Freshman Orientation Week contained a multitude of activities to welcome freshmen and international students. Some of my favorites included a candle lighting ceremony by Millersville's lake, rock climbing, and a free outdoor concert in nearby Lancaster.
Millersville is a dry campus, meaning that even if you are of drinking age you are not permitted to consume alcohol on campus. Today one in three college campuses in the US ban alcohol, according to Landmark Recovery.
Since Britain's drinking age is 18, many activities at our Freshman Orientation Week (which is called Fresher's Week in the UK) usually involve drinking. However, I've never been a big drinker myself, so I enjoyed taking part in activities that weren't centered around it.
