As for me, I love Dartmouth.  I visited there this summer when I was
on vacation in New Hampshire, and loved it.  I would really love to
have an opportunity to speak there, or even better, to visit longer
term under some sort of "visiting scholar" arrangement.

And while I'm not close enough to the actual events to be able to judge
what happened here, I agree with this comment:
