Dartmouth Ridiculousness

Looks like fun....

Dartmouth in the News

Dartmouth's 17th president, Dr. Jim Yong Kim, appeared on the Bill Moyers Journal tonight. Dr. Kim spoke about his life, Dartmouth, and, most importantly, health problems and challenges around the world, as a foremost expert on the issue, given his work in Partners in Health, which provides healthcare for the neediest around the world and in the United States.

Dartmouth in the News

The Dartmouth reports that Dartmouth College was ranked 11th in a U.S. News and World Report ranking. This is the list that comes out every year around this time. The college has maintained the same rank as last year in overall ranking, but takes the first spot in 'commitment to undergraduate education.'

As with all rankings, this is to be taken with a grain of salt. No grade can be representative of the overall experience of being at Dartmouth or elsewhere.

Dartmouth in the News

In a recent ranking of average salaries according to people's alma mater, Dartmouth College ranked first with a mid-career median salary of $129,000. I believe she ranked first last year, too. This is certainly good news for Dartmouth and for me. The bad news is that I'll have to wait at least ten more years (mid-career) until I reap the reported results.

That is, if I really believe the results, which I don't quite do.
