I really enjoyed the parents' day of O week.

Move-In: That was the easiest move ever. You just pull up to the dorm. The upperclassmen are there with giant bins on wheels. They put your stuff in the bins and deliver it to your room! I wasted all that time labeling everything with son's name, dorm name, house name, room number for nothing.

There is brunch, there are clubs/organizations tables outside, there is the
big send off. Somehow we were up in front in the chapel. The march to the
gate with the weepy mothers of daughters. The acapella singing groups and
the dorm houses greeting the new first yrs as they march to their class
photo. There is casual dinner for parents.
