what we have to do, what is just our

responsibility, is to tell and inform as
many stud ents as possible.
From here, the group plans on
expanding their sales of empanadas
to College Houses and on the Quad
with the help of a Good Ideas Fund
grant, like they did on Thursday afternoon. In addition, they hope to
host more fundraising and awareness events, like coffee houses or an
Alternative Spring Break trip.
Next Friday, May 6, at 3 p.m. on
the Main Quad, there will be a Gelato Fiasco fundraising event: all proceeds will go to their campaign for
Ecuadors Red Cross.

Despite two major late-notice changes to the performer schedule this year,
Bowdoin is planning for one of the most
exciting Ivies weekends yet.
Five hours before he was scheduled
to perform in David Saul Smith Union
last night, Waka Flocka Flame announced on Twitter that he was stuck
in Denver and would miss the show.
In an email to the student body, the Entertainment Board (eBoard) announced
that he would instead perform on Saturday at 3 p.m.
M, the headlining performer originally scheduled for Saturdays concert,
cancelled her Bowdoin show and others
in the Northeast at the end of March.
Baauer was contracted to replace her as
the leading act on Saturday.
Further highlights of the weekend
include two student DJ acts, Nadim
Elhage 16 and Nabil Odulate 16, two
acts from the annual Battle of the Bands
contest, a poutine food truck, a photo
booth and a barbeque hosted by Bowdoin Dining Services.
The Meddiebempsters and the Longfellows launched the weekend with their
Ivies Kickoff Concert Wednesday night
in the chapel. Bowdoin Sketch Comedy
presented their annual Bowdoin Night
Live Wednesday night in Kresge Auditorium as well.
The eBoard had hoped to introduce a
two-artist system this year, which would
feature one performer on Thursday and
one on Saturday.
We felt like students were kind of
fading by our second artist last year.
We thought he was a great performer,
but it wasnt worth spending the money
on another artist if people were just too
tired to really enjoy the concert. So we
decided better to invest in one great art-

Students raise thousands for Ecuador after earthquake

BY LIZA TARBELL
ORIENT STAFF
Following the 7.8 magnitude

earthquake in Ecuador on April 16,
Ecuadorian Bowdoin students Cesar
Siguencia 18, Caroline Martinez 16,
Andres Aguaiza 17, Paola Rios 18
and Cristina Tamay 18 immediately
began planning fundraising efforts
to support their country from afar.
The group has been selling empanadas in Smith Union to raise money
for the Red Cross. They raised $805
during their sales on April 20 and
April 21. Siguencia explained that
the group decided to give to the Red
Cross directly because the organization provides the simplest way to
distribute funds to the most amount
of people in Ecuador.
Hoping to reach $5,000 in dona-
tions, their online fundraiser will

stay open until May 6 on their GoFundMe page. As of press time, the
group has raised a grand total of
$2,035 from 43 donors in the past
seven daysan average of almost
$50 per donation.
Martinez felt driven to do whatever she could despite the distance
from her home country.
I had other friends who were
there and who were volunteering,
so to be here at Bowdoin and to not
[be] doing anything just felt wrong,
said Martinez.
Students and professors alike have
shown solidarity in their fundraising
efforts, noted Siguencia.
I want to thank the people that
have been very supportive, I think
as Cesar said, like [Roger Howell, Jr.]
Professor [of History] Allen Wells
encouraging his students to come

and [Associate] Professor [of Romance Languages and Literatures
Enrique] Yepes and other people
donating online and sending encouraging messages, said Martinez.
I received a lot of messages from
professors and mentors and people
in the Career Planning Center and
friends just asking me if my family
and friends were safe and that meant
a lot as well.
Because of the continuing impacts
of this earthquake, both the physical
and emotional damage will endure
beyond the timeframe of the fundraising campaign.
I am Ecuadorian, and I am very
proud of that, but at the same time, it
is a third world country, its not that
big up in the news, said Siguencia.
So for Ecuadorians at this school,

Prominent Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson 07 finished sixth

in Tuesdays Democratic primary for Baltimore mayor, garnering two percent of the vote. Mckesson profusely thanked his supporters on his Twitter
page, saying, Thank you to all of the supporters, voters & donors who contributed to my campaign. In 83 days, we changed the landscape of the race.
Even though Mckesson was the last to enter the race, announcing his bid for
candidacy on February 3, his tweets on Tuesday reminded his followers that
he was the first to release a comprehensive platform and that the ideas &
platform our campaign introduced will influence the next administration.
With over 343,000 Twitter followers, Mckessons social media presence
both benefited and impaired his campaign. In an interview with Yahoo
News, Mckesson acknowledged the presss focus on his low poll numbers
and activism background as well as the pressure to document his campaigning efforts online.
[The social media presence] does a lot to amplify the message in a way
that is powerful, Mckesson said. The hard part is that if I dont put it on
Twitter, people literally act like it doesnt exist...No other candidate has to
prove every single thing they do.
Even though Mckesson lost, his candidacy highlighted the constructive
power of digital campaigning. He tweeted on Wednesday, We raised more
money quicker than any local campaign in the country, and almost all of it
digitally. The old money gatekeepers are no more.
LANGUAGE CONTEST WINNERS

Bowdoin students competed in The Chinese Bridge Speech Contest for
University Students in New England held at the Confucius Institute at University of Massachusetts (UMass) Boston on April 19 for the first time in
the competitions six-year history. Bowdoin students ranked highly at the
competition, with Eduardo Jaramillo 17 placing third among advanced level
contestants and Louis Frumer 18 placing second at the beginner level. Jaramillo was also chosen as one of six contestants to be a Cultural Ambassador,
resulting in an all-expense-paid trip to China, taking place in June.
Twenty-one students from the New England area competed across three
different levels of Chinese proficiencybeginner, intermediate and advanced. Students were judged on two performances, one for their speech and
language proficiency through a self-written composition piece and another
in an entertainment category, featuring cultural performances.
Visiting Senior Lecturer in Chinese Language Lisa Ahnert emphasized the
students achievement.
Bowdoin students are always busy, so we only had the chance to rehearse
together three times before the actual competition, said Ahnert. The entertainment piece was especially challenging, as we do not have the resources of
a larger department, such as the Confucian studies center at UMass, in the
form of costumes and music.
Ahnert hopes Bowdoins strong showing will entice more students to take
courses with the Chinese department, and also encourage current Chinese
language students to take part in next years contest.
Bowdoin students also performed very well at this years Japanese Language Contest, held at the Consulate General of Japan in Boston. Of the nine
available essay prizes, Melissa Miura 19, Poy Pholcharee 18, Heidi Cao 16
and Claudia Knox 19 won four. Bowdoin students have now placed first and
second in the essay portion of the competition for three years in a row.

