Speaking to her 'place' in the poetic tradition, she concludes that her work exists in its own space. The Anglo-American poetic community does not accept her." "Although she visited campus before matriculating, she says that she 'didn't feel the impact of Middlebury until [she] walked into Battell.' Surrounded by mostly 'skinny blonde girls,' most of whom fit the Middlebury J.Crew stereotype, Belle's perception of life and of herself rapidly changed." campus culture student activism student life Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Concerned Students of Middlebury: Reevaluating Middlebury’s Record with Black Students Subject The topic of the resource Letter sent to President Patton from Concerned Students of Middlebury, a student organization, in response to a community message that she sent on May 31st. The letter calls Patton's message "tone deaf" and calls her out for: 1. conflating COVID-19 to racism; 2. framing racism as a "new" or "recent" phenomenon; 3. "The hypocrisy associated with Middlebury’s verbal allegiance to racial equity but lack of action"; 4. Failing to support Black community members; insensitive use of air as a metaphor (The statement claims that 'in a world beset by two plagues, we are gasping for air.' This use of air as a metaphor, here and throughout the message, is grossly offensive, given that George Floyd’s (and before him, Eric Garner’s) final words were 'I can't breathe'". Letter then makes a list of immediate actions to be implemented by the college: 1. an apology for Patton's letter; 2. resources specifically for Black community members to utilize during this time; resources for non-Black community members, so that they can become better allies. Finally, the Letter asks for representation of cultural organizations at the SLG meetings, as well as a student or faculty member to represent communities of color at the Board of Trustee meetings.
