Ten Thoughts You Have Trying to Get to Class When Tour Groups Bombard Campus
The third (and, as some say, “real”) Dimensions program is this weekend, which means that tons of ’18s will be all up in your business on Thursday and Friday. They’ll show up in your classes and run into you in the bathroom, but mostly they’ll just be EVERYWHERE in the pre-schmobs known as tour groups. Plan a little extra time to get to class, or just plow through crowds of people on the way to your 11. It’s Dimensions time, and here’s what you’ll be thinking.
1. At first, you’re all excited to see them: “YAY ’18s, SO CUTE OMG COME TO DARTMOUTH!”
2. Then you realize they’re taking up the entire entrance in Collis, and you just want breakfast.
3. You spot your good friend leading a tour: “Time to distract him/her!”
4. Damn, they’re good.
5. Breakfast in hand, you walk out past Robo lawn…well, this was a mistake.
6. Then you have to follow a huge group down the sidewalk in the direction of your class, for which you’re already late.
7. You decide to cut through the library. Big mistake.
8. Rolling into class, there are way too many new faces in the room: “Overachieving ’18s, I’m already sick of you!”
9. Ah well, you still love ‘em.
10. No, seriously, come to Dartmouth.
