Union opposes removing nurses from Porter doctor’s offices Krystal Turnbaugh

New Haven woman arrested NEW HAVEN Ñ On Feb. 1, Vermont State Police in New Haven responded to a residence on East Street in the Town of New Haven, attempting to locate a wanted person, Krystal Turnbaugh, 31.

VSP had an active return to custody on mittimus request issued for TurnbaughÕ s arrest through the Vermont Department of Corrections.

Turnbaugh was located at the residence and taken into custody without incident.

She was transported to the New Haven barracks where she was then transferred into the custody of the Addison County SheriffÕ s Department for transport to the correctional center.

MIDDLEBURY Ñ The Porter Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals (PFNHP) met Feb. 2 with the administration at Porter Medical Center (PMC) to discuss the hospitalÕ s recent announcement of layoffs. PMC is attempting to cut nursing staff in doctor’s offices leaving most offices with only R.N. Ò We know that those with more education, training and experience provide better patient care. This decision by the Porter administration to replace experienced R.N.s with medical assistants, whose only requirement is a High School diploma is shortsighted, unnecessary and not in the interest of our patients,Ó said Alice Leo, president of the union at Porter. Ò While we are continuing to oppose the layoffs, we are also negotiating that anyone who takes a voluntary layoff receive a fair severance package. And our position at the bargaining table is that there should be no involuntary layoffs.”

Some nurses also have serious concerns about the announcement. Ò We are deeply concerned that replacing CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Law firm for CEO investigated Vermont activist

By Bruce Parker

Vermont Watchdog Report

Environmental activist Annette Smith.

HINESBURG — A law firm representing a prominent green-energy CEO had been investigating an anti-Big Renewables activist now under a criminal probe by the Vermont Office of Attorney General.

According to documents posted Sunday on the blog for Vermonters for a Clean Environment, Burlington-based law firm Dinse, Knapp and McAndrew has been gathering files on Annette Smith, the groupÕ s director.

On Oct. 28, the law firm, which represents All Earth Renewables CEO David Blittersdorf, sent public records requests to the towns of Morgan and Irasburg to inquire about services Smith provided on local renewable energy projects.

One request asked for information on whether Smith received “attorney compensation.”

Smith, an environmental activist who opposes industrial-scale wind and solar, was informed in a Jan. 19 letter from the attorney gen-

eral’s office that she is being scrutinized due to complaints that her work with towns amounts to practicing law without a license Ñ an act considered contempt of the Vermont Supreme Court and punishable by fines or imprisonment.

While the complainantÕ s identity was kept secret, the Associated Press reported on Sunday that the complaint letter sent to the attorney general’s office references the public records request filed in Morgan. That complaint letter, dated Dec. 17, states that SmithÕ s work “has crossed the line from pro se advocacy on behalf of her own organization into the realm of rendering legal advice and representation to third parties.Ó Neither Blittersdorf nor his attorney would speak to Associated Press reporter Dave Gram about the letter. Watchdog.orgÕ s requests for comment were not returned as of last Monday.

If Blittersdorf and his attorneys are the cause of the criminal probe, it would not be the CONTINUED ON PAGE 8

Bristol to open new fire station in June

By Lou Varricchio

BRISTOL Ñ The Eagle met with Chief LaRose recently to discuss the new fire station under construction on West Street and the Bristol F.D.Õ s storied history in Vermont. This is the conclusion to our interview series: The Eagle: What prompted the decision to build a new fire station elsewhere rather than raze the 1897 station and build on the same site?

LaRose: “The town does not have a use for this building and the cost of hanging on to it, and maintaining it, is too much. If the town wanted to keep it, who knows the cost just to bring it up to code. The foundation is crumbling underneath it. ThatÕ s why there are no fire trucks parked here now.”

The Eagle: Currently, the fire station is basically 200 square feet of safe space. Is that correct?

LaRose: “Yes, this little space we’re sitting in is all that we’re permitted to use in this building.Ó The Eagle: The construction ball really started rolling on the new fire station project in 2014.

LaRose: “In the fall of 2014 there was negotiating going on between the Select Board and the Recreation Club. The Recreation Club in Bristol is private; it’s not part of town (government). The club owns all the property where the skateboard park is located.

The town does have a recreation department, but it leases the land with the skateboard park and the teen center.Ó The Eagle: What stood on the site of the new station?

