It was early morning on the Tabaski holiday in Senegal, where I recently taught first grade at the International School of Dakar. At the home of Almamy Badiane, his sisters and sisters-in-law made preparations for a feast that would last all day and into the night. Venturing into the outdoor kitchen with my dusty Holga medium-format camera, I was not unwelcome, but I knew my place as a guest was beside the host. My own plastic chair was waiting. The result was this image, which appears in a new book of short stories set in West Africa, Everything Is Insha'Allah …

My favorite film of late was Jem Cohen's Museum Hours- it had a short run at Railroad Square Cinema. Museum Hours is a narrative film, but Cohen explores multiple forms of cinema.

After a final warm-up trill, the room quiets and conductor Stan Renard reaches for the baton. As the musicians watch him intently, he raises his arms, takes a breath, and delivers the opening cue. With that, Colby students and faculty, high schoolers, local amateurs, and seasoned professionals begin to play.

The Intersection Of Art And Medicine: Tanya Sheehan Breaks Down The Boundaries Between Disciplines, Gerry Boyle
Colby Magazine
Tanya Sheehan arrived at Georgetown University intending to become a medical doctor. She aced her organic chemistry lab section, eventually was turned off by the rote memorization the program emphasized, and then discovered art history and film studies. "That changed everything," she said, "but I never forgot about science and medicine."
Strengthening A Historic Connection: Center For Small Town Jewish Life To Bolster Community Ties And Replace Them Elsewhere, Stephen Collins
Strengthening A Historic Connection: Center For Small Town Jewish Life To Bolster Community Ties And Replace Them Elsewhere, Stephen Collins
Colby Magazine
For generations, collaboration between Colby and central Maine's Jewish community has been one of the strong threads in the fabric of the town-gown partnership, and in recent years it's grown even stronger. Now a new initiative will extend that tie, attempting to bottle the formula that connects Colby, Hillel, and Waterville's Beth Israel Congregation so colleges and communities across the country can try to replicate it.

Educating By Poetry: In A Too-Literal World, Metaphor Makes Magical Connections, Adrian Blevins
Colby Magazine
I often rouse students in my poetry classes through hypothetical exams. Sometimes the subject of the exam is quite narrow: Is this image of something "falling light as a thistlebloom" effective in Heather's gritty Manhattan poem? Or the question is vast, universal: What is the purpose of poetry? Why are we sitting here doing this? Shouldn't we cease our literary indulgences right this instant and find some hungry kids to feed?
The purpose of the exam that I don't give and don't grade is just a way to generate discussion, of course, but the fact that it is imaginary could …

Fr 371 Writing The Self / L'Ecriture De Soi
Colby College Museum of Art
In the spring of 2015, Colby students from the course FR 371 "L'écriture de soi / Writing the Self," taught by Assistant Professor Audrey Brunetaux, analyzed a variety of written and visual texts to understand how French writers, artists, and filmmakers conceptualize the notion of the "self." Research projects on Alex Katz, James McNeill Whistler and Mary Cassatt, accessible in French and English below, enabled students to apply the concepts and theories from class to textual and visual material in the Colby College Museum of Art.

Clivus Composting Toilet Systems At Flag Staff Lake, Chi Do, Grace Baldwin
Clivus Composting Toilet Systems At Flag Staff Lake, Chi Do, Grace Baldwin
CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium
Clivus Multrum composting toilet systems have been used in homes, parks and commercial buildings as the sole method of treating toilet waste. The composting process is reliable, convenient and safe. Its results are both conservative and productive; water is saved from use as a carriage medium and the fertilizer content in excreta is made available for reuse. The Clivus composting toilet uses aerobic decomposition to slowly break down both urine and feces into stable compounds within the polyethylene composting unit. Our poster will outline the technology and economics behind a Clivus system as part of the course Joules to Dollars.
