| one of my best friends is just finishing up her frosh year at haverford. she LOVES it. she loves the honor code, the community feel, the lack of real rules, the "nerdy" kids. she says monday-thursday afternoon everyone works their A**ES off. then the weekend its liz a zoo if you wnat it to be, or there are tons of more reserved people who just chill out. i put nerdy in quotations because the school is a lot of smart jocks. dont take jocks the wrong way because i just mean it in the sense that A LOT of people do one or multiple varsity sports. shes varisty bball and lax and the other girl from my HS who went is soccer and lax.
i cant wait to go visit her next year. i stopped by there at the end of march to pick her up for easter and liked the little bit of campus that i saw. definetly the most unique college experiences i have heard from all of my friends. customs week sounds AWESOME. hahah im kind of in love with her school. everyone was like wow, shes so smart why is she going to a school that noones heard of. but thennnn they look it up and are like wow! if i had known about it 2 years ago i probably wouldve applied.
all that being said. you REALLY have to feel comfortable with the honor code.
well this just kind of turned into an endorsement for haverford, sorry! oh and about the city.. she says the only time shes ever been there is to travel to come home. so while its there, theres so much to do on campus that you dont even need it |