LaRose: “The property where the new station is being built

on is where Nelson Memorials was located. A building was removed. Private developer Kevin Harper purchased the land. He came to the town and said ‘I have this piece of land, if you’re interested I would like to help in the process to build the town a new fire station.’ So when Mr. Harper came forward the land on

the southside of West Street, the rec club officers saw it as working out best for everyone. The club didn’t have to give up rec land, which you’d never get back once it’s developed. Negotiations between the club and the Select Board stopped. The town then started working with Mr. Harper to purchase that piece of property. About the same time, we had structural failures that started occurring at the old fire station. The first floor and second story buckled. That set of an alarmÑ Ô This isnÕ t good!Õ We had fire trucks parked in there and we didn’t want them ending up in the basement.Ó The Eagle: An engineer inspected the old station, correct?

LaRose: “Yes, an engineer did an assessment to see it the building was safe to use as a fire station. It was determined we couldn’t park trucks in there. We couldn’t have more than six adults upstairs at one time. We now have this small, 200 square feet space to operate within. From this we moved the trucks out… so, we don’t use the upstairs room which served us for pretty much everything. This is what we’re stuck with for now… but obviously this 1897 building was not designed to hold the trucks of today.Ó The Eagle: You have a site now. One year ago, taxpayers approved the architectural fees to bring in Cushman Design Group of Stowe and builders Naylor and Breen of Brandon.

LaRose: “The community wanted us to look at building something for the next 100 years. That’s what we did. We feel we design a fire station that will meet the needs of the community for the next 100 years—and should the town of Bristol ever get to the point when it needs a full-time fire department… there is space that converted into a bunk room.”

The Eagle: Yes, but for the foreseeable future, you need volunteers to keep things going. How many volunteers are currently involved?

LaRose: “Between fire department members and our cadet program, we have 43 individuals on our roster. If you have a fulltime staff, you may have 2-4 people here at a time on duty. But I truly think we’re a long way from having to hire full-time people.

I personally donÕ t think IÕ ll see it in my lifetime. Middlebury runs 100-120 calls a year more than we do; there still not full time. So I donÕ t see it in the immediate future.Ó The Eagle: When do you expect to have the new fire station completed?

LaRose: “Sometime in June 2016. Our 2016-17 FY budget which begins July 1 was designed for the new fire station. That was one of my biggest challenges this past year was putting together a budget, with the town administrator and Select Board, for a building that hadnÕ t been constructed yet. We did a lot of researchÑ heating cost, mechanicals, sprinkler system. I still canÕ t believe this is happening. I have 8 years invested in this project, serving on many committees. Getting to that successful bond vote on July 7, 2015, with 75 percent of the town’s support felt really, really good.Ó The Eagle: Please give our readers an overview of the new station.

LaRose: “The site is located along West Street, across from Mt. Abraham Union High School and the rec field. A new town road will be built along the station. It was connect West Street, along the station, to a future business park. ThatÕ s what helped sell the fire station project. Yes, we were developing the land for the station, but it was also opening up land for a new business park.

Like many small Vermont communities, the Town of Bristol can use a little bump with taxes and also create a little industry here.Ó The Eagle: The town has incorporated many modern features in the new fire station.

LaRose: “Yes, for example, it’s a “drive-thru” concept. Fire trucks drive through the building into a large bay. This is common in new fire stations, providing you have the land. It’s a safety feature; you don’t have to back-in vehicles. We’ll have three trucks parked side-by-side with one behind them. We have a total of six trucks in the fleet. All are parked strategically for how they’ll roll out for responses. Front-line engines depart first.”

The Eagle: Bristol has a lot of pride in its firefighting heritage. I understand the new station will showcase vintage apparti?

LaRose: “Yes, we have what we’re calling an ‘antique bay’. It’s CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Students talk with orbiting astronauts

RUTLAND — Members of the Green Mountain Wireless Society were at Christ the King School in Rutland on Feb. 4 to help set up a ground link with U.S. and Russian astronauts on the orbiting International Space Station.

CKS students had a chance to quickly ask a question or two to several of the current ISS Expedition 46 mission crew members.

The Expedition 46 crew include Commander Scott Kelly, Sergey Volkov, Mikhail Kornienko, Timothy Kopra, Timothy Peake, and Yuri Malenchenko.

The Green Mountain Wireless Society was founded in 1980 by a small group of Amateur Radio Operators in Rutland County. The club was formed as a general interest radio club, while several members also began building a repeater to cover the local valley. Some club members have already communicated with ISS astronauts.

