Tour Talk

We finally took the Dartmouth tour yesterday along with perhaps a couple of dozen other "prospies" and were surprised at the short shrift given to intercollegiate athletics. While the percentage of students participating in either varsity sports or intramurals was noted, that was about the only real mention of athletics other than being told where Alumni Gym is located.

It's been a tough winter for Dartmouth teams but last night was a good one with men's hockey (5-14-0, 3-9 ECAC) knocking off Union, 3-1, women's hockey (7-11, 5-9-1) drilling Union, 8-1, and men's basketball (4-12, 0-2 Ivy League) giving a Harvard team that has received Top-25 votes all it could handle in a 62-58 loss before a raucous crowd of 1,555.
