Say Cheese

July20

Fact: Vermont has more cheesemakers per capita than any other state. Fact: When I am not tour guiding or working in the Admissions office, I am a cheesemonger. What is that, you ask? At home, I work at a cheese shop, and as a result have more knowledge about cheeses than I know what to […]

明德大学中文暑校

July17

Or, *Middlebury College Chinese Summer School! As you all probably know of the Middlebury Summer Language Schools by now (see Maxwell’s post!), I made my first real foray into the Chinese School this week. I have a handful of connections to students studying at the school, from fellow classmates from my Chinese classes at Midd, […]

Sweet Deals

July16

Wednesday is an important day for many reasons. One, it’s “hump day,” which means the work week is almost over. Also, as every member of the Middlebury community does or should know, entrees are half-price at The Lobby. The Lobby is a restaurant on the water (Otter Creek) in downtown Middlebury, with an atmosphere between upscale […]

#FeelTheBern

July9

So, I’m actually reporting from out of the office today. I, with three other Midd students, am currently in Washington, D.C. at a national conference for Planned Parenthood Generation Action as members of an on-campus activism group. Despite having little background in the realm of political science, I was able to spend all day in […]

July6

Middlebury is an awesome small town; better yet, it is surrounded by other awesome small towns. Since yesterday was so warm and sunny, I revisited a personal favorite spot in Bristol, a town less than 15 miles from Middlebury. Just beyond the town center runs the New Haven River, with a gorge and falls where a […]

Happy 4th!

July4

Spur-of-the-moment activities are often the best activities. And when they involve homemade food, new friends, exploring the big, bad city of Burlington (smallest biggest city represent!), and fireworks, you really can’t go wrong. One of the best parts of this trip was travelling into the city with near-strangers but coming home with friends (ahem, because […]

Campus’s Hidden Gems

July2

Anywhere in Bicentennial Hall could be–and often is–used as a study space. The best ones, in my opinion, are a little more hidden and unique. While the benches and tables on the 5th floor facing the West have large windows overlooking the Adirondacks and the Organic Farm, that is probably my second favorite study space. (A […]

Something Old…

June24

Old books, that is. Like Kendall, I also made a venture to expand the small library of my summer dorm room (with an expansive collection approximately 5 books strong). I made a stop at “that used bookstore on Route 7!”, or as it is more formally known, Monroe Street Books. And let me tell you, […]
