Letter to the Editor: You can’t have your cake and eat it too

(04/27/23 10:00am)

Last week, the Middlebury Campus Editorial Board used their platform to call upon the administration and professors to address what they perceive to be a pressing campus issue: insufficient free time. We don’t disagree with the general thrust of their argument. Access to nature is an essential aspect of Middlebury. Our natural setting attracts many students to apply in the first place, and nature has been proven to improve mental health. We take issue with how the Editorial Board infantilized the student body in the service of their argument and failed to recognize the priorities of many students they aim to help.

New museum exhibit showcases African photography

(03/09/23 11:02am)

The Middlebury College Museum of Art opened its new exhibit, “Urban Cadence: Street Scenes from Lagos, Nigeria and Johannesburg, South Africa” on March 2. The traveling collection, on exhibition through the spring, consists of around 60 photographs and videos from nine different artists. Created by the Gund Gallery at Kenyon College and Touring Exhibitions of Contemporary Artists of Africa (TECAA), “Urban Cadence” challenges the viewer to explore Lagos and Johannesburg through stories that touch on migration, labor, desperation, success and the quickening speed of daily life as a result of widespread industrialization. The gallery is curated by Professor Carol Magee of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, but it is accompanied by historical context and music assembled by Middlebury faculty and students.

I’m sorry if I’ve scared you

(03/09/23 11:00am)

Multiple times over the past year, one of my friends has told me they felt scared of me before they got to know me. Just the other day, one of my best friends said to me that now, after two years, he was just beginning to understand my social cues, saying that for the longest time, he thought I was always angry. If it took two years to realize my furrowed brow is actually an indicator of anxiety and not anger, there is a non-zero chance that strangers think that I am angry at all times. I attribute this to my near inability and unwillingness to smile.
