Brand New Look

The office of communications unveiled a new graphic identity system and College logos in January. “We need a consistent graphic identity crafted for the digital age, one that communicates as well on, say, letterhead as it does on Instagram,” says vice president Justin Anderson. The new identity features four main graphic elements: a typographic treatment of the Dartmouth name, a custom-made typeface, a redesigned Lone Pine symbol and an icon that combines the Lone Pine with the letter D.

Course Correction

Senior lecturer, Hanover Country Club member and former varsity golfer Charles Wheelan ’88 has been named chair of a committee to advise executive VP Rick Mills about the future of the golf course. Declining membership and regular deficits have forced the evaluation. “I would like some help as I coalesce around some type of recommendation to the president and trustees,” says Mills. Wheelan’s report is expected prior to a trustees meeting this summer.

Hanlon Undergoes Surgery

President Phil Hanlon 77 underwent a successful hip replacement procedure at Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital in Lebanon, New Hampshire, on January 16. Hanlon recovered at home before returning to his office.

Coach Departs
