In a world that is both increasingly interconnected yet polarized, we need global citizens invested in the common good. At NMH, you will learn to appreciate the variations that exist among individuals and within communities. Alongside students from diverse cultures and countries, you will exchange ideas and conceive ways to make the world economically balanced, environmentally healthy, and committed to peace.

One of the classes I’ve taken this

fall is the sophomore Diversity

and Social Justice seminar. It’s designed

not only to make you consider the many

aspects of diversity and multiculturalism

in our society, but also to increase your

awareness of your own identity. I think

both of those goals are reinforced by

what I do outside of the classroom at

NMH. I’m a member of the Circle of

Sisters, an affinity group for young

women of color that raised a lot of

money for the local food pantry this year.

This past summer, I increased my

awareness of my identity in a big way.

I reconnected with my native country,

Ethiopia. I worked in an orphanage,

and it was very powerful. It felt

like an entirely new experience and

like home at the same time.

Born in Ethiopia, Mitike came to the U.S. 10 years ago. An excellent student, a varsity runner, and a member of the choir, Mitike has thrived at NMH.

When I was looking at boarding

schools, I was attracted to NMH

for a number of reasons. The CMAP

schedule made a big difference. I’m the

kind of person who really likes to focus

in-depth. Also, I play the tabla (Indian

drums), and NMH has an incredible world

music program. Perhaps most important

is the emphasis here on globalization.

That’s really expanded my view of things.

I’ve taken a school trip to China to

study language and now I’m going to

Qatar with Model UN. As head of the

World Music Combo, I’ve learned about

percussion instruments from Korea,

Africa, and Latin America, and have come

to see that there are commonalities and

differences among them. What’s so cool at

NMH is that there are so many different

mindsets, methodologies, and perspec-

tives here. They’re all explored through

writing, through music, through art, and

they form this unique amalgamation that

becomes a body of knowledge.

Sidd sees the world through multiple perspectives. The next stop on his journey of discovery will be the University of Chicago.

Hannah, who is heading to Middlebury College, meets challenges head-on. When her father became ill, she rolled up her sleeves and got to work.

I started the Cancer Team at school.

Almost 70 students are involved

and participate in local cancer walks,

on-campus fundraising, and general

cancer-awareness programs. Then I had

this idea to start a coffee bar on campus,

with the proceeds going to charity. Our

directors of Service Learning and Dining

Services were amazing. They helped me

plan out the whole thing and write my

business plan. Now the café is set to open

in this perfect spot in the library.

Even more, I was inspired to dream

big, and drew on that inspiration this year

when I climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in Kenya

in support of the Norris Cotton Cancer

Center. The fact that I had to raise $5,000

in order to do this was a mountain in

itself, but the can-do spirit at NMH

prepared me for the experience of a

lifetime. It didn’t hurt either that being

on NMH’s Nordic ski team meant I was

in shape for the climb!