According to a report from the American Association of University Professors

(AAUP), professor salaries at Bowdoin,
not adjusted for inflation, rose by 4 percent for full professors, 4.1 percent for associate professors and 5.9 percent for assistant professors. Within the NESCAC
on average, salaries rose by 3.38 percent,
4.32 percent and 4.64 percent respectively. In comparison, overall salaries across
the country rose by an inflation-adjusted
average of 2.7 percent.
The College determines raises for its

professors using its 4-5-6 policy. This
policy bases raises on the raises given by
other colleges in Bowdoins peer group
specifically, the salary increases based
on the fourth-, fifth- and sixth-highestpaying institutions of the 18 schools. The
Board of Trustees determines this comparison group each year.
Paying full professors an average
of $138,400 per year, Bowdoins ranking in the NESCAC has remains the
fifth-highest paying institution in the
11-school conference.
The AAUP attributes part of the na-
tional salary increases to a change in

how faculty are classifiedmore and
more schools are shifting full-time,
tenure-track positions to part-time
adjuncts, which are not included in
the calculations.
We are in an enviable position at
Bowdoin where that is not a practice that
we engage in, said Dean for Academic
Affairs Jen Scanlon. We do certainly
hire, we have some lecturers, we have
some adjunct faculty, but for the most
part our non-tenure-track faculty are visitors to the College, so they are replacing
faculty members who are on sabbatical.

ist instead for Saturday, said Vice President for Student Organizations and CoHead of the eBoard Emily Serwer 16.
With the money saved from switching from M to Baauer, the eBoard was
able to include the poutine truck on
Friday on the Brunswick Quad and a
photo booth on Saturday. With $3,000,
the eBoard paid for 500 free servings
of poutine.
The student DJ contest, which the
eBoard previously conducted three
years ago, is also a change from last year.
The DJ who received the most student
votes, Nadim Elhage 16, will be the second opening act for Baauer.
We thought that that was a good
model to get the students more involved
in the process because it can seem pretty
behind the scenes, said Serwer.
The first place winner of the Bowdoin Music Collectives annual Battle of
the Bands, Duck Blind, was supposed
to open for Waka Flocka Flame Thursday evening, but instead played before
student DJ Nabil Odulate 16. The third
place Battle of the Bands winner, Pulse,
will perform before Elhage tomorrow. The second place winner, Floating
Goat, could not play due to a scheduling conflict.

Apartments and Saturday on Whittier
Field. Bowdoin Student Government is
sponsoring hot dog stands Friday night
at Harpswell Apartments and Saturday
night at Pine Street Apartments as well
as two pizza deliveries Saturday night.
Preparation for the weekend has not
been easy. After M decided to cancel
her tour at the end of March, the eBoard
scrambled to find a new artist.
It was a little bit stressful at first
when we found out. It was really short
notice, said Co-Head of the eBoard
Chase Hodge 16.
Normally, the eBoard begins searching for Ivies artists in August. After a
long process of working with an agent
to find performers who fit the budget,
have not already been booked and align
with the interests and input of the student body, the eBoard usually submits a
bid in October.
We definitely hit the ground running with [Ms cancellation] even
though we werent at school. And
peopleBoard memberswere really
great about throwing artists out really
quickly, added Serwer. We had a couple rejections before we got a yes, but
were really excited about Baauer.
Hodge also emphasized he is super
excited about Baauer.
The Student Activities Office, which
is in charge of all of the logistics, coordination and setup for the weekend, has
also been preparing for months.
Weve had extensive meetings with
facilities and electrical and the grounds

crew and athletics to talk about all the
minute-by-minute details between
Thursday and Sunday, said Director
of Student Activities Nate Hintze. We
always are tweaking it to make it more
safe, more fun, more logistically friendly for all of Bowdoin staff.
Despite the snow on Tuesday and
Ms cancellation earlier this year, Hintze assured that all plans for the weekend are running on par. Hintze hopes
for a sunny weekend, as rain has forced
concerts indoors the past two years.
The eBoard also organizes logistical
details and helps with setup for Ivies.
To accommodate the needs of the artists, the eBoard assigns two runners
who fulfill the lists, or riders, of hospitality needs each performer requires.
The runners both prepare the artists
needs before they arrive and assist them
while on campus. eBoard members also
help the production company it hired,
Moonlighting, in assembling and disassembling the concert set.
Before the weekend, the eBoard conducted final preparations, such as creating an Ivies Facebook event and sending
an email with the schedule. The eBoard
also sends letters to the residents of
Bowker Street to apologize for any potential noise and to provide a contact for
any complaints.

After graduation, Martinez will
return to Ecuador with hopes to give
direct support by volunteering. Over
the weekend, she spoke with several

Ecuadorian students at Brown University who informed her of their
plans to start a reconstruction project in a small town, inspiring her to
do so at Bowdoin.
After giving direct relief to people,
making sure they have food, medicine
and water, you have to begin to reconstruct their homes that have been
completely destroyed, said Martinez.
So I think Bowdoin students definitely can start a campaign to reconstruct,
at least in a small town.
Furthermore, Martinez hopes
to see something beyond emo-
tional support from the Bowdoin Community.

I just want to see that people care.

Students start financial literacy group to educate campus

BY DAKOTA GRIFFIN
ORIENT STAFF
A new Financial Literacy Group

on campus is looking to help educate
students on managing personal finance, a skill often not acquired from
a Bowdoin education. I can do calculus and talk about classical literature, but I have no clue how to do my
taxes, and I dont know what a 401(k)
is, said the groups founder Jessica
Gluck 18. The group aims to educate
students through a series of speakers
and newsletters.
Glucks inspiration for starting this
group came over the summer when
she was part of a mentorship program
with Bank of America Merrill Lynch,
which deals with corporate and investment banking.
I [asked myself], How am I learning about finance as a career and managing other peoples money when, personally, I dont know about finance for
myself, personal finance? she said.
Gluck had heard her friends and
peers express similar concerns and
decided that creating a club would
help herself and others learn about
personal finance at Bowdoin.
Dean of Student Affairs Tim
Foster praised the groups decision
to tap into an area of concern for
many students.
Seniors identify [that] the thing
they feel least prepared for as they
leave Bowdoin is managing their personal finances, said Foster, referring to the
annual survey sent to graduating seniors.
For some of our students, personal financial management is
something that is a well-developed
skill before they ever set foot on
campus, Foster explained. For
other students, its not something
theyve had to spend a lot of time
thinking about or planning for, and
as they get ready to leave, it becomes
apparent that theyre going to be
managing their own finances.
The groups first event, which was
on April 18 in MacMillan Houses living room, featured alumnus Emily Lao
11. Lao, a financial wellness coach,
spoke to a group of approximately 20
students, covering topics from budgeting to saving to negotiating salaries
with employers and fielding questions
throughout her presentation.
She was really, really engaging
someone who I think would be great
to come back, said Dave Berlin 19,
the groups vice president. Especially for college students, it seems like
something that would be really, really
dry and uninteresting, but she made
it really interesting.
Next semester, the group plans on
holding similar events and will begin
emailing articles explaining aspects
of personal finance to its members.
Gluck and Berlin encourage anyone
interested in joining to contact them.
GRACE MALLETT, THE BOWDOIN ORIENT
LETS TALK MONEY: Jessica Gluck 18, the president and founder of a new financial literacy group on campus, and David Berlin 19, the groups vice president, are

