling. The senior has completed just 48.4 percent of his passes for 444 yards in four games. He has thrown just three touchdowns and given up two interceptions.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dartmouth now turns to Rooney in hopes of squeezing some success from the remainder of the season.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;He&rsquo;s been productive in the past, but hasn&rsquo;t played a lot for us at the varsity level,&rdquo; Teevens said. &ldquo;He&rsquo;s been steady in practice, and the big thing is to have some consistency in the pass game. My expectation is that he&rsquo;ll perform well.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Rooney will be missing a few key targets on Saturday, as co-captain Tim McManus &rsquo;11 and his younger brother, Ryan McManus &rsquo;15, will both miss the game with injuries. Tim has been sidelined since he took a hard hit to the head during the second quarter of Dartmouth&rsquo;s game against the University of Pennsylvania two weeks ago. Ryan sustained a similar injury after catching four passes in last week&rsquo;s loss to Yale.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Teevens said Tim McManus has taken longer than expected to return, but that the Big Green will not take any risks due to the nature of his head injury.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The team&rsquo;s primary bright spot this season has come from its special teams play. While opponents have wised up to All-America return man and co-captain Shawn Abuhoff &rsquo;12, kicking away from him as much as possible, he has still managed to return one punt for a touchdown. The Big Green has also blocked six kicks, which is tied for the most in the FCS.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Coaches Chris Wilkerson and Sam McCorkle have done a great job with that,&rdquo; Teevens said. &ldquo;We spend a lot of time with that and we put our best guys on that unit.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dartmouth blocked an extra point in last year&rsquo;s 27-19 victory over Holy Cross (2-3, 1-0 Patriot) in Hanover. The Big Green forced six turnovers that day and ran to victory behind 169 rushing yards from Schwieger.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The Crusaders will be a tough opponent for the Big Green to beat. All three of the Crusaders&rsquo; losses have been by eight points or less, and they have faced two Ivy League opponents so far, beating Harvard University before losing to Brown University last week. Their most impressive performance likely came in a 39-32 loss on the road at the University of New Hampshire, which is currently the sixth-ranked team in the country.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dartmouth plays Holy Cross at 1 p.m. on Saturday.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:34+02:00', '', 'sports rooney 12 start big green \n after losing consecutive games despite strong season opening victory colgate university dartmouth football head coach buddy teevens turn quarterback games saturday big green 1 3 0 2 ivy plays college holy cross worcester mass dan rooney ’12 make career start big green looks kick losing streak final conference game rooney attempted just seven passes dartmouth career teevens said needed provide spark passing offense ranks 114th 120 football championship subdivision teams dartmouth’s offensive line currently averages just 117 pass yards trying consistency quarterback spotâ€ teevens said “we’re primarily running football team productive pass offense balances things haven’t decided shake things said excited teevans told start knows perform high level wants continue playing team\n\n“the running game’s season guys nick schwieger ’12 dominick pierre ’14 offense moving right directionâ€ rooney said “coach just looking guy that’s going perform level we’re looking points gay ’14 started dartmouth yale university week place conner kempe ’12 started big green’s previous 13 games dating season gay pulled halftime 30 0 loss completing just 11 passes 14 yards sacked twice\n\nthe presumptive starter beginning season kempe unable improve completion percentage season stood 542 percent defense deserves blame dartmouth’s 1 3 start kempe’s numbers telling senior completed just 484 percent passes 444 yards games thrown just touchdowns given turns rooney hopes squeezing success remainder productive past hasn’t played lot varsity levelâ€ teevens said “he’s steady practice big thing consistency pass game expectation he’ll perform missing key targets saturday captain tim mcmanus ’11 younger brother ryan mcmanus ’15 miss game injuries tim sidelined took hard hit head second quarter dartmouth’s game university pennsylvania weeks ago ryan sustained similar injury catching passes week’s loss said tim mcmanus taken longer expected return big green risks nature head injury\n\nthe team’s primary bright spot season come special teams play opponents wised america return captain shawn abuhoff ’12 kicking away possible managed return punt touchdown big green blocked kicks tied chris wilkerson sam mccorkle great job thatâ€ teevens said “we spend lot time best guys blocked extra point year’s 27 19 victory holy cross 2 3 1 0 patriot hanover big green forced turnovers day ran victory 169 rushing yards crusaders tough opponent big green beat crusaders’ losses points faced ivy league opponents far beating harvard university losing brown university week impressive performance likely came 39 32 loss road university new hampshire currently sixth ranked team plays holy cross 1 pm saturday\n\n');

After leading the University of Connecticut to an Intercollegiate National Title in 1961, Dimancescu transferred to Dartmouth the next year and brought his passion for competitive cycling with him. While the Dartmouth team failed to take off over the next few years, it resurfaced in the late 1970s by winning five straight Ivy League titles from 1977 to 1981.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The sport has changed signficantly since the 1970s, but the team&rsquo;s passion for competitive cycling is still just as strong.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dartmouth&rsquo;s cycling team won four consecutive League championships from 2002-2005.

The team&rsquo;s biggest races are the Eastern Conference Championships and the USA Cycling Collegiate National Championships, which are both highly competitive events.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although cycling does not have a strong contigent in sporting circles &mdash; those who watch are usually cyclists themselves or those fair-weathered fans who only tune in for the Tour de France &mdash; collegiate cycling has gained more attention in recent years.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I think it&rsquo;s an extremely exciting time for the team because throughout the [Eastern Collegiate Cycling Conference], people and riders treat this as a varsity sport,&rdquo; team social chair Joshua Hall &rsquo;14 said. &ldquo;And I believe we may soon be in a transition phase where the cycling team may become a varsity sport.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Team members come from a diverse range of cycling backgrounds. While riders like Max Jentzsch &rsquo;15 &mdash; who rode professionally in Germany before matriculating at Dartmouth this fall &mdash; bring a wealth of experience to the Big Green, other students join the team as recreational riders. The team encourages riders of all skill levels to join, according to its website.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Many team members start with little or no prior experience,&rdquo; Dartmouth cycling president Matt Nichols &rsquo;13 said. &ldquo;Mentoring new riders is part of the team&rsquo;s mission.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Like many Dartmouth club teams, the cycling team sometimes struggles with attempting to compete at a high level and spread awareness about its sport.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Balancing athletics with academics is a challenge that we all embrace,&rdquo; Nichols said. &ldquo;As an entirely student-run team, our team leaders also have sizable responsibilities beyond just riding their bikes.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;As a club team, the cyclists do not have a coach, and instead must organize their own racing schedule. Trying to get bids into competitive races and dealing with the entire team&rsquo;s financials can be a daunting task.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Last year we limited the Dartmouth race to an individual time trail and the frat row criterion because these are cheaper and easier to organize,&rdquo; Dan Holmdahl &rsquo;14, the team&rsquo;s vice president, said in an email to The Dartmouth.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Nichols added that cycling&rsquo;s busy race schedule can pose further difficulties.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Performing 25-plus races in a season is a major challenge, especially with the cold and wet weather we face,&rdquo; he said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;While maintaining active membership on the cycling team is not an easy undertaking, Nichols said the Big Green is enthusiastic about cycling.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Personally, this team has been my passion for the past two years, and I thank my predecessors, Isaiah Berg [&rsquo;11] and Michael Rea [DMS &rsquo;08], for their lessons in leadership,&rdquo; Nichols said. &ldquo;From the joy of qualifying for Nationals as a freshman to the frustration of breaking my collarbone as a sophomore, I feel I&rsquo;ve paid my dues and I&rsquo;m ready to be a major player in the conference this year.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:35+02:00', '', 'sports cycling deep roots college \n the dartmouth cycling team does enjoy following college sanctioned division i sports men women clad tight green racing suits regularly seen pedaling way hanover’s surrounding hills cycling team rarely public eye despite sport’s long history dartmouth bicycle club founded early 1960s dan dimancescu ’64 leading university connecticut intercollegiate national title 1961 dimancescu transferred dartmouth year brought passion competitive cycling dartmouth team failed years resurfaced late 1970s winning straight ivy league titles 1977 1981\n\nthe sport changed signficantly 1970s team’s passion competitive cycling just cycling team won consecutive league championships 2002 2005 currently 25 undergraduate graduate students team numbers fairly consistent year year team fair share talented riders including professional cyclists eric schildge ’10 toby marzot ’09\n\nwhile big green’s primary focus spring road racing season march bikers compete publicized events nick wimer ’12 ellen anderson adv’16 won races season team’s biggest races eastern conference championships cycling collegiate national championships highly competitive cycling does strong contigent sporting circles — watch usually cyclists fair weathered fans tune tour france — collegiate cycling gained attention recent years\n\n“i think it’s extremely exciting time team eastern collegiate cycling conference people riders treat varsity sportâ€ team social chair joshua hall ’14 said “and i believe soon transition phase cycling team varsity members come diverse range cycling backgrounds riders like max jentzsch ’15 — rode professionally germany matriculating dartmouth — bring wealth experience big green students join team recreational riders team encourages riders skill levels join according team members start little prior experienceâ€ dartmouth cycling president matt nichols ’13 said “mentoring new riders team’s dartmouth club teams cycling team struggles attempting compete high level spread awareness athletics academics challenge embraceâ€ nichols said “as entirely student run team team leaders sizable responsibilities just riding bikesâ€\n\nas club team cyclists coach instead organize racing schedule trying bids competitive races dealing entire team’s financials daunting year limited dartmouth race individual time trail frat row criterion cheaper easier organizeâ€ dan holmdahl ’14 team’s vice president said email added cycling’s busy race schedule pose 25 races season major challenge especially cold wet weather faceâ€ said\n\nwhile maintaining active membership cycling team easy undertaking nichols said big green enthusiastic team passion past years i thank predecessors isaiah berg ’11 michael rea dms ’08 lessons leadershipâ€ nichols said “from joy qualifying nationals freshman frustration breaking collarbone sophomore i feel i’ve paid dues i’m ready major player conference yearâ€\n\n');

