After nearly three months away from Haverford, it's easy to yearn for all the wonderful things that the college has to offer. Between stellar academics, an Honor Code that calls for campus-wide trust and social responsibility, and incredibly smart and passionate people with a wide array of interests, Haverford is truly a top notch place to call home. Since summer is slowly dwindling down and fall semester is lingering just around the corner, here are 14 things you're (hopefully) excited for this semester at Haverford:
1) Customs
Even if you're an upperclassmen who isn't serving on a Customs Team this year, there's nothing more exciting than welcoming a group of new First Year students to campus!
2) Screw Date
Along the same lines, who wouldn't love to watch those same First Years embrace the uncomfortable tradition that is Screw Date?
3) Lunt Cafe
"Summer" is a term that can basically be equated with "Oreogasm and Nacho deprivation"
4) 80s Dance
It's groovy, man.
5) Classes Starting
As it turns out, college is, like, kind of about the education, so taking cool classes is, you know, cool.
6) Being with friends again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do the exclamation points capture the excitement or nah?!?!?!
7) The Stir Fry Bar at the DC
We all missed Jeff. You're lying if you say you don't.
8) The Honor Code
It's been, like, really hard going for this long without being able to trust, concern, and respect people the way you could at Haverford.
9) FAB First Friday
So hype for going into Philadelphia and doing all the cool things!
10) Late nights in Magill
Just a joke. You know, mostly.
11) Intellectual conversations all the time
Sometimes they can be draining, but discussing things that matter in the world is probably one of the coolest things we do at Haverford, both in the classroom and out
12) The Nature Trail
Running (or, in my case, walking) around the Nature Trail is so great!
13) Pinwheel Day
Please, please, please don't mess it up this year, thx!!!
14) Haverford in general
I don't think this warrants an explanation.