The special space event was coordinated by a former NASA employee associated with the Catholic school.

St. Mary’s School top spellers are Liam Wagner, Thomas Wolosinski, and Maggie Lane, with Interim Principal Craig Hill. Wagner moves on to statewide competition.

Publisher’s Column

From the Editor

The death of Mason deVos There ought to be a law T L

ast week, I came across the tragic news story of a little boy with an Addison County, Vt., connection. The report appeared in the online edition of The Oregonian, dated Jan. 23, 2016.

This out-of-area story—reported by Oregon journalist Emily E. Smith—tells of the troubling 2014 death of two-year-old Mason deVos of Tigard, Ore., formerly a resident of Cornwall, Vt. At the time, the Tigard community was shocked by news of little MasonÕ s death.

In October 2014, emotions ran high in this northwest Oregon city with a population of 48,000; so much so, one person went as far as to whisper Ò murderÓ Ñ either by neglect, perhaps, or perhaps for some reason not yet revealed by those closer to the tragedy?

No matter, without new evidence, such uttering will remain innuendo.

Before we abstract the story here, let us say that the Eagle was surprised to learn that a far-away Washington County, Ore., story has an Addison County, Vt., connection; the subjects in the Mason deVos story have a very local connection to readers of the Eagle.

In a certain way, the Mason deVos tragedy began in VermontÑ in Addison County.

Ironically, the deVos case was missed completely

by Vermont’s more aggressive newspapers.

Why this particular story was glossed over locally, we’re not really sure; perhaps there was fear of ruffling local attorney, client, and judicial feathers? (We have the recent IRS and DOJ examples of partisanship to know that anyone—even a small-town reporter— can become a target of official umbrage.)

No matter, the death of Mason deVos is an American tragedy spanning Washington County, Ore., where the denouement took place, to Addison County, Vt., whereÑ in this dysfunctional family dramaÑ the curtain of the tragedy arose. For you see, little Mason deVos was born in Middlebury on June 10, 2012, when his unmarried parents—Jesse deVos and Kimberly Volk—resided in Cornwall.

“Not long after Mason’s first birthday, Volk left deVos. She returned to Oregon with both children (Mason and his brother) and moved in with her mother (Shannon Volk),Ó writes Smith in The Oregonian. Ò The move ignited a court battle that raged in the northeast and in the northwest; Vermont gave custody to Volk (the mother) and visitation to deVos (the father), but he appealed. He was still waiting (in Cornwall) on a decision from the Vermont Supreme Court on the day

that turned out to be MasonÕ s last.Ó On Oct. 13, 2014, Mason deVos was found dead.

The routine autopsy of MasonÕ s body found nothing wrong, but then a month later, toxicology found that the boy had died of opiate poisoningÑ morphine.

It was revealed that Volk’s mother takes prescription morphine for osteoarthritis.

As Smith reported, the pills were supposed to be out- of-reach of the tot, but then police wondered if Shannon Volk ever gave her grandson a pill to help him sleep? “...Absolutely not!,” Shannon Volk told investigators, according to SmithÕ s reporting. But then, SmithÕ s news story in The Oregonian raises a lot more questions than it can possibly answer.

For example, Smith asks: “How could a lethal amount of morphine get to (Jesse deVosÕ s) son? Or how did Mason get it?Ó What Smith reports makes the unknowns of this story even more tragic: There’s lazy police work, a reported lag time in the Volk women calling 911, and also the lack of clear evidence regarding exactly how Mason managed to ingest the morphine. Add to this a legal system here in Vermont which started the tragedy rolling.

We’re unlikely to ever comprehend what really happened to Mason deVos; for some, there seems to be blame enough to go around.

So, there you have it: Mason deVos is dead. There is no answer to the question of why; no one alive, at least not in this world, can bring back this happy, twoyear-old boy.

Poet Carolyn Autiello writes about the mystery of the death of a child in a “A Child Never Forgotten”.

She pens, “A place in heaven is where you sit, looking at that star you lit; in our thoughts forever you will be, never knowing why someone set you free.”

We can only hope that Mason deVos’s final rest is a peaceful one, protected for eternity by the wings of angels.

Note: You can read the 2014 Vermont Supreme Court docket—now a public document—about deVos v. Volk online at: https://www.vermontjudiciary.org/UPEO2011Present/eo14-043.pdf.

here really should be a law against such behavior and such price gouging.

