What’s your favorite thing to do during J-Term?
Go to the ice-skating rink with my friends and take ice-skating lessons on the weekend! It’s so much fun spending time with my friends while skating and listening to music. It almost feels like a little party, and it makes the afternoon fly by!
Any tips for incoming students to help them make the most out of their Middlebury experience?
Don’t be afraid to ask for help or make use of the resources Middlebury has to offer! If you’re not sure what academic, health, or other resources our school offers, feel free to reach out to one of the student ambassadors or even me. People really care about each other at Midd, and everyone is willing to help in their own way. Remember, asking for help is not a sign of weakness; it’s actually a sign that you want to grow, improve, and that you really care.
