Professor Kreeft teaches philosophy at Boston College and is the renowned author of over 45 books. He sat down with The Dartmouth Review at that point to discuss the role of religion on a college campus. 3487@http://dartreview.com/ Interview 2008-10-04T16:11:12-05:00 http://dartreview.com/archives/2008/10/04/ending_the_secularist_crusade.php These days, very little remains of Wheelock’s grand religious vision. Since the retirement of President William Jewett Tucker in 1909, for whom the Tucker Foundation (devoted to morality and spirituality) was named, the religious imperative of the College has waned. 3486@http://dartreview.com/ Editorial 2008-10-04T16:09:21-05:00 http://dartreview.com/archives/2008/10/04/the_week_in_review.php Keggy Kidnapped, Kops Klueless Keggy the Keg, Dartmouth’s favorite anthropomorphic alcohol vessel, has been missing since some time this summer, according to his handlers, the Jack-O Lantern staff.

Parents long left behind, open houses and “mandatory” assemblies galore, the miasma and melodies of fraternity basements beckoning like Sirens, and new neighbors to befriend and annoy and learn from. Dartmouth’s orientation, like the College itself, presented myriad possibilities. 3480@http://dartreview.com/ On Campus 2008-10-04T15:53:38-05:00 http://dartreview.com/archives/2008/10/04/we_wont_cancel_your_subscription.php Dear Mr. Herlihy: Sorry.

Both of my parents were Catholics, my mother remaining loyal to the Church, but my father (Dartmouth ’21), though he went to a Catholic prep school, thought the whole thing was a lot of nonsense. 3477@http://dartreview.com/ On Campus 2008-10-04T15:37:47-05:00 http://dartreview.com/archives/2008/10/04/the_last_word.php I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. —C.

Why not? It takes experience, more than anything, to learn how to navigate the seas of college. That’s what college is, after all. Adjustment. Transition. Growth. Change. 3473@http://dartreview.com/ Editorial 2008-09-22T14:37:59-05:00