High salaries for graduating students, a strong alumni network, and &ldquo;overall educational experience&rdquo; led to Tuck&rsquo;s rise from number two in 2010 to the top spot in 2011, according to the website. The University of Chicago&rsquo;s Booth School of Business and the International Institute for Management Development placed second and third on the list, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Tuck graduates can expect an average annual salary of approximately $107,000 &mdash; a 65 percent increase from last year&rsquo;s average pre-MBA earnings &mdash; and 97 percent of students are employed within three months of graduation, according to a study conducted by The Economist.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Unlike most business school rankings, The Economist&rsquo;s annual report uses both objective and subjective metrics, according to the study. In addition to surveying students from each institution, the Economist weighs four over-arching categories &mdash; new career opportunities, the potential to network, personal development and educational experience, and increasing salary from before matriculation to after graduation &mdash; in order to determine its final list. Tuck placed eighth in the 2011 U.S. News and World Report&rsquo;s Best Business School rankings.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Out of the 17 sets of criteria used to compile the rankings, Tuck made it in the top 10 for eight of the areas, ranked first for alumni effectiveness and educational experience, and ranked second for new career opportunities.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Tuck&rsquo;s emphasis on students, dedicated alumni and cutting edge research contributied to its number one ranking, Tuck Dean Paul Danos said in an interview with The Dartmouth.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;When you talk to people who know Tuck &shy;&mdash; not those who know it solely because of name recognition, but alumni and people who hire Tuck graduates &mdash; the learning experience we offer consistently scores very high,&rdquo; Danos said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Danos said that although American business schools are consistently disadvantaged in international rankings because graduates&rsquo; published salaries do not include bonuses, Tuck was still ranked number one because of its excellence other areas.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;A particular strength that contributed to Tuck&rsquo;s high ranking was the high level of dedication exhibited by Tuck alumni, Danos said. Tuck scored well in the segment of rankings regarding the quality of alumni, with Tuck students who participated in The Economist&rsquo;s survey grading the quality of alumni as &ldquo;the best in the world,&rdquo; according to The Economist&rsquo;s website.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Tuck&rsquo;s annual giving rate is the highest in the country, with approximately 70 percent of alumni giving in 2011, Danos said. Tuck&rsquo;s alumni giving rate was ranked number one by CNN Money in May.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a phenomenon that isn&rsquo;t repeated at any school that I know of,&rdquo; Danos said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Danos, who spoke at a Thursday night celebration of the ranking attended by Tuck students and faculty members, proudly attributed Tuck&rsquo;s success to the school&rsquo;s focus on students.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Tuck has a philosophy of sincerely caring about our students,&rdquo; Danos said. &ldquo;The quality of the learning experience is our first priority, not just research.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Sally Jaeger, assistant dean and director of the MBA program at Tuck, emphasized students&rsquo; constantly evolving mindsets and the strong cultural diversity at Tuck that lead it to be recognized as a world-class business school. With 33 percent of the student body hailing from other countries, Tuck as a whole &ldquo;better reflects the world.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although Tuck is ranked number one in The Economist, Danos said that administrators and professors are far from &ldquo;complacent&rdquo; when seeking to improve the already-existing programs.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;There are a lot of challenges, especially globalization and new technology,&rdquo; Danos said. &ldquo;This is a constantly changing world, and our faculty is always experimenting and staying current with new research.

Members of the Class of 2011 had an average starting salary of $71,908, which is $10,000 higher than the $61,142 starting salary of students with their Bachelors in Engineering degrees, according St. Laurence. Thayer Career Services offers help to all MEM candidates, in areas such as crafting cover letters and resumes.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although the employment rates of graduate students sharply dropped during the recession, the rates of MEM student employment remained constant, according to Graves.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;During the economic downturn over the past four or five years, we&rsquo;ve had better job placements than even our counterpart at Tuck,&rdquo; MEM Associate Director Ross Gortner said. &ldquo;The key to this was that the major loss in jobs for MBAs was with the finance and consulting jobs. When those positions disappeared, our MEM students were still able to sit here and say, &lsquo;I&rsquo;m an engineer and there are many companies that will want to hire me.&rsquo;&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;At the recession&rsquo;s outset, there was a noticeable shift in the type of companies in which graduates found employment, according to Gortner.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;They were going back to their traditional engineering roots and working for the [General Electrics] or the IBMs and those kind of companies that had high value for the kind of engineering talent that was coming out of this program,&rdquo; Gortner said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;With extra years of experience and wider skill sets, MEM graduates are more likely to be employed than other graduate students, according to Gortner.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;If you finish with your BE degree and you go to the career fair here at Dartmouth, even if you&rsquo;re an outstanding student, you&rsquo;re only one of 800 students that are graduating and are looking for similar kinds of jobs,&rdquo; Gortner said. &ldquo;Our MEM students can go to the same career fair a year later and can say, &lsquo;Not only was I a stellar undergrad student, but look at all the other skills that I&rsquo;ve obtained over the last year that my counterparts don&rsquo;t have.&rsquo;&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The reported success of the program may explain the recent spike in program applicants, Gortner said. Each class is capped at 50 students, but the applicant pool has been consistently growing by 20 percent over the past five years, according to Gortner.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;We admit students that are undergraduate engineers who are looking to add value to their possible career options and opportunities by increasing their knowledge about management topics,&rdquo; Graves said. &ldquo;The MEM program here has a core that is advanced engineering and a core that is management in its topical content.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;One of the program&rsquo;s major assets is an 18-person advising group called the Corporate Collaboration Council, which is composed of individuals ranging from managers to chief executives of their respective businesses, according to Gortner.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Some of the [members of the council] are MEM alums, some are Dartmouth alums, some have no affiliation,&rdquo; Gortner said. &ldquo;Each student is matched with a mentor to help find an internship and then potentially to find full-time jobs.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The assistance that the council provides also makes the MEM program attractive to applicants, according to current MEM student Allison McKendry who will graduate this winter.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;It&rsquo;s such an incredible resource to have, to have someone that is so successful that is willing to take an interest in your career and help you get where you&rsquo;re going,&rdquo; McKendry said. &ldquo;They do a great job of teaching students how to go out and market yourself correctly, how to find the jobs that you&rsquo;re suited for, and how to network correctly.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;MEM students take a variety of courses, including a professional development workshop course that focuses on business and engineering ethics as well as other relevant skills, according to Gortner.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;We hired a staff member that is actually an improv actor to teach how to think on your feet,&rdquo; Gortner said. &ldquo;Many engineers tend to be more on the introverted side, so when they get out into the business world, we&rsquo;re trying to help them to be able to communicate.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Program participants must also complete a culminating experience project, which is usually completed as a summer internship, Gortner said. At the conclusion of the internship, students must prepare a final report and presentation on their experience for a review board of business professionals and Thayer and Tuck faculty, according to Gortner.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;The students have to leave campus and go and work for a company in the form of an internship,&rdquo; Gortner said. &ldquo;They can&rsquo;t just go to a company and make copies and serve coffee &shy;&shy;&mdash; it has to be an actual academic experience. When they present, whereas a Masters of Science student would have four professors on their review board, I get relevant people from the industry to sit and serve on those review boards.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The MEM degree also indicates a dual interest in technical and financial work to prospective employers, according to current MEM student Derrick Kuan.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;It&rsquo;s hard to get into business and show interest in it if you&rsquo;re in engineering, so the program really helps people to show interest in that kind of field,&rdquo; Kuan said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;By combining elements of the technological and economic realms of knowledge, the MEM program equips its students with skill sets that can be applied to a vast number of employment opportunities, Graves said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;There&rsquo;s evidence that shows that MEM students are more likely to advance faster in their organizations,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;You have not only the technical knowledge, but also the management knowledge.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although MEM students have access to more resources and contacts for networking, the MEM program emphasizes the acquisition of knowledge above all else.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Between Thayer&rsquo;s own Career Services office and the Corporate Collaboration Council, MEMs have a lot of resources available to them, but at the end of the day, it&rsquo;s going to be their skills that gets them the jobs,&rdquo; Gortner said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s not just about being able to crunch the numbers like a good engineer can, because it&rsquo;s also about the softer things, being able to give a good presentation, being able to write a proper report for your boss &mdash;

Tucked away on South Main Street, The Wine Crate will offer customers bi-weekly wine tastings, free beginner wine classes and a relaxing in-store experience aimed at making the selection of a wine bottle enjoyable, easy and informative, according to owner Matt Pomerville.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The concept of the store originated after visits to various wine stores around New England, where Pomerville felt that &ldquo;about half the people who buy wine are apprehensive,&rdquo; he said. In opening The Wine Crate, Pomerville said he hopes his store can be a place &ldquo;where people feel comfortable&rdquo; asking questions when selecting the right bottle of wine.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Originally set to open earlier this fall, the sudden failure of the store&rsquo;s heating and cooling units forced Pomerville to put all wine orders on hold until the right ventilation parts arrived this week, he said. Out of all the things to go wrong, malfunctioning air conditioning units were &ldquo;just something that we didn&rsquo;t expect,&rdquo; Pomerville said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;When The Wine Crate does open, however, Pomerville hopes to attract customers of varying expertise, including undergraduate and graduate students over the age of 21, he said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;On a campus where the most of the population is underage, many students interviewed by The Dartmouth said they believe the majority of The Wine Crate&rsquo;s customers will be permanent residents of the Upper Valley, not students.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kenny Baclawski &rsquo;12 said he will probably not frequent The Wine Crate often, but that the store will likely attract students who &ldquo;do enjoy wine on campus.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;When deciding on the store&rsquo;s selection of wines, Pomerville said he &ldquo;concentrated not so much on regions but a wider range of varietal categories.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The prices of bottles will start at around $12 and work their way up to higher-end specialties. Pomerville said he hopes that frequent wine tastings at the store will encourage customers to try something to which they normally would not be exposed.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Each wine tasting will be slightly different, with wine representatives, distributors and themed and holiday tastings all adding to the variety of options offered.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;We really want to make it a place for people who like wine from all different walks of life and experiences to feel comfortable coming in and interacting,&rdquo; Pomerville said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Pomerville said The Wine Crate will also offer beginner wine tasting classes to give participants an introduction to different types of wine and a chance to experience wine tasting in a comfortable setting.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Shaun Mehtani Tu&rsquo;11, former co-chair of the Tuck Wine Society, said The Wine Crate will attract students interested in learning more about the intricacies of wine.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;People like something different,&rdquo; Metani said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s also within walking distance. As a former Tuck student, I see no reason why I would not try it.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;For Pomerville, The Wine Crate&rsquo;s convenient location was a major factor in opening his business.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;If this space hadn&rsquo;t been available, I might not have opened up a shop in Hanover,&rdquo; he explained. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s extremely important that we&rsquo;re right in the center of the shopping district.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Pomerville also noted that the store&rsquo;s location in a cellar space below Mai Thai restaurant &ldquo;helps with the atmosphere.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;After solidifying the location, Pomerville began the process of obtaining a liquor license, which typically takes six to eight weeks. In the state of New Hampshire, a liquor license application also requires an on-site inspection prior to approval.