Evening

Guide to Ivies.]
We managed
this year to find
some metaphorical
liquid diamonds in
the proverbial rough
of Hannafords wine
aisle, but because of our
self-imposed $10 budget constraint, we

have also drunk a lot of shit wine. As
a result, we have become viticultural
virtuosos of jazz-like improvisation,
adroitly converting our duds into more
palatable blended beverages. Mimosas, sangria, even the exotic kalimotxo
(red wine and Coca-Cola) are straightshooting arrows in our quiver of taste.
However, our literary forefathers
enlightened us to the potential for
a drinkable Ivies wines that can be
consumed unadulterated and without
concern for grave glassware-induced
injury. In a stunning Shakespearean
betrayal, we sojourned to Bootleggers rather than Han-
naford for our last dive to the Bottom

of the Barrel. The tony wine refrigerator lining the back wall impressed
us immediately. Drawn to the hypnotizing hum of properly preserved
wine, we soon found exactly what we
wanted. Just barely within reach on the
top shelf stood two prismatic 1 L Tetra
Pack containers of Bandit Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay ($7.99). Boxed
wine seemed a natural extension of our
tendency towards hexahedral beverage consumption, as evidenced by our
well-documented Facebook official relationship with Boxed Water.
Twisting open the conveniently
re-sealable plastic lid, we were surprised to find two crisp whites sequestered within the aesthetically
pleasing packaging. We expected
a wine that claims to have been
born to run to be revolutionary
in all aspects, but perhaps the
real act of rebellion was managing to combine extreme mobility with dependably good
flavors. We wholeheartedly endorse
Bandit and its
myriad of varieties as the key to
a safe Dionysian
Ivies experience.
Despite our
longstanding
pecuniary feud
with the editorial staff, we
would be remiss if we did
not thank the
Orient for providing us with an

public platform in which to hone

our wine-based bona fides. Look

DOUBLETHINK
CARLY BERLIN AND TESSA WESTFALL
In this, our last column of the year, we

tinkered with the idea of writing something sentimental: something about the
ephemerality of transitions, and how this
temporal space affords us pause to feel
our feelings. But then, Tessa got snubbed
by Polaris, Carly got the stomach flu and
it snowed. So we decided to go in a different direction.
Looking forward to the weekend that
is sure to be our Bowdoin social peak
(fingers crossed), we couldnt take any
chances. We turned to the hard sciences
for guidance. Respected for millennia by
ancient Mesopotamians, Shakespeare and
Neil DeGrasse Tyson alike, our choice
was clear.
Astrology. We raked through the Bowdoin archives and found pages of zodiac
forecasts dating back to 1865, the year our
fine Ivies tradition commenced. Just as the
Ancient Mayans predicted the worlds end
in 2012, so too does this Star Chart provide promising insights into Ivies 2016.
Read your own, read them all. We
humbly report: Ivies Horoscopes.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
In the event that a traveling performer
who abstains from milk of cow appears on
campus, heed his call to Go Hard in the
MotherF***ing Paint. As the sun in the
sky sets, the sun beneath your feet will appear to enliven your dancing spirit.

HOROSCOPES
Dividing autism into high and

low-functioning individuals
BEN YORK
AN AUTISTICS GUIDE TO AUTISM
DIANA FURUKAWA
The gravitational pull of powerful Pluto
will find you unexpected romance. Ivies
Bae could be for now or could be forever,
but beware the Winds of Finality blowing
from the East: they could strain this cosmic pairing.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
While passion might tickle the pink
cheeks of Taurus, beware, Gemini! Venus is setting for you this week. Instead
of falling in love, you are likely to fall
into the beckoning arms of Somnus,
keeper of sleep. Be sure not to nap in an
unseasonable snow bank.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Searching of sustenance in the form
of cylindrical meat products, venture to
the land beyond the graves. Neptune will
kindly cast an umbra to guide your path.
Leo (July 23-August 22)
Jupiters moons stumble out of alignment for you, Leo. You have spent weeks
agonizing over the perfect Brunswick
Quad ensemble, yet alas! Best laid plans
run amok. Embrace your zodiac lion
heart and rally.
Virgo (August 23-September 22)

Congratulations, Virgo! Juno, queen of
the gods, will spot you losing steam from
her perch on a passing asteroid and leave
you a gift. One bottle of Andre will hold
her Elixir of Stamina for you and you
alone--your only challenge is to find it.
Libra (September 23-October 22)
Allow the balance inherent to your
star sign guide you over the course
of this emotionally fraught weekend.
Step on glass and make a friend. Shed
a tear and have a laugh. Everything
that goes in, must come out again.
This you know.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21)
Lillith, the most powerful energy vortex in the Sun-Earth-Moon system, will
cause illusions to your vision. Scorpio,
you may believe that a tiny Danish hipster
sings before you, but have the strength to
resist this trickiness.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)
In a shocking twist of fate brought on
by mischievous Mercury, your elders
decide to pop in for a surprise visit this

weekend. Be sure to remind them that
you are not only studious, but fun.
Capricorn (December 22-January 19)
Lucky Capricorn will discover an inestimable boon! The convergence of shooting stars in your sign will drop a fanny
pack filled with snacks on your doorstep.
Be grateful, be decisive.
Aquarius (January 20-February 18)
Aquarius, while under the spell of solstice, your hubris gets the better of you.
You commit a bit too hard to dancing
during the guttural Earthsound musical festivities. By moonlight, take care
of yourself.
Pisces (February 19-March 20)
The ever-present swirling of the planets becomes too much for the muddled
Pisces. In attempt to keep up with concentric rotations of the Earth and of the
party, you will accidentally perform a sance. Fortunately, the ghosts of Donald
B. MacMillan and Thomas B. Reed are in
high spirits. Offer them a drink and enjoy
the weekend.
In the parlances of many medical

