[quote=Anonymous]Dartmouth alum here. There is a sense from Day 1 when you arrive for orientation, and get indoctrinated into Dartmouth life at Moosilauke and around a Homecoming bonfire, that you better just LOVE the place like those who have gone before, and you better LOVE the wild and crazy parts of it. Or you are just not a true Big Green student. Alcohol is HUGE at Dartmouth. You don't have to drink, and many people don't, but the alcohol culture is pervasive. Sadly, there are many alums who have battled alcoholism in the decades since graduation and began their excessive drinking as undergrads. Some of them have written about it in the College publications.

None of my DC's applied to Dartmouth. The nail in the coffin for the last DC, who might have applied, was an email letter to alums from the College president last spring regarding the significant problems with "campus climate." You can google the events that led to the President's letter. Not much has changed over the years.