Speaking to an audience of approximately 30 people that mostly included medical students and professors, Kleinman argued that while cynicism has become a natural reflex for people, studying the humanities can help brighten a person&rsquo;s outlook.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;The humanities and the interpreted social sciences and the arts should be nurturing lives that resist and transcend cynicism,&rdquo; Kleinman said. &ldquo;The university is unique among institutions in its potential to foster, in a concerted way, orientations to living that overcome cynicism.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;We are surrounded by cynicism, Kleinman said, as evidenced by our acceptance of the steroid culture in professional sports and our acquiescence with the way sexuality is used in advertising.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Through studying the humanities, individuals can cultivate idealism and develop a critical lens to overcome negativity and improve the world, according to Kleinman.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Most of us are not going to change the world, and yet there are things that we can do that are still important,&rdquo; he said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Such &ldquo;anti-heroic actions&rdquo; demonstrate the need for change and show new, legitimate ways of living, Kleinman said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kleinman described College President Jim Yong Kim as an &ldquo;anti-hero.&rdquo; Kim&rsquo;s strides to improve third-world countries through disease prevention and treatment represented a departure from the World Health Organization&rsquo;s usual way of tackling health problems, but left a positive impact, according to Kleinman.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;They have undertaken great actions that have changed the world,&rdquo; Kleinman said of Kim and his Partners in Health co-founder, Paul Farmer.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kim was originally slated to introduce Kleinman, a personal acquaintance, but was called away to an event in Washington, D.C., at the last minute, according to the stand-in moderator of the event.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Other &ldquo;anti-heroes&rdquo; Kleinman cited included Mohandas Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr. and James Grant, former executive director of UNICEF.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kleinman also discussed the importance of caregiving as opposed to emotionally-lacking medical treatment.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;When individuals participate in caregiving, there is a possibility of increasing our presence as an emotional, moral and aesthetic way of being in the world,&rdquo; Kleinman said. &ldquo;We come forward morally.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kleinman questioned what will happen to American education if more schools transition to what he called the &ldquo;[Massachusetts Institute of Technology] model,&rdquo; in which the majority of focus is placed on applied science, and any focus on other fields is relatively modest.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;What is the future of humanities and social sciences if we end up with most of our universities being MITs?&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;MIT is a great university, but it&rsquo;s a certain kind of university that [Dartmouth is] not and [Harvard is] not.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kleinman said the prevalence of technology raises a multitude of ethical questions that must be answered through a humanity-focused lens.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Sukie Punjasthitkul, who attended the lecture to research for his job at the game design center known as Tiltfactor Laboratory, said he agred with Kleinman&rsquo;s thesis that the humanities and arts needs more funding.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I think [the lecture was] very pertinent considering everything&rsquo;s so focused on economics right now,&rdquo; Punjasthitkul said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Matt Sattler &rsquo;14 said he attended the lecture on the recommendation of his anthropology professor.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;As college students, we&rsquo;re constantly dealing with these questions of how do we better ourselves in society, and we do see this cynicism present on campus,&rdquo; Sattler said. &ldquo;We go to classes during the day, then we go to frats, and we see all these things that we wish we could change but don&rsquo;t know how.

Florida moved its 2012 primary to Jan. 31, prompting South Carolina and Nevada to push up their election dates, Politico reported. These states&rsquo; actions led Gardner, the sole controller of the date for New Hampshire&rsquo;s primary, to schedule the New Hampshire primary earlier than the Iowa caucus.

The test, which is one of several ways in which the federal government measures the financial strength of a college and its subsequent ability to partake in federal student aid programs, calculates three ratios from the audited financial statements of an institution &mdash; a net income ratio, an equity ratio and a primary reserve ratio. Due to complaints that the test doesn&rsquo;t accurately portray an institution&rsquo;s financial health, a review panel created by the National Association of College and University Business Officers, the Council of Independent Colleges and the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities will submit recommendations for the test&rsquo;s revision to the federal government, according to Inside Higher Ed.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Amid increasing student preference for paper diplomas, the University of Notre Dame will stop offering diplomas printed on animal skin, The Chronicle of Higher Education reported.

I didn&rsquo;t teach English in a foreign country. I didn&rsquo;t work in finance. I didn&rsquo;t even have an unpaid internship designed to somehow further my career goals. Instead, I went home, worked in a cafe, played jazz in a lounge with my dad and relaxed.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Fail? While I needed a break and would definitely call my term a success, the reactions of my peers to my less-than-ambitious decision varied. Some were supportive and interested, but others just looked confused, asking me why I didn&rsquo;t go abroad or try to land a prestigious internship. These reactions made me question my choice to go home, and reminded me that Dartmouth&rsquo;s fast-paced atmosphere can be intimidating at times.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Students interviewed by The Mirror agreed that the pressure to be successful at Dartmouth can be quite overwhelming &mdash; and certainly isn&rsquo;t limited to on-campus activities. The choices we make for our off terms are a reflection of our motivation and drive, and it often seems that doing something &ldquo;ordinary&rdquo; is considered a failure.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Isabel Murray &rsquo;12, who spent an off-term working on organic farms in Malibu, Calif., was less than praised for her off-campus pursuits.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I got the sense that people thought I was slacking off,&rdquo; Murray said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;She said students found her descriptions &ldquo;really weird,&rdquo; asking about her parents&rsquo; opinions of her term and how it would further her future career goals.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Although Murray has no desire to pursue farming as a post-Dartmouth career, she still valued her term.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;It was very personally fulfilling,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;I needed to relax, and that&rsquo;s something that&rsquo;s undervalued [at Dartmouth] and in American society in general.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Murray, perhaps influenced by her peers&rsquo; less than exuberant feedback, expressed doubts about her term &mdash; questioning whether she was &ldquo;just lazy.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Adelaide Giornelli &rsquo;12 felt similarly about her winter term in New Zealand.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;The classes were super easy and only lasted six weeks,&rdquo; she explained.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;She spent her remaining four weeks exploring the country. Her term was adventurous and personally enjoyable, but she occasionally rethinks her choice.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;There are people that have job offers because they did internships that Winter, and I [think], &lsquo;What am I doing with my life?&rsquo;&rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Atypical off-terms dedicated solely to &ldquo;personal fulfillment&rdquo; aren&rsquo;t for everyone. Seemingly more typical is the internship or volunteering route, designed to help students gain experience for defining their potential career paths. While some enjoy these terms and even come out of them with a job offer, others found that their negative experiences were not worth the resulting resume-boost.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;A &rsquo;12 female described her internship at Davis Polk and Wardwell &mdash; a New York City law firm that formally recruits interns and full-time employees at Dartmouth &mdash; as &ldquo;soul-sucking.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;She wished to remain anonymous due to the sensitive nature of the subject.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;We made binders. We photocopied. We hole-punched things. One day, we learned how to shake a pile of papers so all the hole-punched holes lined up,&rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dressing in business formal attire to do menial work was not what she expected from a position with such a competitive selection process on campus and prestigious real-world label, she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The student felt misled and disappointed when the potentially exciting internship turned out to have &ldquo;absolutely no relationship to practicing law,&rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dartmouth students are used to being productive and challenged, she said, and the internship&rsquo;s &ldquo;lack of a bigger picture&rdquo; made her term unsuccessful. The belief in the necessity of resume-boosting experiences in an &ldquo;unfortunate reality,&rdquo; she explained &mdash; a reality she wishes wasn&rsquo;t so prevalent at Dartmouth.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;That said, other students believed that dislike of an internship is not necessarily a failure. Caitlin Ardrey &rsquo;13 worked in the finance office for the senatorial campaign of Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., in 2009 and found that while she was interested in politics, raising money and organizing events for the campaign were not as fulfilling as she imagined.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;At least I realized I never want to do that again,&rdquo; Ardrey said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Ardrey said that the harder choice was not what to do during an off term but what to do with a job offer &mdash; for example, potentially turning down a high-paying job from an unenjoyable internship.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Ali Oberg &rsquo;13 agreed, saying that not everyone has the choice to turn down a job simply because he or she wouldn&rsquo;t enjoy it. Taking an off-term internship that you don&rsquo;t enjoy to pay for college or to save for another experience is not &ldquo;failing,&rdquo; but rather being &ldquo;reasonable and responsible,&rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Clearly, deeming an off-term a success or failure depends on countless personal measures. Some students may need time away from Dartmouth to self-reflect. Others may find exploring internships, both good and bad, to be the best option. Either way, pressure to be successful can get in the way of personal preference, especially when dealing with our peers&rsquo; reactions.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I think it&rsquo;s troublesome &mdash; the idea that we must constantly be striving, working and succeeding, but [also] having the best time ever,&rdquo; Murray said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s an ideal that&rsquo;s very hard to live up to.&rdquo;\nOn a resume, my Spring spent at home probably won&rsquo;t help me get a job. However, the term away from campus has made me much more productive and content here at Dartmouth, and was &mdash; if only to me &mdash; a huge success.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I&rsquo;m in the midst of planning another off-term this Winter. Maybe I&rsquo;ll take the potentially soul-sucking internship route this time, or choose the cliche volunteer experience. Or I could just go home and hang out with my parents again &mdash; an option which, to my still homesick self, is very, very tempting, regardless of whether it might be perceived as a failure.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:40+02:00', '', 'mirror gotta away \n i took term spring awesome i didn’t teach english foreign country i didn’t work finance i didn’t unpaid internship designed career goals instead i went home worked cafe played jazz lounge dad i needed break definitely term success reactions peers ambitious decision varied supportive interested just looked confused asking i didn’t abroad try land prestigious internship reactions question choice home reminded dartmouth’s paced atmosphere intimidating interviewed mirror agreed pressure successful dartmouth quite overwhelming — certainly isn’t limited campus activities choices make terms reflection motivation drive doing “ordinaryâ€ considered murray ’12 spent term working organic farms malibu calif praised campus got sense people thought i slacking offâ€ murray said\n\nshe said students descriptions “really weirdâ€ asking parents’ opinions term future career murray desire pursue farming post dartmouth career valued term\n\n“it personally fulfillingâ€ said “i needed relax that’s that’s undervalued dartmouth american society influenced peers’ exuberant feedback expressed doubts term — questioning “just giornelli ’12 felt similarly winter term new classes super easy lasted weeksâ€ spent remaining weeks exploring country term adventurous personally enjoyable occasionally rethinks people job offers did internships winter i think ‘what i doing life’â€ terms dedicated solely “personal fulfillmentâ€ aren’t seemingly typical internship volunteering route designed help students gain experience defining potential career paths enjoy terms come job offer negative experiences worth resulting resume boost\n\na ’12 female described internship davis polk wardwell — new york city law firm formally recruits interns time employees dartmouth — “soul wished remain anonymous sensitive nature binders photocopied hole punched things day learned shake pile papers hole punched holes lined upâ€ business formal attire menial work expected position competitive selection process campus prestigious real world label said\n\nthe student felt misled disappointed potentially exciting internship turned “absolutely relationship practicing lawâ€ students used productive challenged said internship’s “lack bigger pictureâ€ term unsuccessful belief necessity resume boosting experiences “unfortunate realityâ€ explained — reality wishes wasn’t prevalent said students believed dislike internship necessarily failure caitlin ardrey ’13 worked finance office senatorial campaign richard blumenthal conn 2009 interested politics raising money organizing events campaign fulfilling i realized i want againâ€ ardrey said\n\nardrey said harder choice term job offer — example potentially turning high paying job unenjoyable oberg ’13 agreed saying choice turn job simply wouldn’t enjoy taking term internship don’t enjoy pay college save experience “failingâ€ “reasonable responsibleâ€ deeming term success failure depends countless personal measures students need time away dartmouth self reflect exploring internships good bad best option way pressure successful way personal preference especially dealing peers’ think it’s troublesome — idea constantly striving working succeeding having best time everâ€ murray said “it’s ideal that’s hard live toâ€\non resume spring spent home probably won’t help job term away campus productive content dartmouth — — huge midst planning term winter maybe i’ll potentially soul sucking internship route time choose cliche volunteer experience i just home hang parents — option homesick self tempting regardless perceived failure\n\n');

