<\/span><\/h1>\n
When Alex Weinman \u201924 was applying for internships last spring, he had two simple conditions: he wanted to be in a place with great fly fishing and he wanted to do something to help protect the area\u2019s environmental resources. Little did he know that lessons he learned from CC, like taking a stand for what he believes in, would be the driving force of his massively successful internship.<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
Weinman began his internship at Cottonwood Environmental Law Center<\/a> in Bozeman, Montana during the summer of 2023. Cottonwood is a small non-profit that works in environmental protection and clean water litigation. When he arrived, the organization was facing <\/strong>criminal trespassing charges against its executive director, John Meyer.<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
\u201cI knew before I took the job that his trial was approaching, but John was very confident all along that he would not be found guilty because the facts of the case were on his side, and because the charges against our grassroots coordinator for the same event had already been dropped,\u201d Weinman says.<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
Weinman made videos explaining the case on Instagram<\/a> and TikTok<\/a>, with one Instagram video<\/a> getting over 900 thousand views, giving the organization and the case vast exposure.<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/h1>\n
\u201cI think the biggest thing that CC did for me was alleviate the fear of taking a loud stance for what I believe in,\u201d Weinman says.  READ THE FULL STORY \u00bb<\/a><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

How does ADEI benefit the college?<\/h1>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Come join in a robust community conversation on ADEI with members of CC\u2019s ADEI team. Our vision is a justice-centered CC community in which all members feel a sense of belonging and where we continuously uproot oppression wherever it exists, including within ourselves. Community conversation is a great tool to help us get there.<\/div>\n

<\/span> <\/p>\n

This event, part of the Work of the College Series, <\/em>will be held in McHugh Commons Tuesday, Dec. 12 from 2-3 p.m.<\/strong> Register for the event<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

What does your job entail?  
<\/strong>I teach a variety of courses on twentieth century U.S. history. My favorite is a course on community organizing where we use models and case studies from across the twentieth century, like the Flint Sit-Down Strike, or the work of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee to think about seemingly timeless dilemmas of actually making social change. I also advise students in the History Department on their senior essays and theses. I serve on college-wide committees and all the normal work of a CC professor. And I work on my own scholarship as well. I\u2019m currently co-writing a book about progressives and the left in the United States and their relationships to global politics.<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
Where did you work before CC and what were you doing?
<\/strong>Before coming to CC, I spent four years as a lecturer in Harvard University\u2019s History and Literature concentration. It\u2019s a great little corner of Harvard where undergraduates get a major role in designing their own course of study.<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
Tell us a little about your background.
<\/strong>I was born in Washington, D.C. and grew up in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. For undergraduate studies, I went to Brandeis University in Waltham, MA. There, I plunged into a lot of college activism, which continued after graduating when I moved to Washington, D.C. I worked at MoveOn.org and Public Citizen for about three years and then decided to get a PhD in History. That kept me in D.C. a while until I moved back to the Boston area to work at Harvard.<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
What do you like to do when not working?  
<\/strong>When I have energy \u2013 going out for hikes, having friends over, and cooking. When I have less energy \u2013 films and TV.<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/div>\n
Wild card: When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
<\/strong>Maybe an astronaut? I\u2019ve always and continue to love science fiction.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Swing by the Agents of Care<\/em> gallery Friday, Dec. 15 from 1-4 p.m.<\/strong> to watch museum collections staff unframe several works by artist Salvador Dal\u00ed. Unframing art can often lead to exciting discoveries including sketches and incomplete drafts on the reverse of works, hidden inscriptions, and more. Museum staff will discuss why we store some works framed while unframing others, and how unframed art is protected and kept safe. This is a drop-in program that is free and open to the public.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n
