Jeb Bush spoke to a crowd of students and community memebers on a local campaign stop.
A crowd of about 150 people flocked to the Hanover Inn to see Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush speak about his experience as a leader and his goals of cutting back the government, reducing the national debt and his position within the Republican Party. The majority of people in the crowd were Upper Valley residents. Bush said that Republicans must pick someone who can both
beat the Democratic candidate and lead the country. He said that his experiences as governor of Florida and his ability to make “tough decisions” and “solve problems” makes him the best candidate. He cited his time as the governor of Florida, where he cut taxes by $19 billion, created 1.3 million jobs, took on public unions and reduced government workforce by 11 percent as proof of his capability to lead the United States. In addition, he questioned SEE JEB PAGE 3
GLC bans display of Indian head in Greek houses
By ZACHARY BENJAMIN The Dartmouth Staff
On Monday night, the Greek Leadership Council passed two changes to their code of standards and greater bylaws, explicitly banning Greek houses from displaying the Dartmouth Indian head . While the council’s code of standards had previously forbidden houses from engaging
in acts of cultural appropriation, the new rule explicitly mentions displaying the Dartmouth Indian head as a violation.

FluxExpress — a new online food ordering pilot program founded by Thomas Cecil ’17 and Ian Bateman ’18 — will launch in the next ten days. Currently, the site will allow students to order online from nine restaurants. In the spring, the two hope to allow students to use DBA to purchase food from off-campus restaurants, Cecil and Bateman said. Currently, anyone with a valid Dartmouth email address will be able to place online delivery or

accountability board will be required to pay a fine, the monies of which will be given to an organization or event agreed upon by the GLC and offended party or individual. The new rules apply to organizational, public displays of the Dartmouth Indian head, Greek board of accountability chair Taylor Watson ‘16 said, not to individuals who choose to display the symbol.
The change was passed in part as a response to the display last term of a pong table stolen from Theta Delta Chi fraternity displaying the Dartmouth Indian head, Watson said. Other groups had also expressed complaints about Greek houses displaying the symbol, he said. This article will be updated as more content becomes available.
Q&A with physics professor Yorke Brown
By SAMANTHA STERN The Dartmouth Staff
Visiting associate professor Yorke Brown, who teaches two physics classes taken predominantly by pre-health students, has a different style of teaching than most other professors. Brown, who moved to Hanover in 1993, began teaching Physics 3 in the summer of 2003. The Dartmouth sat down with Brown to talk about his unique classroom methods and philosophy on education.
YB: It’s a challenge that makes you make you reconsider what you’re thinking. It makes you reconsider how you communicate. It enforces a kind of constant intellectual and personal growth. And of course that’s the same thing that I’m trying to get the students to do — is to use this opportunity that they have here for their own personal growth and not just for gathering credentials and getting themselves set up for some kind of career or four years of extended adolescence. So, that’s really the attraction.
