go to each the league’s athletic directors, policy committee and university presidents for approval before the policy goes into affect. Implementation potentially may begin by the 2016 preseason, Dartmouth football coach Buddy Teevens ’79 said.
The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education has changed Dartmouth’s speech code rating from “green light” to “yellow light” in November. The nonpartisan organization believes the College’s bias reporting policies could be used to suppress free speech, FIRE policy research director Samantha Harris said. FIRE’s goal is to protect the free speech and due process rights of students and faculty members on college campuses through educational outreach, individual case resolution and a speech code database, Harris said. Before Dartmouth’s FIRE rating changed in November 2015, Dartmouth had been rated as green light school since 2005. Before 2005, Dartmouth was considered a “red light” school when Zeta Psi fraternity was derecognized for disseminating an internal newsletter that personally insulted a number of female students. FIRE deemed then-College President Jim Wright’s statements supporting the derecognition an effective
“speech code” for “elevating ‘feelings’ over free expression.” A green light rating means a school does not have speech codes that restrict protected speech, Harris said. red light means an institution has at least one policy that FIRE believes both clearly and substantially restricts free speech, she said. A yellow light rating could refer to policies that restrict narrower categories of speech or are vague enough to be vulnerable to abuse, she said. “A ban on offensive speech campus-wide would get a red light, whereas a ban on speech like posters in residence halls, for example, would get the yellow light because the amount of speech affected is much less,” she said. Dartmouth’s bias reporting policies fall under the yellow light category because of its broad language, Harris said. The College defines a biasrelated incident as “behavior which constitutes an expression of hostility against the person or property of another” over an

The Upper Valley Aquatic Center will begin $3 million in renovations this summer, adding 8,000 square feet for a larger locker room, group exercise studio and physical therapy center. The additions will also feature natural light, open views and a fitness mezzanine that overlooks the fitness floor. Groups from Dartmouth, including the men’s and women’s swim teams, men’s and women’s club water polo teams, Greek organizations
and Dartmouth Center for Service organizations use the center for various activities. Many Dartmouth students also utilize the pool and other facilities such as the fitness center, executive director of UVAC Richard Synnott said. The expansion is due to the growth of the center’s membership base, increased day pass use from the community and an increase in the number of families using the center. Synnott said that the additions, which will also include a daycare center,
are geared towards single parents attending the facility with young children. There are also about 120 student memberships at the center, including Dartmouth students, Synnott said. “When we have a big swim meet, the locker rooms are too small to accommodate students who are part of the swim meet and our regular members who are attending the rest of the regular facility,” Synnott said. “The new locker rooms are going to add a third more space than the locker rooms now, if not double.”
Logan Briggs ’16, captain of the men’s swim team, said that while the team does not practice at the center, they hold the large, twoday Dartmouth Invitational swim meet at the center’s facilities. During the meet, the swim team has not felt the need for larger locker rooms, Briggs said. “The guys’ locker room had [both] a men’s and boys’ side,” Briggs said. “There was quite a bit of space for people to use, and we didn’t notice any issues. Other facilities, from my experience, are more crowded than
UVAC.” While the annual swim meet, which takes place in January, is an important event for the swim team, the team may no longer host the event starting next year due to insufficient funding, Briggs said. Caitlin Flint ’16, captain of the women’s water polo team, said that the plans for the renovations has not affected the team’s practices at UVAC, which take place once a week. SEE UVAC PAGE 3

DAILY DEBRIEFING Over the weekend, over a quarter-million college-bound high schoolers took a new version of the SAT, The Chronicle of Higher Education reported. The revamped standardized test was developed to be fairer and more straightforward. Kaplan Test Prep conducted a survey of over 500 test takers and reported that 59 percent said the questions on the new SAT were straightforward and easy to follow, while 58 percent said that the length of the test’s new sections were tiring. Sixteen percent of respondents indicated that the test definitely reflected what they learned in high schools, while 56 percent somewhat agreed and 23 percent disagreed. The College Board also surveyed over 8,000 test takers, and reported that the majority of students preferred the new test, with three quarters saying the test reflects what they are learning in school. Cornell University president Elizabeth Garrett died on Sunday night from colon cancer, at 52, the Cornell Chronicle reported. The chairman of the Cornell’s Board of Trustees announced Garrett’s passing in a message to campus yesterday morning. Garrett began her tenure in July 2015 as the university’s first female president, and is also the first Cornell president to die while in office. She first shared her cancer diagnosis with Cornell in an email statement on Feb. 8., and named Provost Michael Kotlinkoff as acting president on Feb. 19. At Gustavus Adolphus College, a 500-word essay can be a penalty for students accused of sexual assault, Inside Higher Education reported. Last week, students at the Evangelical Lutheran Church-affiliated, Minnesota-based college protested this punishment, specifically because a student found responsible of rape’s primary punishment was to write a 500-word essay about consent. While the accused student was suspended beginning January, he successfully appealed his suspension and his penalty was reduced. In addition to writing an essay, the accused also has to work with a mentor and is banned from participating in some campus activities. In response, petitions created by both alumni and students of Gustavus Adolphus College call for the institution to adopt a mandatory punishment of expulsion for rape and a minimum sanction of one semester suspension for other forms of sexual misconduct. - COMPILED BY SARA MCGAHAN

