This isn’t just her most polished work: it’s her best yet.

Over the past few months, an increasing number of incidents have disrupted shared public spaces on campus and prompted punitive responses from the college. After a series of thefts and acts of vandalism, the Anderson Freeman Resource Center (AFC) has decided to close their building after 4:30 p.m., limiting a space where cultural organizations and various students previously met, did work or shared in activities with each other. The college has announced plans to crack down on parking violations due to a high quantity of infractions this year that have frustrated college faculty and staff who need to access parking spots close to their offices. These violations of public space are not unprecedented at Middlebury — last year the college faced issues such as vandalism at The Knoll and computer monitors being stolen from Ross Dining Hall, among other incidents.