I’m sure by now you’ve heard about Martin Shkreli, the former pharmaceutical executive who generated national outrage after he raised the price of a once-cheap lifesaving pill from $13.50 to $750, an increase of more than 5000 percent overnight.

ShkreliÕ s contempt for those in need of Daraprim, a pill used to treat toxoplasmoDan Alexander sis, a parasitic disease that afflicts people Thoughts from with weakened immune systems, such as Behind the Pressline those with AIDS and pregnant women, has caused members of Congress to question his motives.

His brief appearance on Capital Hill, showcased perhaps one of the worst and most disrespectful individuals one could possibly ever encounter. It also exemplifies what many today feel about the pharmaceutical industry that places profits before human needs.

In a memo drafted by Shkreli to investors he stated, “So 5,000 paying bottles at the new price is $375,000,000—almost all of it is profit and I think we will get 3 years of that or more. Should be a very handsome investment for all of us. Let’s all cross our fingers that the estimates are accurate.”

Despite demonstrating his true contempt during the hearing where he repeatedly refused to testify on advice from council, Shkreli appeared genuinely disgusted that he would be forced to appear at the hearing and be lectured.

While being addressed he smirked, made faces, looked away and appeared on the verge of laughter at one point when U. S. Rep Elijah Cummings was speaking. Cummings went on reprimand Shkreli, saying Ò ItÕ s not funny, Mr. Shkreli.

People are dying and theyÕ re getting sicker and sicker.Ó After the hearing, he made it very clear what he thought of the entire process when he tweeted, Ò Ó Hard to accept that these imbeciles represent the people in our government.”

What kind of heartless human being acts like this?

It seems well beyond common decency that anyone who was not deranged could possibly think and act this way, but sadly from his perspective, we’re all idiots and he is sane.

IÕ m all for free enterprise and free market principles, but when any one company or person puts lives at risk in this manner and chooses to operate to the detriment of mankind, some form of emergency government eminent domain process should be enacted to protect the innocent.

Fortunately his management style has caused him to run afoul of the law being charged this fall by federal prosecutors for security violations and also faces many civil lawsuits filed against him regarding his business dealings.

As enlightened as we may be today if we lack respect for each other and devalue life in the name of making a buck, our culture will be in deep trouble and future generations will sadly pay the price for what we fail to correct today.

Banquet of Champions awards local race drivers

By Justin St. Louis & Lou Varricchio

RUTLAND — A sold-out crowd of more than 370 stock car drivers, team members, race officials, sponsors, and media put the cap on the 2015 Devil’s Bowl Speedway racing season on Jan. 30 at the track’s annual Banquet of Champions.

The event was hosted by the Holiday Inn Rutland-Killington in Rutland, Vt., and officially crowned the season champions in eight different divisions at the speedway in West Haven on Route 22A. Several special annual awards were also presented, including the trackÕ s highest honor, the John Bruno Award. The trophy was shared by Debbie Eddy of Fair Haven, Vt., and posthumously by her longtime partner, Ron White, in recognition of their significant lifetime contributions to racing while maintaining high standards of conduct and respect on and off the track.

Other asphalt track champions included Josh Masterson of

Bristol, Vt., in the Central Vermont Motorcycles Late Models; Robert Gordon of Milton, Vt., in the BrileyaÕ s Chrysler-Jeep Renegades; and Chris LaVair of Gabriels, N.Y., in the Portland Glass Mini Stocks. Masterson and LaVair were each their first-time champs in their respective divisions, while Gordon’s title was his third in four years. Rookie of the Year titles went to Bob Kilburn of Fair Haven, Vt., (Modified), Richard Lowrey III of Charlotte, Vt., (Late Model), Matt Monaghan of Colchester, Vt., (Renegade), and Bradley Bertrand of Ferrisburgh, Vt., (Mini Stock).

Darrell Older of Ballston Spa, N.Y., and Brian Bishop of Bridport, Vt., also won dirt championships. OlderÕ s title was in the Renegade division, while Bishop topped the Mini Stocks. Brett Wood of Georgia, Vt., collected his first title in the MFT Sauce & Rub Co. Enduro Series, which holds races on both track surfaces at Devil’s Bowl.

