Springfield Unified Basketball games 5 and 6
SPRINGFIELD, Vt. – On Tuesday, April 30, the Cosmos Unified Basketball team traveled to Clarendon, Vt., to face the Mill River Minutemen. The Cosmos had a huge fight in the second half, but could not reign in the win. The Minutemen brought home the win for the night with a final score of 44-39. The Cosmos were slow to start the game in the first half. The Minutemen came off strong with a first quarter score of 20-5. In the second quarter, the Cosmos were able to outscore the Minutemen 8-6. With a slow comeback in the first half, the Cosmos started to pull it together in the third quarter, scoring 10 points to the Minutemen’s 11. Buckets from Bailey, Leon, and Bills would begin a start that led to a fourth-quarter comeback, only a few points shy of a win. The Minutemen would lead the fourth quarter by 14 points with a score of 37-23. Coaches Gultekin and Pinter-Petrillo huddled with the team to instruct them to use junior Sam Bailey. Bailey is the first person down the court on offense and defense. So, Larkin and Puffer did just that. Bailey scored 10 points, Bills chipped in four points, and Todd had two in the fast-paced fourth quarter. At one point in the fourth quarter, Springfield cut the deficit to three points.

Vahanvaty: A Group of Dartmouth Rockapellas Speaks on the May 1 Protest
As Dartmouth students and advocates for social justice, we are deeply disturbed by the recent events on our campus. On May 1, students gathered on the Green to peacefully protest Israel’s violence against Palestinians. College President Sian Leah Beilock’s administration chose to fight that peace with force, authorizing Hanover Police to take action against the protesters — which ultimately led to the presence of state troopers armed in riot gear and the arrests of 89 individuals. This response casts a shadow over the principles of free speech and student activism that we hold dear as members of the Dartmouth Rockapellas.

TTLG: Having the Final Word
I’ve always avoided saying goodbye and instead resorted to the “Irish exit.” Whether it’s slipping out of parties when it feels too awkward to alert people of my discomfort, or darting out of class to avoid an awkward conversation with a professor, I have always preferred not saying goodbye. After all, I’ll see them again, right? But with my four years at Dartmouth ending in four weeks, my point of view on saying goodbye has changed.
