Audrey explains commons system at Midd
Tori's friend Audrey explains the Commons system at Middlebury. The summer before an incoming freshman's first semester, they choose a First-Year Seminar, which is a required class and can cover all kinds of different subjects. From there, those seminars are then affiliated with a particular commons: Atwater, Brainerd, Cook, Ross, or Wannacott. They each are housed in particular first year dorms. That way, you can have a close community of people you not only take classes with, but live with as well.

As you can see in the back from a really cool hang out event, all the rest like staff. I'm here with a cell over his life member Audrey on. She's gonna tell you guys about the common system here at mid. Okay, so the common system is basically the first years, and we'll all residents are put into these common systems. You grew up like, through your time in college, you stay within the common system. Um, you live with the same people for two years basically. The comments puts on events such as, like bonding moments with snacks and also educational events that, you know, a raise awareness for issues that are happening on campus. On it is a great way to get to know people and to have a good family right from the start, when you enter Middlebury, especially since there's an awesome Risley, isn't it? Like so.
