[edit] Expansions

I'm going to gradually work on these myself, but Dartmouth is ripe with traditions. If "streaking" is important enough to put in here, then there are many, many others which also deserve to be mentioned - official and unofficial. Things like The Circuit (drinking at every fraternity in one night), more involving specific buildings/locations (Green's got a lot of them, but also things like the Mountaineering club climbing up buildings, Bartlett Tower used to have several traditions climbing either the interior or exterior, etc), and maybe even specific events at fraternities and societies (like Phi Tau's "Milque and Cookies", Panarchy's "Great Gatsby" party, others?). Lots of past traditions have also faded or been banned - I gave some examples in the article, but there are many more. Some of the very unofficial traditions like the "Dartmouth Seven" (which used to be its own article until it was AfD'ed) could deserve at least a passing mention.

[edit] Um

Er, sorry if my change of the modifier "only" to "largely" was unwarranted in the bit under the subhead Green Key Weekend, but I believe summer term does not consist only of sophomores. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.170.204.58 (talk) 02:28, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
