Former U.S. senator praises Colby, stresses need for philanthropy

Former U.S. senator praises Colby, stresses need for philanthropy: "WATERVILLE -- At a time when the U.S. is the most powerful nation in the world economically but our standing in the world is lower than it has ever been, it is critically important that we learn about people whose circumstances are different than ours.

That was a message former U.S. Sen. George J. Mitchell touted Monday night as part of 'Burst the Bubble, Build a Bridge,' a weeklong program designed by Colby College students to help strengthen ties between Colby and the community."