New policy addresses concussions FROM FOOTBALL PAGE 1
coupled with a decline in concussive head injuries and injuries in general. Teevens proposed moving to eliminate live tackling from the regular season at the Ivy League coaches’ meeting, a suggestion he said took only five minutes of discussion before a unanimous decision was reached. Last year, Thayer School of Engineering students Elliot Kastner ’13 and Quinn Connell ’13 unveiled the Mobile Virtual Player. The Big Green has used the robotic dummy in practice since August. The Ivy League’s decision creates a good forum for introducing the MVP on a larger scale, Connell said. “As the MVP is a tool that’s designed to mitigate the risk that players are facing, our interests and goals are aligned with the same ones that prompted this decision,” Connell said. Both Kastner and Connell said that they have expanded their product to other high-contact sports including rugby, lacrosse and hockey. Kastner, a former Dartmouth football player, said that the shift away from live tackling will allow other schools to imitate Teevens’ form-oriented coaching methodology. “More and more we start to recognize that every player is valuable,” Kastner said. “We want every player to have a safe career and have a safe and fulfilling life after.” Connell, who played rugby at Dartmouth, said that in the past, changes to protect players have been incremental but have been gaining more traction with the introduction of more rules. Teevens said the MVP differs from the other objects that players tackle as it provides them with a moving target. “You can use it at any position, you can hit it two, three hundred times a day and it just bounces,” he said. “It never gets hurt, it never sprains its ankle, never gets a concussion.” Teevens said that not only does tackling the MVP produce the same results as live tackling, but it also allows the players to hit with a plan. Other Ivy League teams, including Harvard University’s and Columbia University’s, will continue to allow live tackling and scrimmaging in spring football and in preseason, according to both teams’ coaches. “I think conferences as a group could [eliminate tackling], I don’t think coaches individually could,” Teevens said. “The pressure to win at the higher level is so great that if you did it and you didn’t have success, you would be unemployed.”
He added that this type of initiative is crucial to the continuation of the sport. “If we don’t change the way we coach the game, we won’t have a game to coach,” he said. Teevens said that a reduction in live contact signifies a reduction in concussive head injuries, something he hopes will spread to other college programs and eventually high schools. Teevens said that, currently, the Dartmouth football team tackles many inanimate objects like the MVP to develop the skillset, which they can use in a real game. “We do tackle, we just don’t tackle each other,” he said. “The truth is, my guys will tackle 10 times per year, 40 times during their career, on game day and that’s it.” Teevens said that there is a lot of antiquated thinking in the coaching profession, but now the game has changed in terms of technology, size, speed, strength, nutrition and diagnostic capabilities. It is important to keep up with these other changing factors, he said. Winning the Ivy League Championship this year is evidence that Dartmouth’s training regimen has not hurt the team’s performance, Teevens said. Harvard football coach Tim Murphy said the obvious motivation in the decision was to “find as many ways as possible to mitigate the safety risks in football.” Murphy said that the new rule will not necessarily present a big transition for Harvard’s football
team, as for the past 15 years they have not been live tackling or scrimmaging during the season. “This seems like sort of a precedent-setting situation, which it is, in terms of a league making a decision unilaterally to really be proactive about player safety,” Murphy said. “However, for a lot of us, this is something we’ve done for a long, long time.” Murphy said that it is good for the public to understand that their foremost priority is the health and welfare of athletes. “The future has never been brighter for football,” Murphy said. “In terms of the culture, rules, practice regimens and overall sports medicine it’s a much safer game now.” Columbia football coach Al Bagnoli said coaches gave a lot of thought to this unanimous decision, which came from a desire to improve the game by making it safer. Bagnoli said that he hopes that the decision will serve as a template for other schools to follow. He does not expect Columbia football practices to change significantly, but anticipates a number of small adjustments. Both Murphy and Bagnoli said that their teams might begin using the MVP as well. Murphy said that the prototype is “very impressive” and has a lot of potential. Bagnoli said the robot is “pretty intriguing” and is a “forwardthinking way to go about practicing your craft.”

