STUDENTS
New students arrive at Pomona College on Sunday, August 24th, 2008,
between 8:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. During your first day on campus, you will have the
opportunity to move into your dorm room and meet your sponsors; parents
orientation will also take place on Sunday. Orientation Adventure leaders and
Residence Hall Sponsors will be on
hand to check you in and help out with moving. Your morning will be
free to begin decorating and settling into your new room. Following Placement Exams
on Monday, your sponsors will lead you down to the Sontag Greek Theater, where
you will be introduced to your OA leaders and the other participants in your
trip. After dinner, students can participate in organized games, watch a
movie, and make any remaining preparations for their trip. A reasonably
early bedtime is recommended, as some trips will leave before dawn on Tuesday.
The Orientation Adventure trip is the centerpiece of a week of activities
designed to help first-year students make friends and transition into college
life. See the complete
Orientation Week schedule for more details on other activities.