and educational professionals, as well as
among the majority of autistic and nonautistic individuals who speak and write
about autism, autistic individuals are classified into two broad categories: those of
high functioning and low functioning
individuals. The stereotypical high functioning individual is oftenthough not
alwaysa person who would be considered to have Aspergers Syndrome. They
are socially inept, often extremely quirky
and with an interest in a subject so intense
that they can often talk about nothing else.
The stereotypical low functioning autistic
person is much more obviously disabled.
They may be limited in their ability to
walk, talk or have any real control over
their gross motor functions. Their intelligence will be low, and they will not be
able to take care of themselves: they will,
in short, be disabled.
Any actual discussions or characterizations of autism are of course more nuanced than this, but this portrayal of autism condenses a number of stereotypes
associated with functioning labels (that is,
high functioning and low functioning autism). While autism composes a spectrum
of different behaviors and individuals, it is
often lumped in this way into two categories: quirky and disabled. This imagined
dichotomy is not only inaccurate but also
at times harmful to autistic individuals,
not only because it marginalizes the struggles of those who are well adapted, but
also downplays the true strengths of those
whose difficulties are greater.
First and foremost, functioning labels
do not accurately classify or describe the
autistic experience. Many autistic people
do not fall anywhere near either of the
boxes that functioning labels might place
them in, so these terms do not provide
accurate labels for them. For instance, a
person who often passes for neurotypical, but in certain high stress situations is
very limited in their ability to function.
Or, take the autistic person who is mute
and cant make eye contact, yet writes
masterful poetry and teaches online
classes on writing. Or the autistic person
who must use a wheelchair because they
do not have full motor control, and yet
has an incredible intellect. Functioning
labels leave no room for these individuals, whose spectrum of abilities give autism its full name.
Secondly, and more importantly, the
use of functioning labels reinforces an
assumption about how people should be
that is fundamentally incorrect. That is
that there is a right and a wrong way for a
brain to function. By using terms such as
high functioning and low functioning autism, we make the assumption that there
is a level of functioning that these labels
approach, high functioning being closer
to the ideal, and low functioning being
farther away. However, there is no such
thing as an ideal brain or an ideal way of
being. That is what makes humans so diverse. And diversity is a great thing.

ORIENT STAFF
The recent results of this years Battle

of the Bands and DJ Contest coupled
with the addition of house music producer Baauer has raised student enthusiasm for this years Ivies concerts. Student
band Duck Blind was set to open for
Waka Flocka Flame yesterday, but now
that the show has been rescheduled to
Saturday, they performed before student
DJ Nabil Odulate 16 for the Thursday
night show. Nadim Elhage 16 winner of
the student DJ competition, will perform
on Saturday.
Be ready to have fun, said Elhage. Im
going to play a lot of stuff that youd want
to dance to and then mix in music that you
would want to have fun to. Its engaging.
Student bands Duck Blind, Pulse,
Gotta Focus, Floating Goat and Treefarm competed in the annual competition to open for Ivies 2016. Duck Blind,
featuring Harrison Carmichael 17 on
lead guitar, Kyle Losardo 17 on rhythm
guitar, vocals by Mike Paul 17, Sam Azbel 18 on bass and Stephen Melgar 16
on drums, claimed victory and the op-
portunity to play during Ivies.

The second place finisher was unable
to perform at Ivies, so Pulse, which got
third place, will play before Elhages set
on Saturday.
Duck Blind placed second in the
competition last year and opened for
the Saturday performers White Panda
and Logic.
It was cool opening for Logic last year
[in William Farley Field House], but Im
excited to be playing in Smith which I
think will be a more fun environment to
be playing in, said Carmichael.
Judged by Associate Professor of
Music Vineet Shende, Senior Lecturer
in Music Frank Mauceri and President
Clayton Rose, Azbel described how different it was to appeal to the judges as opposed to playing just for students.
We were kind of focusing on what
the judges wanted to hear as opposed to
what the students wanted to hear, said
Azbel. Were usually not nervous for
shows, but we were definitely a little bit
nervous about Battle of the Bands because we were playing for definitely some
really knowledgeable judges.
The feedback you get from the judges
is also just great, added Paul. They tell

you all about the technical things youre
doing right and wrong.
Carmichael said the band has been
improving over the last year.
Weve just been making a lot of time
for practicing this past year, said Carmichael. I think weve just been very conscious about our song choice and making
sure we have songs down that we really
enjoy playing.
Elhage, who has been DJing since his
first year at Bowdoin, said his style has
progressed to include fewer mainstream
artists and more unexpected samples.
I shy away from mainstream music
because I feel like it loses the artistic touch
that the music I listen to has, Elhage said.
I want to stick to the style that [Baauer]
has. I dont want to be too radically different but have some surprises in there.
Similarly, Duck Band has shifted from
playing country music and has been
finding a slightly different sound.
Were exploring our differences musically, said Paul. Id say we are all so
different in the genres that we like, so we
were kind of delving deeper into figuring
out what we want to play.
In a society still dominated by heteronormative outlooks and assumptions, the

relationship issues that non-straight people go through can often be overlooked.
However, Rose and Psyche, a one-act
play written by Maddie Lemal-Brown 18,
depicts some of the problems that queer
students can encounter as they navigate
relationships and their families. LemalBrowns play won Masque and Gowns
One-Act Festival on April 8.
Lemal-Brown wrote Rose and Psyche
over the course of about two weeks in
February. It is about Sam and Hannah, a
lesbian couple attending a college similar
to Bowdoin. The play picks up a few days
before Valentines Day when Sams very
religious and traditional parents pay her a
surprise visit. As a result, Sam decides that
she wants to come out to her parents and
introduce them to her girlfriend.
The play focuses on ones struggles
to successfully come out and the consequences that arise from being true to
oneself. Lemal-Brown explained that her
work explores the difficulties in deciding
whether it is best to risk losing the people
that you love if they fail to accept you for
who you are or neglect to accept your
own self.
Theres my own story, my friends
stories and just general experiences that
weve had. It made me really think about
the spectrum of acceptance that we receive for being non-straight, she said.
Before picking up creative writing again
at the start of this year, Lemal-Brown had
not written creatively since she was in
high school.
Upon seeing a poster for the festival
in Thorne Hall, she decided that writing
and submitting a one-act play was a feasible challenge to set for herself. Her play
went on to be one of the few selected and
was assigned a director, James Jelin 16,
and actors.
Lemal-Brown was excited to be able to
watch her play come to life.
You get a huge adrenaline rush, said
Lemal-Brown. Its...a lot of things you will
never [expect to] see outside of your own
room or your own laptop, and to see it as
a fully formed experience was really, really
cool, she said. Being in the room with
people who knew the story I was telling a
lot better than most people just gave a lot
of weight and responsibility to the words.
It made me feel like I had a lot of power
that I had to make sure I was careful with.
Once her play became a reality, even
Lemal-Brown acknowledged certain aspects that she had not previously noticed.
It didnt occur to me how educational
it was until I saw it, she said. It does shed
light on issues that a lot of Bowdoin students dont have to think about or have
never come across. Im really happy that
the play is doing something to give more
visibility to queer students.
From page to screen: Game of Thrones and the adaption process

