Experience Dartmouth Virtually

Over the past year, I've talked a lot with prospective students. Picking a college is a big deal, but if I knew what I do now, I'd still pick Dartmouth a dozen times over.
I was especially excited to learn that I would have a lot of control over my academic schedule this term, and I'm here to walk you through what that looks like for me!
I have officially settled into my new dorm! Come take a peek at what residential life is like, and some opportunities that might come after the quarantine!
After a six week break, I'm back. My winterim was a fun mix of staying at home, binge-watching Survivor, celebrating the holidays, and enjoying the Southern Californian landscape, so I'm feeling refreshed to dive back into blogging!
I'm starting my second year at Dartmouth, and I'm still really quite lost. But in a good way. And even then, I'm lucky that there are people here to help me along the way.
Winterim has zoomed by and I'm so ready to begin a new term, probably filled to the brim with classes, extracurriculars, and lots and lots of skiing, but—first—I'll give a little bit of info what I did over winter break.
One of my favorite things to do as a Dartmouth student is going to all the various talks, lecture series, and events that the school holds throughout the year. Here's why!

For Dartmouth professors, teaching is a passion, a calling, a way of life. Mentorship is instinctive, one of the most rewarding aspects of their scholarship. Dartmouth faculty members are also pioneering researchers and influential thought-leaders. Their work with students helps them advance the frontier of knowledge and helps students advance their careers. Dartmouth classrooms are interactive, collaborative, discussion-based environments.
Sherman Fairchild Distinguished Professor in Digital Humanities
"Games are broadly interdisciplinary. They encompass computer science, psychology, sociology, music, art, neuroscience, and more. They're what the liberal arts are all about. We teach our students to think across disciplines. They develop their ability to attack problems, ask productive questions, and invent fresh solutions."
Assistant Professor of Religion and African and African American Studies
"I help students understand that racial identity and religious belonging have never remained unchanging in American history. To comprehend religion and race, students must account for histories of nuance, according to region, age, class, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and enslaved/free/citizenship status."
Professor of Government, and of Latin American, Latino and Caribbean Studies
"My research examines the extent to which formal institutional rules shape the possibilities for achieving gender inequality. I focus on human rights treaties, specifically the United Nations convention to Eliminate All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, gender quota laws, and the Equal Rights Amendment."
"I work at the intersection of sound and justice. By lending an ear to imperatives of care and accessibility, I engage questions about vulnerability, solidarity, and survivability of humans and humanity in late-capitalist environments. My research asks how music and musicians can help us answer these questions."
"Many years ago, architects and engineers were the same thing—master builders. The field of engineering has become increasingly specialized, especially at schools and in some companies. That has made the field more narrow and scientific. But I think science and engineering should be about discovery."
"Dialogue and conversation about the architecture brings it alive, both for me and the students. This stuff is more than just an image on a screen. Making it part of a bigger discussion about Rome, about what buildings do--that's been personally rewarding for me."
Measure glaciers in Antarctica with climate-change scientists. Perform with a renowned theater group at Kings College London. Study the Maori language in New Zealand. Arranged through Dartmouth's Frank J. Guarini Institute for International Education, these powerful learning experiences are enhanced through faculty mentorship.
