Professor of Political Science Eric Davis was quoted in the Nov. 8 edition of the Christian Science Monitor. The article was titled "Seceding seldom succeeds, but Vermonters try."
Middlebury was mentioned in two articles in the April 13 edition of the Christian Science Monitor. One article, titled "How students in one class tackled global warming," is about the students in Assistant Professor of Economics Jon Isham's winter term class, "Building the New Climate Movement," who developed the Flat Earth Award (http://www.flatearthaward.org) as part of their course work. The article, which quotes Jon and Minna Brown '07, is on the paper's Web site here. The second article, "No thanks Harvard, I found a better fit," discusses signs of a trend among high school seniors to select colleges based on the right fit rather than solely on reputation. A student mentioned in the article visited Middlebury and then decided to attend the University of Connecticut. This article is on the paper's Web site here.