FIRE rating changed based on College’s bias incident reports FROM FIRE PAGE 1
aspect of a person’s identity, such as gender, race, sexual orientation and disability, according to the Office of Pluralism and Leadership’s website. “An ‘expression of hostility’ could mean almost anything,” Harris said. “What one defines as hostile is very subjective. Some expressions of hostility might actually involve threats or harassment, but some might just be unpleasant or offensive remarks that, while undesirable, are not something that the university should officially be investigating or punishing.” Harris said that to regain a green light rating, at a minimum the College would need to state in the bias incident policy that students will not be disciplined under the policy and the information will be used for reporting and statistical purposes only. “If the College wants to simply try to collect information on these kinds of incidents so they can respond with more speech or educational programming or things like that, they’re within their right to do so,” she said. “There’s nothing wrong necessarily with a policy like this as long as it’s absolutely clear to students that they’re not going to
be disciplined simply for saying something that someone else finds offensive or hostile.” Harris said that more generally, she is concerned about a campus culture where the administration encourages students to report on one another’s speech, In an email statement, college spokesperson Diana Lawrence cited Dartmouth’s statement on freedom of expression and dissent, which states that the College “prizes and defends the right of free speech.” Assistant dean and director of case management Kristi Clemens said the College’s bias incident reporting system was initially created in January 2013 as a “climate check” — a way to get a pulse on what was happening on campus after hours. “Students were feeling like they only had formal reporting mechanisms,” she said. “They could report to Safety and Security, they could report to Judicial Affairs, but we know that microaggressions happen all the time.” Reports go to the entire bias incident reporting team, which includes Safety and Security, Judicial Affairs, OPAL, the dean on call and Clemens. When a report comes in, it goes through “triage” and is directed to the appropriate
department based on severity and immediacy, Clemens said. Every report receives a response, Clemens said, and she will often reach out to all parties involved in the incident to facilitate conversation and some sort of resolution. OPAL’s website notes that “biasrelated incidents, while abhorrent and intolerable, do not meet the necessary elements required to prove a crime.” Clemens said most reports do not result in judicial affairs action — out of about 20 individual incidents reported each term, about one or two result in an investigation. At times, the team receives multiple reports about singular incidents, such as the Blackout demonstration this past fall, she said. In November, students marched through Baker-Berry Library following a demonstration meant to show solidarity with black communities at Yale University and the University of Missouri. The protest sparked controversy, as allegations of physical assault emerged on social media outlets, including the anonymous messaging app Yik Yak. Several students filed bias incident reports with the College, though no official complaints of physical violence were made to the College at the time.
“We know that Dartmouth’s speech code is pretty liberal, and so some things are not able to be followed up judicially, but we do think that in our community it’s important to address speech that’s harmful, hateful and inappropriate to build a stronger Dartmouth community,” she said. Harris said that FIRE first became aware of Dartmouth’s bias reporting policies in 2013 through media coverage of a racial harassment incident that occurred in the Class of 1953 Commons in January 2013. Two students reported that another person walked by them during lunchtime in ’53 Commons and verbally harassed them in what was thought to be mock Chinese. The organization was concerned that Dartmouth was considering disciplinary action on the basis of its bias incident policy, so FIRE reached out to express its concerns, Harris said. “We received a response saying the student was not being punished, but Dartmouth never addressed our broader concerns about the policy itself,” she said. FIRE wrote to Dartmouth again in 2015 after it was clear the policy would not be changed, Harris said. “When Dartmouth stood by the policy, we decided we could no longer in good conscience call it a ‘green light’ school,” she said. Clemens said her office does not work directly with FIRE and there are no current plans for modifying the bias reporting policy. “We’re going to do what’s best, we think, for our students and engaging them in dialogue and creating a safe space for all students,” she said. “I don’t think that our process does
anything that infringes on students’ rights. I think having developmental conversations with students is the point of my role and any student support staff member here on campus, and I don’t see us changing that process.” Ulysses Smith, Title IX coordinator at Cornell University, wrote in an email that Cornell considers bias to be an “umbrella term” that includes acts of harassment and discrimination, though not all incidents reach the threshold for those offenses. Cornell’s bias assessment and review team is not an investigatory or disciplinary body, though if an incident does violate a university policy, it is referred to the office of the Judicial Administrator, Smith said. FIRE also rates Cornell’s bias policy as yellow light as well. Smith said he is not aware of any instances when FIRE reached out to Cornell. University of Oregon bias response team coordinator Maure Smith-Benanti said her team is “purely educational in nature” and deals with incidents that do not violate the law or the university’s code of conduct. Reporters have the option to submit a report solely for information, which means it will be included as statistical data in an annual report, or for action, she said. If a reporter requests action, the team can facilitate a conversation between parties involved to help resolve the issue, she said. FIRE rates University of Oregon’s bias response team policy as green light, though the school overall is considered to be red light. “We try to encourage our students that the best response to free speech that we find offensive is more speech,” Smith-Benanti said.

