MIDDLEBURY – How do you tap into the energy of Middlebury College’s most motivated students – the ones who, on top of their regular classes, initiate non-graded projects like the organic garden and the Sunday Night Group – to create an environment that compels each and every student to similarly take the lead?
To find the answer, the college has hired Elizabeth Robinson.
As the director of the Project on Creativity and Innovation in the Liberal Arts, a new initiative encouraging all Middlebury students to expand their education beyond the classroom, Robinson’s first task is to identify where and how students are currently initiating creative endeavors.
