Dartmouth students demand end to coddling, focus on learning

HANOVER, N.H. – Alleging that Dartmouth College administrators have increasingly "assumed the role of paternalistic babysitters," students at the Ivy League institution have launched an online petition that aims to refocus the school on education and the free exchange of ideas.
The "Take Back Dartmouth" petition, penned by five student-government leaders, garnered more than 1,300 signatures in just three days.
