Class of 2023
Gabriel's D-Plan
What's a D-Plan?
Leaving with (West) Lebanon: Loved You, 20W!
Even if I won't see my fellows NADs (our powerful Indigenous community), Questies (Questbridge ʻ23s represent!), and First-Generation Low-Income (FGLI) folks for a little while, you should all know that you make Dartmouth a wonderful place to be.

There's No Place Like Home...or The Hop
I don't think any place exemplifies the stereotypical college town like Hanover and our dear old Dartmouth. Of the places at Dartmouth that have the best vibes, my vote — without question — goes to The Hop.

Ice Castles, but make it Indigenous
It's almost the end of my first winter here in Hanover, but that doesn't mean my friends and I didn't hop on the opportunity to go check out some ice castles an hour and a half north of us.

Beating Cabin Fever with Basketball
Being in West House means Tuk-Tuk dinners and fun house events almost every week, but this month it also means having the opportunity to join West House's Intramural (IM) basketball team.

Concerts, Ice Sculptures, and Andrew Yang
With an action packed itinerary, temperatures below zero, and a fresh half-foot of snow on the ground, I couldn't have asked for a better way to destress in the heart of #midtermszn than Winter Carnival.

Sledding the Stress Away with My First Friends
The idea of Dartmouth's unlimited snow used to be intimidating, but the past two weeks have been full of peaceful coexistence between students and seasons like no other. Winter's here and we love it.

Going Green, not Greek; or Why Fun is Universal
I am a creature of habit animated by twenty hobbies and a continuous supply of mocha-infused espresso drinks, armed with the sleep schedule of a demigod. That being said, I've yet to step foot inside a Greek house.

Ice Skating on Occom!
If you read my blog, you know how often I'm trying to take advantage of Dartmouth's beautiful location. In the winter, Occom Pond freezes over, and Dartmouth students? We go ice skating.

Language Revitalization: Heritage Languages at Dartmouth
Growing up with a multilingual mom, I've always had a vested interest in languages. Now at Dartmouth, I can teach myself Hawaiian to fulfill the language requirement for graduation.
