I hope many of you were able to be there to celebrate in the victories. What a change from last year's doldrums season. Not only did football bring horne the bacon, but the men's soccer team won the Ivy's, men's cross country won its seventh straight Heps, and rugby is having a tremendous season. It sure makes the encounters with business associates from those lesser schools a little easier. The Fall has brought another job change for me. I recently joined a company in West Lebanon, Direct Imaging. It is a small start-up which makes a machine to manufacture multi-layer printed circuit boards. We need sales, so if anyone out there needs quick turn PCBs (1 day!), give me a call at (603)298- 8383. Ted Scheu (Sherborn, MA) has started his own advertising and communications business in Wellesley, Adsrniths. He specializes in press releases, brochures and other public items requiring copy. Ted recently ventured up to Hanover for Nick's ('78) wedding. Ted is married and has 2 children ages 5 and 2. Robin is a VP in commercial banking at Bank of Boston. So if any of you need some excellent marketing material created, give Ted a call (508)239-3553. DARTMOUTH '76 Newsletter November 1990 Lest you think this is an advertising column, let me continue with the class green cards. Christopher Davidson (Beverly Hills, CA) [I forgot to include the following press release in my last newsletter]: "Chris Davidson has been named Vice President, Current Programs for Fox Broadcasting Company, it was announced today by Paul Stupin, Executive Vice President, Series Programming, to whom he will report. Mr Davidson will oversee the production and development of Fox's current prime time programming. 'We are very excited to have Chris Davidson on board to supervise our current prime time schedule. His skills in this area are among the best in the business and we look forward to the many contributions he will bring to the department,' Mr. Stupin said. Mr Davidson comes to Fox from CBS Entertainment, where he served for two years as its Director of Current Programs. He had been with CBS Broadcast Group for 10 years in various capacities both in Los Angeles and New York prior to his appointment as Director. Mr. Davidson began his broadcasting career in Houston at Taft Broadcasting Corporation where he served as consultant to the president. While there, he oversaw the planning of a television station in Hartford, VT." Dan Sheedy (Malden, MA): "Two big events this year. Just promoted to tan (oops, tax) manager at Deloitte & Touche in Boston. Also elected president of Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Boston. This is going to be the challenge. Tell classmates and other classes I need help (50 Milk Street, Boston, MA 02109). See Tom Gwin and his wife and 2 kids often. Often see other Dartmouth classes, Bob Leach. Everyone is fine." Marc G. Lacasse (Arlington, MA): "I guess it is about time to write again. I am still working at the Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge. Last fall my wife and I bought a house in Arlington and have spent the last year turning it into a home. In early May our first child was born (so much for working on the house!>, a son we named William." Jeff Zesiger (Northhampton, MA): "Eureka, I will be a Daddy again, Jan 1991! Even with my medical background, I was amazed at how well I could see Igor with the ultrasound. Fingers, eyes, heart and, yes, even a male device. Seeing your own kid makes medicine personal. Dorien got through the first trimester with only one good boot!! Women are tough." Joel Goldfield (Durham, NC): "Iris, Julian (our 5-week old, born in Lebanon, NH) and I are headed South for my sabbatical at Duke and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Will be working on computer and language 1 learning projects and a book on 19 h Century French literature (do n·t ask me how they Page 2 DARTMOUTH '76 Newsletter November 1990 /Jre relA ted! And it's IIOl /J typo.) Looking forward to the on-going "sabbatical project" with Julian most of all! Any 76'ers in the Raleigh-Durham and Chapel Hill area?" 2203 Sprunt Ave., 27705, (919)684-3637 wk. Chip Abrahamsen (Largo, FL): Chip, it was great to get your note. Can anyone fill in the missing word from JoAnn's infamous quote? 'Aren't my-­ -- pisser, Dickie?' "I've settled into life on the West Coast of Florida. Being an Orthopedic Surgeon in Florida is like being a mechanic in a junkyard. Shot a 38 on the back nine of a Tom Fazio designed course last week - difficult, considering the flying elbow, so useful in chugging, wreaks havoc on one's golf game (but so essential to your chugging style, Chipper, you've got to have priorities!). I visited Peter Friedensohn in Milton, MAin August- he has three children to match my three. Coaching my six year old son's soccer team and working on my "E" license. Putting the finishing touches on a beach house if anyone is interested in visiting." 10556 Indian Hills Court, 34647. John Reidy (Walpole, MA): "My wife Maureen and I have two children now. Caroline was born April 24, 1990 and joins her brother Christopher, age 4. I am now an attorney at Riemer & Braunstein. We represent many banks in the Boston area and therefore are very busy." Gregory Payne (Burbank, CA): "Still in Los Angeles practicing cartoon law at DIC Animation City, Inc. DIC has about 30% of the Saturday morning TV market. It his a lot of fun, but certainly not "Hollywood". Margaret and I just bought a house in West Los Angeles. Like all Southern California real estate, it is undersized and overpriced, but we are enjoying fixing it up. I see Al Jones and Rich Nichols every now and then when they come to S. Cal. They are doing well." David Plane: "Hi, I've recently taken on being Head of the Department of Geography and Regional Development of the University of Arizona. As one former Department Chair once explained, "it's a lot like herding rats." I'm also now Editor-in-Chief of Papers in Regional Science, the quarterly journal of the 3,000 member Regional Science Association International. My wife, Kathy Jacobs (Middlebury '77), my three year old daughter, Emily, and six year old labrador /beagle mutt, Jessie, still manage to escape to the mountains around the state for some camping- and we always manage at least two weeks each summer back at Kathy's house on the Maine Coast. Paper presentations and regional science business the last couple of years have taken me to Singapore, Korea, China, Israel, and Urbana, lllinois." John Glover (Wassenaar, Netherlands): "Custis and I moved to Holland on March 1 on a job transfer within International Distillers and Vintners. I am Page3 DARTMOUTH '76 Newsletter November 1990 now International Brand Director for Sambuca Romana, working in Amsterdam with a London head office. I travel half the time, to London 2-3 times a month. Big change, but everyone likes being in Europe." Jennifer Kintzing Cadoff (East Brunswick, NJ): "We welcomed Eli Benjamin on June 7, 1990. Rebecca, almost 3, is adjusting quite well (those stray balls that bounce off his head are purely accidental). I'm back to freelancing after a summer off for "maternity leave" -- and now have more editing and writing assignments than I can possibly handle. (I love saying "sure". Hate doing the work! What else is new.) We see Kathy Heintzelman lots. She's doing a great job at Entertainment Weekly Magazine. Jacqueline Bello (Pleasantville, NY): "In May 1990, I left Columbia Presbyterian Hospital (Neurological Institute) to become the Director of Neuroradiology at Montefiore Medical Center, affiliated with the Albert Einstein College of Medicine." Dan Jones (Sterling, CO) (written by his wife Laurie, thanks!): "Since Dan usually corresponds via E-mail, I have the task of sending our news! We are starting our 2nd year in Colorado and are enjoying our son Jonathon - age 5 months. Dan is a computer consultant and occasionally is in NYC and sees Caroline Ballard, Dave Bandfield, and Bruce Bell. We regularly escape the high-tech world and travel demands by heading to our farm a few miles from our "town" residence!" Sounds great to me! Jack Nicholson (Glen Ellyn, IL): "I've moved across town and moved within the First National Bank of Chicago (FNBC, Near North Banking Center, Suite 0565, Chicago, IL 60670). New job, new house, night school-- I guess I'll sleep next year." Brad Fletcher (Portland, OR): "Was in Hanover for Dartmouth vs.

