Small class sizes and intimate academic experiences have long been a core tenet of a Middlebury education. The college proudly boasts our 9:1 student-to-faculty ratio and our average class size of 16 on its website and on every tour. But this has not been reflective of our Middlebury experience for years, and the college announced in the spring that it is raising its target enrollment to balance its budget.

In an article critical of the so-called hypocrisy of the No Kings protest in The Campus last week, Ignacio Gamero ‘26 accused protestors of “cheapening authoritarianism.” He argued that other presidents had previously taken similar oversteps of executive power, and that Trump’s activities were not unusual for a president.

This is not only a result of the Trump administration’s “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education” leveraged at Middlebury in October, but also because of the college administration’s conviction that silence will protect us. At a time when our community’s rights to safety and speech are being threatened, Middlebury’s current systems for the expression of student voice do not seem able to meet this moment.
