In late March, my newsfeed was full of proud and awed friends sharing Outsports’ profile of Jarred Kennedy-Loving ’15. Jarred talked about the experience of coming out as gay, and coming into his dance and Gender and Women’s Studies interests. He also touched on the importance of challenging gender stereotypes, such as the accepted meaning of 'manhood'. READ MORE

What is SEXY?

Consent is Sexy Week 2013 starts next week and it’s gotten me thinking… About consent, of course, which must be the backbone of any sexual encounter, be it between first time friends or long time partners.  But more than that, I’ve been thinking about sexy.  What is sexy? As much as Cosmo, Glamour, Women’s Health and the other piles of rags for women lecture me about it, sexy is still a hard concept for me to fully grasp.  Not the definition of it—one thing Bowdoin has taught me, Messrs.

If you’ve requested a book from Bates, or sidled over to the H-L library counter to borrow a pen, chances are you’ve seen Circulation Supervisor Amy Heggie. Current students won’t have met Amy prior to the summer of 2011, but Amy worked in H-L for over a decade before leaving in 2005 to manage a horse farm in New Hampshire. She dipped into the corporate world too, but—feeling pangs of separation for academia—took a position in the library at Colby. “As much as I enjoyed Colby, I missed Bowdoin,” Amy says. “I didn’t leave Bowdoin because I didn’t like it,” she adds, “I left for my dream job and came back because I missed Bowdoin.” READ MORE
