Alma Mater

Dear old Dartmouth, give a rouse
For the college on the hill!
For the Lone Pine above her,
And the loyal ones who love her,
Give a rouse, give a rouse, with a will!
For the sons of old Dartmouth,
For the daughters of Dartmouth.
Though 'round the girdled earth they roam,
Her spell on them remains;
They have the still North in their hearts,
The hill-winds in their veins,
And the granite of New Hampshire
In their muscles and their brains.
And the granite of New Hampshire
In their muscles and their brains.
Dear old Dartmouth, set a watch
Lest the old traditions fail!
Stand as sister stands by brother!
Dare a deed for the old Mother!
Greet the world, from the hills, with a hail!
For the sons of old Dartmouth,
For the daughters of Dartmouth.
Around the world they keep for her
Their old undying faith;
They have the still North in their soul,
The hill-winds in their breath,
And the granite of New Hampshire
Is made part of them till death.
And the granite of New Hampshire
Is made part of them till death.

Viva España!!

photo creds to Elizabeth Evans <-- shes amazing
One of the main reasons I attended Dartmouth was so I could see the world...and now I am. Even though I'm an engineering major I have the time to go abroad and study spanish in SPAIN. So far I've been here for three weeks and I must say...I am in love. I think I'm even more in love because it is 55 degrees, beautiful, sunny and absolutely wonderful. I speak to my friends at Dartmouth often because due to the D plan most of my friends are on campus without me. The winter in Hanover so far has been horrible. Sometimes I wish I could be at Dartmouth to experience how "Feels Like : -41" actually feels like. However being nearly 80 degrees higher than that temperature doesn't bother me at all. Culture, History, love, food, siestas, CAVA...I love spain and I love dartmouth even more for allowing me to be in spain. Stories to come :)
