One More Tradition Busted


What is it about Dartmouth that it can't maintain traditions? We find out now that one more tradition is too burdensome to continue ... and that is for the President of the College to hand out diplomas at the graduation ceremony ... see: No Diplomas from Phil. In a few years time I suppose graduating seniors will watch this once joyous rite only on virtual-reality YouTube and receive a facsimile of their diplomas via e-mail?
