Below is a list of all blog posts from the People Places Pines blog by Dartmouth College.
Hey hey hey! I'm Sydney and I'm a '24. I'm a third-generation Chinese-American who has moved around quite a bit, attending British school while living in Spain, international school in the Philippines, and boarding school in California.

I looked back on my "Why Dartmouth" essays to relive why I (and hopefully you) fell in love with my school.

You've got questions — the bloggers have answers!