This is the story of recruiting.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I think that I am going to rush Google. I met some of the guys from Google last week, and they seem really down to earth and laid back. It&rsquo;s hard to get a bid, but if I hang out enough, kiss enough ass and send enough blitzes, I think I have a shot.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;They&rsquo;re pretty A-side too. Kinda like Goldman Sachs, but a little more alt. It&rsquo;s a really big firm. I probably won&rsquo;t get close to all the employees, but as long as I make a few good friends, I think it&rsquo;d be worth it.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I hate recruiting. Everyone is so fake. When I went to the career fair, I followed a couple of friends around. They are trying to go into i-banking or consulting. Of course. Following them around was kinda like watching the spin cycle on &ldquo;heavy duty.&rdquo; It&rsquo;s OK for a minute or two, while it&rsquo;s still novel. But it gets boring pretty quick. Walk up to a stand. Shake hands. Network. Make a dumb joke. Fake interest. Repeat. I don&rsquo;t understand why the recruiters buy it. We just say what we think they want to hear. I wish I could just walk up to their stands and ask them what the starting salary is. And how many times they have tails with Kappa. It&rsquo;d be more honest.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The recruiters are kinda fake too. One girl walked up to a stand that my friend was running. My friend is a recruiter. She told this girl all about how great her firm was and how much fun the people in the office were and that this girl should really apply.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The girl was beaming by the end. She asked my friend if she had a shot. Response: Definitely. The girl walked away. I asked my friend if the girl had a shot. She said no. She said she hated recruiting and that she hated her job.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Friends told me that the point of the career fair is to make enough connections to convince a recruiter to visit your Greek house the night after. I think the logic goes something like this: If a recruiter visits my house, and I am sweet and always smooth, then I will get the job. That is probably true.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;We had a few recruiters come over to my house. One of the female recruiters asked me if the football or hockey houses were open. They weren&rsquo;t. Conditioning. I told her that the swimmer house was open. She liked that. I took her over. I was pretty sure it&rsquo;d end poorly. It did.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The interview is the scariest part of recruiting, I think. It&rsquo;s two hours, and it&rsquo;s the only thing that matters. The interviewers already know everything that you did in the past year. How many leadership roles you had. Your GPA. How often you had a job. How many times you hung out. How many brothers you know. But, if you made it to the interview, none of that really matters anymore. It&rsquo;s just you, the room, 60 brothers and 80 sisters. Tense. Does it look bad if you go to the bathroom right in the middle?&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;One of my friends got dinged because he buttoned the bottom button on his blazer. I think I&rsquo;d probably ding someone because of that. It&rsquo;s kinda lousy. I have dinged someone because of that, actually.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;If I got a bid at Google, my life would be great. Everyone would love me. You don&rsquo;t even need to be smart after that. Or talented. Or sweet. You have the name behind you. You can go anywhere. Do anything. People bend over backwards to talk to you. They suck up to you. My friend told me that girls love it too.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I hung out with an AD once. He didn&rsquo;t really get the hype. He said that the guys are chill. They have tails with Kappa a lot. But they study a lot and work hard too. And they&rsquo;re just normal guys.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;That is probably just BS though. I&rsquo;m sure it&rsquo;s amazing.

Try as they might to sweep the dirt under the rug, the higher-ups can&rsquo;t hide some of Dartmouth&rsquo;s most egregious oversights, missteps and embarrassments. Let&rsquo;s take a walk through the shadier side of Dartmouth&rsquo;s history.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;December 1892 &mdash; Robert Frost drops out of Dartmouth&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Of our many illustrious alumni, the one we cling to is poet Robert Frost. What we often forget, however, is that the man who penned &ldquo;The Road Not Taken&rdquo; actually left the College after one semester. In fact, his most meaningful contribution to campus culture was pledging Theta Delta Chi fraternity. He might be one of the first Dartmouth alums who comes to mind, but apparently the hill winds weren&rsquo;t enough to keep him around.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Feb. 18, 1904 &mdash; Dartmouth Hall catches on fire&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;While many students were attending chapel, a fire broke out in the original Dartmouth Hall, which had been completed in 1791. The 113-year-old building apparently couldn&rsquo;t withstand an electrical malfunction, whose fault I can only assume was the organization that preceded Facilities, Operations and Management. The Hanover Fire Department couldn&rsquo;t stop the fire, and the building burned to the ground in less than two hours. At least alumni rebuilt it relatively quickly &mdash; the second Dartmouth Hall was dedicated on Feb. 17, 1906.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;June 16, 1920 &mdash; &ldquo;The Boom Boom Lodge&rdquo;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;During the Prohibition era, Dartmouth students had some difficulty gettin&rsquo; their drink on. With no Keystone in sight, Robert Meads &rsquo;19 decided to run a one-man bootlegging operation. Henry Maroney &rsquo;20, a member of Theta Delta Chi fraternity, tried to steal a bottle of whiskey from Meads. Crafty! But stupid &mdash; Meads responded by murdering the thirsty bro in cold blood in his own fraternity. Let&rsquo;s all drink to aggressively overreacting!&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;March 5, 1934 &mdash; Carbon monoxide deaths&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;During a blizzard in 1934, nine brothers of Theta Chi fraternity, which is now the Tabard co-ed fraternity, died in their sleep from carbon monoxide poisoning, caused by a broken pipe in the fraternity house&rsquo;s furnace. The house&rsquo;s janitor had recommended the furnace be replaced for years, but nothing had been done to fix the issue. Unfortunately, this operational oversight led to one of the biggest tragedies in Dartmouth history.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1939 &mdash; The Hovey murals&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Many students may not know that Dartmouth is actually home to more than one set of famous murals. Besides Jose Clemente Orozco&rsquo;s &ldquo;The Epic of American Civilization,&rdquo; we also house the Hovey murals, painted by illustrator Walter Beach Humphrey, Class of 1914. The murals are located in the basement of what is now the Class of 1953 Commons, and they are just plain offensive. The painting depicts Dartmouth&rsquo;s founder Eleazar Wheelock feeding rum to some naked Native Americans in the woods. It also features many naked women. Humphrey apparently loved naked people. The murals have sparked a great deal of controversy over the years, and they represent another incident of Dartmouth&rsquo;s lengthy history of intolerance.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aug. 31, 1945 &mdash; Jewish and Catholic admissions quotas&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;In another uplifting chapter of Dartmouth&rsquo;s history, the College once instituted caps on the number of Jewish and Catholic students that could be admitted to each class. Qualified Jewish high school students began applying to Dartmouth in record numbers, which, according to then-College President Earnest Martin Hopkins, was an issue that could only be solved with a cap. Indeed, Hopkins claimed that German Nazism was a direct response to a large number of Jewish professors in Germany. His successor, John Sloan Dickey, eliminated the caps shortly after World War II, and religion has since ceased to be a criterion in the admissions process.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;September 1972 &mdash; Dartmouth is the last Ivy to admit women&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Better late than never? Few people today would argue that co-education is a vice. Back in the day, however, we were a little late to the starting line: The first &ldquo;fully&rdquo; co-ed class was as recent as the Class of 1976 &mdash; and the male-to-female ratio was 8 to 1. I&rsquo;m glad to have some chromosomal diversity on campus, but maybe this should have been a move for the early years of the 20th century, as it was for many other American universities. Just saying.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Until 1974 &mdash; The Indian mascot&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Beginning in the 1920s, a group of sweet, tolerant sportswriters and cartoonists in Boston decided that Dartmouth needed a mascot and began referring to the College&rsquo;s teams as the Indians, according to Dartmouth&rsquo;s website. &ldquo;How could this possibly end horribly?!&rdquo; they must have asked themselves. After almost 60 years, the Board of Trustees finally decided that the image was super offensive and probably not the best homage to the College&rsquo;s history. Thus, the Indian was officially retired. This hasn&rsquo;t stopped some conservative groups on campus from using it, however, so shame on you guys. Now we&rsquo;re left with a moose, a keg and a color as our choices for mascot &mdash; that&rsquo;s just embarrassing.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1999 &mdash; The Student Life Initiative&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;What was the Student Life Initiative, you ask? (Should&rsquo;ve read The Mirror two weeks ago, fool!) The end-all solution to the Greek system and Dartmouth&rsquo;s social scene, of course! Except it clearly didn&rsquo;t work. In 1999, then-College President James Wright announced a new policy that would &ldquo;enhance the out-of-classroom experience at the College,&rdquo; according to the SLI&rsquo;s website. The SLI called for more co-educational housing, decentralized dining and extensive changes to the Greek system. Nice try, Parkhurst, but we all know Dartmouth students do not respond well to change.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2000 &mdash; Gay bashing&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Racism, sexism, religious exclusion &mdash; all we need is homophobia in Dartmouth&rsquo;s history to complete the quartet! Unfortunately, the College&rsquo;s history is rife with anti-gay sentiment. Perhaps the most infamous incident occurred in 2000 when a member of Alpha Delta fraternity yelled &ldquo;faggot&rdquo; at a gay student walking by the house. While this unfortunate event triggered campus-wide discussions about homophobia at Dartmouth &mdash; a sentiment that seems to have somewhat dissolved over the past decade &mdash; it represents yet another episode in Dartmouth&rsquo;s ongoing saga of failing to be fully tolerant.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jan. 10, 2010 &mdash; Fire at Phi Delt&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Early Sunday morning at the outset of 10W, Phi Delta Alpha fraternity caught fire, and the house incurred tremendous property and infrastructural damage. Only a select few students know exactly what happened to Phi Delt the night of the fire (apparently a rat&rsquo;s nest is to blame), but one thing is for certain: Some Dartmouth students clearly didn&rsquo;t catch the &ldquo;leave no trace&rdquo; speech on Trips &mdash; pyrofail.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fall Term 2011 &mdash; New FoCo, new Blitz, new GreenPrint, new Hinman boxes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dear old Dartmouth: please stop.

