On April 5, 2023, the Junior Class of 2024 underwent a day-long retreat on campus. Juniors were divided into groups led by PALS (junior service organization) members. Throughout the retreat, students completed many activities from ranking the best senior experiences to listening to faculty talks about faith and leadership. Later that evening, the Junior Cross Mass was held to...
In a calendar sent out to prospective students last spring, Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota proposed an idea they called “the College Fair Game” that involved receiving points for completing certain tasks.
