Faculty at Home Webinar with Greg Pask
Social Sniffers: Decoding smell in ants and unlighted fireflies
Smell is the most important sense in the life of an insect. It drives critical behaviors such as foraging for food, finding a mate, and locating an egg-laying site. But ants living in a colony also need to communicate with their sisters! And some fireflies have gone to the “dark side” and no longer produce dazzling courtship displays at night. Our current research fueled by Middlebury students aims to understand how these powerful sensory systems evolved.

A Student-Faculty Dialogue on Pandemic Teaching
How has your teaching experience been shifting modalities? What helped? What feedback did you receive from students? What would you need to know from students? These questions will animate this collaborative student-faculty conversation to help us better understand the connections between our pedagogies and our students’ reception of our courses. This interactive discussion will enable deep reflection of where we’ve been, but more importantly, offer creative ideas about working with each other in the Spring 2022 semester, and beyond.Davis Family Library Wilson Media Development Lab
