As my shoes squeaked underneath dew-dropped grass, I readied my camera — filled with expired film — to document Addison County’s biggest car show of the year. Surrounding the perimeter of popped hoods hiding chrome-tinted engines were flashy semi-trailer trucks and towering off-roading vehicles. Though the cars are mostly old, this experience for me was pure novelty as I watched families with giddy kids ogling at each vintage Camaro or Chevrolet Impala they saw, the owners proudly explaining technical specs and neat facts about vehicles they’ve kept in pristine condition for generations.

A few weeks ago, students currently living off campus received an email from Dean of Students Derek Doucet informing them of recent updates for off-campus residences.

We’re guessing that most of us don’t want broken glass, beer cans, vomit or urine in the spaces we inhabit. Yet a return to the pre-Covid party scene has also, unfortunately, ushered in a return of damage, destruction and vandalism of both public and private spaces. We’re not totally sure why drunk students like to smash, steal and break things on nights out, but we do know that it represents a level of entitlement and disregard that other community members should in no way have to deal with.

This past weekend, the Middlebury Maple Run was held for the first time since 2019.

Let me begin by putting this in terms you may better understand: Baaah, bahh, bahh. This is directed toward the sheep that graze in Ross dining hall; the sheep that meekly fall into a single line the length of China’s Great Wall at 12:15 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays. If you’re saying to yourself right now, “bahh, bahh, bahh,” (translation: obviously there is only one line in Ross), well think again. The two line solution has had massive success in other areas such as Proctor and Atwater. With two lines in Ross, we can massively improve the efficiency of personal serving in Ross. How many times have you sat in line for eons for some harlequin to decide whether he wants one or two pieces of chicken, while a bounty of authentic penne and fragrant Midd Marinara, the only thing you’re hankering for, sits unscathed; just waiting, yearning, to be eaten by you.

Where to begin. “Don’t Worry Darling” is a big-budget, star-studded psychological thriller whose reputation preceded its release. I had high hopes for the film, but as the credits rolled, those hopes were replaced with questions.

Two weeks ago, a crisis pregnancy center was allowed a table at Middlebury College’s Student Involvement Fair.

As a guest of the Performing Arts Series of Middlebury College, Burlington Taiko visited Middlebury on Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 to introduce the community to the ancient Japanese tradition of taiko.

The performances, as well as the history of this ancient art, captivated the Middlebury community not only on the days of the performances but in the workshops leading up to them.
