Hi! My name is Kalvin and I am from Arkansas, where I have lived all of my life. I am a first-generation student who has always been both excited and anxious about the chaotic and stimulating environment of college. I am a prospective sociology and/or history major with a minor in education studies. In the future, I would like to be a teacher or a professor but I am excited for whatever my experience at Midd may bring!
Why did you choose to attend Middlebury?
When I was in my first year of high school, my teacher spoke about her experience being a Midd alum. She talked about the school with such passion and admiration that I knew I needed to check it out. After my first information session, I was drawn to the school’s small class size, proximity to the outdoors, and its study-abroad opportunities.
What is your favorite food in the dining hall?
I absorbedly love the firecracker salmon they have at Proctor. They sometimes change the sauce’s name on the salmon but it is always the same.
Any tips for incoming students to help them make the most out of their Middlebury experience?
Go into the experience with an open mind. Take random classes and try out clubs you are on the fence about. You are going to have so many unexpected adventures! Those adventures have been one of the best parts of my first year at Midd.
