Project Overview
As part of the uAcademy for Conscious Social Change1, ICallista Womack 13' along with Victoria
Townsend ’14', developed a venture focused on increasing support for pregnant and/or parenting
undergraduate Students at Dartmouth College. Our Their vision statement read:
“We hope for institutional and communal support from Dartmouth College for undergraduate parents,
whether they arrive here with children or choose to have children after joining our community.
Undergraduate parents will have a support group of other young parents; guaranteed family housing
through the Undergraduate Housing Office; access to health services at Dick’s House and, when necessary,
support in seeking health services off-campus; a clean, safe play space to share with other community
families; and, above all else, the ability to pursue an undergraduate degree from Dartmouth College without
undue pressure to choose parenthood over academics.”
In October of 2012 I Callista reached out to the Director of the CGSE for guidance on theour project and,
after meeting to discuss specifics, was invited to work on the project in the context of revitalizing the
outdated Pregnancy and Parenting Resources Clearinghouse.
Over Winter term of 2013, I Callista contacted various campus offices and researched resources available
at and beyond the College. The information in this review reflects the state of pregnancy and parenting
resources available to undergraduate students at Dartmouth College as of Winter 2013.
It is my the hope of the project organizers that the College will expand its resources and update its
infrastructure in order to increase the feasibility of pursuing an undergraduate degree while pregnant
and/or parenting.
Pregnancy and Parenting Lending Library
Current Holdings
Before the static online listing was removed, I it is noted that the most recent book listed is from 1992 and
the mode publishing year is ’91/’92. It might be worthwhile to add more recent books to the collection.
It is also noted that some books in the collection seemed to contradict the CGSE’s mission of fostering
respect, understanding, and exploration of diverse individual and cultural identities. It is recommended
that each item in the collection be reviewed before the new online listing goes live and, where
appropriate, certain books be removed.
An idea for updating the collection is to encourage graduating seniors to donate books in honor of their
parent(s) or guardian(s).

“The uAcademy for Conscious Change is an experiential education program designed and delivered by Global Grassroots, a local non‐profit
which operates a social venture incubator for women survivors of war in central Africa[, in cooperation with the Dickey Center for International
Understanding and the Rockefeller Center for Public Policy]. The uAcademy provides [an] opportunity for Dartmouth juniors and seniors to
develop the skills to advance social change via a transformational paradigm from idea conception through implementation. The program
incorporates three components: conscious leadership practices, social entrepreneurship tools, and conscious change methodologies.” Adapted
from the uAcademy PILOT promo flyer distributed during Fall 2012.

Catalogue Recommendation
It is recommended that the new listing of books involve a way to search by not only title and author, but
also topic. Ideally, it should be possible to know whether a book is available or not through the online
interface.
Dartmouth College Library Resources
The Dartmouth library system has 1,237 hits for the term “pregnancy,” 545 for “parenting,” 239 for
“fatherhood,” 136 for “motherhood,” 85 for “giving birth,” 57 for “childbirth,” and 9 for “doula,” many
of which are relevant (that is, not strictly academic). Students seeking information should absolutely be
advised to take advantage of Dartmouth’s library holdings and journal subscriptions as well as those
available through Borrow Direct2.
Campus Accessibility
Child Care Project at Dartmouth College
CCP staff advise parents about choosing childcare, best practices, and state regulations, and offer referrals
to childcare providers. These services are provided for free.

start of each plan year and a new dependent application3 needs to be submitted each plan year, dependent
re-enrollment is not automatic.
Fees for 2012-2013
Student only: $2,006
Additional fee for
One dependent: $3,402
Two or more dependents: $4,861
The cost of the plan for dependent coverage is in addition to the cost of the plan for student
coverage. Spouses and domestic partners enrolled in the plan are subject to an annual spouse/domestic
partner health access fee of $225.
Dick’s House
The Women's Health Program provides services that encompass gynecologic annual examinations, breast
concerns and exams, contraception counseling and prescription, as well as medical evaluation,
treatment and prescription for menstrual irregularities, urinary tract infections, sexually transmitted
infections, emergency contraception, pregnancy and other women's health concerns. They refer to
Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center for gynecologic diagnostic procedures and specialists when
necessary, including gynecologic surgeons, reproductive endocrinologists, and obstetrical teams including
nurse midwives.
Strict confidentiality is maintained at all times with regard to patients’ medical records. No one outside of
the Health Service has access to a patient’s medical records without the patient’s written permission,
except when needed in serious emergencies or as required by Federal and State laws.

