- House Professor’s Teas
We had a great HP Tea this past Friday with our panel on med school and the medical profession, organized by Resident Fellow Sophie Leung. Thanks to Sophie for organizing, and to all our distinguished panelists for a very valuable discussion!
Our final House Professor’s Tea of the term will be this FRIDAY, March 3 at 4:30pm with Prof. Vicky May of the Thayer School of Engineering.
Prof. May is a Professor in the Thayer School of Engineering and an affiliate of West House. Her research includes studies of engineering education and seismic engineering.

- COMMUNITY DINNER / WINE & CHEESE RECEPTION NEXT SUNDAY, MARCH 5
Our next West House Community Dinner will be on Sunday, March 5 in the Fahey Lounge. We’ll once again begin with a wine & cheese reception at 5pm (with soft drinks, as well as beer, wine, and cider available for 21+), followed by a catered dinner as usual starting at 6pm.
For faculty and staff with families, as usual we’ll have some babysitters lined up so please bring the kids (parents please email me ASAP at Ryan.C.Hickox@dartmouth.edu if you’re interested in taking advantage of babysitting).
- WESTHOUSE COFFEE, MUGS, AND APPAREL
A reminder that the West House Office on the first floor of Fahey now has its own Keurig coffee machine. If you’d like to get some (free) coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or cider (or to pick up a House travel mug) just come by the office. Be sure to stop in and say hi to Pamela or Darby! We also will have some new West House apparel that will be available soon – watch this space!