    Jeffrey Hart ʻ51 Professor of English Emeritus An Interview Conducted by Jane Carroll July 15, 1997 July 18, 1997 DOH-11 Special Collections Dartmouth College Hanover, New Hampshire Jeffrey Hart Interview INTERVIEW: Jeffrey Hart ʻ51 INTERVIEWED BY: Jane Carroll PLACE: Baker Library Hanover, New Hampshire DATE: July 15, 1997 CARROLL: Today is July 15, 1997, and I am speaking with Jeffrey Hart, Class of ʻ51 and Professor of English, Emeritus. I am curious how you came to choose Dartmouth as the institution for undergraduate learning. HART: It was chosen for me. My father went to Dartmouth, Class of 1921 [Clifford F. Brown ʻ21]. Then he went to Columbia School of Architecture and got his Bachelor of Architecture there; but he was extremely loyal to Dartmouth and I felt that his four years at Dartmouth were probably the happiest of his life. He always seemed to be seriously connected with Dartmouth and I was, as a matter of fact, registered or enrolled in the Class of whatever, enrolled at Dartmouth when I was born. So I grew up understanding that I would go to Dartmouth. However there was a bump in that road since I got heavily involved with junior competitive tennis and felt that I probably would like to go to Stanford. His position was that I could go to Stanford. That would be fine, but he wouldnʼt pay for it. [Laughter] I could go to Dartmouth or I could go to Harvard if I got a scholarship. I did get some kind of tuition break at Dartmouth and that was the best deal, and I was perfectly happy to go to Dartmouth.

