In the 1960s, a young American president helped initiate the civil rights movement, captured the imagination of a nation with the establishment of the Peace Corps, launched the space age, nurtured the birth of the computer/digital age, and began the escalation of a war in Southeast Asia that exacted a horrific toll on the lives and emotions of his countrymen. Sheltered by the foothills of the White Mountains from the world events swirling around it, Dartmouth College resplendently approached 1969—the 200th anniversary of its founding as a school for Native Americans. As the smallest of the Ivy League schools, it was known for its dedication to a rigorous undergraduate education, its isolation from urban centers and sports prowess, and the intriguing manifestations of its all-male culture. In Days of Splendor, Hours like Dreams, author and 1967 Dartmouth College graduate Charles “Chuck” A. Hobbie offers a detailed, frank, and unpretentious memoir. Hobbie remembers the splendor and the fullness of his undergraduate days in the last decade of Dartmouth’s all-male culture. He recounts the minutiae of his courses; friendships with classmates; his dates; and the faculty; academic, social, musical, and sporting events; the extraordinary beauty of the college’s location; and his evolving affection for the remarkable school where hours passed like dreams.
As the 1967 graduates of Dartmouth College received their diplomas, not many of them envisioned spending several years overseas in the underdeveloped world, living and working amid unimaginable disease, extreme poverty, and other hardships. But an extraordinary number of class members from the remote college in New Hampshire’s mountains subsequently accepted invitations to journey to twenty-four different countries to live, work, learn, socialize, subsist, and grow with families in their host countries. They were Peace Corps volunteers, and their mission was to promote world peace and friendship in programs of agriculture, conservation, education, forestry, health, hydrology, law, marketing, engineering, rural development, urban development, and tourism. These volunteers were among the more than 650 graduates of the small but historic ivy league institution in the upper Connecticut river valley who have responded over the past sixty years to President John F. Kennedy’s challenge to help their country and the world. Peace Corps’ national headquarters has described Dartmouth’s cooperation with the Corps as “unsurpassed.” This book features their incredible stories, compellingly describing what nineteen of them and five spouses did, how they lived, whom they met, what they learned, and how they were challenged and changed by their experiences.