TREVOR MURRAY
NETFLIX AND STRESS
I can guarantee that if you are a fan

of Game of Thrones, you know at least
one person who constantly compares
the show to the books it is based on. Unfortunately for my show-only friends, I
am that person, arguably more obnoxious because I binged all five books after
watching the last season. To those who are
endlessly frustrated by the incessant Well
in the BOOKS, I extend an apology.
A Song of Ice and Fire is finely-crafted,
introspective and an incredibly engaging narrative, and because the novels are
of obscene length, its easy for the reader
to become invested in the story. But that
doesnt mean that Game of Thrones is
an unengaging story, or even that its a bad
adaptation. Its an excellent TV show with
quality writing, production and acting.
The adaptation process itself is why critique is so readily available.
The novel is a purely conceptual me-
dium. All imagery and perception from

reading happens within the confines of
the consciousness. This means readers can
get inside the heads of characters without
overt voice-overs. One of the most gripping facets of A Song of Ice and Fire is
the internal dialogue of the chapter characters. Each chapter is told from the point
of view of a different set of protagonists,
and much of the chapter is their internal
narrative and perspective. Its a fascinating way of understanding the implication
of these massively dramatic events on a
personal scale, and it allows for some of
the most compelling characterization Ive
ever read.
Game of Thrones has to tell a different kind of story, as film is a visual experience. The novels its based off of thrive not
just on internal narrative but also rich exposition and history. Its difficult to make
these things visually compelling, which
the show pretty much has to be if its going be an entertaining filmic experience.
Thrones justifiably sacrifices much of the
lore in the literature in favor of spectacle
and combat. In doing this, the show maxi-
SOPHIE WASHINGTON
mizes its visual pleasure; the costuming is

extravagant, the fight scenes are brutally
choreographed and environments are
breathtaking. It also succeeds in adapting
the books compelling dialogue and characterization, helped along by incredible
casting. Picking and choosing is always
a tough way to adapt, but smart choices
make Game of Thrones something fans
both fresh and old can enjoy.
As a series and not a film, Thrones also

has a huge advantage in the adaptation
process. One of the largest obstacles standing in the path of the adaptation process is
length. Novels are long and meant to be
tackled over time. Movies are a one-time,
90-to-200-minute commitment. How do
you fit 600 pages of intricate storytelling
into a two-hour experience? The short answer is that you cant, and you just have to
show the best possible filmic narrative in

those two hours. This often ends up with
fans of the original material being disappointed in whatever version of the book
ended up on the screen. The series is a
simple solution to this problemby quintupling the time you have to work with,
you can track much more of a novels plot.
Subsequently, the more time audiences
spend with characters, the more invested
in and knowledgeable of these characters
they will be. This also makes television a
prime candidate for adapting characterrich novels.
As a fan of both works, it is simultaneously difficult and imperative to
refrain from comparison. They are two
separate entities, and at this point, their
narratives are becoming so far diverged
that its much more fun to embrace the
stories than to try and hold one to the
standards of the other. Sometimes I may
be frustrated with the show killing off a
cool book character who never got his
or her due, but at the end of the day, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are still putting out the best fantasy on television.

SPORTS
Bowdoin hosts, takes second

place at Robocup US Open
BY ANJULEE BHALLA
ORIENT STAFF
An impressive performance by
the Bowdoin RoboCup team last
weekend earned them a second place
finish at the U.S. Open. They look
to build off of this success as they
prepare for the World Championships, which will be held in Germany
this June.
The Northern Bites are a part of
the Standard Platform League (SPL),
in which teams compete using five
humanoid robots on small, indoor
fields. Because all of the teams use
practically identical robots that operate completely autonomously, each
teams strengths are based almost entirely on software.
The goal is by 2050 that a RoboCup team will play the FIFA World
Champions using pure human rules
in a regular game of soccer, said
Faculty Adviser and Professor of

Computer Science Eric Chown. So
every year we make the rules a little bit more like our regular soccer
rulesthe field gets bigger, we have
more robots, eventually were going
to move outdoors.
These changes present daunting
challenges each year to the teams,
forcing them to adapt their code and
approach to the sport to accommodate the new rules.
This year the game changed from
using a small orange ball to a regular
black and white soccer ball. Previously the ball was usually the only
orange item on the field, allowing
many teams to identify it by its color. However, with various black and
white objects surrounding the robots, from the robots themselves to
goal posts and field lines, color becomes a much less reliable indicator.
Thus for many teams, altering their
ball detection techniques was the

biggest challenge of this season.
Weve seen a lot of teams have
trouble detecting the ball, said aptain Megan Maher 16. Actually
one of the reasons that the winning
team, UT Austin Villa, won is because they had such a great ball
detection method, so they wouldnt
lose it that often.
While the team ultimately fell to
a very strong University of Texas
team in the championship match,
their progression from a shaky 0-0
start to a 2-0 win against University of Miami in the semifinals made
the weekend a definite success for
the program.
We started from a position this
weekend where it didnt seem like we
could do anything and by the end of
the weekend we had finished in sec-

her singles match, which brought the

Polar Bears within one win of defeating Williams for the first time. Chengs
win clinched the victory and also took
pressure off of Likhanskaia, which allowed her to put the match further out
of reach.
I think the talent levels in almost
of all of the matches were very even,
Likhanskaia said. We just willed ourselves to the win.
Another factor that drove the team to
its victory over the Ephs was the enthusiasm of the large crowd in attendance,
many of whom were alumni returning
for reunion weekend. Bowdoin fed off
this energy and remained resilient even
when Williams began to chip away at
the Polar Bears lead.
The fact [that it was] during reunion weekend was amazing, Likhanskaia said. We had a huge crowd and
all of these alums cheering which really
helped motivate everybody right until
the end.
Still, the victory was far from a sure
bet after Bowdoins disappointing performances the weekend before. The Polar Bears lost to NESCAC rival Middlebury 7-2 and top-ranked Emory 8-1.
Following the defeats, Bowdoin fell to
11-4 on the season.
We regrouped after the losses to
Middlebury and Emory. We all sat
down and had a long talk with each oth-
er, Likhanskaia said. I think that talk

