Almost a year after Dartmouth College decided to abolish single-sex fraternities, the college has renewed discussion about the role of fraternities and sororities in campus life with the release of a report detailing aspects of Greek life at the college and proposing wide changes in the system.
The Board of Trustees created the Committee on the Student Life Initiative, chaired by two trustees and made up of faculty, administrators, students and alumni, to study the college’s social and residential life with an eye toward improving the sense of community.
Fraternities and sororities, which account for 43 percent of the student body and, the report concedes, much of Dartmouth’s social life, are a major subject of the committee’s recommendations.

 Wired 10.10: Unplugged U.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Each homecoming night since 1920, members of the freshman class have built a towering bonfire at the center of the green, running a lap around the pyre for every year of their graduating class (the class of 1999 did 99 laps; not to be outdone, the class of 2000 did 100).
And while the administrators of most other Ivy League colleges have long since managed to relegate fraternities and sororities to the margins of campus life, Dartmouth's two dozen Greek houses — one of which, Alpha Delta, was the inspiration for Animal House —; are still very much the arbiters of the school's party calendar.
Dartmouth students say it constantly — as a noun ("I just read your blitz"), a verb ("Just blitz me when you're ready"), and an adjective ("A paper note or a blitz note?").

Margaret Smoot, a Dartmouth junior and member of the student committee that contributed to the Student Life Initiative, criticized the lack of student input on the recommendations.
A statement from Dartmouth’s Board of Trustees issued on April 15 described the purpose of its plan as “enhancing student residential and social life.” The statement said that the plan culminated the first phase of the Student Life Initiative launched in February of last year.
However, the Trustees felt that the fraternities were having a negative impact on residential life and that student wishes were less important than the benefits the change would bring about,” said Lieber.