The Award of Excellence was given to racing mainstay and Sunoco Race Fuels dealer John Holland of New England Racing Fuels, while the Dedication Award was presented to longtime

RUTLAND Ñ The College of St. Joseph menÕ s basketball team earned a win against NHTI on Jan. 26 with a final score of 78-64. The Fighting Saints have now won three games in a row and move to 12-6 overall on the season. The team is 7-1 in YSCC conference games.

Kareem Brown had his best game of the season for the Saints and led his team to victory with his dominating performance. He came out of the gate being more aggressive than usual and proved how much of a force he can be, scoring 25 points on 12 of 23 shooting and also snatched a staggering 18 rebounds. He controlled the game in the post all night and helped the Saints outscore the Lynx 52 to 26 in points in the paint.

Antonio Gordon took on the scoring load for the Saints as he has all season. He gave CSJ a huge spark off the bench, which has become par for the course. He was in the zone, scoring a game high 28 points on an efficient 12 for 16 from Antonio Gordon took on the scoring the field. He also went 3 of 6 from downtown. load for the Saints as he has all season.

NHTI was led by Jared Stauffeneker who ended up with 13 points and four rebounds.

The Saints were able to hold Dayvon Russell, NHTI’s leading scorer, to just nine points on 3 of 12 shooting. Russell scored 31 points in the first meeting of the season and CSJ made sure that he would not do that again.

The Saints defense as a whole was special against the Lynx. They held them to 38.1 percent shooting and never let them feel comfortable.

first time they acted against Smith. On Sept. 24, Dinse, Knapp and McAndrew, acting on behalf of Blittersdorf, served Smith a no-tresspass warning covering Blittersdorf-owned lands in Morgan, Irasburg, Lowell, Charlotte, Hinesburg and Chittenden.

Smith, who is not a lawyer, told Vermont Watchdog she received legal advice not to speak about the attorney general’s investigation. She refused to comment on this story.

Towns across Vermont routinely consult Smith as someone knowledgeable about the Public Service Board, a quasi-judicial panel that approves energy-generating facilities. The letter from the attorney general’s office says Smith “may have engaged in the unlicensed practice of law before the Public Service Board in five different dockets.” The docket numbers — all involving renewable energy — are listed as CPG NM-1646, 8148, 8561, 8585 and CPG NM-6633.

The letter further states that the practice of law in Vermont is defined as including “the rendering of services for another involv[ing] the use of legal knowledge or skill on his [or her] behalf — where legal advice is required and is availed of or rendered in connection with such services.”

The recent file-gathering on Smith is certain to raise the eyebrows of those who feel VermontÕ s energy policy is rife with conflicts of interest. One of Dinse and Knapp’s attorneys, House Speaker Shap Smith, D-Morrisville, appoints the powerful chairman of the House Committee on Natural Resources and Energy.

That committee, led by its chair, state Rep. Anthony Klein, DEast Montpelier, helped pass VermontÕ s new renewable portfolio standard, Act 56.

While Associated Press reporter Dave Gram stopped short of saying Blittersdorf hired the firm to seek information on Smith, documents on display at the Vermonters for a Clean Environment blog could pressure SmithÕ s accusers to step out of the shadows.

“It seems to me that Annette should have the right to know whoÕ s accusing her of something. I think thatÕ s the way things work in this country,Ó said Mark Whitworth, president of the board of directors at Energize Vermont, a group that advocates for small-scale renewable energy.

“Clearly, the thought that everybody has is that this is an attempt to silence someone who has become very effective. It’s surprising that something like this would happen in Vermont,Ó he said.

Brian Dubie, Vermont’s former GOP lieutenant governor and a vocal opponent of industrial-scale wind turbines in Swanton, said towns lack resources to argue cases before the Public Service Board and have benefitted from Smith’s guidance.

“Towns and citizens who are desperate to protect their communities have turned to Annette Smith for help. Annette has assisted our community in Swanton for the last seven months (and) is committed to assisting communities who are threatened by the ‘Gold Rush’ of industrial scale renewable energy projects,Ó he said.

