What was the significance of the American Declaration of Independence in 1776? Why does it matter today, 250 years later? Some lucky members of the Bowdoin community were able to join the McKeen Center for the What Matters kickoff event for the 2026-27 academic year. Participants enjoyed a dinner conversation with Professors Andy Rudalevige and Paul Franco about America's founding document.

We got these beautiful pictures and an update from Maya Khalil, one of our McKeen Center Fellowship recipients this summer! 🤩✨

“For this fellowship, I go to farms to glean (harvest surplus produce for donation) three mornings per week. I love working with vegetables and being outside! I also love meeting so many amazing volunteers who are so dedicated to their work. Midcoast Hunger Prevention Program is a great place to be, and I’m so grateful to everyone here who has made my experience educational and fun!”