really helped put us in the right mindset
on SaturdayEveryone was playing for
each other.
Though the victory against the Ephs
was an upset, the gap between Bowdoin
and Williams has been narrowing in recent seasons. Two years ago, the Polar
Bears lost 7-2, and last year, they lost by
only one match in the regular season.
Weve definitely been progressively
gaining on Williams over the past couple of years, Likhanskaia said. So far,
this has been our best performance as a
team, and I think weve kept on improving throughout the season to get to this
point.
I cant speak for everyone on the
team, but I think this is probably the
most satisfying win that Ive had at
Bowdoin, she continued. The win reminded us how good we are this year,
and it really gave us our confidence
back.
The team got an extra day off to savor
the big win, but they will face a difficult
Tufts team on the road this weekend.
We need to remain aware that Tufts
is better this year, and we should expect
a hard match, Likhanskaia said.
Bowdoin has won its last four contests against the Jumbos, but this year,
Tufts is much improved.
The team will return to action against
Tufts at 10 a.m. on Saturday.
The Polar Bears will also have to prepare for the NESCAC playoffs, which
start next weekend.

Mens lacrosse enters NESCAC playoffs with high hopes

BY JULIA OROURKE
ORIENT STAFF
The Bowdoin mens lacrosse team

(11-4, 7-3 NESCAC) earned the no. 3
seed in the NESCAC tournament after
losing to Tufts (13-2, 9-1 NESCAC)
20-10 in its final regular season game
on Wednesday. The team has drastically improved since last season, when
they finished second to last in the NESCAC with a 2-8 conference record and
3-12 overall.
According to Captain Peter Reuter
16, this exciting change speaks volumes to the school.
However, after the teams nine game
winning streak, they appear to have
stumbled a little bit in recent games.
Bowdoin will enter the playoffs having
lost three of its last five.
The result against Tufts is probably the most concerning, though. The
teams other two recent lossesagainst
Keene State and Wesleyanwere both
by only one goal.
Captain Adam FitzGerald 16 explained that the loss to Wesleyan was
actually encouraging.
We were down four goals with maybe three to four minutes left in the game,
and then we were able to claw back and
take it to overtime, said FitzGerald.
Although Wesleyan took the win in
the end, Bowdoin took it in stride. According to Reuter, the majority of the
teams recent games against Wesleyan
have gone into overtime, making it a
consistently exciting matchup for the
Polar Bears.
Theyre always kind of a fun team to
play, FitzGerald said. We always have
the best games against them.
The teams recent success can be attributed to both the players health and
focus on individual improvement.
With everyone focused on bettering
their own game, the team has been able
to improve its results substantially.
We dont really rely on one or two
guys, said FitzGerald. Everyones
contributing.
Reuter and Head Coach Jason Archbell pointed to goalie Peter Mumford
17 as a key player this season. According to Reuter, Mumfords role as the
backbone of the defense has caused a
positive chain reaction, impacting all
areas of the team. In addition, midfielder Sam Carlin 19 has been consistent in
winning face-offs for the team.
Just being able to have more possessions has really been the key for success, said FitzGerald.
In addition to goalkeeping and faceoffs, the team has made other improvements on both the offensive and defensive ends.
Were defending a lot better than
we were before which has been a huge
emphasis for us, said Archbell. And on
the offensive end, we put a lot of onus
on shooting better. Our shooting percentage has increased, and were getting
a lot more high percentage shots closer
to the goal.
According to Reuter and Archbell,
the sophomore class as a whole has
played a huge role in the teams success.
Many of the sophomores gained experience by starting all of last year. Furthermore, they have been working hard to
better themselves.
They have really good practice
work ethics, said Archbell. I think
that when you have talent thats working really hard, youre going to be
pretty good.
The team has been healthy this season, with only a few minor injuries.
FitzGerald credits off-season preparation and the work of the training staff
for this strength.
Despite the immense growth of the
team, Archbell believes there is still
room for improvement going into the
NESCAC playoffs.
Weve probably had too many turnovers and not enough ground balls,
said Archbell. Certainly, its starting to
come together.

STEPPING UP FOR THE SENIORS: Emma Beecher 16 avoids Wheaton College

defenders during Bowdoins 16-3 drubbing of the Thunder on Senior Day last Saturday. The
win was Bowdoins last of the year, as the teams season ended on Wednesday with a 17-8
defeat at the hands of Tufts.
The Bowdoin womens lacrosse team

(7-8, 2-8 NESCAC) failed to qualify for
NESCAC tournament play for the first
time since 2009 after falling to Tufts (9-6,
5-5 NESCAC) 17-8 in the teams final regular season game on Wednesday. Its only
the second time that Bowdoin will miss
the tournament in the NESCACs fifteen
year history.
Going into Wednesday night, Bowdoin
needed a win and a Williams loss (5-10,
2-8 NESCAC) to surpass the Ephs in the
NESCAC and grab the eighth and final
spot in the tournament. Though Williams
lost to Middlebury (14-1, 9-1 NESCAC)
in overtime, the Polar Bears were unable
to capitalize on their opportunity.
Bowdoin was on its heels from the
start, conceding the first five goals of the
game. The teams entered the locker room
at the half with a 12-2 Tufts advantage.
Though it is a disappointing end to
the season, it is worth noting that the
NESCAC is extremely competitive this
year, with seven teams ranked in the top
20 nationwide.
Every NESCAC game is a battle, said
head coach Liz Grote. It makes it exciting every day you know you need to
bring your best game.