Vermont Sen. Joe Benning SPEAKS “(David Blittersdorf)... is... a major player in Vermont politics, as many Vermont politicians receive his campaign contributions. He recently gave a presentation to Addison County Democrats entitled: ‘Vermont’s Renewable Energy Future’... Ò He makes it quite clear that the only proper way for Vermont to reach 75 percent renewable generation is with in-state produced power... He says our current in-state renewable production of 100 megawatts will need to rise to 9,000 megawatts to meet our goal. To get there, he proposes 3,000 megawatts of industrial wind facilities and 6,000 megawatts of industrial solar arrays... Ò One can therefore surmise that Vermont would need to convert tens of thousands of acres worth of viable agricultural and forest land into solar fields to get the other 98 to 99 percent. He also says it’s time to relax some of Act 250’s strict land protections... “(Blittersdorf’s plans:) 200 miles of ridgelines adorned with almost 500-foot-tall whirligigs that blink at night, each one atop a concrete pad that has obliterated a pristine environment and disrupted wildlife habitat corridors. Untold thousands of acres of clear-cut forestlands and despoiled agricultural land covered with solar arrays.”

much smaller but we have a 1936 American LaFrance pumper (the first truck Bristol ever bought) and a hand hose truck I mentioned earlier. In 2000, we raised funds to completely restore the pumper. We use it for parades and funerals only; it has carried more caskets than I can count.Ó The Eagle: You seem to be very concerned about how personnel and vehicles are used in the new station.

LaRose: “Yes, the building is designed around flow—that is, how well do we respond to an emergency? The personal vehicles of volunteer responders will come to the station via a one-way private drive. As we’re all coming in during an emergency, we won’t impede with emergency vehicles or future business park traffic. They park, come in the door, right into the gear locker room. They don personal protective gear, safely, away from the trucks—then get on the trucks and go do their jobs. We also showers, something we never had before. Firefighters are exposed to carcinogens and it gets on our gear and on our skin and we bring it home. We also have a washing extractor where we can wash our gear regularly. We should be doing it, but we didnÕ t have the means until this new station.”

The Eagle: This is huge step forward for all the Bristol volunteers.

LaRose: “Let me say that volunteering is more than just getting together to flip some hamburgers or doing a good thing on a Saturday to help some local organization. This is a commitment.

When I joined 20 years ago, I was told my family comes first, my job comes second (because that pays the bills), and the fire department expects to be number three. Twenty years later, IÕ m now the guy sitting at this table giving the same spiel. Ò It has to be that way because thereÕ s so much expected from a volunteer. We are professional- volunteer firefighters; that’s how refer to us all the time.

“A volunteer is expected to perform, and train, the same way someone who is collecting a paycheck does—yes, full timers have more calls, and thatÕ s why they are full time. I can only speak for the Bristol F.D., but we’re truly a professional-volunteer force. Ò The demands and expectations are always there along with changing national standards, and we have to be there, too. It’s my job to make sure everyone stays current. ThatÕ s why continuing education is where itÕ s at.Ó The Eagle: And you have the responsibility of saving lives and property, too.

LaRose: “Right. I’ll give you an example: this time of year we get many carbon monoxide alarm calls. Many people have them today; but many are false alarms because of expiration dates on the various devices.

But we use a multi-gas detector for all these investigations. Eventually, if there isn’t a problem (or even if there is), I am telling that family that it is safe to go back in their homes; you’re going to wake up tomorrow morning. To me, thatÕ s a huge responsibility. I don’t take this job lightly at all.

I am not only responsible for the lives of my firefighters, but also all the people weÕ re here to protect.Ó The Eagle: Thank you and best of luck with the new fire station.

LaRose: “You’re welcome.”

experienced, educated, licensed R.N.s with unlicensed medical assistants (M.A.Õ s) will have a negative impact on patient care. We need an experienced R.N. in every office every day. ItÕ s unclear who will cover the R.N.’s responsibilities when the RN is not there,Ó said Anza Armstrong, an R.N. who has worked at Porter for 38 years. Armstrong works at Bristol Internal Medicine which is slated to lose one of the two nurses covered by the union contract.Ó The Union and Porter management are continuing to negotiate.

Leo also stated, “We believe that changes that the Porter administration is making to DoctorÕ s contracts, and the layoff of RNs will lead to Doctor’s having less time with their patients. We are asking the Porter administration refocus on quality patient care and rescind the layoffs.Ó

Linley Shaw is Middlebury’s star on skis From College News Reports

MIDDLEBURY — South Burlington native Linley Shaw comes from a long line of Middlebury College Panther athletes. Her grandfather, Gale H. Shaw Jr. ’53 and aunt Danielle Shaw Virtue ’82 were both All-Americans as well as captains of their respective skiing teams. Additionally, Shaw’s cousin, Kara, graduated in 2015 and was a key member of last winter’s carnival team.

