About EA

Effective altruism is about answering one simple question: how can we best improve the world?

Most of us want to improve the world. We see suffering, injustice, and death and feel moved to do something about it. But figuring out what that “something” is, let alone actually doing it, can be a difficult and disheartening challenge. Effective altruism is a response to this challenge.

We seek to foster a community of dedicated and ambitious change makers committed to improving the world.

This growing social movement is committed to combining compassion with reasoning and evidence so that our choices do the most good possible.

Effective Altruism at Midd aims to offer students the resources and support to figure out how they can best help others, combining our compassion with evidence and reasoning.

Weekly Seminars

Join us on Thursdays as we tackle, wrangle, and reflect on the question of how we can use our resources to help others do the most good.
