2015 Town Report Suite 225, 10 Water St., Lebanon, NH 03766 TOWN OF HANOVER NEW HAMPSHIRE ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2015 & 2016 TOWN MEETING ANNUAL TOWN MEETING Tuesday, May 10, 2016 Voting: 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Business Meeting: 7:00 p.m. Hanover High School Gymnasium 41 Lebanon Street FIRE DEPARTMENT IN REMEMBRANCE JERYL L. FRANKENFIELD On September 13, 2015, the Town of Hanover lost a valued friend. Jerry was the cornerstone of the Fire Department, spending a 42 year career working in various positions for the department, most recently that of the Deputy Fire Chief / Hanover Fire Marshal. Jerry was a thoughtful, passionate person who valued codes, rules and regulations. His goal was to make both the Town of Hanover and the Dartmouth campus a safer place for its citizens and students. His job required him to work with people of all walks of life and he earned the respect of professors, administrators, contractors and laborers alike. He had a valued, longstanding working relationship with Dartmouth College and he knew top to bottom every building on campus, as well as in the Town. As a tribute to Jerry for his service to their community, on September 25-26, 2015, Dartmouth College lowered their flag to half-staff on the Green; a tradition reserved to honor deceased trustees, students, faculty and staff and one that speaks volumes. Jerry was highly respected by those he worked with at the Hanover schools and he remained a volunteer for the high school’s annual Project Graduation long after his children had graduated. On a personal side, Jeryl was an avid collector of antique John Deere tractors and a member of many clubs. He also shared his joy of deep sea fishing with many of his co-workers taking them on annual fishing trips to Maine. Jerry, you were a “class act” who gave us so many cherished memories!

St. Lawrence officially opens the 2008-09 campaign Friday, October 10 as it visits Yost Arena to take on defending CCHA postseason and NCAA Frozen Four participant Michigan in Ann Arbor. Coach Joe Marsh's Saints battle the Wolverines in a two-game season-opening series. Rensselaer carries the ECAC Hockey banner north of the border Saturday, October 11 as it travels to Quebec City, Quebec to compete against former League member and current Hockey East foe Vermont at the Pavillon de la Jeunesse, which is part of Quebec's 400th anniversary celebration. Each school will also have a legendary hockey alum as an honorary captain — both of whom are Quebec natives. Rensselaer will be represented by Joe Juneau, a two-time All-American who scored 213 career points for the Engineers prior to embarking on a 13-year National Hockey League career. Serving as UVM's honorary captain is Martin St. Louis, Vermont's all-time leading scorer and a three-time All-American and winner of the NHL's Hart, Ross, and Pearson trophies in 2004. Defending regular-season champion Clarkson takes to the road to open its campaign, battling RIT Friday, October 17 and Niagara Saturday, October 18 at Blue Cross Arena in Rochester, NY.

    Welcome to Dartmouth! The Campus and Community Resource Guide has been developed as a demonstration of Dartmouth’s commitment to recruiting a diverse and talented work force. This Guide includes employees from the Dartmouth community willing to speak informally and confidentially with you regarding interests and/or questions you have about Dartmouth and the Up- per Valley Community that might not be addressed in the formal search process. The employees listed in this Guide represent a broad range of interests and activities that include, but are not lim- ited to, the diversity of the community, child care resources, and dual career couple issues. The Guide also includes a listing of of- fices on campus that focus on similar issues. In the back of the Guide we have listed a number of community organizations that also represent a broad range of interests. While we tried to be in- clusive of the community resources, we have only listed those in- dividuals and organizations that responded to our request for infor- mation. Please note: we are not endorsing these organizations; this is for informational purposes only. Please feel free to contact any one listed to discuss aspects of Dart- mouth and the Upper Valley Community that are of interest to you.

However, it was of course, he emphasized, "not intended as a history of the college during the time discussed." He then went on to indicate that what had been produced was also, essentially, "about institutional gover­ nance within the context of higher education"—declaring: "It is hoped that this publication may serve to inform boards of trustees about certain criteria that can be employed in choosing presidential succes­ sors.

  • Dartmouth's Community Impact
    Dartmouth’s Community Impact September 2018 Introduction: Dartmouth College educates the most promising students and prepares them for a lifetime of learning and of responsible leadership, through a faculty dedicated to teaching and the creation of knowledge. In fulfilling its mission as an educational institution, Dartmouth strives to serve its students as well as the Upper Valley community through its role as an employer, collaborator, and innovator. This report illustrates the symbiotic relationship between Dartmouth, Hanover, and the Upper Valley in areas including economic impact, research and innovation, education, arts and culture, sustainability and conservation. Economic impact: Dartmouth has a substantial financial impact on the local, regional, and state economies of New Hampshire and Vermont. Taxes & Fees: Dartmouth pays taxes on all dormitories, dining rooms, and kitchens with values in excess of $150K, as well as about 500 off-campus rental properties and commercial properties (approximately 53% of its Hanover property holdings). Dartmouth is Hanover’s largest taxpayer, contributing roughly 20% of the taxes in support of the county, town, and school budgets. Employment: Dartmouth is New Hampshire’s ninth largest service sector employer with 3,497 resident employees (Dartmouth Hitchcock is the largest employer with 9,100 employees)1. In FY17 Dartmouth paid $464M in payroll and employee benefits. Dartmouth is also a large local spender. According to an analysis of purchasing data, Dartmouth spent about $146M in New Hampshire and Vermont in FY172. Dartmouth’s economic impact extends beyond its direct actions as a local spender and employer. Dartmouth’s 4,300 undergraduate and 2,000 graduate students make up a significant portion of Hanover’s total population and, as residents and consumers, play a critical role in the local economy.
