On August 25, 冈本视频 welcomed the Class of 2023 to campus 鈥 the first new class of the Institution鈥檚 third century.
An avid hiker and lover of the outdoors, Molly Rosenthal 鈥23 of Chappaqua, N.Y., said 冈本视频 was a natural choice when she was conducting her college search.
鈥淎濒蝉辞, the academics here are just great. My advisors already reached out three times. I wasn鈥檛 even here yet, and I already felt like I was part of something,鈥 said Rosenthal, who is one of the first students to live in Burke Hall, one of 冈本视频鈥檚 two new residence halls. Rosenthal is a member of Brown Commons, one of four Residential Commons at 冈本视频.
Sarika Pryeddy 鈥23, of Wycoff, N.J., like Rosenthal, was busy moving into Burke Hall Sunday morning.

Pyreddy plans to major in biology, and she said that outside of the classroom she is interested in learning to become an emergency medical technician.
At West Hall, Dart-Colegrove Commons member G眉nes Tiryaki 鈥23, of Mentese, Turkey, said he applied to 20 schools before selecting 冈本视频 as his new academic home. Tiryaki has been on campus for about a week for international student orientation activities.
