From the Speaker of the Union:
The Dartmouth Political Union is truly an outstanding organization, bringing together,if even for a mere hour at a time, a diverse cross section of the student body. Together, the members of the Union and their guests make possible the free exchange of ideas that has always set Dartmouth apart in our constant pursuit of the ultimate liberal arts experience.
The goal of the Union is, as it should be, to provide a forum for this free exchange of ideas. Though our organization is young, it holds great promise for the future. It is my hope that, moving forward, the Union may continue to grow and thrive.
I am always available if you have questions or concerns. Please do not hesitate to contact me. I also invite you to send me ideas for future debate resolutions or events.
Thank you,
Brice D. L. Acree, 2009
