Chestnut Hill College Top Questions

Describe your favorite campus traditions.

Nicole

My favorite campus tradition is that every year, during the first week of December, the college gets decorated for Christmas! The best part is that every class gets a different part of campus to decorate according to a theme that their class chooses. The Freshmen class gets the Dining Hall to decorate. The Sophomores get outside in the Piazza. The Junior class decorates the Rotunda in St. Joseph's Hall. The Senior class decorates the main hallway in Fournier. Each class picks a theme and spends all night decorating! It is such a fun event on campus, and it gets everyone in the Holiday spirit.

My school is best known for it's architectural design, which closely resembles Hogwarts in the Harry Potter book series. It is also best known for small class sizes and the importance of one on one interaction with teachers.

It isn't. It's known for not really being known. Particularly, if someone does recognize the name, the first thing that comes out of their mouth is a comment about it being an all-girls school and nothing else, not even where it is (Philadelphia). Chestnut Hill hasn't been an all girls school for well over five years now and that just goes to show how it has done nothing to make a name for itself, atleast positively.
