The theme of this year's Homecoming issue is "Alma Mater: the Lines that Resonate." Every article and column is thematically linked to a line within the alma mater. Topics covered include experiences of recent Dartmouth alumni, the "muscles and brains" of student-athletes recovering from concussions, student perceptions of Dartmouth's identity as a college or university and more.
