A moment to pause, reflect, and give thanks. Earlier this morning, members of the Bates community gathered at Veterans Plaza for a Veterans Day service led by @bates_multifaith Chaplain Rev. Rob Benson, honoring the dedication and sacrifice of those who have served in the armed forces. The morning’s service began with the clear and familiar call of “Reveille,” performed by Joel Keith ’27 of San Francisco, Calif. Vice President for Enrollment and Dean of Admission and Financial Aid Tori Neason Wallace, the daughter — and “proud Army brat” — of a U.S. Army colonel, shared reflections on growing up with a closeup view of her father’s service and sacrifice. “The privilege of my military upbringing is that I got to witness firsthand the strength of service members, and saw every day the values of discipline, integrity, others before self and respect in action,” said Wallace. Dustin Serrette, a National Guardsman and associate carpenter with Bates Facility Services, recited the “NCO Creed” and reflected on his pride in serving as a noncommissioned officer. “I always put my soldiers before myself. They eat before I eat. They come before me, no matter what I do.” We’re grateful for all the veterans within the Bates community and beyond.

In the 29th Annual Otis Lecture held last week, Bonnie Newsom, associate professor of anthropology and faculty associate at the Climate Change Institute at the University of Maine, spoke of erasure and resilience in Wabanaki culture. A member of the Penobscot Nation and an archaeologist, Newsom studies shell heaps in Maine to deepen understanding of the Wabanaki peoples and help illuminate thousands of years of cultural history. Despite the history of colonization and more recent effects caused by climate change and rising sea levels threatening these sites, Newsom offered a message of hope. “The work can strengthen cultural identity and confront heritage loss, and we can restore erased connections to Maine history and Wabanaki history and bring Wabanaki perspectives into archeological interpretation,” she said. The Otis Lecture is named in memory of Philip J. Otis ’95, a student committed to thinking about the human impact on the environment and the environmental impact on humans.

Junior Jeff Vidou caught the game-winning touchdown pass with 1:07 left in regulation and he joined us for a post-victory interview. #mesports #d3fb #d3football #gobates 07 Nov 2026 Bates campus is so pretty — you deserve the full picture. #batescollege #collegecampus #liberalartscollege #zoomout 06 Nov 2026 As Bobcats know, the Bates community has a funny way of finding you, even when you’re (very) far from home. After graduation, Jacqueline Coraci ’26 (right) moved away — 5,526 miles away from Lewiston, to be exact, to Yaoundé, Cameroon, to be a Fulbright English teaching assistant (ETA). In a lucky twist of fate, Coraci learned that her Fulbright mentor — a returning ETA tasked with supporting new Fulbrighters — would be Helena Raddock ’24, who had recently finished her first year as an ETA in Rwanda. The two hadn’t known each other in college, but when they met at New York’s JFK Airport before traveling to Yaoundé together, they immediately bonded over their Bates experiences. “When I saw Helena in the airport, it really made me feel some certain type of joyful way,” Coraci said. They would spend the following days exploring Cameroon together, with Raddock helping Coraci settle in and leading orientation sessions about life as an ETA. “We clicked immediately,” Raddock says. “There’s so much to talk about and so much about Bates we can bond over. We have a lot in common as well, which I think speaks to what a Batesie is, what we’re passionate about.” Read the full Bates News story at the link in our bio. #batescollege #batesalumni #fulbright 04 Nov 2026 The wait is over… introducing our new turf softball field‼️🥎 #GoBates #mesports #d3sb 04 Nov 2026 Happy Election Day! Throughout the day, @BatesVotes volunteers have been helping students across campus navigate Election Day and exercise their right to vote. That culture of participation and “informed civic action” runs deep at Bates. Participation in the 2022 midterm election earned Bates ALL IN (@allintovote) Campus Democracy Challenge honors for the highest student voting rate and highest voter registration rate in both Maine and the NESCAC. So let’s hope we can set another participation record for 2026! A big thank you to all our BatesVotes volunteers for the time, energy, and care they put into helping fellow students make their voices heard. Polls in the state of Maine close at 8 p.m. EST.

On Thursday evening, campus was crawling with superheroes, princesses, dinosaurs, witches, and more than a few sugar-fueled Bobcats. 🎃🍬 This year’s Bates Trick or Treat brought local families to campus for a night of costumes, community, and 70,000 pieces of candy spread across 65 stations. Our little trick-or-treaters also got the chance to meet our new Bobcat mascot — with plenty of high fives and friendly hugs to help them along their candy-collecting journey. Huge thanks to the @harwardcenter student fellows for helping to organize the evening, and to Greg Guidotti ’92, chief marketing officer for Ferrara Candy Company, and his classmates for helping make sure the candy bowls stayed very well stocked with Laffy Taffy, Jelly Belly, @sweetartscandy, Now and Laters, @nerdscandy, and more. And of course, thanks to the students, staff, and families who made the night such a fun one. Enjoy a few spooky scenes — including Trick-or-Treater-in-Chief @presgarryjenkins.
