A Closer Look: First Days

Williams’ first-year orientation is designed to build community from the moment students arrive on campus. A carefully planned week of activities, First Days covers a lot of ground, introducing students to each other (class photo, 1), to their surroundings (Williams Outdoor Orientation for Living as First Years, 2), to their entry-mates and junior advisors (Entry Snacks, 3), to the staff and faculty who will support and guide them (President Adam Falk, 4), and to issues they may confront (alcohol awareness programming, 5).
