First Freshman Week Begins

Mon., Sep. 15, 1930

The faculty and College YMCA led what they claimed to be Dickinson's first-ever Freshman Week program beginning Monday, September 15th, one week before the start of term.  Over the course of the week, students learned the Dewey decimal system, were given physical and psychological examinations, met faculty and prominent student leaders, and enjoyed a doggie roast.
