I am a Dartmouth graduate and my brother recently graduated from Dartmouth as a fraternity member. I find the article to be greatly exaggerated, not close to my experience or my brother's experience at all. Dartmouth is a wonderful school for gifted kids, I absolutely thrived there creatively and intellectually, and count many professors there as friends today. I was accepted to both Harvard and Dartmouth and chose Dartmouth because the college truly focuses on the undergraduate experience. The town is safe and a beautiful environment to learn. Though I am sure many disgusting things happen at fraternities at Dartmouth and at other top schools, our children certainly do not have to participate. It's our job to raise them to take responsibility for their behavior.
