Assembly Senate elected

By ALEX FREDMAN The Dartmouth

Hogarty said that while leaving Dartmouth and her coworkers will be hard, her new job at the hospital was “too good of an opportunity” for her and her family to turn down. Still, she maintained that the decision was very difficult because of the close relationship she has established with her team. In her time at the College, SEE HOGARTY PAGE 2

On Sunday, students chose classmates in their house communities to serve as grade-level representatives in the newlyformed Student Assembly Senate. Each house community elected four representatives, with one student elected per grade level. Twenty-four students were selected out of 33 candidates. In total, 794 ballots were cast. The Allen House representatives are Eric Chen ’17 , Jeff Fastow ’18, Isabelle Leonaitis ’19 and Kojo Edzie ’20. East

Wheelock House elected Blair Duncan Jr. ’17 , Josue Guerrero ’18, Mark Dominguez ’19 and Iris Wang ’20. The North Park House representatives are Foster Song ’17, Warren Schorr ’18, Matthew Giegerich ’19 and Luke Cuomo ’20. School House chose Austin Welch ’17, Jordan McDuffie ’20 and two write-in candidates for the ’18 and ’19 positions. South House elected Kush Desai ’17, John Glance ’18, Margaret Jones ’19 and Jamie J. Park ’20. The West House representatives are John R. Lewis III ’17 , Anabel Moreno-Mendez ’19, Timothy Holman ’20

MIDTERM MONDAY

Hogarty to leave College next week By EMILIA BALDWIN

HANOVER, NEW HAMPSHIRE

The Dartmouth

Late night is going mobile. Dartmouth Dining Services will debut a food truck in the next two weeks, a project initiated as part of the College’s transition to the new house community. The new DDS Food Truck will begin serving late night foods Monday

through Thursday from 10 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. as soon as DDS acquires the necessary licenses. Menu items include a variety of sliders, fries, brownies, churros and cheese fritters. In contrast to other food trucks in town, the DDS food truck will accept payments of DBA, meal swipes or credit card. Donald Reed, the associate

director of dining services, said that the truck will be a mobile kitchen intended to serve as the food hub for each of the housing communities. “The house communities planners wanted to include a food service element,” he said. “Setting this up for each of the houses would have been difficult. It was suggested that

[DDS] consider a food truck for this option.” DDS planned and developed the truck after speaking with several other colleges and universities that are currently operating food trucks on campus, such as the University of Connecticut and the University of Massachusetts. The truck will make two

stops per night, among a total of seven stops: the Fayerweathers, House Centers A and B, Andres, Fahey Hall, the River Cluster and the McLaughlin Cluster. Drew Walsh, the chef manager, will oversee the threeperson staff running the truck. Current staff of the Courtyard SEE DDS PAGE 5
