Middlebury’s first student- created anthem came in 2010, when Charlie Taft ’11, of The Allen Jokers — a Middlebury-founded music group — released the Midd Kid music video, which received a whopping 1.7 million views on YouTube. The Windward Entertainment team created original music, wrote original lyrics and filmed a video featuring Middlebury parties, college boys in sunglasses and the Davis Family Library. This past fall, wishing to recreate the 2010 video “to reflect the Middlebury [they’d] come to know and love,” directors and editors Jordan Saint-Louis ’24.5 and Malick Thiam ’24 spent their fall semester behind a video camera, filming a video for a new Middlebury-themed song, which was produced by Professor of the Practice McLean Macionis and written by a collection of friends and lyricists.

Reflecting on my experiences as an Orientation Assistant for the new first-year Febs in 2022, a job I originally deemed invigorating and fun, I realized that I will never do it again. I am not alone in this sentiment; my friends who worked as orientation leaders share similar feelings. Like me, they have opted not to apply as orientation leaders again due to the substandard pay they received weeks after they finished their jobs. In 2022, the college decided to pay students a one-time payment of $300 for eight hours of daily training during their training period and once students arrived, leaders usually worked more than five hours per day. A 2022 article in The Middlebury Campus revealed that leaders are paid less than $4 per hour, which is unacceptably low for the work they do.

An aura of anticipation filled the air last Saturday evening as a nearly full house packed into McCullough Student Center for the return of Nordic music group Dreamers’ Circus. The Wilson Hall stage was packed with over a dozen instruments ranging from a traditional cittern (similar to a lute) to a modern electronic synthesizer, setting the group up for an exciting show. Made up of three highly acclaimed musicians, two from Denmark and one from Sweden, Dreamers’ Circus returned to campus on Oct. 7 as part of their fall 2023 tour after performing at Middlebury three years ago, just before the Covid-19 pandemic. As Ale Carr, Rune Tonsgaard Sørensen and Nikolaj Busk took to the stage, with the lights beginning a colorful, patterned dance, it felt like a triumphant and long-anticipated return for the traditional Nordic band.