On the Right Side of History
Inclusivity in the DOC
I divested to leave a better world for our children.
I just divested myself of any stock I owned in companies which produce or burn fossil fuels. I thought it might be useful to share with the Dartmouth community how I came to that decision. You would think that an ’81 who bought his first position not long after graduating, then went to Harvard Business School and forged a business career would never ditch the attractive yields in the oil and energy sectors. It has a lot to do with becoming a the parent of a ’14 and thinking ahead to the day when I could become a grandparent of a ’34. I once heard David Attenborough, an eminent BBC naturalist whose soft, measured voice is associated with the natural world, say, “I never want my grandchildren to say, ‘but grandpapa you knew…’” He was speaking in St. Paul’s Cathedral in London at a climate change event. My own journey started in Dartmouth Hall on the right side of the lecture hall in the basement about five rows back. I was listening to a lecture by Donella Meadows of “The Limits to Growth” (1972) fame. Donella Meadows and her husband Dennis Meadows’ insights into the carrying capacity of the planet were maligned at the time, but today they seem pressing. What I remember more was my response, not intellectual or academic, but emotional. I heard something compelling, something that stirred me as a student on the threshold of the world. Many years later I was a guest at the consulting firm the Meadows started in White River Junction when I was a senior partner at one of the world’s largest environmental engineering firms. I had launched their climate change division. I had travelled the world for 30 years and ended up where I began: in the Upper Valley listening to the Meadows’ point of view. I talked with many of the world’s largest mining and energy companies about climate change in that role. I presented to a large internal executive audience at what may be the world’s dirtiest utility company, Eskom in South Africa. It was all science and impacts and carbon prices and protecting assets from weather and water. We looked at the impacts of carbon dioxide parts per million in the atmosphere of 350. Activist and Vermonter, Bill McKibben, launched a group called 350. org to draw attention to “safe” CO2 levels. But
we just surpassed 400 PPM. The Grantham Institute- Climate Change and Environment at Imperial College London has one message from their professors’ research: climate change is accelerating. You will understand that I was a proud ’81 when my daughter Morgan Curtis ’14 won the Sustainability Award as a Dartmouth student for her contribution to environmental awareness on campus. You probably would not be surprised that she is focused on the front end of climate action and was active with Divest Dartmouth as a student. She is quick to point out that Dartmouth and other academic institutions contributed to the end of apartheid in South Africa by divesting from firms in their endowment funds with business in South Africa. But sometimes change starts closer to home— with Dad. I was very interested in understanding Harvard Heat Week, an event to raise climate action and divestment issues in their community that my daughter attended in April 2014. Watching the video coverage from the New England church in Cambridge, the same church where my wife and I met with a minister before getting married, I had the same emotional response I had in Dartmouth Hall all those years ago. The message was basic: the climate is changing, we have to change for the sake of future generations. No more science and impacts and assets, rather a social movement, a new paradigm. I wrote to my alumni councillor and suggested that we did not want to be beaten by Harvard at anything whether that be in football, innovation or in taking an ethical stance. I felt a responsibility, a duty to be on the right side of this issue. I called my broker the next day and triggered the sell orders to become fossil free. I also sent my 2014 Dartmouth donation to the Multi-School Fossil Free Divestment Fund. Dartmouth will get my donation if the endowment is out of fossil fuel stocks by the end of 2017 — the date after which the International Energy Agency has said we can have no new fossil fuel infrastructure if we wish to stay under two degrees celsius of warming. For my sake, and for my ’14, and for the well-being of a potential ’34 I hope Dartmouth gets that donation. At least I can tell the ’34’s that I will know that I divested.

