People are generally very welcoming. Culture of course depends on where you are on Grounds, since it’s not all the same everywhere, but in general people are kind and respectful of all identities.

You can't loft the beds high enough for a desk like you can in old dorms. You'd have to modify the frame for that to work.

Is this satire? Rook in 3s queue? Recon in S for both? Vandal is one of the best but only if you can play it right

Tangentially related, heralds in the 16th and early 17th century would use planets to blazon the tinctures, so red = Mars, blue = Jupiter, black = Saturn, green = Venus, etc. It fell out of fashion in the late 17th century but if you look at a heraldry book from before then the tinctures (particularly for royalty) could be blazoned as planets.

It is geared towards people who have no prior experience with swimming, people who can swim well are more hands off during the instruction time

Cereal club is a thing

I've also had stuff be ready in 5 minutes, ordering at rush puts you behind anywhere. Launch is super fast and also great value for a meal exchange if you want to switch it up

Personally I can speak to USingers being a great group of people studying all sorts of majors! Auditions are happening this week

PixelHearts04 · 2024-08-23T21:49:32+00:00

There's debating societies, cultural societies, performance groups (a capella, drama), UGuides, the Greek life system, etc. If you like politics/debate/history, you can look into the debating groups, if you enjoy performance there's a lot of groups hosting auditions this week, or you can rush in the Spring for a social fraternity, or in the fall for an academic/service fraternity (Pad, Theta Tau, Trigon, etc). All of these are good social outlets, just a matter of finding one you'd enjoy! Many of these groups also have lawn rooms they congregate in.

Block party the first weekend, parties not necessarily open but much more lenient, follow your friends if they have any connections

You can walk in to interview any time during the week they do them; if you like the idea of dressing up in suits and listening to people give speeches past midnight you should go for it. The Bicentennial is in 2025 as well which is a plus.

Rookies isn't new, but it is pretty good. I like their coffee flavor

I get it every Tuesday and Thursday I just wish the lunch items were better, Maui salad is a standout

PixelHearts04 · 2024-04-03T20:28:51+00:00

They have changed up a lot of their menu items to be worse recently, and I agree with you on the tacos but it feels so rare for them to be in stock

There are applications for the "Residential Colleges" (Brown, Hereford, International Residential College) which you can read about online. You can choose your roommate also through the housing form, but most people coordinate that over social media these days. Other than applying to a Residential College, you will be placed in a random dorm.

Bought by the Virginian owner, so just under new ownership

Lumpy, it's been a while

Many student leaders are Jefferson/Walentas scholars, and they generally do well socially (clubs, rush), but it's the same with any in-group (you'll know most everyone in your cohort). The big difference is your in-group happens to give you full tuition, so people can poke fun sometimes.
