As they begin classes today, Dartmouth’s 1,169 newest students have come to Hanover from all corners of the globe. The members of the undergraduate Class of 2022 make up the most geographically diverse class to matriculate at the College, hailing from 57 countries—almost one-third of the world’s nations.
