Since her childhood in India, Minakshi "Mina" M.

Common Ground: Nick Pattison '18 And William "Brownie" Brown, 101, Forge A Close Friendship In "Just Passing The Time", Gerry Boyle

Colby Magazine

It was lunchtime at a nursing home in Waterville, and Nick Pattison '18 had brought a feast: homemade venison sausage, pancakes, and cubes of cantaloupe, served on paper plates. Pattison's friend, William "Brownie" Brown, 101, sat in his easy chair as Pattison poured fresh maple syrup.

"Thank you, kind chef," Brownie said, then turned to a visitor and said in a slow stage whisper, "Right out of the blue he'll come barging in."

Every Sunday for more than a year and a half, Pattison has been "barging in" at Lakewood Continuing Care Center, where Brownie lives.

Sweating The Small Stuff: Linking Plankton To Climate Change, Brian Kim '18 Makes Conncetions, Stephen Collins

Colby Magazine

It takes an expansive mind to connect microscopic marine copepods (certain crustacean plankton) unwittingly chomping on floating microplastics with a bigger picture: the planet’s carbon pump and global climate change. But that’s what Brian Kim ’18 decided to investigate during Jan Plan, working with Bigelow Lab Senior Research Scientist David Fields.
