The Cover

At the June 14 ceremonies officially opening the Dartmouth College Bicentennial Year, Lord and Lady Dartmouth (shown with President Dickey) were honored guests. To mark the occasion, Lord Dartmouth presented to the College the heirloom silver cup shown in the cover photo. It was made for the 4th Earl of Dartmouth in 1848. PHOTO BY ADRIAN BOUCHARD