On one hand, the recommendations are sensible, long overdue updates to the College&rsquo;s policies and practices regarding sexual assault. On the other hand, the recommendations shed little light on the standard of evidence used for sexual assault reviews, keeping the process muddled and prolonging the widespread perception that the system is inconsistent and unreliable.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The most praiseworthy recommendations are numbers six and nine, which would, respectively, require students with relevant information to testify at COS hearings on sexual assault and create an educational, remedial program for students who have been suspended or placed on probation due to sexual misconduct.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;In the past, COS review committees have rejected the notion that student witnesses should be required to testify in COS hearings. One such committee from 2008 stated, &ldquo;We do not believe that compulsory participation in the information gathering or disciplinary hearing process is consistent with values the community places on individual choice.&rdquo; The current committee has rightly recognized that coming forward with information about serious misconduct is an &ldquo;expectation of citizenship.&rdquo; Belonging to the Dartmouth community is a privilege that should necessarily entail certain obligations and responsibilities, one of which is holding other community members accountable for deplorable behavior. We cannot accept a campus culture of apathy towards an issue as important as sexual assault, and enacting this Honor Code-like change in sexual assault hearing procedure could help foster a stronger culture of collective responsibility.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The recommendation for a remedial education program is also long overdue. It is incomprehensible that we have such programs for students who have been disciplined for underage drinking, but not for students who have been found guilty of a far more serious and disturbing crime.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;While the proposals are laudable, it is disappointing that the committee did not take the opportunity to clarify the COS standard of evidence used in sexual assault reviews. Fair or not, there is a widely held perception among many students that the sexual assault review process is subjective and arbitrary &mdash; a feeling that stems from the lack of a clearly-defined standard of evidence to adjudicate these claims. The fact that this perception exists, regardless of whether it is true, is itself a problem, but the opportunity to resolve it has now been passed by.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Sexual assault cases are among some of the most difficult to adjudicate, largely due to grey areas concerning consent and a lack of witnesses. Although the review committee&rsquo;s 12 recommendations address major gaps in Dartmouth&rsquo;s current procedures for handling cases of sexual assault, they fail to address the largest issue that looms over these COS proceedings. Until the College clarifies its sexual assault evidence standards, the progress made with these recommendations will be muted, and the review system will continue to be viewed with mistrust.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Today is the deadline for submitting feedback on the recommendations to Dean of the College Charlotte Johnson. The feedback box and report are available on the Dean of the College website. In light of the potential for change that these recommendations offer, we encourage you to read the report and voice your opinions.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:42+02:00', '', 'opinion verbum ultimum evaluating standards \n reading 12 recommendations recently forth committee standards sexual assault review committee clear praise criticism order hand recommendations sensible long overdue updates college’s policies practices regarding sexual assault hand recommendations shed little light standard evidence used sexual assault reviews keeping process muddled prolonging widespread perception inconsistent praiseworthy recommendations numbers respectively require students relevant information testify cos hearings sexual assault create educational remedial program students suspended placed probation sexual past cos review committees rejected notion student witnesses required testify cos hearings committee 2008 stated “we believe compulsory participation information gathering disciplinary hearing process consistent values community places individual choiceâ€ current committee rightly recognized coming forward information misconduct “expectation citizenshipâ€ belonging dartmouth community privilege necessarily entail certain obligations responsibilities holding community members accountable deplorable behavior accept campus culture apathy issue sexual assault enacting honor code like change sexual assault hearing procedure help foster stronger culture collective recommendation remedial education program long overdue incomprehensible programs students disciplined underage drinking students guilty far disturbing crime\n\nwhile proposals laudable disappointing committee did opportunity clarify cos standard evidence used sexual assault reviews fair widely held perception students sexual assault review process subjective arbitrary — feeling stems lack clearly defined standard evidence adjudicate claims fact perception exists regardless true problem opportunity resolve passed by\n\nsexual assault cases difficult adjudicate largely grey areas concerning consent lack witnesses review committee’s 12 recommendations address major gaps dartmouth’s current procedures handling cases sexual assault fail address largest issue looms cos proceedings college clarifies sexual assault evidence standards progress recommendations muted review continue viewed deadline submitting feedback recommendations dean college charlotte johnson feedback box report available dean college website light potential change recommendations offer encourage read report voice opinions\n\n');

