Connecting Midd with Midd Connections

In an effort to connect incoming first-year students with on-campus resources (students, faculty, student services, etc.), I created this program meant to foster a closer sense of community. Incoming students filled out a form that detailed information about them (intended major/minor, interests, etc.), while current students, faculty, and staff filled out a similar, separate form. From there, interests were matched and individuals were connected. Over 200 incoming students participated and I…

Incoming students filled out a form that detailed information about them (intended major/minor, interests, etc.), while current students, faculty, and staff filled out a similar, separate form. From there, interests were matched and individuals were connected. Over 200 incoming students participated and I am hopeful this leads to a more connected and inclusive Middlebury College community in Fall 2020.

Anti-Racism Education Resource

As a Black male in America attending a predominately white institution, race has been a major factor in my experience in academia. As an participant in the Education Studies program, one of the tasks we were faced with was creating a project based on Nikole Hannah-Jones's "1619 Project". I opted to create a website that grew into an even larger project than originally intended by the course curriculum. The website is aimed at disrupting the way in which race and racism are approached in…
As a Black male in America attending a predominately white institution, race has been a major factor in my experience in academia. As an participant in the Education Studies program, one of the tasks we were faced with was creating a project based on Nikole Hannah-Jones's "1619 Project". I opted to create a website that grew into an even larger project than originally intended by the course curriculum. The website is aimed at disrupting the way in which race and racism are approached in education. It goes further to suggest that the path moving forward directly involves having all people involved and educated on facts rather than fictional accounts of American history.
