When Dartmouth Peak Performance (DP2) was initiated two years ago, then-President Jim Yong Kim stated, "We think that by bringing together the focus on our student-athletes' academic performance, athletic performance and also on personal areas like leadership and personal wellness, we can not only get them to their highest possible potential as athletes, but prepare them for life in ways that are extremely important." The program is initially focused on Dartmouth’s varsity student-athletes, but eventually the program is expected to expand to include club sport and recreational athletes. Drew will fill us in on the progress of DP2, and we’ll hear about the magical powers of chocolate milk. To learn more about DP2, visit http://www.dartmouthsports.com/.

It's an easy process and a wonderful way to give back to the college, as well as to get involved with our club. If you are interested, please contact Gabrielle at 256-1558. Gabrielle would be happy to give you some pointers, and there is also a ton of information available on the College web site (http://www.dartmouth.edu/~interviewers/interviewing/index.html).
