I’ve received a few e-mails telling me to get on the ball and post the results of the Dartmouth elections, so here goes.

Basically, last year, the Dartmouth board of trustees was made up of half alumni-elected members, and half board-elected members. Some conservatives had made their way onto the board on the alumni-elected side, and criticized the school’s policies. In response, Dartmouth approved a plan to double the number of trustees the board itself gets to appoint, while keeping the number elected by the alumni the same. The Association of Alumni sued.

In the new election, the Association of Alumni got new leaders who will stop the lawsuit.
