I Was Attacked and Bitten by a Dartmouth College Official

This is the craziest story you will hear this year. As promised, here is a FREE digital copy of POISONED IVY: https://www.benhartletter.com/p/poiso... The comes with a FREE subscription to my weekly SUBSTACK newsletter, which is my take on the week's news. This video is essentially the opening chapter of POISONED IVY, which chronicles the founding of the pro-freedom student newspaper I helped launch called THE DARTMOUTH VIEW. I wrote POISONED IVY in 1981-82 when I was a senior at Dartmouth College. This book was a national bestseller when it came out in 1984, and was the first book to diagnose what Elon Musk would later label as “The Woke Mind Virus," but what I called THE ETHOS back then. THE ETHOS is not just about politics; it’s all-encompassing. The Ethos is a quasi-religion that covers all aspects of life, including how you dress. You are expected to have the correct "attitudes" and "feelings" about everything. THE ETHOS is totalitarian in nature. It attempts to crush freedom of speech and thought. In 1980, a group of students at Dartmouth, including me, saw this strange phenomenon developing, this all-encompassing Ethos—which now dominates the education curricula in America, all the way down to kindergarten. In response, a small group of students, including me, in 1980 started publishing The Dartmouth Review. This book chronicles the founding of THE DARTMOUTH REVIEW . . . and Dartmouth College's relentless efforts to prevent our student paper from publishing. The Dartmouth Administration did not want a conservative-leaning student paper mailed weekly to Dartmouth alumni reporting on what was really happening at Dartmouth. CBS "Sixty Minutes" did a piece on The Dartmouth Review in the early days of the paper. And the activities of the paper were regular topics of national news coverage. THE DARTMOUTH REVIEW was a combination of NATIONAL REVIEW and the NATIONAL LAMPOON, plus investigative reporting, and focused exclusively on what was taking place on the Dartmouth College campus. Some of the most famous editors of THE DARTMOUTH REVIEW Review include Laura Ingraham, Dinesh D'Souza, and Harmeet Dhillon. Dartmouth Review cartoonist Steve Kelly went on to win a Pulitzer Prize for his political cartoons. THE DARTMOUTH REVIEW inspired the launch of upwards of 150 conservative student newspapers on campuses across America during the 1980s including THE STANFORD REVIEW, founded by Peter Thiel who co-founded PayPal with Elon Musk; and the launch of The Cornell Review by Ann Counter. The highly influential Federalist Society was an outgrowth of the conservative student newspaper movement. Surprisingly, POISONED IVY, received favorable reviews in The New York Times and most of the press at the time it came out. In fact, The Washington Post published a long feature article on me and this book for the front page of its “Style” section. POISONED IVY became a national bestseller. On CNN’s “Crossfire” show, I debated the famed nineteen-sixties radical Abbie Hoffman (who led the “Chicago Seven” at the Democratic National Convention in 1968). POISONED IVY reads like a novel; but incredibly, all events described in this book actually occurred. Reality is often much stranger than fiction, which is certainly true of the events that triggered the founding of The Dartmouth Review . . . and the cascading aftermath. This new edition's EPILOGUE (5,000 words), broken up into sections) is epic, and is almost a complete book unto itself. Be sure to follow me on X here: https://x.com/BenHart_Freedom
