It consists of a liberal arts college, the Geisel School of Medicine, the Thayer School of Engineering, and the Tuck School of Business, as well as 19 graduate programs in the arts and sciences.[6] Incorporated as the "Trustees of Dartmouth College,"[7] it is one of the nine Colonial Colleges founded before the American Revolution.[8] With an undergraduate enrollment of 4,276 and a total student enrollment of 6,342 (as of 2013), Dartmouth is the smallest university in the Ivy League.[3] It was the last Ivy League school to admit women, in 1972.[9] Dartmouth College was established in 1769 by Eleazar Wheelock, a Congregational minister. After a long period of financial and political struggles, Dartmouth emerged in the early 20th century from relative obscurity.[10] Dartmouth's 269-acre (1.09 km2) campus is in the rural Upper Valley region of New Hampshire. Participation in athletics and the school's Greek system is strong.[11] Dartmouth's 34 varsity sports teams compete in the Ivy League conference of the NCAA Division I. Students are well known for preserving a variety of strong campus traditions.[12][13][14][15] Contents [hide] 1History 2Academics o 2.1Rankings o 2.2Admissions o 2.3Financial aid o 2.4The Dartmouth Plan o 2.5Board of Trustees 3Campus o 3.1Academic facilities o 3.2Athletic facilities o 3.3Housing and student life facilities o 3.4Trees and grounds 4Student life o 4.1Student groups o 4.2Athletics o 4.3Native Americans at Dartmouth o 4.4Traditions 5Insignia and other representations o 5.1Motto and song o 5.2Seal o 5.3Shield o 5.4Nickname, symbol, and mascot 6Alumni o 6.1Postgraduation statistics 7In popular culture 8References 9Further reading 10External links History[edit] See also: List of presidents of Dartmouth College Dartmouth was founded by Eleazar Wheelock, a Puritan minister from Columbia, Connecticut, who had previously sought to establish a school to train Native Americans as Christian missionaries. Wheelock's ostensible inspiration for such an establishment resulted from his relationship with Mohegan Indian Samson Occom. Occom became an ordained minister after studying under Wheelock from 1743 to 1747, and later moved to Long Island to preach to the Montauks.[16] Wheelock founded Moor's Indian Charity School in 1755.[17] The Charity School proved somewhat successful, but additional funding was necessary to continue school's operations, and Wheelock sought the help of friends to raise money. Occom, accompanied by the Reverend Nathaniel Whitaker, traveled to England in 1766 to raise money from churches. With these funds, they established a trust to help Wheelock.[16] The head of the trust was a Methodist named William Legge, 2nd Earl of Dartmouth. The Charter of Dartmouth College on display in Baker Memorial Library. The Charter was signed on December 13, 1769, on behalf of King George III of Great Britain. Although the fund provided Wheelock ample financial support for the Charity School, Wheelock initially had trouble recruiting Indians to the institution, primarily because its location was far from tribal territories. In seeking to expand the school into a college, Wheelock relocated it to Hanover, in the Province of New Hampshire. The move from Connecticut followed a lengthy and sometimes frustrating effort to find resources and secure a charter. The Royal Governor of New Hampshire, John Wentworth, provided the land upon which Dartmouth would be built and on December 13, 1769, issued the charter in the name of King George III establishing the College. That charter created a college "for the education and instruction of Youth of the Indian Tribes in this Land in reading, writing & all parts of Learning which shall appear necessary and expedient for civilizing & christianizing Children of Pagans as well as in all liberal Arts and Sciences and also of English Youth and any others." The reference to educating Native American youth was included to connect Dartmouth to the Charity School and enable use of the Charity School's unspent trust funds. Named forWilliam Legge, 2nd Earl of Dartmouth—an important supporter of Eleazar Wheelock's earlier efforts but who, in fact, opposed creation of the College and never donated to it—Dartmouth is the nation's ninth oldest college and the last institution of higher learning established under Colonial rule. [18] The College granted its first degrees in 1771.[19] Given the limited success of the Charity School, however, Wheelock intended his new college as one primarily for whites.[16][20] Occom, disappointed with Wheelock's departure from the school's original goal of Indian Christianization, went on to form his own community of New England Indians called Brothertown Indians in New York.[16][20] The earliest known image of Dartmouth appeared in the February 1793 issue of Massachusetts Magazine. The engraving may also be the first visual proof of cricket being played in the United States.[21] In 1819, Dartmouth College was the subject of the historic Dartmouth College case, which challenged New Hampshire's 1816 attempt to amend the college's royal charter to make the school a public university. An institution called Dartmouth University occupied the college buildings and began operating in Hanover in 1817, though the college continued teaching classes in rented rooms nearby.[16] Daniel Webster, an alumnus of the class of 1801, presented the College's case to the Supreme Court, which found the amendment of Dartmouth's charter to be an illegal impairment of a contract by the state and reversed New Hampshire's takeover of the college. Webster concluded his peroration with the famous words: "It is, Sir, as I have said, a small college. And yet there are those who love it."[16] Dartmouth emerged onto the national academic stage at the turn of the 20th century. Prior to this period, the college had clung to traditional methods of instruction and was relatively poorly funded. [10] Under President William Jewett Tucker (1893–1909), Dartmouth underwent a major revitalization of facilities, faculty, and the student body, following large endowments such as the $10,000 given by Dartmouth alumnus and law professor John Ordronaux.[22] 20 new structures replaced antiquated buildings, while the student body and faculty both expanded threefold. Tucker is often credited for having "refounded Dartmouth" and bringing it into national prestige.[23] Lithograph of the President's House, Thornton Hall, Dartmouth Hall, and Wentworth Hall, circa 1834 Presidents Ernest Fox Nichols (1909–16) and Ernest Martin Hopkins (1916–45) continued Tucker's trend of modernization, further improving campus facilities and introducing selective admissions in the 1920s.[10] John Sloan Dickey, serving as president from 1945 until 1970, strongly emphasized the liberal arts, particularly public policy and international relations.[10][24] During World War II, Dartmouth was one of 131 colleges and universities nationally that took part in the V-12 Navy College Training Program which offered students a path to a navy commission.[25] In 1970, longtime professor of mathematics and computer science John George Kemeny became president of Dartmouth.[26] Kemeny oversaw several major changes at the college. Dartmouth, previously serving as a men's institution, began admitting women as full-time students and undergraduate degree candidates in 1972 amid much controversy.[27] At about the same time, the college adopted its "Dartmouth Plan" of academic scheduling, permitting the student body to increase in size within the existing facilities.[26] In 1988, Dartmouth's alma mater song's lyrics changed from "Men of Dartmouth" to "Dear old Dartmouth".[28] During the 1990s, the college saw a major academic overhaul under President James O. Freedman and a controversial (and ultimately unsuccessful) 1999 initiative to encourage the school's single-sex Greek houses to go coed.[10][29] The first decade of the 21st century saw the commencement of the $1.3 billion Campaign for the Dartmouth Experience, the largest capital fundraising campaign in the college's history, which surpassed $1 billion in 2008.[30][31] The mid- and late first decade of the 21st century have also seen extensive campus construction, with the erection of two new housing complexes, full renovation of two dormitories, and a forthcoming dining hall, life sciences center, and visual arts center.[32] In 2004, Booz Allen Hamilton selected Dartmouth College as a model of institutional endurance "whose record of endurance has had implications and benefits for all American organizations, both academic and commercial," citing Trustees of Dartmouth College v.

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.

  • Learning from the Jeffrey Epstein Mess: It’S Time to Add a Cause of Action for Damages to the Crime Victims’ Rights Act
    Learning from the Jeffrey Epstein Mess: It’s Time to Add a Cause of Action for Damages to the Crime Victims’ Rights Act By Tung Yin INTRODUCTION During the early 2000s, a wealthy financier named Jeffrey Epstein allegedly “assembl[ed] a large, cult-like network of underage girls . to coerce into having sex acts behind the walls of his opulent waterfront mansion as often as three times a day.”1 Local law enforcement officers began investigating Epstein in 2005 after receiving one complaint about molestation of a female teenager.2 As police attention focused on Epstein, more accusers came forward, and a horrifying picture emerged: “From between about 1999 and 2007, Jeffrey Epstein sexually abused more than 30 minor girls . at his mansion in Palm Beach, Florida, and elsewhere in the United States and overseas.”3 Initially it appeared as if Epstein would soon face justice. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents began investigating him for child prostitution in mid-2006.4 That fall, FBI agents interviewed “potential witnesses and victims from Florida, New York and New Mexico.”5 By the following summer, the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida had drafted a 53-page indictment against Epstein for grand jury presentment.6 Over the next few months, federal prosecutors and Epstein’s lawyers discussed a potential plea agreement, with United States Attorney Alex Professor of Law, Lewis & Clark Law School. Thanks to Paul Cassell, Meg Garvin, Jay Krishnan, and Amy Liu for helpful comments and insights, and Alex Jones (L&C ‘21) for outstanding research assistance.