Dartmouth, it seemed, only won.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;But little by little, it began to dawn on me that maybe winning wasn&rsquo;t quite what was going on here. Things I had previously known to be irredeemable were designated winning, too. Drinking &rsquo;til you booted (or, worse, until you had to go to Dick&rsquo;s House) was glorified, violence went unchecked and &ldquo;brothers&rdquo; prided themselves on doing things so horrible to each other they couldn&rsquo;t talk about them. It became clear that Dartmouth was not quite as radiantly happy as I had originally assumed.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;But why cover it up? Why pretend it&rsquo;s all okay? Certainly it&rsquo;s not because it&rsquo;s inhuman to be upset, even over the smallest of things. And it&rsquo;s not because someone&rsquo;s telling us to be happy &mdash; there&rsquo;s nobody standing over our shoulders yelling at us to cheer up, or else.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;It&rsquo;s something much simpler. Being unhappy is, by basic definition, a failure to be happy, and we&rsquo;re not the kids who fail. We are the golden children, the chosen ones, and admitting that something&rsquo;s wrong is admitting that something&rsquo;s wrong with you. We&rsquo;re not used to encountering failure, and less used to gracefully dealing with it. After Lord knows how long we&rsquo;ve spent inflating these expectations for ourselves, we find it easier to adjust and attempt to control unhappy situations than to simply admit our unhappiness.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;In the end, we all end up paying for it. We don&rsquo;t progress; we never really change. Because change requires a collective, vocal dissatisfaction &mdash; an expressed unhappiness of sorts &mdash; and if we&rsquo;re constantly elated about everything, then nothing merits the effort or attention that change demands.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;When we fail to admit something&rsquo;s wrong, we lose the chance to make it better. And in the end, that&rsquo;s a greater loss than unhappiness.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:43+02:00', '', 'mirror you’re unhappy know \n i’d known overwhelmingly happy group people dimensions i met h croo — group enthused temporary occupation took change hair color reflect undying excitement meet i auditioned cappella — introduced stunningly exuberant array young adults\n\nupon failing join cheerful ranks i joined smilingly sarcastic group writers mirror staff sharp commentary status quo means reflected sunny snarky arriving dartmouth i taken aback sheer level happiness campus everybody sung pong’s praises greater happiness biting slice ebas buffalo chicken pizza finally arrived 310 fantastic professors left students walking cloud playing dream kids lose weight look younger association rumors night’s tails left basement reeking introduction boarding school i saw signs homesickness i walked freshman hall i couldn’t discern feeble heartbreaking whimpered calls mom dad characterized nights high school everybody adjusted — doing laundry decorating dorms like palaces avoiding dramatic roommate problems i’d previously encountered acing huge anonymous intro courses suffocatingly small successfully ran businesses created charities won awards pursued dressed crazy colored clothes studied hard partied harder funny smart creative — way better looking collegeprowlercom forewarned dartmouth won\n\nbut little little began dawn maybe winning wasn’t quite going things i previously known irredeemable designated winning drinking ’til booted worse dick’s house glorified violence went unchecked “brothersâ€ prided doing things horrible couldn’t talk clear dartmouth quite radiantly happy i originally assumed\n\nbut cover pretend it’s okay certainly it’s it’s inhuman upset smallest things it’s someone’s telling happy — there’s standing shoulders yelling cheer else\n\nit’s simpler unhappy basic definition failure happy we’re kids fail golden children chosen ones admitting something’s wrong admitting something’s wrong we’re used encountering failure used gracefully dealing lord knows long we’ve spent inflating expectations easier adjust attempt control unhappy situations simply admit end end paying don’t progress really change change requires collective vocal dissatisfaction — expressed unhappiness sorts — we’re constantly elated merits effort attention change fail admit something’s wrong lose chance make better end that’s greater loss unhappiness\n\n');
INSERT INTO `items1` VALUES (1285, 'OPINION: Batchelor: Hugs Not Drug(test)s', 'http://thedartmouth.com/2011/10/14/opinion/batchelor/', '\n        &lt;p&gt;The New York Times reported on Monday that at least three dozen state legislatures &mdash; the majority of which are Republican-controlled &mdash; have put forth initiatives to make drug testing  a prerequisite for all manner of public assistance: welfare, unemployment and food stamps, to name a few. While at first glance this onslaught of new proposals seems sensible (why should taxpayers support drug habits of the poor?), a closer examination reveals that this flawed logic is based on pre-existing class and racial stereotypes and does nothing to solve any of the pressing issues this country faces.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The arguments for these new policies come at a time of staggering unemployment in the United States &mdash; currently 9.1 percent, down from its peak of 10.1 percent in 2009 but more than twice as high as rates only four years ago. In the largely Republican-controlled state houses, these proposals have been supported by rhetoric about the misuse of public funds, excessive government spending and the increasing prevalence of drug testing in the work place. While these arguments align quite nicely with proclaimed right-wing preference for cutting welfare programs and government spending, a look into past and present initiatives reveals that the stated goals of these policies do not match reality.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The economic effect of making drug tests an eligibility requirement for public assistance appears marginal at best and negative at worst.  The ACLU, for example, put out a report in the weeks following Florida&rsquo;s July adoption of a drug-testing policy that demonstrated the state was actually losing money from the initiative. The high cost of drug-testing kits outweighed the money not being paid to those who had tested positive. In the months since, the data remain open to interpretation and are being used by each side for their respective agendas, as the Times article noted. What remains most important to me, however, is that while a small percent of the monthly benefits for those who tested positive may have indeed gone to purchasing drugs, people applying to welfare still need to eat, still need a place to sleep and still need to provide basic care for their families. By rendering them ineligible for welfare, their chances of breaking the cycle of their poverty and drug use are drastically reduced &mdash; a reality that can only be a further economic burden on already struggling states.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Secondly, initiatives requiring drug testing for benefits have been ruled unconstitutional in the past. A similar program was struck down in Michigan a decade ago, with the judge arguing that mandatory drug testing was a violation of a citizen&rsquo;s constitutionally guaranteed protection from unreasonable search and seizure. This logic is not difficult to follow. Unless we assume that being jobless is probable cause for drug use &mdash; a gross instance of discrimination based on race and class &mdash; we cannot reasonably require across-the-board testing.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Last, but perhaps most importantly, these proposed and enacted laws draw their strength from and reinforce incredibly negative and damaging stereotypes of the unemployed.  Particularly given the near doubling of the joblessness rate in recent years, standard portrayals of benefits recipients as&ldquo;welfare queens&rdquo; and lazy, incompetent drug addicts do not match reality. Many unemployed Americans are simply victims of the recession struggling to weather out these bad economic times, and as the Times article discussed, many unemployed people are so busy trying to make ends meet that the idea of using or affording drugs seems ridiculous.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I do agree it is a tragedy to waste taxpayer&rsquo;s dollars on drug use. But the greater tragedy lies in the drug addiction itself. Barring those who do suffer from addiction from the help that may get them back on their feet will only further exacerbate our problems, solidify class divides and increase negative stereotyping.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;To me, this issue reflects a growing and concerning trend in today&rsquo;s politics &mdash; policies that are designed to appeal to a party base while not actually accomplishing their stated goals. While Democrat and Republican lawmakers at the state and national level grandstand over party ideologies to win re-election, real people with real problems are suffering in the streets. If we continue to allow these kinds of policies &mdash; those supported by ideology and not fact &mdash; we will all suffer the consequences and live in a worse world as a result.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:43+02:00', '', 'opinion batchelor hugs drugtests \n the new york times reported monday dozen state legislatures — majority republican controlled — forth initiatives make drug testing prerequisite manner public assistance welfare unemployment food stamps glance onslaught new proposals sensible taxpayers support drug habits poor closer examination reveals flawed logic based pre existing class racial stereotypes does solve pressing issues country faces\n\nthe arguments new policies come time staggering unemployment united states — currently 91 percent peak 101 percent 2009 twice high rates years ago largely republican controlled state houses proposals supported rhetoric misuse public funds excessive government spending increasing prevalence drug testing work place arguments align quite nicely proclaimed right wing preference cutting welfare programs government spending look past present initiatives reveals stated goals policies match reality\n\nthe economic effect making drug tests eligibility requirement public assistance appears marginal best negative worst aclu example report weeks following florida’s july adoption drug testing policy demonstrated state actually losing money initiative high cost drug testing kits outweighed money paid tested positive months data remain open interpretation used respective agendas times article noted remains small percent monthly benefits tested positive gone purchasing drugs people applying welfare need eat need place sleep need provide basic care families rendering ineligible welfare chances breaking cycle poverty drug use drastically reduced — reality economic burden struggling initiatives requiring drug testing benefits ruled unconstitutional past similar program struck michigan decade ago judge arguing mandatory drug testing violation citizen’s constitutionally guaranteed protection unreasonable search seizure logic difficult follow unless assume jobless probable cause drug use — gross instance discrimination based race class — reasonably require board importantly proposed enacted laws draw strength reinforce incredibly negative damaging stereotypes unemployed particularly given near doubling joblessness rate recent years standard portrayals benefits recipients as“welfare queensâ€ lazy incompetent drug addicts match reality unemployed americans simply victims recession struggling weather bad economic times times article discussed unemployed people busy trying make ends meet idea using affording drugs agree tragedy waste taxpayer’s dollars drug use greater tragedy lies drug addiction barring suffer addiction help feet exacerbate problems solidify class divides increase negative issue reflects growing concerning trend today’s politics — policies designed appeal party base actually accomplishing stated goals democrat republican lawmakers state national level grandstand party ideologies win election real people real problems suffering streets continue allow kinds policies — supported ideology fact — suffer consequences live worse world result\n\n');

Don&rsquo;t ask me why. To me it was just one of the houses on frat row. Once inside, I realized pretty quickly that this was not a &ldquo;house&rdquo; in the same sense as the lacrosse house, which I&rsquo;d been to a few times with some of my fellow freshman laxers.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;My friends and I joined in some drinking games with cups of tasty punch and were entertained by a few Tabards, whose clothing and personalities were, well, unconventional, but who were incredibly friendly and welcoming. All in all it was a good time. Did we feel awkward being the only lax bros within a mile or two? Sure, but it was Orientation, and awkwardly lingering in other people&rsquo;s houses was kind of what we did back then.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;An hour later I was in another basement, sitting on a bench with a few brothers I had just met. One of them asked what I had been up to that night. Though I knew that the Tabard wasn&rsquo;t exactly Bro Central, I figured there was no harm in admitting I&rsquo;d been there, so I mentioned it casually. One guy laughed and walked away. Another stared at me with a quizzically, with a slightly perturbed look on his face. And then one of them dumped a full cup of beer on my head.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Before you go railing against the insensitivity of fraternity brothers, let me say first the guy apologized several minutes later, and a year later when I de-pledged from his fraternity, he reached out to me to lend his support and respect for my decision. In hindsight, things worked out. But trekking back to the Choates that night, alone and confused, I wasn&rsquo;t feeling so at peace with the world or with this bro who had just doused me in warm Keystone.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;One week into freshman year, I had already made an apparently egregious faux pas. Struggling to figure out what the hell happened, I bounced back and forth between two thoughts: Either I was an idiot or those guys were assholes. Eventually I came to the conclusion that there were a few different ways of living, thinking and being that I had to choose between if I wanted to get by at Dartmouth. Evidently, some things got you props (being sick at pong), some things made you cool (being in a frat or on a sports team, acting like you don&rsquo;t care about school) and some things got beer dumped on you.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Did I turn my back on frat parties after that night? No, of course not. I wasn&rsquo;t about to miss out on the fun or suddenly bail on my friends. It wasn&rsquo;t the end of the world &mdash; a little beer in the hair never killed anyone &mdash; but it was part of a greater negative shift in my life. Instead of spending my free time outside, which was one of the reasons I came to Dartmouth, I hunkered down in basements four nights a week to make sure I was in the right places at the right times and acting the right way. Even when all I wanted to do read a book and fall asleep.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I would love to wrap this article up with a nice little bow by explaining how getting beer dumped on me sparked a revelation. I wish I could say that it got me past my craving for approval and helped me find my niche at Dartmouth, that it inspired me to treat myself and others with respect no matter what. But the reality is that we usually fail to act on behalf of our better selves. I can&rsquo;t say I&rsquo;m proud of the way I&rsquo;ve treated women in my time here. I can&rsquo;t say I&rsquo;ve always been a good friend. At some point though, we have to forgive ourselves for our failures. Dwelling on them for too long &mdash; assuming that we&rsquo;re so great we should never fail &mdash; is really just another form of self-importance. And it&rsquo;s paralyzing.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;We often become trapped by our notions of how things should be, stuck in the pernicious &ldquo;not&rdquo; as opposed to the liberated &ldquo;is.&rdquo; In a beer-soaked shirt on a September night three years ago, I convinced myself I was at a crossroad of great importance. Amidst the mental clamor of wrangling over what I should be and what Dartmouth should be, I missed the girl sitting on the bench outside Fahey, was deaf to the calm rustling of trees shaking off their summer leaves, was blind to the possibility of spending a restful night with my neighboring hallmates. I descended further and further into a place behind walls, and Dartmouth went on existing &mdash; living, shifting, growing, waiting for us to step outside.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:44+02:00', '', 'mirror dartmouthness \n the night i went freshman i went tabard don’t ask just houses frat row inside i realized pretty quickly “houseâ€ sense lacrosse house i’d times fellow freshman laxers\n\nmy friends i joined drinking games cups tasty punch entertained tabards clothing personalities unconventional incredibly friendly welcoming good time did feel awkward lax bros mile sure orientation awkwardly lingering people’s houses kind did then\n\nan hour later i basement sitting bench brothers i just met asked i night i knew tabard wasn’t exactly bro central i figured harm admitting i’d i mentioned casually guy laughed walked away stared quizzically slightly perturbed look face dumped cup beer head\n\nbefore railing insensitivity fraternity brothers let say guy apologized minutes later year later i pledged fraternity reached lend support respect decision hindsight things worked trekking choates night confused i wasn’t feeling peace world bro just doused warm week freshman year i apparently egregious faux struggling figure hell happened i bounced forth thoughts i idiot guys assholes eventually i came conclusion different ways living thinking i choose i wanted dartmouth evidently things got props sick pong things cool frat sports team acting like don’t care school things got beer dumped you\n\ndid i turn frat parties night course i wasn’t miss fun suddenly bail friends wasn’t end world — little beer hair killed — greater negative shift life instead spending free time outside reasons i came dartmouth i hunkered basements nights week make sure i right places right times acting right way i wanted read book asleep\n\ni love wrap article nice little bow explaining getting beer dumped sparked revelation i wish i say got past craving approval helped niche dartmouth inspired treat respect matter reality usually fail act behalf better selves i can’t say i’m proud way i’ve treated women time i can’t say i’ve good friend point forgive failures dwelling long — assuming we’re great fail — really just form self importance it’s trapped notions things stuck pernicious “notâ€ opposed liberated “isâ€ beer soaked shirt september night years ago i convinced i crossroad great importance amidst mental clamor wrangling i dartmouth i missed girl sitting bench outside fahey deaf calm rustling trees shaking summer leaves blind possibility spending restful night neighboring hallmates i descended place walls dartmouth went existing — living shifting growing waiting step outside\n\n');

