<p>i love to ski but i'm not good enough for darmouth's ski team. if it were water skiing i'd have a good chance!</p>
<p>i have 5 friends appying ed to columbia........i took this quote from their site:</p>
<p>"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by sweat and dust and blood; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in worth causes; who at the best, knows in the end of the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat." </p>
<p>-Theodore Roosevelt</p>
<p>how do you post a decision in that format? Do you just insert the info and delete the brackets? I dont want mine to look stupid, especially if I am rejected!</p>
<p>someone please start a new thread tomorrow.. this one is already too long and no one wants to sift through this stuff for the 'official decisions' as it is labled</p>
<p>princeofhearth:</p>
<p>Delete the spaces between the brackets.</p>

<p>I believe you would be buying your merchandise from the Co-op, since I can't remember seeing much in the bookstore. I suggest none of you buy '12 jerseys until well into your freshman fall though, since they start slashing prices after the initial rush of first-year students.</p>
<p>Haha, Yeah, thanks johnleemk... I remembered the co-op after I posted.... I've been in there before... walls and walls of beautiful dartmouth stuff.. ohhhh.... but I better not think too much about what I want to buy now.... I do have a dartmouth teeshirt I bought a couple years ago stashed away in one of my drawers.... But it might not see the light of day ever again :(</p>