The DOC needs to change but it’s heading in the right direction. For many students at Dartmouth, the Dartmouth Outing Club comprises a warm, welcoming and utterly inclusive community. In addition to providing a valid alternative and/or supplement to Greek life and offering a haven to passionate outdoorsmen and women, the DOC supplies all necessary and otherwise expensive equipment to involved students and has been ramping up its efforts to widen the availability of financial aid for all trips. As well as being the oldest collegiate outing DOC in the nation, the DOC is often praised for its extensive student membership — over a quarter of students are members. There has been a dialogue addressing issues of diversity and inclusivity within the DOC for years, and such dialogue oftentimes occurred in the DOC far before appearing elsewhere on campus. But, to simply laud the inclusive aspects of the DOC is to perpetuate the stark reality of culturally embedded exclusion that exists in the DOC’s shadows. Despite efforts — rooted in dialogue and removing economic obstacles — to change, the DOC primarily consists of white, upper middle class students. The factors maintaining this reality are complex, and many of them are the ones lending themselves to a similar reality in most outdoor adventure institutions in this country: historical erasure of minority heroes in outdoor spaces, incomplete discourse about current participants in outdoor activities and a general perpetuated and pernicious belief that “Black/Hispanic/ Asian communities don’t do that stuff.” Yet allowing this national reality to be continued at Dartmouth without questioning it, allowing complacency, is unacceptable. Dartmouth is exceptional, Dartmouth students are exceptional, and there is no reason that Dartmouth DOCs and institutions should not be held to the same standard of exceptionality. Don’t get me wrong — I do not think the DOC stands out on campus as being particularly exclusive. On the contrary, I think for specific students it stands out as being particularly inclusive. Its rich history of attempting change cannot be overlooked, nor can its propensity for reaching out. However, the limited success thus far in creating positive change warrants new introspection and a new approach, a mandate that, as shown by the publication of this op-ed, the DOC now realizes. This past term, I’ve talked to many minority students who came to Dartmouth passionate about the outdoors, but, upon trying to get involved with the DOC, ran into very real and stark barriers that are rooted in culture and ignorance. Such barriers that are oftentimes impossible to see from within the space they contain; but, for outsiders, they are blatant and contribute to the inability to feel a sense of belonging in a particular space. As occurs in so many spaces on this campus that serve as hubs for students primarily part of “mainstream” (white, heterosexual, upper middle class) Dartmouth culture, student members of the DOC have been unable to recognize when this culture is normalized to the point
at which minority cultures are compressed and minority identities are not given room to breathe. There is no personal fault innate here — a failure to recognize is not a malicious or even an active undertaking — but once this inertial reality is recognized and brought to the forefront, a failure to change becomes insidious. With that in mind, and taking into account the immense complexity of this issue that cannot be overcome by any programming and discussion, the DOC has initiated the following actions: A decision has been made to have termly events dedicated to raising the issue of inclusivity on campus — these events will be co-sponsored, planned and organized with POC groups on campus. Conversations about normative culture and inclusivity have been initiated among the First-Year Trips directorate and among the leadership of DOC subgroups including the Ledyard Canoe Club and Cabin and Trail. We have initiated holistic research into factors and beliefs contributing to the current condition of the DOC. A serious discussion about starting a mentorship program for all new members of the DOC has begun, so that no one will enter a meeting without a familiar presence there to greet them. Planning for a new member club led by POC and/or international students has been initiated. This planning involves looking at the existing “Women in the Wilderness” club, founded in 1992 to combat the male-dominated nature of the DOC at the time. WIW leads outdoor trips of all types (water-based, climbing, hiking, etc.) open to all students, but leaders in the club must identify as women. The current thinking about the new member club is that, like WIW, it would also lead trips available to all Dartmouth students, but the leaders in this DOC will be POC and/or international students. At least five minority students who have extensive wilderness experience (mostly outside of the DOC) have expressed interest in and excitement about becoming leaders. These steps are neither holistic, nor faultless, nor sufficient. But, they create a foundation — albeit shaky — that will serve as a future foothold on the DOC’s climb toward progress. Let me make this clear. This op-ed was not easy for some established members and administrators of the DOC to read and to accept. It caused an emergency meeting that in turn created a painful conversation. But the very fact that this piece is published in today’s paper, the very reality that brings these words to your eyes, fills me with hope. Painful conversations are necessary to transform painful realities. I believe in the DOC’s ability to transform. Those highest up in this old and institutionalized outing club agreed that this piece must be read and understood. They understand the DOC’s problems. And they want them to change. They want progress. We all want progress. And because we all want progress, it will come.

