Provost's Office
The BOLD thrive guide is a cumulative project that the BOLD scholars have been working on for the past year. We imagined this guide to serve as a starting point for first years to begin their navigation through Middlebury and feel better equipped for the journey ahead. In addition to promoting and distributing this guide, we also want to take this time for people to enjoy affirmations, self-love, and delicious food (sushi and middcakes)!

Attend this student workshop with author, activist, and Lama (Buddhist Teacher) Rod Owens is an author, activist, and Lama (Buddhist Teacher). Stevie Wonder once sang, “Love’s in need of love today.” His words couldn’t be more true as we face a global community struggling with war, poverty, illness, climate instability, and the rise of political authorities and governments who do not seem to be grounded in compassion or kindness.
