PE Requirement

PE Requirement

You need three physical education credits to graduate, but sadly you repeatedly failed introductory golf so many times that Dartmouth just kicked you out in exasperation. #NARPlife

Swim Test

Swim Test

Uh oh, you've drowned while attempting to complete the swim test! You waited until senior spring to begin working on your swim test and then, oopsies, you just drowned in the pool. That's awkward. Almost $300,000 and four years down the drain – literally.

Dartmouth Seven

Dartmouth Seven

It's a little-known fact that the Dartmouth Seven is actually a graduation requirement. If Phil and Gail catch you in the midst of your coital bliss, you're screwed – but not in the figurative sense. Sorry buddy, no graduation for you.

ECON 20

ECON 20

You've failed ECON 20 – for the one-hundred seventy second time. Thus, you have been continuously incapable to finish your Economics major. It's okay, though; at least now you can't sociopathically destroy the global economy from a comfortable berth at Goldman.

The Communists

The Communists

Ah, comrade! Alas! The communists have taken over New Hampshire and all education must now be distributed evenly. As such, Dartmouth has become the People's University of the Promotion of Soviet Labor in Northern New Hampshire (PUPSLNNH for short; no, don't try to pronounce that).

Phil Hanlon's Mustache

Phil Hanlon's Mustache

The musk of former College President John Kemeny keeps Phil Hanlon's 'stache luxuriant, but it can also ensnare unwitting students, trapping them deep in the nether regions below Phil Hanlon's nose for all eternity.