Men’s hockey to play Yale FROM HOCKEY PAGE 8
Again, the Raiders appeared poised to steal away the series when Derek Freeman found the back of the net, but 59 seconds later Bligh buried a shot to tie the game once again. After four goals in just under four minutes of play, both teams failed to score on several chances until O’Brien lifted a puck past Finn in double overtime. Gaudet explained the complex emotions that go into such a back-and-forth game. “It’s nerve-wracking, but honestly, you’re prepared for both outcomes,” he said. “We want to win, we want to give everything that we have to win, but we know that the game is a bounce of the puck.” As the game wore on, the Big Green’s depth began to show more than ever. For most of the two overtimes, the Raiders relied on the same nine forwards and four defensemen, while the Big Green utilized their entire contingent of skaters. The line of Ernsting, O’Brien and Jasiek made some of the team’s biggest plays. The “JOE” line as Gaudet called it served as the team’s fourth line for the series’ first two games
and third for the rubber match. “Obie is kind of the glue on whatever line he plays on, being an older guy and just so reliable. He can play on any line we have. The plan was to get a veteran presence with those two young guys,” Gaudet said. Beyond their contributions on the score sheet, Jasiek made perhaps the biggest play of the series when he dove to make a sprawling shot block with Kruger down and out in overtime of the series opener. With Colgate in the rearview mirror, the Big Green now turns to its quarterfinals match-up with Yale. The team has been swept out of the quarters in each of the last four seasons. In program history, the Big Green are just 1-15 all-time when on the road in the ECAC Quarterfinals. History aside, the impending match-up with Yale will be a difficult one for the Big Green. The Bulldogs swept the team in the regular season and earned the second seed in the ECAC tournament, posting a 14-5-3 ECAC record. Overall, the Bulldogs have only lost six games all season long. This time around, Dartmouth will be without Bullock, Barre, and

possibly Kalk. “They’re very quick, they’re really well-coached, they have an outstanding goalie, and [Rob] O’Gara is a great defensive player,” Gaudet said. “Our kids will answer the bell.” Patterson emphasized that despite the notable absences the Big Green remains confident. “It’s never easy when you lose Jack Barre and Ryan Bullock, two very influential seniors,” he said. “Guys have been stepping up, stepping into their spots. They’re in the locker room, and they’re our biggest fans. We need them too, even when they’re hurt. We’ve got to fill that void. [Kalk and Barre] are dynamic goal-scorers. Barre is a play-maker, kind of a deception guy. Clearly he’s our leading goal-scorer, and Kalk has that deadly shot, but we’ve got a lot of kids on this team who can score. We’ve got a lot of faith in the guys we have on the ice.” The daunting showdown with Yale is no cause for despair for the undermanned Big Green. As overtime hero O’Brien said, “The best part about the playoffs is that it’s really anybody’s game.” ELIZA MCDONOUGH/THE DARTMOUTH SENIOR STAFF

Student Spotlight: Sculptor Ham Sonnenfeld ’16 By NALINI RAMANATHAN The Dartmouth Staff
A senior with a double major in engineering and studio art, F. Hambelton “Ham” Sonnenfeld ’16 has always enjoyed creating projects. In high school, Sonnenfeld was more mathematically and scientifically inclined. Although he took several art classes in high school, Sonnenfeld never considered art seriously until his junior year, when he took an accelerated open media art course instead of AP physics at the suggestion of his sculpture teacher. Now, while he is still interested in mathematics and physics, Sonnenfeld focuses more on his art. Unlike many interested in both engineering and physics, Sonnenfeld is not interested in architecture or being a traditional engineer. Instead, he sees art as a way to make more interesting projects. Sophie Sheeline ’16, who worked alongside Sonnenfeld in both studio art and engineering, sees Sonnenfeld’s interest in art reflected in his work as an engineer. “As an engineer, he’d much rather be doing a project than a problem set and loves to get his hands on things as well as sort of defining the overall vision of what he’s making,” Sheeline said. “That’s what excites him about engineering.”
At Dartmouth, Sonnenfeld has Sonnenfeld considers this piece been particularly interested in creat- to be one of his best. Although it ing three-dimensional sculptural art, was not for a class nor the focus of incorporating some of the concepts his work, it combined his sense of and methods found in technology humor and several of his interests. production. Although Sonnenfeld often uses In his drawing class, Sonnenfeld humor in his art and his titles to brought some of these technological engage his audience, he does not concepts into play. Using shapes and contradicting patterns to simulate binary logic, Sonnenfeld created a visual discussion “The presence of his on digital, polarized thought hand in all of his work processes and complexity.

