Inter-Hall
Socials |
Name: Karen Blair
School: Franklin and Marshall College

Description:
This program is an ongoing series. Our building is 8 halls of
freshmen. My staff of RAs believes that it is important for the
residents to meet their building mates in addition to their hall mates.
We want them to recognize the people going in and out the door and
maybe make friends with someone up/downstairs. We want to randomly
pair the halls up for a brief social mixer in one of our 4 lobbies.
We can have 4 mixers on the same evening. We hope to do one
or two of these programs a month.
Instructions/Things Needed:
Snacks, maybe a rented movie, possibly craft supplies depending on
what we want to do at each one. Our first one will be
"Cookies and Milk and a letter home." This will be
about a week after classes start. In each lobby we will have
cookies and milk and encourage the residents to write letters to their
friends or family at home.
Other Considerations:
This is just a mixer opportunity for residents to meet each other and
build social bridges between halls. But even if a handful of
people participate at least those community bridges have been built
and they can introduce their new friends. |
