At the risk of sounding like a broken record, layering is probably the single most important aspect of staying warm in cold weather. Before the cold front hit, all of my friends who lived in the Northeast warned me that if I didn’t layer properly, I would freeze into an icicle the moment I stepped outside.
Some of my best friends are members of the football team here at school! The past few weekends, they have played in two incredible games and I was lucky enough to have been present for both of them!

How Financial Aid WorksFor 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.
Areas of StudyScholars Who Teach
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."

Myron Tribus Professor of Engineering Innovation
"One of the things I learned when I started teaching Introduction to Engineering —and when I took the course myself—was that you have to fail. My mentor, Fred Hooven, used to say: 'Fail early and often' because you learn from every failure. You don't learn if you don't fail, and you're not learning if you're not guided to understand those failures."

The Eunice and Julian Cohen Professor for the Study of Ethics and Human Values, Professor of Philosophy
"Dartmouth is a place where one can be valued as a complete person. I'm able to be a teacher-scholar here and bring my whole self to the task. It's due partly to the smallness of the place and to the fact that Dartmouth is fundamentally a liberal arts college but also a major research university."

Chair of the Jewish Studies Program, Eli Black Professorship of Jewish Studies
"The Dartmouth campus exudes a far greater sense of warmth than I've experienced anywhere else. Students help one another. They crave and foster community. They're fun. I enjoy spending time with them. I have ongoing conversations in my head, thinking of things they've said and the things I want to say when next we meet. "

Associate Professor of Physics and Astronomy
"I enjoy guiding students on the path to discovery, whether it be undergrads with their first exposure to astronomy or Ph.D. students completing a thesis that makes a major contribution to the field. Dartmouth provides a unique opportunity for faculty who love working with undergraduates, but who also seek to carry out a world-class research program."

Professor of Sociology, Dean of the College
"The student experience is much more multifaceted than I ever understood as a faculty member and even as a house professor. As a social psychologist who's been interested in inequality, group interactions, well-being, and identity, I feel like I'm doing applied social psychology every day. It's a lot of fun."