recently learned in class. Much of the inspiration for his pieces, Sonnenfeld said, come more from the materials that interest him. The concepts generally arise later in his process. Fellow artist Maria Wade ’15 noted that this is a key marker of Sonnefeld’s work, as he lets the work evolve on its own. “It has really evolved, but has really remained so process-based and process-driven,” Wade said. However, Wade notes, Sonnenfeld has a very distinct style, seen both in his sculptures and in his two-dimensional works, such as “The United Artists of Dartmouth.” “The presence of his hand in all of his work allows it to sort of maintain his vision no matter what medium he’s in,” Wade said. Sonnenfeld said that this sculpture is supposed to represent a mythical beast, inhibited by the chains. The title, “Lord Rocktree,” is an homage to one of the characters in the children’s fantasy series “Redwall” written by Brian Jacques. Unlike the character, however, this sculpture is quite literally composed of both rock and tree. Sonnenfeld’s senior thesis is composed of eight pieces, all of which will contain wood from the same tree. He hopes that it will serve as a culminating experience, combining
the methods he has learned in his engineering classes with those he has learned in his art classes. Although Sonnenfeld has not figured out the particular designs yet, he said that all of these pieces will have an overarching theme that alludes to both evolution and human progress. Presenting trees as a sort of champion of evolution, he compares this slow evolution to the faster evolution of human technology, as well as his own progress in his 21 years as a human and as an artist. Outside of art, Sonnenfeld enjoys hanging out by the Connecticut River, Mink Brook and Pine Park, as he enjoys being in the wilderness and away from hectic campus life. Sonnenfeld also played on the men’s lacrosse team until his junior winter. After Dartmouth, Sonnenfeld plans to work in art as well, although he has not yet figured out the exact details. Quick Quotes: Favorite band: PARTYACROSSTHESTREET Favorite TV show: “Rick and Morty” Favorite artist: Louise Bourgeois One cool thing about you that most people don’t know? His goat helped him get into college. Sonnenfeld made a sculpture based on his pet goat as part of an art supplement for his college application.

of “The Life of Pablo,” although we might not like to admit it, is the naked display of this genius-crazy paradigm. The record, with its uncharacteristic looseness of musical style and unbelievably bold lyrics (see: the Taylor Swift “Famous” controversy), feels like a train wreck — albeit a well-crafted one — that you as the listener simply cannot look away from. Kanye’s in-laws, the Kardashians, make themselves famous in a similar fashion. Whether he knows it or not, Kanye is making a point about this paradigm in music and art. He makes us as listeners question what exactly it is about his music that appeals to us — is it the meticulous craftsmanship and its objective quality, or is it the larger-than-life personality of its performer and the anticipation that at any moment he could do or say something to cause controversy? For most people, it is probably a combination of both, but the fact that the latter comes into play is a little troubling. For me, it brings to mind the history of mental health and art. It makes me think of Daniel Johnston, a singer-songwriter with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder who is now a sort of cult hit in indie music scenes. During his career, he made

Men’s hockey moves on to ECAC Quarterfinals after OT wins By SAM STOCKTON
The Dartmouth Staff
Sunday night against Colgate University, men’s hockey head coach Bob Gaudet ’81 knew the game would come down to someone making a crucial play. Tim O’Brien ’16 made that play. In double overtime of game three of the best-of-three series against Colgate, O’Brien took a pass from linemate John Ernsting ’19 and proceeded to rifle a shot past Colgate goaltender Charlie Fin.The 4-3 win punched the Big Green’s ticket to an ECAC quarterfinals match-up with Yale University in New Haven. Finn had recently been named the ECAC’s Goalie of the Week after allowing just one goal in two games. The Big Green won games one and three, 3-2 and 4-3 respectively, of the best-of-three series with Colgate in overtime despite a number of crucial absences. Stalwart defenseman Ryan Bullock ’16 did not play at all due to a lower body injury that put him in a walking boot, and Corey Kalk ’18, who had scored five goals in his previous three games and was recently named ECAC Player of the Week, was held out due to what Gaudet called a “coach’s decision” and a “violation of team rules.” Then, in the series opener on Friday night, Jack Barre ’16 went down early in the first period and missed the remainder of the series with an upper body injury. Barre, the Big Green’s leading scorer, was recently named first-team All-Ivy League. Gaudet does not expect either Barre or Bullock to return for the quarterfinals series with Yale. As for Kalk, Gaudet was indecisive, but acknowledged the potential benefit of returning another forward to his lineup. “It’ll be my decision, and he’s a good kid,” Gaudet said. “I just have to sit down with the staff and a couple people. It would be nice to have another body.” After battling through a frustrating and injury-riddled season, captain Brad Schierhorn ’16 led the way in game one for the Big Green. After just two goals all season, the Alaska native tallied a hat trick in the series opener. “He was huge for us tonight,” Gaudet said. “He drove the net. That line [with Troy Crema ’17 and Nick Bligh ’16] played really well. He has been injured all year, and he’s kept on playing, so we don’t say much about it. He’s trying to help in any way, but
