After a one-year absence due to the pandemic, the college’s annual celebration of student academic achievement, the Mount David Summit, zooms back to life this year on Saturday, May 15.
Held virtually via Zoom this year, the 19th Summit offers guests a convenient way to hear directly from Bates students about their academic work, some of it cutting edge research.
More than 160 students will participate in this year’s event in four sessions, the first kicking off at 11 a.m. and the final at 4 p.m.
With a simple Zoom registration, you can attend this year’s virtual Mount David Summit on May 15 and meet Bates students.

Though offered entirely online and remotely through Zoom sessions, the college’s 2021 Martin Luther King Jr. Day program still delivered its share of insight, criticism, and hope.
Here are a few quotes that capture important messages from the day.
“I’ll never forget the shock I felt when Chris Wallace from Fox News asked, at the first presidential debate, ‘What does re-imagining policing look like?’ It marks an important moment that would have been inconceivable even last year: The rhetoric of Black Lives Matter protesters have made their way into the vocabulary of a Fox News journalist on a national debate stage.”
