  • Professor Erin Wolcott

    Extraordinary Teaching

    When Middlebury moved to remote learning in 2020, economics professor Erin Wolcott’s students were, she says, “devastated to say goodbye to their friends, concerned about the state of the world, and worried they would not learn anything online.” But the class transitioned smoothly. Students were engaged. They discussed immigration, tariffs, and the disproportionate effect of COVID-19. And guest speakers, including a trade economist from the Federal Reserve and an editor from the New York Times, joined the class.

We are always exploring new opportunities and programs to educate the next generation of global citizens. You help bring the world to Middlebury, and Middlebury to the world.

    Affordability

    “I was a first-generation college student, and tuition was a daunting financial burden. A scholarship made a life-changing experience possible for me, and for that I am forever grateful. Currently I am completing my medical residency in emergency medicine, and starting a family with my wife, Lizzie ’11, who I met at Middlebury.”

    Scholar Athletes

    “Top athletes in Division III choose Middlebury because we offer exceptional academics, strong teams, the best facilities, and generous financial aid. These are leaders on the field and in the classroom, and our peer schools compete hard for them. We’re fortunate to have the people and programs at Middlebury that stand out to student-athletes and their families.”
