<p>In terms of people playing out on the lawns…</p>
<p>Yeah, people do actually do that. To see it, you’ll likely need to go up to Westhampton Green, up by North Court and South Court, and you’ll have a much better chance of seeking people frolic (likely boys playing frisbee or football and girls laying out in bikinis) in the spring. I’m thinking that even though it’s probably still warm in Richmond at the moment (I don’t know myself, I’m in London, where it’s currently raining), people are in a <em>fall</em> mindset. During the spring, when we get an occasional warmer day, people are out everywhere doing everything imaginable when they don’t have to be in class. Why? It’s because they haven’t just spent a several month long summer outside, and they’re not glorying in the fact that winter is nearly over. That’s my take on it anyway, although if you get a particularly nice early fall day, you can usually see people reading outside on the lawn.</p>
<p>If I was back on campus on a Saturday, my day would probably not even start until noon, then it would be a slow getting ready process, down to Dhall for brunch/lunch, and then, yes, probably out running errands or doing something fun with a group of friends off campus. This is a school, after all. We are entitled to having a bit of fun away from it :)</p>
<p>And yeah, what Boston88 said with regard to the fields being far away from anything besides random apartments and LoRo is definitely correct.</p>
