Description
An account of the resource
In December 2017, Liz Dunn ’18 posted a public Facebook post that named several male Middlebury students as perpetrators of various forms of sexual misconduct. The List was also put up in prominent locations around campus. The list grew to over 30 students as people submitted more names to Dunn throughout the day. The men were accused of violations such as “[being] emotionally manipulative,” “sexual harassment,” and “[being a] serial rapist.” The Dean of Faculty and Dean of Students wrote to the entire Middlebury College community; the email acknowledged the post, reviewed resources for people experiencing sexual violence, and linked to the Middlebury Respect for Persons Policy and Anti-Harassment/Discrimination Policy. Within two days, Facebook had removed the post. Referred to as “The List,” a shortened version of Dunn’s title “List of Men to Avoid,” Dunn’s post received press coverage in publications ranging from Babe.net (known for publishing Aziz Ansari’s accuser’s account) and Seven Days. In an interview with Seven Days, Dunn said that they met with a campus judicial officer who requested the names and contact information of the people who had contacted Dunn with reports of sexual misconduct. Dunn refused. After returning from winter break (Dunn posted The List during finals week), the judicial officers informed them that they were facing official college discipline for violating college policy. In the spring, they received their final sanction of official college discipline, a letter that would remain in their file.

The Sexual and Relationship Respect Committee (SRR) was founded in 2015 by Maddie Orcutt ‘16, Sherielle Crosby ‘16, Katie Preston ‘17, and Michelle Peng ‘15, who were all heavily engaged in It Happens Here. After attending a conference at Amherst College and learning of a similar position, these students worked to pass a bill in our SGA Senate that added the Director of Sexual and Relationship Respect position to Middlebury’s SGA cabinet. This bill was passed in the Spring of 2015 and Maddie Orcutt assumed the first directorship position. Two years later, during the 2017-2018 academic year, SRR became an ad hoc committee, meaning that it included committee members in addition to directors for the first time. The SRR committee represents the sexual and relationship respect concerns of the student body when it comes to matters involving the SGA or administration. Most prominently, SRR has engaged in activism regarding freshman orientation consent education, free access to safe sex supplies and menstutal products, and a Complcity Project in which students were asked to recognize and challenge their complicity in Middlebury’s culture of sexual assault. See the SRR collection to learn more about these SRR projects and many others.

In the 2019-2020 academic year, SRR attempted to work with the administration to implement anti-sexual assault consent workshops for current students. This document was made by SRR to express the type of workshops that they wanted, and why the current programming options needed to change. SRR also made a mock consent workshop as an example of what they wanted for future programming. Despite SRR's work and buy-in from various student groups, no workshops were implemented for current students during that year.

Description
An account of the resource
"The Vagina Monologues" is an episodic play first performed in 1996 and written by Eve Ensler, who graduated Middlebury College in 1975. The play explores a multitude of experiences all centering around the vagina: sex work, consensual and nonconsensual sexual experiences, menstruation, pubic hair, gender-based slurs, reproduction, etc. from the perspectives of women with varying ages, races, and sexualities among other things. In 1998 Ensler started a non-profit movement called “V-Day” for which groups around the world perform "The Vagina Monologues" during February every year, and donate all their profits to organizations that work to end violence against women and girls. After the original V-Day on February 14, 1998, a small group of students from different colleges, including Middlebury student Malaya Rivera-Drew ‘1999, went to New York to meet with Eve Ensler with the goal of bringing a V-Day performance to their schools the following February. Rivera-Drew directed the first ever performance of "The Vagina Monologues" at Middlebury, which took place in Wilson Hall on February 14, 1999 in front of a standing room only audience. The play has been consistently performed by Middlebury students ever since. Since 2016, Middlebury students have continually written new monologues and adapted a version of the play that they refer to as "Beyond the Vagina Monologues." One of the purposes of this adapted version is to include more modern and expansive definitions of womxnhood, feminism, and femininity.
