Notable achievements include winning the award for best publication its inaugural year, having a host of writers (at least one, possibly as many as three) who can spell inaugural without the aid of spell check, and publishing the definitive history of beer pong. Humor and irreverance are its stylistic trademarks. The Dartmouth Independent releases new issues every week online and in print once or twice a term. The publication can be viewed at www.dartmouthindependent.com

[edit] Dartmouth Jack O'Lantern

The Dartmouth Jack O'Lantern is one of the nation's oldest collegiate humor magazines, founded in 1908. The magazine, which boasts that it is Dartmouth’s “only intentional humor magazine,” is based in Robinson Hall, and its staff has famously pulled off numerous pranks. Many celebrated writers, artists, comedians and politicians began their careers at the 'Jacko,' as it is often called, including: Theodor Geisel (who first took the name Seuss as a pseudonym so that he could continue to work on the Jack O’Lantern after he was banned from participating in college activities for violating Prohibition. After graduating, he felt his alter ego deserved a degree as well, and began signing his artwork 'Dr. Seuss'), Chris Miller (who based his short stories in National Lampoon on his undergraduate experiences at Dartmouth College, and subsequently turned them into the movie Animal House), Norman MacLean, Buck Henry, and Robert Reich. The magazine was referenced in the opening line of F. Scott Fitzgerald's short story The Lost Decade, which was first published in Esquire in 1939. The Jack O'Lantern's website is available here.
