We hope to point you toward links that you may not have seen, alert you to events that you won’t want to miss, and call your attention to items that captured ours. Enjoy.

Nearly 40 people have responded so far; almost all of the respondents hold very strong views.
• Here comes spring.
• The Middlebury Campus has been examining religious life on campus. Last week, the paper reported on Catholicism at the College.
