#repost @amherstcollege ・・・ Orientation 2019 . All incoming new students participate in a two and a half day immersive experience that affords the opportunity to create connections in small group settings with other new students. LEAPs, which stands for Learn, Explore, Activate, and Participate, happen both on- and off-campus and focus on various topics of interest. . In the program called “Taking the LEAP,” students combine moments of outdoor adventure, fun, and play, with personal reflection and dialogue with peers. After a series of games on the quad, at the end of the first day students exercise trust by following one another blindfolded for a short walk in the woods. .