Linley, a captain on this yearÕ s alpine skiing team, is a member of Middlebury’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), a mentor at a nearby elementary school and has been a tour guide on campus.

Why did you decide to attend Middlebury?

I loved that Middlebury offered students so many opportunities in what seems like middle-of-nowhere Vermont. I wanted a college with small class sizes so I wouldn’t get lost as a student and where I could develop meaningful relationships with my professors.

Even though I’m from Vermont, I wasn’t against staying local for college. Middlebury was close enough to home that I could drive back to see my family when I wanted, but also far enough away that it felt like a new place.

What sparked your interest in Middlebury?

Growing up in South Burlington, Vt., I have known about Middlebury for as long as I can remember. Middlebury hosted the Vermont state swim meet when I was eight or nine and I remember thinking that the pool was so pristinely clean. I told my mom then that I wanted to go to Middlebury.

After graduating from high school, I was hoping to continue playing field hockey and skiing in college. Middlebury’s ski team was the most appealing to me because of the Snow BowlÕ s proximity to campus. Middlebury has the best training compared to the other college teams that have to travel an hour or two to get to their mountain. I knew that the Snow Bowl’s proximity would give me an opportunity to improve.

My family’s involvement with the ski team in years past also influenced my decision. My grandfather, aunt and my cousin are all Middlebury ski team alums.

Middlebury also had a successful field hockey program that I wanted to be a part of. The sunset view from Peter Kohn Field was the final deciding factor whether or not to apply to Middlebury.

What other activities do you participate in outside of class and alpine skiing?

I am a mentor at Beeman Elementary School. I visit my mentee every week to hang out, play games or do schoolwork. I am part of the Sherwood Society that organizes and hosts an event every year

The Vermont Eagle • February 13, 2016 | 11

www.addision-eagle.com to raise money for a local charity.

My freshman and sophomore years, I was also an admissions tour guide. This year as a junior, I joined the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) and I’m currently on the diversity and inclusion committee. I was also on the field hockey team for my first two years here at Middlebury.

How have you balanced your academic class load with your athletic schedule?

I’ve found the most time-consuming aspect of being on a sports team is the travel time. It’s hard for me to use travel time to get homework done, but I’ve learned to manage my time well and be efficient getting things done before or after getting on the vans. Otherwise, I’ve tried to use practice as my time to get out all my energy so that I can be productive later at the library. Coffee helps too!

At what age did you find a love for skiing, enough to continue to pursue it at such a high level at Middlebury?

I have been skiing with my family since I was two. My mom always says sheÕ s surprised I made it this far considering how much I disliked skiing when I was younger. I started to enjoy it as I got older but it I didnÕ t think I was talented enough to ski on a college team. I didnÕ t talk to any college coaches until my senior year of high school. In fact, Coach Bartlett was the only coach I reached out to and wanted to chat with.

I had always looked up to the Middlebury skiers when I was younger, so I was psyched when Coach Bartlett finally told me that I could have a spot on the team. I was so nervous to ski with them at first, but that quickly faded when I realized how supportive they were. The women’s team was really competitive with each other in practice last year, pushing one another to ski faster than the run before. We had so much fun with it and the competitive dynamic added to our teamÕ s success. The results showed our hard work when we sent a full womenÕ s team to the NCAA Championship last year.

What are you taking for J term?

This J term, I am taking Oratory Studio, an intensive public speaking course, with Professor Dana Yeaton. Thus far, I have given three speeches through Linley Shaw on skis the first three Courtesy of Middlebury College weeks. WeÕ re currently working on preparing for a final talk at the end of the term.

Last summer, you participated in MiddCORE. Can you describe some of the highlights of that experience?

At MiddCORE, I created a dress-sharing network called Share to Wear. Share to Wear is a service in which young women can lend and rent dresses. Ideally, the service would cater to two types of women. The first type would be young women who have dresses hanging in their closet that they donÕ t wear often. The second type would be women who are looking to wear a dress other than what they own but donÕ t want to pay a fortune for it.

The women who rent the dresses would pay an inexpensive fee between $5 and $20, and the women who lend the dresses would receive that money as extra pocket cash. I have been working at the Old Stone Mill to try and bring the idea to Middlebury, and IÕ m hoping to get a team together to launch the project in the spring.

Special thanks to the Shaw Family and Middlebury College Athletics for this reprint of a campus story for our readers.
