Rugby has a huge following. The team, though it's a club, is the largest team by far on campus. It helps that it is a Bi-Co team and has members from Haverford College. The acapella groups are all popular and the improv comedy group, Lighted Fools, is a big hit. Their shows are always packed. Sports teams get very little support outside of the athletics world. As a part of one of the Christian fellowships on campus, it can get a bit depressing at some of the meetings when very few people show up. It's hard to get people motivated to put their studying down during the week. Students in dorms would leave their doors open if they could - the doors have hinges that automatically close and because they're so old, they're also very heavy. A common "tea," or hall event, is a "door stop tea" and we all paint bricks that are meant to act as door stops on the hall. Still, it depends. Some halls are very open and active, while others are quiet and introverted. The theater program is apparently very strong, though I've only been to a couple of shows. The dating scene is emotionally unhealthy. I met my closest friends on my freshman hall or in the fellowship I'm a part of. I can't be awake at 2am on Tuesday because I have crew at 5am on Wednesday. If I were, though, it would be to write a paper. Traditions include Parade Night, where the freshwomen get soaked with water as they run through a crowd of upperclasswomen; Lantern Night, where the freshwomen are given their lanterns; Step Sing, which happens three times a year and involves some serious songs and some comical songs; Hell Week, where the freshwomen choose a sophomore to Hell them for a week of goofing off and letting loose; and May Day, where everyone on campus throws down the books for a day of bathing in the sun on Merion Green and dancing to live music. People can party every weekend, but large campus-wide parties only happen a handful of times each year. There are no sororities here. Last weekend I went to a party on Friday night, went to a coffee shop on Saturday, went to church on Sunday and took part in plenary, our self governance association's reaffirmation of the constitution. On a Saturday night I often choose to stay in and watch a movie with friends. There are also campus events available, such as movie screenings, coffee houses, comedy shows, performances, etc. Off campus there are bars, coffee shops, and Philadelphia!!!
