International and Global Studies (IGS) is one of Middlebury’s most popular majors. It offers students the opportunity to critically analyze global trends, to specialize in a region or theme of study and to develop foreign language skills before using them while abroad. It should be the Middlebury exemplar for taking our Vermont-based interdisciplinary education global.

Four years after her last major release, “Solar Power,” Grammy award-winning artist Lorde has reemerged with “What Was That,” the lead single from her upcoming fourth album “Virgin,” which is set to drop on June 27.

I sat. To say that this night was momentous was a disservice to the magnitude I felt it held. My brother sat, then our friend James sat. All of us lounged on the L-shaped couch in my living room, a perfect middle ground between the two speakers and amplifier that make up our home surround sound system. We had spent the previous five years anticipating this album’s release, and the previous 18 hours anticipating the first listen. Different generations will claim their own “voice,” the singer or band who best emulates the revolution that is adolescence. For the three of us on that couch, that voice was Zachary Cole Smith and DIIV.

The future of academia and human capability has been called into question in the past several years with the rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Perhaps nowhere is this concern more pressing than in a classroom, where A.I. has weakened trust between professors and students, made cheating more normalized and enabled some people at Middlebury to skate through their classes without truly learning.

The Middlebury Commencement is in the realm of the sacred, in what sociologist Émile Durkheim called “the ritual sense of the word. It has … transcendental majesty.” What are its sacred elements? The processional, during which faculty and other luminaries enter to the applause of seniors; the land acknowledgement and opening prayer; the commencement address (e.g., speaker Isabel Wilkerson’s inspiring call in 2018 for “radical empathy”); the singing of the Alma Mater, with its paean to the “sunset glowing o'er the mountains, snowy peaks and winding ways”; the recessional, during which the seniors — now Middlebury graduates — exit to the applause of the faculty and the others. It all adds up to a timeless, transcendent ritual.
