Students listening to Prof. Pinsker during his lecture.
On Day One, students got up bright and early to go to breakfast in the HUB. They began their learning experience in Denny Hall, where history classes are usually held during the college semester. During their first class, they discussed the texts On Being Brought From Africa (1773) by Phillis Wheatley, and the Declaration of Independence (1776) by Thomas Jefferson, while the Age of Enlightenment was the main topic in this lecture. Afterwards, the students went downstairs to another classroom where they discussed Subtext with Professor Mealy. After this discussion, the students were taken to lunch by the interns and grad RAs, again at the HUB. After lunch, the students attended a Workshop alongside the staff members, where they registered their laptops and other devices on the campus network, and some also completed the Kline Center online fitness orientation, which is required to go to the gym. After taking a campus tour through admissions, the staff accompanied the students to dinner, and all of us went to Massey’s, the ice cream shop down the road shortly after. Afterward, some of us watched the Home Run Derby in one of the High Street common rooms, while other students studied hard at work. Overall, a very successful day and lots of fun too!
