My Midd Experience

A student from Nepal who found the academic rigor he was looking for at Middlebury, and came to feel at home in the local community. A hockey star who studied the environment and earned a Watson Fellowship to travel the world. A fiddler and a chemistry student from the West Coast who has become a player in Middlebury musical circles, and picked up a prestigious academic fellowship. A young woman from Connecticut via New York City who helped found a student group dedicated to expanding the horizons of local school children in Vermont, and later won a scholarship for undergraduate and graduate study.

Many of Middlebury's students and recent alumni have compelling stories to tell. We've started a collection, and we'll be sharing them here, where we give these students and alums a chance to tell you about "My Midd Experience."

We've also created an archive of previous "My Midd Experience" stories.
