<p>I don’t think they no longer sell Beanies…</p>

<p>Storied Dartmouth traditions stand test of time</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.thedartmouth.com/article.php?aid=2004091001020&sheadline=&sauthor=&stext=beanie[/url]”>http://www.thedartmouth.com/article.php?aid=2004091001020&sheadline=&sauthor=&stext=beanie&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>*A humiliating tradition that was ended in 1973 involves “freshmen caps,” or beanies, which upperclassmen forced freshmen to wear for the first few weeks of school.</p>

<p>In the 1950s, Dartmouth Night offered a way for freshmen to escape the annoying headgear: a tug-of-war with the sophomore class. If freshmen were victorious, they could shed the beanies. If they failed this mission – and upperclassmen usually banded together to ensure failure – the beanies had to be worn until Nov. 14.</p>

<p>In 1963, the tug-of-war turned violent when distraught freshmen, having lost the competition, burned their beanies and stormed Thayer Dining Hall.</p>

<p>As with most of Dartmouth’s original traditions, the beanie tradition gave way to more tolerant and inclusive activities that foster a sense of Dartmouth *</p>
