‘A way to stall us’: Students express frustration at College’s insufficient support for Indigenous communities

Williams’ 1737 deed claimed land that was already home to the Mohicans. (Photo courtesy of Special Collections.)

The father of Williams College’s founder, Ephraim Williams Sr., played a direct role in the displacement of the Stockbridge-Munsee Tribe from the Town. Documented in a 1737 deed, Williams Sr. claimed land that was already the home to Mohicans.

In interviews with the Record, however, multiple students said that the College has been slow to enact recommendations proposed by a variety of working groups seeking to improve the College’s relations with Indigenous people. 

“There isn’t a question about what the campus should be doing — it’s already outlined,” said Daisy Rosalez ’25, a leader for the Native American Indigenous Students Alliance (NISA). 

In 2021, the College’s Committee on Diversity and Community published a report entitled “Recommendations for Reckoning with Our Institutional Histories.” The recommendations were meant to “to better represent and reckon with the College’s histories, and where needed, repair relationships with community members.” 

One of the recommendations, “to create a committee, or committees, which directly address particular problematic histories; for instance, having a committee that reckons specifically with Indigenous displacement,” led to the creation of the Native American and Indigenous Working Group. The College also published an official land acknowledgment, per another one of the committee’s recommendations.

Later that year, Mirabai Dyson ’24, Gwyn Chilcoat ’24, Hikaru Hayakawa ’24, and Jayden Jogwe ’25 drafted a list of recommendations in their independent study that called upon the College to provide reparations to the Mohican Nation and create free housing for members of the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. The Native American and Indigenous Working group has since added to the students’ list of recommendations. 

“Nothing has happened,” Jogwe said. “[The College] created the working group…

Mohican Women’s Outdoor Adventure deemed a success

EDITOR’S NOTE: This story was first published at the Ohio Department of Natural Resources website.

LOUDONVILLE – More than 100 women from across the state gathered at Mohican State Park Lodge & Conference Center last month for the 10th annual Ohio Women’s Outdoor Adventure, hosted by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR).

The event provided participants an exciting chance to explore outdoor skills, including boating, fishing, shooting sports, and nature programming.

The weekend, tailored for women aged 16 and older, the Ohio Women’s Outdoor Adventure creates a welcoming, pressure-free environment to embrace new activities.

From kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding to archery and sustainable living, participants expanded their skills while enjoying the natural beauty of one of Ohio’s most beloved state parks.

“We look forward to hosting this event every year because it is a fantastic opportunity for women to enjoy the outdoors and everything Ohio has to offer,” said ODNR Director Mary Mertz.

“The women that spend the weekend with our staff make long-lasting memories and may experience something they’ve never done before.”

Hosted by ODNR’s Division of Parks and Watercraft with support from experts across the divisions of Forestry, Natural Areas and Preserves, Wildlife, and Geological Survey, the event featured hands-on sessions in fishing, hiking, shotgun and rifle basics, stream quality monitoring, wild edibles, and more.

Participants also enjoyed a special dinner at nearby Malabar Farm State Park, immersing themselves in Ohio’s rich outdoor heritage.

You can download video from the weekend as well as interviews by clicking here.

As the Ohio Women’s Outdoor Adventure grows in popularity, next year’s event is expected to fill up fast.

Keep an eye out for registration details, and don’t miss out on next year’s adventure.

Iowa Legend Caitlin Clark Gets Bold Praise from LeBron James

Former Iowa Hawkeyes’ superstar Caitlin Clark just finished out her rookie season in the WNBA with the Indiana Fever. While they ended up making the playoffs, they were bounced out of the first round by the Connecticut Sun.

Despite losing in the first round, the future is extremely bright for Clark and the Fever.

Recently, NBA superstar LeBron James came out and shared some bold praise about Clark. She has received a lot of praise from NBA stars throughout her rookie WNBA season.

Speaking to Esquire, James shared quite a few thoughts about Clark and made it clear that he has a lot of respect for what she’s doing.

“I have a great deal of respect for Caitlin Clark because I know exactly what it means to be drafted, be the face of a franchise, and also get the scrutiny from a lot of people that don’t believe you’re ready for the next jump, don’t believe you’re ready for the big leagues, and just don’t think that you belong. And I remember that when I came into the league at eighteen years old, how many people doubted me and hoped and prayed that I’d fail.”

Those are some big words coming from a player of the caliber of James.

Clark has completely changed the outlook for women’s basketball. She has brought all-time high viewership to the WNBA and has become a global player.

As a rookie, Clark ended up playing in 40 games. She averaged 19.2 points per game to go along with 8.4 assists, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.3 steals. In addition to those averages, she shot 41.7 percent from the floor and 34.4 percent from the three-point line.

It will be interesting to see what the future has in store for Clark. She already looks the part of a WNBA superstar.

More than likely,…

Dirty Dancing town wiped off the map by Hurricane Helene

The once-idyllic mountain village of Chimney Rock, North Carolina, that was  immortalized on film including blockbusters The Last of the Mohicans and Dirty Dancing has been all but wiped out after being blasted by the floodwaters brought on by Hurricane Helene. 

The small village with a population of just 140 people, nestled in the heart of the state, sits beneath the towering cliffs of Chimney Rock State Park and had long attracted filmmakers for its breathtaking landscape. 

But now, the village, along with its pristine Lake Lure, lies in ruins and is full of debris brought on by the devastating floods that churned through the area this weekend.

A wall of water came rushing down the Broad River, wiping out most of the structures along Main Street in Chimney Rock and sending it into Lake Lure.

The Rocky Broad River flows into Lake Lure and now overflowed the town with debris from Chimney Rock, North Carolina after heavy rains from Hurricane Helene The Rocky Broad River flows into Lake Lure and now overflowed the town with debris from Chimney Rock, North Carolina after heavy rains from Hurricane Helene

H.S. Football: Lake-Lehman pulls away from Nanticoke Area

NANTICOKE — The start was sluggish for Lake-Lehman, but once the Black Knights got locked in there wasn’t much that Nanticoke Area could do.

Lake-Lehman scored twice in 11 seconds midway through the second quarter to take firm control of the game and never let it go, running through Nanticoke Area 35-7 to improve to 4-2 on the year, 2-0 in Division 2.

“I thought we played a little too wild in the beginning, guys weren’t playing assignment football,” Lake-Lehman coach Jerry Gilsky said. “You saw the difference in the second half.”

Quarterback Hayden Evans and wideout Chris Sholtis connected for three Lake-Lehman touchdowns, and the senior wide receiver ended his night with 119 yards receiving even as a rainy night in Nanticoke made it difficult to do much through the air.

The two teams played a relatively even first quarter, with Nanticoke Area’s defense winning in the trenches and sacking Evans twice, both times for big losses.

The game changed in the second quarter, after a goal line stand gave the Black Knights the ball pinned back against their own end zone.

Jaydon Skipalis busted a 48-yard run out to midfield to give his team some breathing room, and a long completion to Sholtis set up Jim Mitkowski for a short touchdown run to give Lake-Lehman the lead.

On the ensuing kickoff, Nanticoke Area’s return man coughed up the football and gave the Black Knights the ball back deep in Trojan territory.

They needed just one play: Evans found Sholtis wide open for 24 yards and a score, and in the blink of an eye Lake-Lehman led 14-0.

“Every team would love a momentum switch like that to finish the half,” Gilsky said.

After a long touchdown run from Treston Allen to get Nanticoke on the board, Evans and…
