As Shrek once said to Donkey, "Ogres are like onions. Ogres have layers."
In this respect, liberal arts colleges are a lot like ogres and onions: they all have layers. Most students interact with just a few layers of Middlebury: friends, coaches and professors among them. We may be aware of several others, like the Commons deans, maintenance workers, mailroom staff and librarians, to name a few. But there are many more layers at Middlebury about which students know next to nothing. These layers are no less important to the College than all the rest. The Campus decided to peel back the layers of Middlebury's onion to take a lighthearted look at the roles of three people who most students don't know: Commons Chef Richard O'Donohue, MiddRides Driver Laurent Lussier and Ross Custodial Team Leader Donna Paquette.
By the way, Donkey's response to Shrek?
"You know, not everybody likes onions…"