After sitting in the waiting area and watching several students almost run straight through it, the risks of head trauma seem to outweigh the benefits of its (quite literal) message of transparency. The College probably thought a glass wall would be more welcoming than an intimidating set of engraved double doors, but the truth is, most students who are coming to see their deans aren&rsquo;t that worried about the ambience.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;These students are stressed. They don&rsquo;t want to deal with transparent doors. They want help.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;I made an appointment to speak with a dean much earlier in my Dartmouth career than I had anticipated. I had a few questions to ask for an article and didn&rsquo;t have any reason to be nervous, but I couldn&rsquo;t help but feel the tension in the room while I waited. If you ever want to watch a group of Dartmouth students sweat, the lobby outside of the deans&rsquo; offices is probably one of campus&rsquo; prime spots to do so. The issues people present to their deans were different, but the looks of confusion and signs of distress were the same.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Wait, what exactly are all of these students approaching their deans about?&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Problems presented to deans are &ldquo;not easy to categorize,&rdquo; Undergraduate Dean Leigh Remy said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Remy works primarily with undergraduate seniors but is experienced in counseling Dartmouth students of all grades.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Even if a student comes into ask an academic question, conversation will often also veer toward the personal, she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;That said, Remy said the vast majority of students approach her in a &ldquo;questioning phase&rdquo; &mdash; as opposed to crisis mode. Remy said she is versed in a diverse range of topics, from inquiries about NROs and the D-Plan to general confusion on how to narrow one&rsquo;s academic interests.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;According to Remy, about 3,500 students consult their deans for one-on-one advising each year. Additionally, in the last four years the dean&rsquo;s offices have received an average of 12,600 directed email or phone inquiries each year. Although the majority of &rsquo;12s interviewed by The Mirror claimed to have relied on their deans in the past year, underclassmen seem far warier of making the trip to the deans&rsquo; office.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Everyone that I&rsquo;ve heard of going to the deans office had to because they had to do something serious like dropping a class at the end of the term,&rdquo; a &rsquo;14 male said. &ldquo;I haven&rsquo;t had a serious problem like that, so I haven&rsquo;t gone.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;He also said that he usually prefers self-sufficiency to seeking help, mostly out of habit.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;So why don&rsquo;t we approach them more? For many of us who got through high school without the help of tutors and administrators, it can be difficult to adjust our thinking to embrace these people as assets and not as disciplinarians.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Remy understands the challenge in readjusting our self-sufficiency, but she implores students to put things in perspective.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Think about how you got to Dartmouth.&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;Did you really do it by yourself?&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Remy added that student-athletes are more likely to understand the value of seeking help, after regularly turning to coaches and teammates.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;While it would be ideal for Dartmouth students to approach their deans just for the sake of receiving sound advice, many still view an appointment as a sign that something is wrong. Remy disagreed, saying that while academic upsets do occur around midterms or finals, they do not represent the typical issues that face undergraduate deans.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;The majority of the conversations aren&rsquo;t about failure, she said. &ldquo;Students are typically just trying to figure out the decisions they&rsquo;re considering and want a second opinion.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;She understood, however, where the stigma stemmed from.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Think about the type of student who comes to Dartmouth,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;You all have high expectations for yourselves. You are all high achievers. But until you get here, the marker of achievement has always been GPA and SAT scores. You come off of a 4.0 in high school and get a 3.2 &mdash; the average for freshmen Fall &mdash; your first term here.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Remy said that students&rsquo; interpretations of such an achievement as a failure is &ldquo;pretty common,&rdquo; even &ldquo;natural.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;She&rsquo;s right: A lot of us got through high school without getting a B, so it&rsquo;s hard to wrap our heads around the idea that it&rsquo;ll probably happen here. Is it really so wrong to call it failure?&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Not necessarily.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Not getting an A for the first time is a very real feeling and I don&rsquo;t want to take away from that,&rdquo; Remy said. &ldquo;But it&rsquo;s what you do with that feeling that determines if you fail or not.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;That said, disappointment is one thing &mdash; but resultant inaction is another.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Are you not going to risk taking a class because you&rsquo;re afraid you won&rsquo;t get an A?&rdquo; Remy asked. &ldquo;If you really want to talk about failure, fear is the defining issue.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;While it would be ideal for Dartmouth students to pick the classes that we think we will learn the most from, for many of us, the security of a high median grade on the course review guide is a much more important factor.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Once in a while I see a student who is afraid to see their GPA drop, so they&rsquo;ll leave a class if they have a B,&rdquo; Remy said. &ldquo;I think what happens for most students is that they don&rsquo;t get straight As there first term, so that pressure goes away immediately.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;How reassuring.

