Join midd.data for a Lightning Talk with Chris Herdman (Physics). The familiar phases of matter we encounter every day—solids, liquids and gases—are well described by the laws of classical physics. Yet when matter is cooled down to very low temperatures, quantum mechanical effects can become important and transform ordinary matter into a quantum phase of matter. To discover a new phase of matter, you need to “know what it looks like”—that is, you need to identify a physical signature of the phase matter in experimental or simulation data.

Join midd.data for a Lightning Talk with Christopher Star (Classics). This talk will include a report on Star’s ongoing diachronic study of the use of the word “apocalypse” and related ideas in the press. For centuries apocalypse typically referred to the book of Revelation, the final book of the Christian Bible.

Join midd.data for a Lightning Talk with Andrea Robbett (Economics). American politics is currently characterized by polarized beliefs about otherwise verifiable realities, a pathology often ascribed to the influence of “echo chambers” on like-minded partisans. We conducted an online experiment to characterize the demand for, and use of, social information about political beliefs.

Come join the Writing and Rhetoric Program and the Center for Teaching, Learning, and Research as we celebrate Fist Year writers and their nominated writing.

Come visit our research center and museum! Middlebury students are creating an immersive community outreach and engagement experience for Vermonters of all ages who love learning about wildlife and the world of Pokémon. Visitors can touch specimens, ask questions, and collect prizes through speaking with student experts on insects, mammals, and more. Costumes are welcome - we’ll be dressed up too!
