This month we spent some time with other halls.
With 1E2E2D, we made a ton of pudding and just spent some time hanging out. Pistachio was by far the LEAST sought after, but at least one student was willing and happy to take the rest home with them!
Sports is a fan favorite, and this month we had a huge open gym night with 3 other halls!
Lastly, as has become routine on 4th west, we enjoyed a nice grilled cheese night with 3rd East.
The combinations the students come up with they swear by, even if I'm a bit suspicious that they're as good as they say.
Before the students ever moved in this year, the RLAs were hard at work making decorations and planning events for the new juniors, to introduce them to campus, and returning seniors, to welcome them back!
Our RLAs (and a few seniors) take the Juniors of 4th West and 3rd Beall (our sibling hall) on a tour of the local hotspots on 9th Street! (see left)
After the 9th Street tour, 4th West and 3rd Beall reconvene to do some much loved ice breakers! (see below)
Everyone was dressed to the nines for our annual convocation (hosted on the Durham campus this year)!
To round out the first month of the year, 4th West had a Ramen night with our friends on 3rd East.
This month has been filled with fun events, new experiences, and meeting new people! School has officially started, and this extended will be a nice break before the school year starts properly, with classes starting to pick up the pace and students starting to find their footing in clubs, friend groups, and on their halls!
We can't wait to see what the future holds!