INSERT INTO `items1` VALUES (1290, 'THE MIRROR: Derailed at Dartmouth', 'http://thedartmouth.com/2011/10/14/mirror/derailed/', '\n        &lt;p&gt;At a school where it&rsquo;s easy to constantly perceive perfection, admitting failure is difficult. No one cares to share that disappointing moment, and few wish to recall the feeling that erupted when success was unattainable. Filled with individuals who have excelled for years, Dartmouth consists of those who have always prided themselves on their achievements. What is not discussed, however, are those times when we struggled, even crashed and burned. In theory, we justify failure if it results from exploration and leads to personal growth &mdash; but what constitutes failure here?&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;For freshmen, the transition from high school to college complicates their definition of failure. Thrust into a college environment, freshmen are already struggling not to depend on grades in order to define themselves.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;College is all about exploration,&rdquo; Natalie Shell &rsquo;15 said. &ldquo;You are supposed to fail.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;That said, the concept of a GPA has not yet sunk in for freshmen &mdash; myself included &mdash; so we tend to live by this hypothetically optimism mantra.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;After the sting of a less than perfect GPA sets in for our campus of overachievers, however, failure remains linked to academic performance. A &rsquo;14 male, for example, pictures failure at Dartmouth as one-dimensional: you fail by failing a class, he said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Failure for him was purely academic, he said, and he seemed surprised that someone could think otherwise. Whether his opinions were founded on personal values or his college experience thus far, this student found no interest in discussing his blunt views further.\nRegardless of how much we&rsquo;ve &ldquo;changed&rdquo; since high school, Dartmouth students have extremely high academic expectations for themselves.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;The only time academically where I felt that I failed, or let myself down, was having to drop a class because it was too rigorous,&rdquo; said an &rsquo;09 male, reflecting upon his time at the College.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Many students come to Dartmouth accustomed to success, never having been exposed to an impossible test. We must question, therefore, how many students shy away from these challenges, unwilling to test the limits of their intelligence.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I would never take a class that I knew that I would do poorly in,&rdquo; said a &rsquo;15 female. &ldquo;That seems like self-inflicted pain.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;She referenced the competitive drive her private high school had instilled in her as a reason for such a mentality.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;My school programmed me for success, and I guess success meant [getting into] a good college,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s not cool, but I took classes I knew I would excel in, and I guess it worked out in the end.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Having been pressured to build the ideal resume, many students are unaccustomed to taking chances simply for the sake of it. After all, the sentiment she expressed is not unusual: Students distribute &ldquo;lay-up&rdquo; lists and discuss &ldquo;slam-dunk&rdquo; courses from Blitz to Baker-Berry. Are successful students uniquely risk-averse? When faced with insurmountable obstacles, do students choose to quit rather than fail &mdash; or are some of us willing to sacrifice the A for something else?&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Failure to me is when I feel like I haven&rsquo;t worked hard,&rdquo; Jasmine Kumalah &rsquo;12 said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s not necessarily the end process but more of how I got there.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kumalah said that less than perfect grades did not necessarily discourage her.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Success is not based on whether I got an A or B &mdash; which is how I feel Dartmouth students depict failure &mdash; but if I think I learned a lot in class,&rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kumalah said she does believe that Dartmouth encourages academic and personal exploration, yet that students themselves create an atmosphere in which failing to achieve success is looked down upon.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Though the fear of academic failure is prevalent in our community, disappointment also exists in not achieving certain social goals. To new students, Dartmouth seems like an environment in which everyone is involved in an inordinate number of activities. We are both intimidated yet exhilarated by the intense immersion into extracurriculars, and not participating in countless clubs and organizations seems to indicate some sort of failure.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Dartmouth students are seemingly &ldquo;superhuman,&rdquo; said Annie Oppenheim &rsquo;15, discussing the pressure she feels to join as many clubs as possible to keep up with her unbelievably occupied peers.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Without copious extracurriculars, she said, &ldquo;I would feel that I was failing to experience Dartmouth to its fullest.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Another female &rsquo;14 student sees social failure at Dartmouth as the inability &ldquo;to connect with people on a personal level&rdquo; despite our chronic over-involvement.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;There are so many amazing people here, so not being able to make genuine connections does not mean you are doing something wrong, but makes you feel as if you are missing out,&rdquo; she said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Everyone is &ldquo;constantly waving to people and greeting people wherever they walk,&rdquo; she said, seemingly indicating that everyone has a multitude of friends. Even Dartmouth advertises its close-knit community to prospective students, so those who find it difficult to instantly mesh with the community can feel as if they have failed to experience college fully.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I couldn&rsquo;t find people I felt comfortable with, and I wasn&rsquo;t having as much fun as I thought I would,&rdquo; she said of her freshmen year.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;At a school with a &ldquo;study hard, party harder&rdquo; atmosphere, students definitely perceive social pressure to have fun. Indeed, it seems taboo for an individual to admit to not having an enjoyable experience.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kumalah said she experienced such dissatisfaction during her junior Fall. In an attempt to &ldquo;fit in,&rdquo; she decided to join many new organizations that term, only to regret the decision later.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;That was my biggest failure at Dartmouth, when I stopped being myself and tried to become something else,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;In that moment, if I hadn&rsquo;t realized how good it is to do the things that make you happy, I wouldn&rsquo;t have realized the importance of constantly checking with yourself and making sure that what you&rsquo;re doing is something that you&rsquo;re interested in.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Kumalah clarified that not fitting in does not indicate failure, especially if &ldquo;you carve out your own personal niche.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Though we are students who have pushed ourselves to perfection, and the concept of failure may be foreign to many of us, we must be reminded that failure is fully subjective. Mistakes can be beneficial, flawlessness is unrealistic and admittance of defeat is admirable.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:46+02:00', '', 'mirror derailed dartmouth \n at school it’s easy constantly perceive perfection admitting failure difficult cares share disappointing moment wish recall feeling erupted success unattainable filled individuals excelled years dartmouth consists prided achievements discussed times struggled crashed burned theory justify failure results exploration leads personal growth — constitutes failure here\n\nfor freshmen transition high school college complicates definition failure thrust college environment freshmen struggling depend grades order define explorationâ€ natalie shell ’15 said “you supposed said concept gpa sunk freshmen — included — tend live hypothetically optimism sting perfect gpa sets campus overachievers failure remains linked academic performance ’14 male example pictures failure dartmouth dimensional fail failing class purely academic said surprised think opinions founded personal values college experience far student discussing blunt views further\nregardless we’ve “changedâ€ high school dartmouth students extremely high academic expectations time academically i felt i failed let having drop class rigorousâ€ said ’09 male reflecting time students come dartmouth accustomed success having exposed impossible test question students shy away challenges unwilling test limits class i knew i poorly inâ€ said ’15 female “that like self inflicted painâ€\n\nshe referenced competitive drive private high school instilled reason school programmed success i guess success meant getting good collegeâ€ said “it’s cool i took classes i knew i excel i guess worked pressured build ideal resume students unaccustomed taking chances simply sake sentiment expressed unusual students distribute “lay upâ€ lists discuss “slam dunkâ€ courses blitz baker berry successful students uniquely risk averse faced insurmountable obstacles students choose quit fail — willing sacrifice i feel like i haven’t worked hardâ€ jasmine kumalah ’12 said “it’s necessarily end process i got said perfect grades did necessarily discourage based i got b — i feel dartmouth students depict failure — i think i learned lot classâ€ said does believe dartmouth encourages academic personal exploration students create atmosphere failing achieve success looked upon\n\nthough fear academic failure prevalent community disappointment exists achieving certain social goals new students dartmouth like environment involved inordinate number activities intimidated exhilarated intense immersion extracurriculars participating countless clubs organizations indicate sort students seemingly “superhumanâ€ said annie oppenheim ’15 discussing pressure feels join clubs possible unbelievably occupied copious extracurriculars said “i feel i failing experience dartmouth female ’14 student sees social failure dartmouth inability “to connect people personal levelâ€ despite chronic amazing people able make genuine connections does mean doing wrong makes feel missing outâ€ “constantly waving people greeting people walkâ€ said seemingly indicating multitude friends dartmouth advertises close knit community prospective students difficult instantly mesh community feel failed experience college fully\n\n“i couldn’t people i felt comfortable i wasn’t having fun i thought i wouldâ€ said freshmen year\n\nat school “study hard party harderâ€ atmosphere students definitely perceive social pressure fun taboo individual admit having enjoyable said experienced dissatisfaction junior attempt “fit inâ€ decided join new organizations term regret decision biggest failure dartmouth i stopped tried elseâ€ said “in moment i hadn’t realized good things make happy i wouldn’t realized importance constantly checking making sure you’re doing you’re interested clarified fitting does indicate failure especially “you carve personal students pushed perfection concept failure foreign reminded failure fully subjective mistakes beneficial flawlessness unrealistic admittance defeat admirable\n\n');

Rick Perry, R-Texas &mdash; one of the front-runners for the 2012 presidential election&rsquo;s republican ticket &mdash; decided to do a little frat hopping to promote the governor. While he didn&rsquo;t complete a circuit during his stay at Dartmouth, Perry&rsquo;s 28-year-old son Griffin did make a pit stop at Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity on Tuesday afternoon at a casual mixer to discuss politics and his father&rsquo;s campaign.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;It&rsquo;s always nice to see girls at a frat house during the day,&rdquo; Griffin quipped during his introduction.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The Texan governor&rsquo;s son delivered a brief presentation very catered to his college audience, praising the students in attendance for their involvement in the political process.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;That means you&rsquo;re thinking about your future,&rdquo; he said.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Regarding his father&rsquo;s campaign platform, Griffin Perry said his father is not a believer in government-created jobs, but that entrepreneurs can help create jobs as a solution to the national issue of unemployment. He added, however, he could not &ldquo;go into the full detail today.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;In response to a student&rsquo;s question about the specific issues with which Perry&rsquo;s competition must contend during the debate, Griffin Perry suggested that former Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Mass., appeals to a limited scope of Republicans and must prove himself during Tuesday&rsquo;s debate.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Can Mitt Romney reach out to more voters?&rdquo; Griffin Perry asked.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;He also commented on the limited topic of Tuesday&rsquo;s debate, which solely focused on economic issues.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;It might be a little boring unless you love economics,&rdquo; Perry cautioned three members of Alpha Xi Delta sorority. One assured him that she was an economics major, however, and she was excited for the debate.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;On several occasion, Griffin &mdash; who said his father had been practicing a great deal for Tuesday&rsquo;s debate &mdash; made reference to the governor&rsquo;s record as his &ldquo;strongest attribute&rdquo; in comparison to the other candidates.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;Another student asked Griffin to comment on the Occupy Wall Street protests in New York, about which Griffin admitted he did not know a lot of details.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t necessarily know what their point is,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;You&rsquo;ve got to know what you stand for.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;On the topic of the debate itself, Griffin said he would be looking forward to seeing all eight candidates speak in a formal setting.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Everybody&rsquo;s going to be more polished,&rdquo; Griffin Perry said. &ldquo;Not just Dad, but the other candidates.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The younger Perry predicted &mdash; pretty accurately &mdash; that former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., former Gov. Jon Huntsman, R-Utah, and former Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Penn., wouldn&rsquo;t be speaking much at the debate, which he said would center more on his father and Romney.

Though the pair&rsquo;s neon attire and the far-out cover artwork may have suggested otherwise, this was no hallucination.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;In a experimental measure to counter what they perceive as the failing advertising efforts of book publishers today, &ldquo;Too Far&rdquo; publisher Outside Reading decided to generate buzz through good old-fashioned word of mouth. Therrien, East Coast brand representative for outside reading, described the effort as a &ldquo;grassroots approach&rdquo; for a &ldquo;publishing industry in dire straits.&rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;The idea behind the marketing ploy is to avoid what Therrien termed &ldquo;top-down advertising,&rdquo; in which the publisher expends large sums of money in attempts to promote the book. Outside Reading&rsquo;s strategy, instead, aims to generate hype organically, Therrien said. By distributing free copies of novels to key demographics, the publishing company hopes that the increase exposure translates to higher sales figures.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;According to Therrien, the company&rsquo;s &ldquo;psychometric maps&rdquo; identified Dartmouth, along with a number of other prominent colleges on the East Coast, as a focal point for promoting &ldquo;Too Far.&quot; The novel, as described by Therrien, is a psychedelic adventure tale of two troubled Alaskan children trying to cope with an abusive family. The book comes bundled with &ldquo;Dawn Remembers,&rdquo; an accompanying audio disc containing music intended to serve as a backdrop during the readers literary experience.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n&lt;p&gt;&ldquo;Too Far&rdquo; is currently available for purchase on &lt;a href=&quot;www.toofar.com&quot;&gt;www.toofar.com&lt;/a&gt; for $9.99.&lt;/p&gt;\n\n      ', '2011-10-15T22:37:51+02:00', '', 'blog free books distributed generate hype \n the patrons dirt cowboy passersby outside collis gotten little bargained yesterday dynamic duo james therrien lidya esrig distributed free copies “too farâ€ recent book venture capitalist turned ');

We do so many things each day, and each function is carried out by a specific organ as it collaborates with the other parts of the body that need a very specific environment to function correctly. Homeostasis maintains these different environments so that each organ can function at maximum potential.
