UNDERGRADUATE JOURNAL

In these times of change at Dartmouth, and alumni concern over surface changes they sometimes do not understand, the educational work of the College goes on - in better and more advanced ways than ever before, in the estimation of many.

To the question of how the Alumni Magazine can portray this central business of the College is allied the question of how the students can express what the College is giving to them and what they in turn are contributing to the academic quality of the College. It was decided last year that a collection of undergraduate work, done in regular courses, should be published as a "sampler" and the first such collection, called Undergraduate Sampler, was printed as a special section of the June 1972 issue.

This is the second collection of student course work, and since the introductory sampling stage has been accomplished, the title Student Journal has now been adopted and presumably will be retained for future collections. Included this time are pieces of creative writing, both prose and poetry; critical analyses of the writings of others; papers done for math, government, and environment courses; and a photographic essay. Like the tip of an iceberg, these examples of student work, all recommended by professors, are but a fraction of the academic work of high quality being done by today's Dartmouth undergraduates.