  • President's Message
    SUMMER, FALL, WINTER 2016-17 President’s Message Brothers, Greetings and best wishes from your brothers at 1 Webster Avenue! Wherever you are in the world, I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing especially enthusiastically as it is my honor and privilege to wish you a happy 175th year of our proud brotherhood. I hope this letter helps you feel more connected with our brotherhood as it updates you on the activity at 1 Webster Avenue over the past months. Our brothers have had a busy few terms this year as we continue to transform our beautifully renovated house into a home. To start, the undergraduates filled the central stairwell, GOTE, and third floor suite with composites dating all the way back to the 1950s. Now we can see and feel the rich heritage of Tri-Kap throughout the house. We've also further finished the basement by adding benches, multicolored LED lighting, and artwork from years past. We have worked extensively with our contractor to ensure the safety of the bottles that previously lined the walls of middle room. Thanks to our winter term Kasa Krew, these bottles are back up in the basement, and look as good as ever! In the fall, we were lucky enough to have John Mitchell '60 and the Class of '60 significantly contribute to our move-in efforts by donating a marble bench dedicated to their late classmate Tony Rodolakis'60. President’s Message Cont’d The bench's marble came from the same quarry as the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C.

    The Dartmouth Review: The Punishment Does Not Fit the 'Crime' The Punishment Does Not Fit the 'Crime' by Alexander Harrison Wah-hoo-wah! There, I’ve done it. I have espoused a traditional, and by some views racist, cheer. I have done it in a public forum, and although I may be sober, my cheer is directed at everyone—both those who might be offended and those who aren’t. Scalp ‘em, scalp ‘em! Thus far, the debate surrounding the Psi Upsilon chanting incident has centered around the rights of those involved. The Anonymous victim’s rights, the fraternity’s rights, In this TDR Online the chanters’ rights, and the Dartmouth Community’s right to an appropriate atmosphere have all been fiercely defended. Perhaps most discussed are the rights of the issue: Anonymous victim. However, while she has many defendable rights, the ‘right’ not to be offended is not one of them. Home Two Cheap Shots Archives Whether or not the chanting at Psi U was offensive—nay, disgusting—has already been agreed upon. From Deans to editorialists to minority organizations to the two fraternity members, everyone with a voice to be heard has denounced the actions of that night as wrong and bigoted. However, if I were to walk outside this moment and scream “wah- Dorm- Sections hoo-wah, scalp ‘em,” I would not be violating anyone’s rights, but merely expressing an opinion. If I yelled it at a passing girl, I would not be violating her rights, but rather Locking: A Search offending her. Dean of Residential Life Redman’s treatment of Psi U suggests otherwise.

I am curious. You grew up in St. Louis. How did you get to Dartmouth? BERTHOLD: My scout master was a fellow by the name of Tom Curtis, who was an avid Dartmouth fan, later a Trustee of the College and also Congressman from Missouri and he talked Dartmouth to me endlessly, showed me pictures of Dartmouth and the pictures were so beautiful I thought, "That's where I want to go." Also there were a lot of people from my high school, Webster Groves High School, that had come to Dartmouth and I knew those people. So that's where I wanted to go. CARROLL: Do you have any family connections with Dartmouth? BERTHOLD: None whatever. No. CARROLL: When you came to Dartmouth, it was 1941. What was the campus like? BERTHOLD: Very male. Very male chauvinist. I think in many ways a wonderful place. I always used to say that I was extremely fortunate because I was here at a time when many of the students had things other than the academic life on their minds, which meant that the professors were so delighted to see anybody [laughter] who actually took more than a casual interest in their subject that I got to know a lot of wonderful faculty people very well.

I am Mary Donin and I am sitting in Rauner Library with Jack Skewes, the former business manager of Dartmouth College. So we're talking about chronology here, Mr. Skewes. I guess I would first like to start out by hearing a little bit about your undergraduate years at Dartmouth. First of all I would like to know how you ended up coming to Dartmouth in the first place. Did you have family? JACK SKEWES: No family. I was born in Claremont, New Hampshire and lived there through my junior year in high school. My dad and mother used to bring me up to Dartmouth football games and track meets when we were competing against Army that had Glenn Davis, "Doc" Blanchard -- great All-Americans -- and basketball games, particularly during World War II when ROTC programs were here and Dartmouth was getting all of these All-Americans from all over the country coming in to train. So I just was sort of a Dartmouth fan from being a kid. Then we moved to Concord, Massachusetts, when I was a senior. My dad took a job down there, and I went to Concord High School my senior year and the principal of the school was a Dartmouth graduate.
