Beyond the page remimagines education in all departments

(04/20/23 10:05am)

Beyond the Page (BtP) is an innovative learning collective affiliated with the college that has completed one of its many on-campus residencies, which have evolved and broadened over the years since the last time The Campus visited them. The organization was born from a teaching practice that began close to 30 years ago at the Bread Loaf School of English, when the Bread Loaf Acting Ensemble began putting on a play at the end of the summer that spoke to what students had learned and discussed in the program that year. From there, the Ensemble began going into the classroom as teaching artists, encouraging students at the graduate school to engage with texts in new and more immersive ways.

From the Archives: The history of the coronation and royal drama

(04/20/23 10:03am)

“From the Archives” is an opportunity for various writers to visit the Middlebury Special Collections and write about a different artifact each week. The Special Collections boasts hundreds of thousands of historic items, and through this column we encourage writers to explore not only the college’s history, but also the history of the world around us.

From friends to family through fellowship

(04/20/23 10:02am)

No, InterVarsity (IV) is not a sport –– it’s InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. At Middlebury College, we seek to create a space for those looking to explore what it means to have a relationship with God alongside our peers. Our goal is to love the Lord our God and love our neighbor as ourselves. MiddIV has helped me through the ups and downs of college life, including missing home, struggling to find the most joyful path and navigating feelings of stress, confusion and loneliness.

On becoming a preachy, pick-me pescetarian

(04/20/23 10:04am)

Since I became a pescetarian (a vegetarian that eats fish) over six years ago, I have always tried to be pretty low-key about it. I’m not the type that sits atop a high horse and condemns the world’s meat-eaters, or the kind that makes it their entire personality –– even I find those people a bit abrasive. You might think that because I’m writing this piece, I’m not as low-key as I choose to believe, and there may even be some truth in that. Nonetheless, my intention is not to shame meat-eaters, but rather to explain my philosophy and hopefully persuade a few people to stop eating meat along the way.

Spring us from our academic cage

(04/20/23 10:03am)

While we may still be surprised by another snowfall, it’s safe to say that we’ve made it: spring is here. We’ve ditched the winter coats. The days are getting longer. The sun feels warmer. The UV index is slowly creeping up and flowers are starting to bloom. Middlebury is finally starting to regain some color after a long, gray winter. With these welcome changes, we are reminded of all the warm weather activities Vermont has to offer.

Get excited for the big rocks and bagpipes of the Middlebury Highland Games

(04/20/23 10:01am)

We are bringing the Highland Games to Middlebury College. For centuries, people have come together to celebrate Celtic culture at these events, centered around music, dance, food and athletics on Saturday, April 22. Although they originated in the Scottish Highlands, the Highland Games can now be found all over the world and in most U.S. states.

Mandatory attendance: New Directions student show

(04/20/23 10:01am)

As students, we all know that getting mass emails from the college can be frustrating. Another survey to fill out, an initiative that needs attention, a new administrative position being announced. Nevertheless, the email entitled “Mandatory Attendance” that was sent to hundreds of first-year students on Wednesday, April 12 was no such instant-delete message. In fact, it was the very email that mobilized dozens of students to spend part of their Friday night after a day off from school supporting the arts community on campus. If you haven’t yet guessed, this is the email that Joshua Garson ’26 sent out to the first year class “cordially” inviting them to his Intro to Dance recital.

Tell the ones you love you love them: Finding a silver lining in my worst fear

(04/20/23 10:00am)

The college experience at its core is a myriad of “firsts.” For me, it's been a time when I’ve had a number of landmark moments: my first heartbreak, my first tattoo and my first “F” on an assignment. And on April 9, my worst nightmare came true for the first time.
