On Saturday, Nov. 15, the entrance to the Middlebury Hannaford on Court Street was crowded with students, farmworkers, and Addison County residents rallying in support of Migrant Justice’s Milk with Dignity campaign. Participants gathered to urge the supermarket chain to join the farmworker-designed human rights program, which establishes labor standards for dairy farms supplying store-brand milk.

A “murderously” good time occurred on the evenings of Nov. 13-15, when audiences gathered in Town Hall Theater (THT) to see Middlebury College Musical Theater’s (MCMT) performance of the Tony Award-winning musical “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder.”

For athletes, the phrase “listen to your body” is not foreign. However, many might overlook how listening to oneself connects to the menstrual cycle and its impacts. At SPECS, we acknowledge that not everyone who menstruates identifies as female, and many who identify as female don’t menstruate. Therefore, it is important to consider inclusive terminology when recognizing athletes who menstruate. Terms that we use include, but are not limited to: those who menstruate, people with uteruses, and those who are assigned female at birth (AFAB).

On Nov. 13, the Ilsey Public Library — in partnership with the Vermont Book Shop — hosted Kirk Webster for one of three author series events at the library’s temporary location at 30 Main Street.

Tuesday, Nov. 4, was a huge night for Democrats! Zohran Mamdani, Abigail Spanberger, and Mikie Sherrill all claimed victory in their respective races. At the College Democrats’ watch party, one student exclaimed, “This is the worst night for Republicans since 2020!” But was it? Perhaps not. In fact, this might turn out to be one of the best nights for Republicans and most consequential nights for both parties since Donald Trump’s reelection last November.

Last spring, our college administration censored Migrant Justice at Middlebury (MJaM), a student solidarity network for Migrant Justice. In response to our efforts to keep our community informed about our constitutional rights to safety and free speech, we experienced the sudden revocation of previously awarded funding. We were told that if we wanted answers, we should meet with Hannah Ross, the college’s general legal counsel, and Smita Ruzicka, the vice president of student affairs. At a time when information about these rights has been removed from government websites, and confusion and fear are on the rise, we were extremely concerned by our college administration’s decision to suddenly and arbitrarily limit community education on our constitutional rights. And we still are.

The Student Government Association’s (SGA) Nov. 5 vote to reject a student-led referendum concerning rights for free speech and student protection on our campus raises an important question: Who does the SGA work for? Students, or the Middlebury College administration? We are concerned about the SGA’s decision not to allow these students to host their proposed referendum. The decision raises broader questions about SGA’s role and effectiveness.

I give the laces of my cleats a quick tug before jogging out onto the turf. Nervously, I nod at my teammates, a conglomeration of ex-collegiate players and middle-aged men clad in fluorescent t-shirts. My first touch sends the ball six feet away, and I wince. Shoot, what was that? This is my first time playing in the Shelburne pickup league, and I want to make a good first impression. Sure, it’s supposed to be just for fun, but I can’t shake the voice in my head: You can do better.

Odds are that if you’ve ever looked into the Virtue Field House around 5:30 p.m. this time of year, you’ve been captivated by all the action. Pole vaulters doing backflips on the mat, sprinters flying around the tight corners of the indoor track and throwers catapulting heavy objects towards a net make for quite the spectacle. What’s always captivated me the most, though, is the center-stage act of this Virtue circus: alpine skiers playing speedball.

I spent the past weekend at Zen Mountain Monastery in Woodstock, NY, where Professor Waldron from the Religion Department gave a workshop on The Buddhist Unconscious: Yogācāra Buddhism and How It Illuminates Bias.

“But perhaps I am asking the question the wrong way around,” Zadie Smith writes at one point in her essay “Fascinated to Presume: In Defense of Fiction,” which can be found in her new collection, “Dead and Alive.” It’s a typically Smithian line: an expression of self-doubt signalling the arrival of a new insight whose veracity you, the reader, will likely not doubt at all. What follows, you know, will only further illuminate the subject at hand (and will only be followed by another moment of illumination). The many “but”s in Smith’s essays — the “though”s and “what if”s and “maybe”s — are what you come for, the mark of a writer who stands in pointed opposition to the kind of thinking rewarded in the social media discourse which has become the only real stand-in for our public one.

In the op-ed “No Kings! Except the ones we like…”, published in the Nov. 6 edition of The Campus, the author argues that the protest movement across the country is an example of selective outrage, and that the standard for criticism and condemnation is not applied evenly. While I see merit in some of the writer’s arguments regarding selective outrage and blind partisanship, I disagree with their interpretation of the protest as merely a symptom of partisan selective outrage. While leaders on both sides of the political spectrum have truly abused the power vested in them and acted in ways contrary to modern ethics, I find myself wondering whether, at any time in history, the gross violations by our leaders have been this public and brazen.

Last week, I received sudden and heartbreaking news. My aunt, who was traveling from Qalqilya, Palestine (West Bank) to visit my ailing mother in Jordan, passed away unexpectedly. The news left all of us in shock. Yet, I decided to attend the inauguration of Ian B. Baucom as the 18th president of Middlebury College, because the only way we can truly honor and remember our loved ones is by carrying them in our hearts wherever we go.
