I'm not one for the outdoors. I mean, I'm not particularly against it, but it definitely does make my choice of Dartmouth a bit more on the strange side. 

One thing you'll learn about Dartmouth is that it's a campus that's always changing. And I don't just mean the students or professors, but also the physical buildings themselves.

Part of the Dartmouth appeal is that Dartmouth is a very close-knit community. You often hear this said about the student body, but it's true about the student-faculty relationships as well.

Growing up, I never had any pets. Living in the dorms, I never thought that junior year of college would be when I had my first pet.

At Dartmouth, you have a unique opportunity to talk to really, really cool people. And, if they're not coming via official Dartmouth programming, you can invite your own speaker!

It's easy to miss the in-person parts of class like engineering builds. Luckily, my Professors have been amazing enough to ship me and the rest of my class building materials to replicate the experience

For most of my time at Dartmouth, I've been lucky enough to live on campus. Though that's all changed now that I've moved off campus to West Lebanon (or West Leb) and am now living with two graduate students.

If you clicked on this, you're probably why or how I got this monitor for free. Because usually when you hear college students talking about free stuff, they're talking about free school-branded t-shirts, lanyards, maybe a pop socket.

I never thought that my favorite part of a class would end up being its midterm. First time for everything, I suppose.

With lots of things (understandably) still closed on campus, it's nice to know that study spaces are beginning to open up again in a safe and responsible way.
