Wonnacott Word Issue 2

Dear Wonnacotters,

You've probably noticed that our layout has changed somewhat. We've migrated from a picture-based layout to a more dynamic layout with links and other stuff active so you can click around. Feedback? E-mail me! We hope you like it, enjoy reading!

Questions: What is you favorite Ben and Jerry's ice cream flavor? Bacon, Sausage, guacamole and cheddar blast...it's amaaazing! It even has little olive pieces and walnuts floating around it in...

Where is your favorite place to study on campus? The gamut room, most certainly. Although that's generally because I do about fifteen minutes of studying and move on to a round of scrabble with some popcorn and ginger beer.

Do you have a proctor crush? after three and a half years of this place, I should have to say that I am finally free of Proctor crushes. Middlebury offers great counseling services for this very topic, and I have taken full advantage of them.

Last chance to bid on your favorite items at the Fight the Cold Auction! Bidding will end on Friday, December 8th at 5pm—come to the office for Fondue Friday and take home great holiday gifts! Items will be out for bidding this week in the commons office, as well as Ross Dining hall at dinner on Wednesday and lunch on Friday. Check the items out here!

It’s time to donate to the holiday bonus for the great custodial teams that do so much for Wonnacott throughout the year!

Please drop off money to your RAs , JCs, CRAs, or to the Wonnacott Commons office. This is a great opportunity to show our appreciation for all our custodial teams do! Please hand in money before Dec. 12th.  

115 Franklin St. Saturday, December 9 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Middlebury students and faculty and staff families will get together for a fun and slightly chaotic afternoon. We’ll have a light lunch available and all the materials you can think of for assembling your very own house. Get ready to express yourself in frosting and gumdrops . . . Please RSVP to Will Nash or Deb Evans at x2331 or via e-mail

Ugandan Batiks for Sale (kind of like paintings, but cooler!) Made by AIDs Orphans in Rakai, Uganda (A gorgeous but incredibly poor, HIV/AIDS-stricken area of Uganda) $20These are gorgeous; they're an awesome wall decoration or Christmas present, PLUS you'll be helping out AIDS orphans, many of whom live in child-headed families in isolated locations, and can barely find food to eat every day.

All money made goes straight back to the orphans who made them!(no office-worker salaries, no bureaucratic fees)