Despite little success in conference play,
the team has produced several positive results down the stretch after a difficult start
to the season. The Polar Bears two conference wins both came at home earlier this
month. The first was a back-and-forth
14-12 game against Connecticut College
on April 9 and the second was an equally
thrilling 11-10 victory over Wesleyan on
April 16.
The team also brought the intensity on
Senior Day this past Saturday, as Bowdoin
crushed Wheaton College 16-3 for of its
most convincing wins of the seasons.
The win against Wheaton this weekend was an absolute, complete game,
said Grote. That was satisfying, to see the
efforts that the team put in that week in
practice to really pay off and head into the
Tufts game on Wednesday.
Captain Sophie Janes 16 says that the
team had recently been working most on
getting the basics downpassing, catching, ensuring solid 1-v-1 defense, making
the right cuts and seeing open space
rather than players individually working
to fulfill their own goals.
Janes also noted that the 12-9 loss to
Trinity on April 2 was a key game in helping develop the team towards the end of
the season.
We didnt beat Trinity, but we played

very well against them, said Janes. I
think that was kind of the turning point
in our season, in regaining confidence,
knowing we can really challenge other
very strong teams.
Unfortunately, the women have had
many injuries throughout the season.
However, this has given the first years
and younger players the opportunity to
step up into those roles. Janes noted a key
first year has been Natalie Rudin 19 in
the midfield, who has risen to the occasion tremendously.
In addition, captains Emma Beecher
16, Lindsay Picard 16, Megan OConnor
16 and Janes have been some of the teams
most consistent performers. Janes also
credited Mettler Growney 17 on attack
for always bringing the intensity and energy needed and Kayli Weiss 18 and Erin
Morrissey 19 for staying strong in goal.
I would say our attack as a unit has
been one of the most consistent parts of
the gamethe pressure that our attack
puts on the other team when we dont
have the ball, said Grote.
One of the teams main goals recently
was increasing its shooting percentage,
and it has had success in this category of
late. Against Wheaton, for example, Bowdoin scored 16 goals on 29 shots.

GETTING PHYSICAL: A Bowdoin robot collapses to the ground following a collision with
a UT Austin robot during the Robocup US Open in Watson Arena this weekend. Many of the games in
the tournament were low scoring, as the robots had trouble seeing the black and white ball.
ROBOCUP
ond place, said Chown. The first

half of the championship game was
a legitimately great game. Our goalie
had been spectacular, hed made a
couple of really great saves and our
defense was really solid, we just
werent getting any offense.
We definitely performed a lot
better in our last game than in our
first game, said captain Nicole Morin 16. Which is good for us because it means we were really great
at improving stuff in between games
and identifying our weaknesses,
which is what the U.S. Open is all
about, finding where we need to
grow for this summer.
Looking ahead, the league is constantly pushing itself to achieve the
seemingly impossible.
When I was in graduate school,
to get a robot to walk on two legs
was almost unheard of and it certainly would involve several Ph.D.s,
said Chown. Now our robots walk,
and if were going to continue to
move forward towards real soc-
cer, we need robots that can run.

Its hard to imagine right now since
there are I think two robots in the
world that have ever run and theyve
been the result of millions of dollars
of research.
The walk engines that control most
of the robots are just one example
of the numerous technological advancements RoboCup has prompted
over the years. In the programs 11year history, Bowdoin has stepped
up to these challenges at every point,
even as one of the only completely
undergraduate teams and one of the
smallest schools in the SPL.
Bowdoin students are the second
best team in the United States right
now. The biggest thing for me is
showing Bowdoin students and also
people at other schools that our students are capable of anything, said
Chown. You give them an opportunity, and they will succeed at the
same level as these graduate students
from around the world whove had
more training and have more time to
work on this and everything else. To
me, thats the pinnacle of the RoboCup experience.

gained experience last year, the team is
a young one overall and is still learning.
Going forward, the Polar Bears plan
on preparing for the tough NESCAC
competition they will face in the playoffs. Although the team will consider
the xs and os to prepare, the players will put more emphasis on making
sure the team is doing everything it can
to improve.
Were trying to look inward and
focus on what we need to do to get
better, and hopefully thats enough to
overcome whatever opponent we have,

said FitzGerald.
The team is in a good position heading into the playoffs. Reuter noted that
the general improvement of the team
has been rewarding for the players
to see.
Theres just a sense of excitement
thats kind of flowing throughout the
team right now, said Reuter. I really do
think we have a special group of guys
and a special bond thats been created
this year.
Bowdoin will play its first home
playoff game since 2012 tomorrow at
1:00 P.M against Wesleyan.
OPINION
The sun is shining, the weather is (arguably) nice, the quad is sparkling green after a brief snowy coating and Randy Nichols is filling his polar bear water bottle
and gearing up for a big weekend. Its Ivies, baby.
One of the biggest jumps was in sense of responsibility to intervene if a friend

was too intoxicated and might hook up with someone. Whereas in 2012, only
49 percent of students reported that they would intervene, in 2015, 67 percent
of Bowdoin students claimed that they would get involved. This increase is encouraging, especially considering the widening of conversations that Bowdoin
has been having about sexual assault. It correlates to the increase in Bystander
Intervention trainings through Associate Director of Health Promotion Whitney Hogan, which every upper-class student leader is required to participate in.
The survey asked about sense of responsibility, and the results show that the
majority of Bowdoin students feel very responsible to step in in a variety of
potentially dangerous situations involving alcohol. Now, its Ivies! While some
of Randy Nichols best memories of Bowdoin happened during Ivieswere
very excited for our pictures with you, Randyits also the time of year when we
hear most from Randy about drug and alcohol safety. We receive Survivies and
other protocol emails throughout the week, and Security is present all throughout the weekend. Many Bowdoin students will be choosing to imbibe in some
way this weekend, and some of the scenarios presented in the survey may come
up. This weekend offers a great chance to put these values into practice and step
up when these situations occur in real life. The majority of Bowdoin students
claim to feel responsible to do so, and now is the time to make good on those
promises.
Ivies can be super fun. We can nap, we can laugh, we can cry and we can nap.
And, its a time to, thankfully, be ourselves; our attitudes and sense of responsibility have improved greatly, and its important to keep it that way.
This editorial represents the majority view of the Bowdoin Orients editorial
board, which is comprised of Julian Andrews, Jono Gruber, Meg Robbins and

How to have a feminist Ivies
Put it into practice
This fall, the 2015 NESCAC Alcohol and Drug Survey results were released, revealing Bowdoin students attitudes on Bowdoins alcohol policies and bystander intervention. The survey was first conducted in 2012, and in the three years
since then, Bowdoin students have shown improvements in their self-reported
sense of responsibility to intervene in difficult situations involving intoxicated
friends. Bowdoin students have increased 10 percentage points across the board
in terms of intervening in the case of a friend driving drunk, vomiting, passing
out, harassing others, threatening students, threatening to injure their self, embarrassing their self or drinking to escape emotions.

through your post-Brunswick

Quad hangover. Maybe drink
tea. (Just kiddingyou should
drink a Miller High Life.)
Goddess worship
Feminism isnt about Ivies. Obviously.

