Our regular recap of goings on at the College and a look ahead to events on the horizon.
As always, we hope to call your attention to items that captured ours and alert you to events that you won’t want to miss. If you have a news item that you think we’d be interested in, drop us a line at middmag@middlebury.edu.
- The new academic year began with a literary coup: a visit by novelist Ian McEwan to Mead Chapel.
- Dean of the College Shirley Collado has posted her inaugural message on the blog One Dean’s View.
- President Liebowitz recently blogged about the College’s curriculum—and extended an invitation to the students to join the conversation.
- For a while, it seemed like every time we turned on the television, there was another Midd face. First, McKibben was on Letterman; then Shabana hit both the pages of Glamour magazine and the Today Show studio.
- The curtain has risen on the 2010–11 arts season at the College, and several shows have caught the eye of Burlington alt-weekly Seven Days.
- Trying to make sense of this fall’s political races? Poly sci professor Matthew Dickinson can get you up to speed.
- There are a full slate of fall athletic contests on campus this weekend (with the exception of football). Check out www.gomidd.com for the schedule.
