Mario's D-Plan
What's a D-Plan?-
FallHanover, NH
Favorite Class: GERM 1: Introductory GermanGerman was absolutely one of my favorite courses Freshman Fall. German, like many other languages at Dartmouth, are taught in small, tight-knit classes that help students become comfortable practicing a language while receiving support from your fellow students. This course was incredibly interactive between students and the professor with activities ranging from role-playing buying a house to having improvised acted conversation mid-class. If you're looking for a class with a small group of people that's very interactive and fun, you should look no further than GERM 1!
WinterHanover, NH
Favorite Class: ENGS 12: Design ThinkingENGS 12 was an incredibly fun and fulfilling course during Freshman Winter. It consists on learning how the design process works when it's centered to address specific human needs. This course teaches you several new skills such as using photoshop, video editing, working with foamcore, sewing, and more. It's such a fun course to make new friends through group projects, learn new skills, and a adopt a new mindset for analyzing your ideas. Specially, it provides you with the tools to bring your craziest ideas to life!

My Revised "Why Dartmouth"
After spending nearly an entire school year at Dartmouth, I want to revisit my "Why Dartmouth" supplemental essay. I want to explore all the new reasons why Dartmouth has become a place I can call home.
Transportation at Dartmouth
In today's blog, I want to discuss transportation options to/from and around Dartmouth's campus. Even though Dartmouth is known as "the college in the woods," that doesn't mean students don't have access to ample transportation options!