Financial Aid
From the 2011-2012 Dartmouth College Financial Aid Handbook4:
“If you enter Dartmouth as a dependent student, it is expected that this status will not change and that your
need for Dartmouth scholarship will be evaluated as a dependent student until you graduate. Meeting the
federal independent student definition does not change Dartmouth standards for institutional scholarship
eligibility. Only in rare cases where there are extreme extenuating circumstances will a student's Dartmouth
scholarship eligibility be evaluated as independent. " (page 16)
“You are considered independent for federal financial aid for the 2011-2012 award year if you are 24 or
older as of December 31, 2011. If you are under 24, you will only be considered independent if you are:
Married.
A student with legal dependents other than a spouse.” (page 17)
"If you marry while enrolled as an undergraduate at Dartmouth, you will still be considered a dependent
student, and we will expect a need-based contribution from your parents. You will receive no more
Dartmouth scholarship assistance than you would have received as a single student. On the other hand,
depending upon the circumstances, we may expect a contribution from a working spouse in addition to a
parental contribution. Students contemplating marriage should discuss the financial aid implications with a
financial aid officer. Older students who are married at the time of admission and who have been
independent prior to college enrollment will be considered “self-supporting,” although a spousal
contribution will be included as a resource, if applicable." (page 17)
Students are encouraged to contact a financial aid officer early on to assess any potential changes to their
financial aid package.
Greek Life
None of the publicly available Bylaws and Constitutions of the Panhellenic Council5, the Interfraternity
Council6, the Coeducational Greek Council7, or the Greek Leadership Council8 includes any kind of
nondiscrimination clause for the selection of members or election of officers, let alone one which states
that marital and familial status not be used as bases of discrimination.
All four Councils failed to respond to multiple inquiries about nondiscrimination policies or the existence
of more recent governing documents.
I The project organizers did not inquire with individual houses about their nondiscrimination clauses;
doing so may prove more fruitful.

Office of Residential Life
From College Residence Policies and Terms, Section IV: Housing Policies9:
Eligibility.
All first-year students who are not married, living with a dependent or in a College-recognized
domestic partnership are required to live on campus during their first three academic terms at
Dartmouth. Requests for an exemption to this requirement should be directed to the Office of Residential
Life. Sophomores are guaranteed housing provided they are enrolled in classes in Hanover and participate
in Room Draw or apply by the appropriate housing application deadline. The Office of Residential Life
does not provide family housing.
Students who are married, in College-recognized domestic partnerships, or living with dependents are
referred to Jennifer Jones at the Dartmouth College Real Estate Office for help finding off-campus
housing.
Office of Visa and Immigration Services
Advisors meet with students individually to discuss how specific issues might impact underlying
immigration status.
Student Accessibility Services
From Ward Newmeyer,the Director Department of Student Accessibility Services:
“Pregnancy per se is not considered a disability (e.g., an "uncomplicated" pregnancy). However, there can
be pregnancy-related medical issues that, even if temporary, would cause services we offer to be
appropriate. In such circumstances, we offer services and academic adjustments that are appropriate in the
same manner that we serve other students with disabilities. For example, students restricted to bed rest
(i.e., for preeclampsia) for a long enough time to miss important class activity and for a short enough time
that they should not have to withdraw might be authorized for note-taking services, among other things.”
Off-Campus Housing Information
Dartmouth Real Estate Office
The DRE Rental Housing website provides listings of College-owned rental properties as well as listings
from area landlords. You can base your search on a number of criteria, including cost, size, furnished or

Connect with current undergraduate parents
During my project research the names of three current undergraduate student parents came up. I Project
orgranizers wereas unable to connect with them, but they would certainly be able to shed even more light
on the experience of being both a student and a parent.
