Introducing the Geoffrey Canada Scholars
First-year student Ryan Britt, a member of the class of 2022, decided to give up his last pre-college summer at home in Ohio to arrive at Bowdoin two months before the fall semester begins. He came on July 7, with fourteen other students, to join the inaugural Geoffrey Canada Scholars program.
I wanted to get here early, to get that transition, he said recently, adding that it was a a bit of a departure for him to receive any kind of support. To this point, I've done a lot for myself, he said.
A month in, he is astonished: I'm not used to having this much opportunity, he said.
The Geoffrey Canada Scholars program is just one piece of THRIVE, a new initiative funded by Netflix CEO and co-founder Reed Hastings ’83, to transform the Bowdoin experience for students who are the first in their families to go to college, who come from low-income backgrounds, or who are from groups traditionally underrepresented at the College. The scholars begin their college career in early July, diving into an intensive six-week summer program to prepare them to succeed, to become campus leaders, to flourish in all ways at Bowdoin.
This year's Geoffrey Canada Scholars come from all over the United States and the world — including two from Maine and one from Rwanda. In the six weeks leading up to orientation for all first-year students, which begins August 20, they take three classes: quantitative reasoning/visual arts, writing and rhetoric, and the science of learning. They meet many staff and faculty at Bowdoin, from librarians to deans. They explore Brunswick and the region. And they get to know one another and the College.

Solar Energy at Bowdoin College
Bowdoin's 1.2 megawatt solar power complex includes approximately 4,420 solar panels at four major installations: rooftop systems on Farley Field House, the Sidney J. Watson Arena, and Greason Pool, along with a 654-kW ground-mount installation on three acres owned by the college at the former Navy base. SolarCity installed an additional 12-kW system on the new residence hall at 52 Harpswell Road in December of 2014.
More than six times the size of the next largest existing solar installation in Maine, this system will provide about 8% of the College’s electricity. The project is acollaboration between Bowdoin and SolarCity, the nation’s number-one solar power provider. Under the agreement, SolarCity, which financed and built the system, will own and maintain the solar installations on college property, and Bowdoin will purchase all generated power.

MGH - Brunswick, Maine - Part 2
Maine Ghost Hunters team leads Tony and Kat conducted a private client investigation in a Brunswick, Maine residence constructed in the 1750's.
The home has been in the same family for a large number of years and through multiple generations, and remains in family hands today.
Accounts of paranormal activity have been reported by numerous friends and family members over the years. Among the mix are; hearing walking, running of a small child, physical contact, sensations of being watched, seeing full bodied apparitions, movement of physical objects in plain sight.
Probably one of the more fascinating aspects of reported activity, from the standpoint of the investigation team, would be the accounts of children - over generations - having contact with a sad/crying little girl. It's unknown who this little girl is, for certain, but the family has made an educated guess as to her name, as you can see in the video.

'Bowdoin Votes' Launches Big Effort to Register Students
Bowdoin Votes, a nonpartisan get-out-the-vote effort on campus, didn't waste any time getting started this year.
As first-year students were arriving on campus Tuesday morning, Archer Thomas ’21 and Will Parker ’20 were parked at a table outside, wearing an Uncle Sam top hat and a Statue of Liberty visor, respectively, to help first-years — most of them first-time voters — register to vote.
We're prepared to register students in any of the fifty states, and set them up with absentee ballot requests so they can get the ballots here. And we can help them with information on how to send them in, Thomas explained.
Thomas is helping to organize Bowdoin Votes this year with Andrew Lardie, the McKeen Center for the Common Good's associate director for service and leadership.
Lardie launched Bowdoin Votes in 2016, and is ramping up outreach this year in advance of the midterm elections. He's teaching volunteer students to register new voters in any state, as well as be able to direct their peers to information about candidates and ballot questions.
Bowdoin Votes volunteers will regularly roll out the votemobile, as their information table is nicknamed, to campus events throughout the fall, including Greenstock Festival, campus talks, and Common Good Day, which is a campus-wide day of volunteering in the local community. On election day, the College will run vans every fifteen minutes to the Brunswick polls, leaving from the Moulton Union circle.
Right now there is a national awakening that colleges have a responsibility to do more about civic engagement and voting, Lardie said. This summer, he attended the third annual Civic Learning and Democratic Engagement conference, offered by the American Association of State College and Universities, to gather and share ideas and resources with other college administrators.
These efforts are an attempt to address low voter turnout among college and university students. Data indicates that only 18 percent of college students voted in 2014. Those numbers do tend to increase during presidential elections; 45.1 percent of students voted in 2012, and 48.3 percent cast a vote in 2016. Bowdoin's voting rates increased from 38.5 percent in 2012 to 52.6 percent in 2016.
Inspiring Bowdoin students to become committed voters fits in well with the mission of Bowdoin's McKeen Center, according to Lardie. I think it's a fundamental aspect of a healthy life, and an important part of our job as educators, he said. And I happen to work in a department where our mandate is to help people understand how they fit into the common good, and if we don't have a responsibility for providing this kind of support, then who does?
Students who would like to volunteer with Bowdoin Votes are invited to fill out this quick interest form.
