The following is The Dartmouth Review’s annual tribute to our departing seniors.
Michael J. Ellis
Half-man, half-machine, Mr. Ellis has been a driving force at the Review ever since his freshman fall. While not always writing on the most glamorous of topics [see TDR 10/15/02, 3/23/03, 10/8/03, 1/5/04], Ellis proved his dedication to the paper through steady, old-fashioned reporting and extraordinary endurance. Named Publisher his freshman spring, he took a leave of absence from the paper in 2004 to work in the Strategy Department of the Bush-Cheney campaign, but returned his junior year to become Editor in Chief. One of the pioneers of the “Lone Pine Revolution” (along with Mr. Glabe, below), he guided the paper through its silver anniversary with an accomplished touch. Having graduated at the end of the 2006 Winter term, Mr. Ellis now serves as an Associate Director in the White House Office of Strategic Initiatives.
Scott L. Glabe
Some would call Mr. Glabe the “idea man” behind the Review ; others would just call him lazy. But all who know him agree this campus impresario joined the Review his freshman spring, set a new Dartmouth record for miles traveled in a single term (including flying from London to San Francisco—for a weekend), and took on the oh-so-weighty duties of Executive Editor his junior spring. Mr. Glabe graduated at the conclusion of the 2006 Winter term to return to his native Missouri, where he served in the office of Gov. Matt Blunt. He now works as a regional director for the Jim Talent for Senate campaign out of Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
Thomas M. Monahan
While serving as Sports Editor for the Review, Mr. Monahan kept the paper up to date regarding the Indian exploits throughout the year. His involvement with the paper began early in his freshman year and continued throughout his college career. Thomas is a brother of Phi Delta Alpha, and was involved in the successful effort to return the fraternity to campus. A member of the College’s esteemed Rugby Football Club, Mr. Monahan is a furious monster on the pitch, and arguably the consummate scholar and gentleman otherwise. This fall he will be taking a paralegal position at Storch Amini & Munves, a Manhattan law firm.
Michael D. Stroup
Michael Stroup has been an integral member of the Review staff, contributing week pieces and covering skiing for the paper. Mr. Stroup is certainly a man of leisure and spends most of his time globetrotting and cavorting with the finest of ladies. During his time at Dartmouth, Michael spent four years on the ski team and three years passed out on the soiled concrete in the Phi Delt basement. After rehabilitating from knee surgery, Mr. Stroup will attend the United States Navy’s Officer Candidate School and hopes to accept a commission in the Navy.