Feminism is a collective movement to end
sexist oppression. But the Orient needed
more content this week, and I wanted to
write about Ivies.
Everything I know about Ivies I
learned as a baby. A raspberry-Pinnacledrinking, crop-top-wearing baby. I was
abroad in Prague last spring where I
learned to drink like a grown up. Dont
worry though, I got back to Bowdoin and
promptly forgot. Cheers!
It snowed on Tuesday.
Thats fucked up. Weve all got
to play our cards right with
Mother Nature for the concert
on Saturday. Get your coven
together and say a little prayer
to the goddesses for a warm,
dry Ivies. Please. Baauer will be
better if we have to watch him
through sunglassestrust me.
Friendly competition between friends
Fiber Craft
Two of my friends and I are doing a

personal Miller High Life case race. The
rules are simple: 10 days, 30 beers each.
We tell this to men, and they laugh. We
can succeed in a mans world, we retort
and shotgun 12 ounces of lukewarm piss
water to prove it.
Get creative with your consumption.
Make your Annies Mac and Cheese
with beer instead of milk. Word on the
street is that its actually not that bad.
Make a beer mimosa. Pour for a round
of pong. Slip your half-drunk cans to
obliging strangers. But no matter what,
dont give up.
Celebrate the feminized and marginalized practice of craft. For example, I

knitted myself a crop top. Email me if you
want the pattern. Its probably too late to
knit one now, and your fine motor skills
deteriorated days ago, but its never too
early to start thinking about next year.
There are other ways to get crafty: tie
dye your socks, rip up a t-shirt, bedazzle a
water bottle. If youre lucky, your craft can
also serve as a beer-soaked souvenir!
Witchcraft
Start referring to your friends as your
coven. Host a sance. Burn incense. Summon spirits. This can be a restorative
activity for Friday evening as you claw
Bangin
Keep all that good stuff you
learned during Consent Week in
mind. Smashed and hooking up is
not always the safest combo. The best
Ivies Bae is a communicative Ivies
Bae. And lets be real, youre probably
going to feel so shitty that you just
want to snuggle anyways.

Feminist tracks for the pre- or
post-game:
1. Cant Get Enough Of Myself by
Santigold. All I wanna do is what I do
well. For me, thats knitting and drinking
Miller High Life.
2. Love Myself by Hailee Steinfeld.
This song is about female masturbation.
3. Townie by Mitski. I am not
gonna be what my daddy want me to
be. Im gonna be what my body wants
me to be. I can do her one better. Neither my daddy nor my body wanted
me to drink 30 Miller High Lifes in the
past week. I showed them.
4. Bottoms Up by Keke Palmer. Did
you know she released this song in 2007,
the same year she starred in the Disney
Channel original movie Jump In!? 2007
was also the year I got my braces off. Bottoms up! (Miller High Life).

Signifying something: connecting to Bowdoin through this column

JESSE ORTIZ
SIGNIFYING NOTHING
Lifes but a walking shadow, a
poor player/That struts and frets
his hour upon the stage/And then is
heard no more. It is a tale/Told by an
idiot, full of sound and fury,/Signifying nothing (Macbeth 5.5.24-28).
It may have been reckless, over the
past couple of years, to use this column
as a public diary. Through the Orient, Ive
grappled with my body image, my gender
identity and my ambivalent relationship
with Christmas. Ive written articles that
pissed off people close to me and made
me reassess my own biases. I also humblebragged about my GPA, attacked the
entire athletic department and referred to
printers as the sphincter of digital space,
(I stand by all three of those articles).
In David Foster Wallaces short story

Signifying Nothing, the narrator describes a childhood memory that reemerges in his young adulthood. He says,
I suddenly get this memory of my father
waggling his dick in my face one time
when I was a little kid. If you know me
well at all, theres probably some Freudian
shit you can say about that, *shrug*.
Point is, Signifying Nothing means
a lot to me. I first submitted to the Orient in response to Eliot Taft 15s article
about digital maps. Since then, writing
for this paper has helped me navigate the
fraught topography of Bowdoin College.
Of course, these writerly travails never
lack in bad puns.
As a hardcore introvert, I will always
value how this column has connected me
to the Bowdoin community. I still havent
mastered the Bowdoin Hello (try saying
hi to me in H-L after 10 p.m.), but writing in the Orient has made me feel like a
valued part of this college.

In 10th grade, my English teacher told
me that reading is one of the most social
things a person can do. This didnt make
any sense to me at the time, and it took me
years to even understand what she was
saying. But now, after a four-year-long
liberal arts brainwash, Ive come to understand the social value of written words.
To quote another English teacher (who
may have said this grasping a copy of Walt
Whitman, Emily Dickinson or Moby
Dick), This is how you love people.
So this, my final column, is dedicated
to you. To my friends, whove graciously
complimented (and held their tongues
about) my writing. To my mother, who
dutifully reads every one of my columns
as soon as possible. To the faculty and
staff who surprised me by mentioning the
Orient. To the editors (s/o to Sam Chase)
who let me publish pretty much whatever I want. I also dedicate this column
Bowdoin Orient
to everyone else: those sports teams who

dominate the gym basement, the anonymous transphobic Orient commenters,
the center-left democrats (read: neoliberals) who care more about capitalism than
social progress. All of you are as much a
part of me as we are a part of Bowdoin.
Whether I like it or not, I spent four
formative years in this place. (Less one
semester in Bath, England, a city
best described as like the worlds
worst cruise ship).
The best group Ive joined at Bowdoin
is called Radical Alternatives to Capitalism (RAC). This club valued inclusivity
and diversity like no other place Ive been
and Ive often left our meetings with a profound love for humanity.
Right now, RAC is mostly seniors,
and its future is uncertain. But thats OK.
Several years ago, Bowdoin had a Social
Democrats club, which was guided by
some of the same ideals as RAC. Now
that Bernie Sanders is running for president, democratic socialism has entered
the American mainstream, but true anticapitalism remains taboo.
History tends to overlook radical
thought. This is built into the structure
of radicalismHistory is written by the
victors (Walter Benjamin) and not the
failed subversives. But radicalism has a
precedent. From anti-Vietnam protests to
apartheid boycotts and fossil fuel divestment, college students have resisted social
norms to create genuine change.
During my time in college, I could have
been a lot more involved in student activism. But this column has been one of my
favorite ways to process my ideas and take
part in conversations. Writing this has
made me who I am. And, once again, this
couldnt have happened without all of you.
To misquote Walt Whitmans Song of
Myself, I am vast. I contain multitudes.
Thanks for nothing.
