Emma Who?

“Emma Watson” + Middlebury College is a common search term used to get to Midd Blog. Some days, that search term and numerous variations thereof are the top ten searches for Midd Blog. You people are obsessed.

Well, search no more. It seems that The Boss– that’s right, Bruce Springsteen (!!!!!)– recently toured Middlebury College with his wife and son. Springsteen may be a smidge bit too old for Middlebury, but his 17-year-old son certainly is not.

I don’t know if this is true or not, it’s just some harmless gossip I picked up on the internet. If it is true, I seriously wish I had been the Tour Guide that day!

The Burlington Free Press quotes somebody from the admissions office who confirmed it.

I presume it’s not that rare to see a big name on campus. Michael J. Fox came last year with his son. Although our interaction was limited to a few minutes in BiHall, he was very nice (holding the door for me) and did not in any way draw attention to himself. I’m sure other students have anecdotes about similar low-key visits.
