MCAB Traditions invites you to come kick off the school year with a day at Lake Dunmore! Buses will be running from ADK from 12:30 PM to 4:30 PM to help students get to Branbury State Park. Tasty treats and lawn games will be provided! This day is also in special memory of all of the Middlebury students we have lost over the years, and a way to celebrate their lives

Bringing a metal tree to ‘life’, we will be filling out the bark (in form of recycled fabrics) to a 9-12 ft tall metal structure. There will be paint to paint fabrics, lights to string up and through, and bring your creative mind what ever physical thing you want to include (if any) to be a part of this public art piece.
Will be a part of the Nocturne Art Festival and shown for a week in the library after.

BOLD Women’s Leadership Network Thrive Guide (an unofficial survival guide to Middlebury College) with MiddCakes and Sushi in the Davis Library

Come attend “Beyond Racial Solidarity: Asian Organizing in the Context of the Rise of the Reactionary Right,” a lecture by Helena Wong and Adrian Leong ‘16.5!

While there has been a well-documented increase of the reactionary right, there has also been an increasing presence of reactionary forces within Asian communities in the US. How are they connected? How do they differ? And what are the ways that Asian communities continue to align themselves in struggles for racial and social justice?

The survivor (Barbara Kaye) will share her story of how she was trafficked in New York and how this contributed to a serious drug addition. In addition she will talk about her recovery and we will open up the floor to questions.

Join us as Abby Stein shares her story with the Middlebury community.
