Title A name given to the resource What does it mean to be an activist at Middlebury Subject The topic of the resource While it may seem that Middlebury is a very activist-heavy campus, the truth is that there are many obstacles and challenges that student activists must overcome in order to organize and protest for what they believe in. These can challenges can be anything from apoliticalness/apathy from fellow students to the geographical "bubble" that comes with being situated in rural Vermont, to the administration that seems to be inhospitable to student activism.

"Student activists also must navigate the rules set by the administration for student organizing, a process which Blalock said is 'unnecessarily burdensome.'"

Title A name given to the resource Student Activists Hold Solidarity Rally Subject The topic of the resource Following the Legutko fiasco, students organized a march from the Queer Studies house to Wilson Hall (it was ultimately held inside due to weather). The rally was in response to the various troubling occurrences on campus during the time (Legutko, Nazi question on chemistry midterm, joke about slave ships, etc.). Activists included both students and professors. The goal of the event was not only to provide the group with an open mic to voice their concerns/feelings but also to uplift various marginalized identities in order to "build bridges" across different groups of people.

Title A name given to the resource Belonging At Middlebury Subject The topic of the resource The annual Zeitgeist Project found that one in every three Middlebury Students feels a sense of "otherness" as if they don't belong at the college. Aspects that made students feel as though they did not belong included socio-economic status, race, ethnicity, athletics, and sexuality. Money was the largest factor in determining a sense of belonging. This is not exceptionally surprising seeing as "a 2017 study found that ... 76% of students came from families with household incomes in the top 20%". The study also found that white students were the only racial group where respondents did not overwhelmingly report a feeling of otherness.

Title A name given to the resource Official Statement by Middlebury Student Organizers Regarding the Events of April 17, 2019 Subject The topic of the resource Official Statement from the students who organized the canceled protest on Legutko's visit to Middlebury. The statement characterizes the frustration that students felt with the lack of transparency that they received from the administration. Specifically, the ambiguity of the perceived "security threat" created a feeling of insecurity and fear amongst the students, who thought that they themselves were in danger. The students were not made aware of the smaller talk that Legutko ended up giving for Professor Dickinson's PSCI class.

Title A name given to the resource Admin Failed Protesters and Lecture Organizers Subject The topic of the resource An op-ed piece by The Editorial Board of The Campus. describes the multiple ways that the administration failed to react appropriately to the canceled Legutko lecture. The cancellation dismissed the effort that student organizers had put into planning a non-disruptive/ non-violent protest that would have complied with Middlebury's new rules on student protesting. The student body was not informed of the semi-private talk that Legutko had with Professor Dickinson's PSCI class. This stripped them of their ability to protest/challenge Legutko's ideas/ exercise their own freedom of speech.

Title A name given to the resource Prof. Shows Cartoon Joking About Slavery Subject The topic of the resource Professor Manley included a cartoon that joked about slavery in her class slideshow. The cartoon itself depicted a slave ship crossing the ocean, with a person strapped to the back of the ship. The caption of the cartoon read "The better-equipped slave ships, of course, always carried a spare". Manley later apologized for her actions in response to an email from The Campus. This speaks to the need for mandatory bias training for professors.

Title A name given to the resource White Allies Asked to Support Eliminating White Supremacy in Curriculum Subject The topic of the resource Coverage of the student-organized and run "White Allies: It's Your Turn" meeting at Hillcrest Orchard. The meeting aimed to address the way that historically white academic institutions, like Middlebury, are a proponent of maintaining white supremacy and cultural hegemony. The event was a chance for white students to learn about the ways that they could advocate for racial equality outside of the classroom. The goal is for more students to become involved with the push to "decolonize the curriculum" of Middlebury, by giving voices to works that have traditionally been ignored in favor of white/western intellectuals.

"Brooks... described Middlebury as a site of colonial indoctrination, and said that the first step toward being on the right side of history is to decolonize the curriculum by incorporating diverse viewpoints that are often neglected by academia." "Most of the academic content used in Middlebury's courses was produced in colonial and white supremacist systems, [Brooks] said, and the intentional addition of different perspectives to curricula makes the context more complete."

In particular, students discussed geographical segregation on campus, with certain areas, such as Atwater parties, the central areas of the dining halls, and the gym being widely acknowledged as white and/or for athletes." "The Anderson Freeman Center received conflicting reviews, with some students lauding the space as accepting, and others feeling as though the center spreads itself too thin in attempting to act as a resource for all minority identities." "The section on economic isolation also echos ideas of exclusion -- especially for students of color, student employees, and first-generation students." campus culture racial discrimination student life
