You Let Your Voice Be Heard
The Dartmouth Undying website will be taking a rest for the summer. In the meantime, we welcome new supporters and we will respond to any messages sent to us. New supporters names will be added as received.
The next trustee election will be in the Spring of 2011 and nominees for two open seats will be announced by the Dartmouth Alumni Council (DAC) at their fall meeting in early December 2010. The DAC has issued this message on June 18 to all alumni regarding the open seats:
"The Dartmouth College Board of Trustees has notified the Alumni Council that two vacancies exist for alumni-nominated seats on the board of trustees.
Please send us your suggestions for alumni trustee candidates.
Your recommendations will enable the Alumni Council Nominating and Trustee Search Committee to select outstanding nominees. Voting will take place in the spring of 2011.
Please submit nominations in writing and provide information about your nominees' qualifications. Nominees must be Dartmouth alumni and should have the background, knowledge, and experience to contribute with excellence to the governance and stewardship of the College.
Please send your suggestions by November 2, 2010, to the Alumni Council Nominating and Trustee Search Committee

> AND CONGRATULATIONS TO MORT AND JOHN AND TO ALL WHO SUPPORTED THEM FOR DARTMOUTH COLLEGE THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ************************ ASSOCIATION OFFICERS ARE RE-ELECTED - April 10 At the annual meeting of the Association of Alumni in Hanover, the results of this year's election were announced. The Unity Slate led by incumbent John Mathias '69 was overwhelmingly reelected for all positions. The votes for individual offices varied slightly, but the incumbents each received approximately 14, 500 votes and the petition slate, led by Michael Murphy '61, garnered approximately 5,500 votes. Association president John Mathi
as remarks at the annual meeting are impressive and they are posted at the top of the Testimonial Page. ************************* An encouraging message from a member of the Class of 1976, received at Dartmouth Undying shortly after the election results were announced on April 10. Alumni, please take notice "I do not know the slate of petition candidates in the latest Dartmouth College Trustee election. I expect that I would like many of them on a personal basis. However, I hope that the election results are sufficient to convince the folks who were using the old loophole in the petition process to put their candidates onto the Board of Trustees and bringing law suits against the College when they lost their unfair advantage that they only represented a very vocal minority of the alumni and the alumni as a whole do not favor turning Dartmouth into a neo-conservative bastion. Too much time, money, energy, and good-will has been expended trying to defend the College from this decades long take-over attempt. Hopefully we can go back to the days of reasonable discussion about topics we disagree about without having to defend against more lawsuits and campaigns rooted in making people angry and fearful about change." In 2011 there will be another alumni trustee election to fill two open seats. Please keep these remarks, and especially the final sentence, in mind. We will.