for a stretch there, he couldn’t shoot the puck. It wasn’t gonna come off his stick; it’s a good sign that he’s feeling better. I was so pleased for him. He’s a passionate guy, and he took us on his back tonight.” Schierhorn seems to live for the first round of the ECAC playoffs. At the conclusion of game one, he had registered seven goals and two assists in nine career first round games, though he was unable to identify the cause of that success. “It’s not like I’m changing my game or anything — pucks are just finding my stick at the right time,” he said. Schierhorn opened the scoring in the game’s first period with assists coming from Bligh and Crema. After a pair of Colgate goals put the Big Green down one entering the third, Schierhorn beat Finn for the second time with Crema and Bligh assisting once again. The captain completed the hat trick when a Connor Yau ’19 shot deflected straight to him, and he rifled it into a wide-open net, prompting a few hats to be thrown to the ice, along with Bullock’s walking boot. “I saw Horn right before we went for overtime, and I told him if he gets the hat trick winner, I’m throwing my boot on the ice,” Bullock said. Schierhorn emphasized the importance of a simple approach to his success on the game. “I was just moving my feet, trying to keep it simple and just do the little things right,” Schierhorn said. “The first two goals, I was just going to the net hard. The last one was just a shot that found my stick. We weren’t making any fancy plays.” In the series opener, a trend of after-the-whistle shoving and jostling emerged that would last throughout much of the series. Seemingly after every whistle, members of the two teams would find themselves engaged in some sort of altercation. “Every time we play these guys, it’s always a battle,” Schierhorn said. “Stuff goes on after the whistle. If that happens, we’ll play that game and try not to get too chippy.” James Kruger ’16 started in net for the Big Green, making 20 saves and earning the win on Friday. In a game that was reminiscent of the series opener, the Big Green took an early lead in game two on Saturday but trailed going into the final period, with the night ending in a 5-3 loss. On the team’s lone power

Dartmouth advanced to the ECAC Quarterfinals after defeating Colgate University in a best-of-three series last weekend.
play of the night, Brett Patterson ’16 redirected a puck to cut the deficit to one, and Alex Jasiek ’19 tied it minutes later. However, before the Big Green could reclaim the lead, Yau was sent to the box for interference on a questionable call. Yau tugged at an oncoming Colgate forward, who appeared to embellish the effects of Yau’s play and fell to the ice. While Gaudet did not blame the officials, he observed the difficulty of dealing with the inconsistency of different officiating crews. “Last night there were embellishment calls, and tonight there weren’t,” he said. “We were one-forone on the power play, and only had one all night long. It’s a funny game that way where the other guys get the game winner on a power play, and we only get one all night. The thing about college hockey at this time is that you have to adjust to totally different officiating from one night to the next. It’s two different guys, and they’ll see the game differently. It is what it is; they do a good job.” Patterson, who for the second night in a row found himself in the middle of several confrontations with Colgate players after the whistle, addressed the importance of toeing the line between passion and foolhardiness. “You have to ride the threshold,”
Patterson said. “We played this team twice late in the year, so there was already some animosity going into this weekend before it even started. Clearly, we’re not used to playing teams Friday, Saturday, so things carry over. Now, with a third game, you want to keep that passion up, that edge — you want to keep that hatred up towards the other team, but you’ve got to keep your emotions in check. You’ve got to stay focused on the goal, and that’s clearly winning.” After the game two loss, Gaudet pointed out that he expects a team like Colgate, which places high priority on its hockey program, to put a competitive team on the ice. “They’re a great team, as they should be,” he said. “That’s a school that’s not that dissimilar from Dartmouth College in terms of their academic credentials, but they have 18 full scholarships. They should be pretty good. At Colgate University, that’s the highest level team they have, and our kids are fighting them tooth and nail. We know what we have — we’ve got the team that can win the series. We just have to play really hard against a really good team.” Despite making 24 saves, Kruger took the loss in net. In game three of the series, Kruger was replaced by Charles Grant ’16, with Gaudet
citing a reluctance to use one goaltender three days in a row as the cause for the switch. The double overtime epic on Sunday was the perfect end to highly competitive series between the two teams. “There was a lot of emotion involved early in the series in a borderline way,” Gaudet said. “There was a lot yapping. Today, there was a mutual respect. Our kids, their kids, everyone battled really hard. No one deserved to lose that game.” Throughout the game, the Big Green showed tremendous resilience in responding quickly to a Colgate team that refused to fade. Tylor Spink opened the scoring for the Raiders just 3:35 into the game, but Carl Hesler ’18 was able to tie the game just over five minutes later on a beautiful set-up by linemate Grant Opperman ’17. After a scoreless second period, Colgate appeared to take control of the game when Tim Harrison beat Grant to give the Raiders a 2-1 lead. Not only did the Big Green surrender a goal, but Tim Shoup ’18 was assessed a penalty for crosschecking. However, just 17 seconds later, O’Brien fed Josh Hartley ’17, who rocketed a shot past Finn to tie the game on a short-handed goal. SEE HOCKEY PAGE 5
