Shiver Me Timbers!
A highlight reel of my Winter Carnival weekend!
- No. 1
Opening Celebration
Dartmouth’s Winter Carnival is organized by the Collis Center for Student Engagement, and they do a fabulous job. This year the carnival had a pirate theme, and the tagline was “Shiver Me Timbers!” The opening ceremony took place in Collis Common Ground, and the atmosphere created by the lighting and decorations was amazing. They decked out Collis by hanging sails, nets, flags, rope—everything to make the building feel pirate-y and epic! The opening ceremony had lots of pirate-themed food and snacks, a photo booth, and performances by 4 of Dartmouth’s 8 a cappella groups and two Dartmouth dance troupes. It was a spectacular start to an incredible weekend!

Special Poster Printing
The Library Book Arts Workshop hosted an event where students could come and make their own special edition version of the Winter Carnival poster! I went, and I’m super happy with how my poster came out!

Cookies, Cocoa, and a Polar Bear Swim
The Polar Bear swim presents an opportunity for students to jump into Dartmouth’s Occom Pond, brave the ice, and swim a brief length to the other side. More intimidated than intrigued, I did not participate—but hundreds of students do! Instead, a friend and I grabbed Cookies and Cocoa from the Roth Center for Jewish Life, and spectated the event. Though I’ll admit, watching did make me more inclined to participate… what can I say, Dartmouth students have an utterly infectious inclination towards adventure.
