<p>OC reference</p>

<p>In the film *Wag the Dog<a href="brilliant%20film%20to%20pass%20the%20time%20if%20you're%20waiting%20on%20ED,%20by%20the%20way">/i</a>, the following conversation takes place between a White House aid and a propaganda chief:</p>

<p>BREAN: Where'd you go to school, kid, Wellesley?</p>

<p>CAIN: Dartmouth.</p>

<p>BREAN: Then show a little spunk.</p>

<p>The protagonist of John P. Marquand's Point of No Return was a Dartmouth grad.</p>

<p>I can't believe no one has said this yet..</p>

<p>Evan (Michael Cera) and Fogell (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) from Superbad are both seniors who are going to Dartmouth in the fall</p>

<p>"Seth: OMG thats a great f***in story Fogell can we hear it again (sarcastically)
Fogell: Yea... Yea Seth, me and Evan are really gonna miss your knee slappers while we're at Dartmouth
Seth: Well while you guys are over at Dartmouth ill be at state, where the girls are half as smart, and thus twice as likely to fellate me..."</p>

<p>GOSSIP GIRL:
Dan wants to go to Dartmouth and Nate's dad wants him to go too</p>

<p>In Queer as Folk...one character Justin was accepted to Dartmouth but he decided to go to the Pittsburgh Institute of Fine Arts.</p>

<p>Superbad.... =)</p>

<p>Chicka what chicka fake ID.... lol</p>

<p>There have been other threads on Dartmouth references. </p>

<p>Obviously I already pointed out that Justin turned down Dartmouth. ;)</p>

<p>Stephen Colbert pretends that he graduated from Dartmouth.
Thomas Crown of The Thomas Crown Affair.</p>

<p>On one episode of Scrubs, one character is insulting the surgeons, saying they are 'scalpal jocks' and that aren't as smart as the docs who study medicine. Then, J.D. says, that's not true, so and so went to Dartmouth! (He gestures to an extremely tall/big football player-looking guy.)</p>

<p>i guess it wasn't obvious that you did point out Justin BigGreenJen...i didn't
know that other threads on Dartmouth's references existed...and since i watch QAF and Dartmouth was mentioned....i did the same thing as you...i posted my reference</p>

<p>oh no!!! i was totally kidding! qaf is like my favoritest show ever and if you come to dartmouth and try to check it out from the library it will never be there cuz i always forget to return the discs and get massive late fees. lol no worries im glad there is another qaf fan on the dartmouth forum!</p>

<p>lol..ok..i actually heard about dartmouth through qaf..lol</p>

<p>did anyone see the office tonight? the potential client on the golf course was a D alum and they were making fun of him for it... i dont watch the show enough to know all of the specifics though</p>

<p>The guy was a Dartmouth alum, but he was portrayed favorably - in contrast to Andy, a Cornell alum, who's essentially a clown in this episode and most others. One of the writers and actors, Mindy Kaling, is a D alum.</p>

<p>ps i love saying the word "quaf"</p>

<p>haha ok, I missed the whole cornell thing... thanks for clearing it up</p>

<p>thomas crown, oxford i thought</p>
