Describe a day on campus you'll never forget.

The first day of classes this semester was a day I'll never forget. I got to campus (as a senior, I now live off-campus) and walked through the quad to get to the dining hall for lunch. I saw a huge group of people, tents, and what looked like a celebration. Villanova was celebrating our first day of classes by giving out free food, free t-shirts, free water bottles, and free frisbees. In the middle of hanging around the quad enjoying all my new freebies, there was suddenly a flash mob! Students, faculty, and even basketball coach Jay Wright and school president Father Peter broke out into a choreographed dance to Katy Perry's "Firework." I don't know that any other school goes that much out of their way to make students enjoy their day.
