Things I Wish I Knew Before Coming to University of Richmond

  • Orientation week isn't actually “dry;” go to the frat parties.

  • You have to buy the kind of power cord the school tells you to buy.

  • If your dorm isn't air-conditioned, bring several fans.

  • Try to meet as many people as possible.

  • Bring lots of collared shirts; the dress code here is preppy.

  • The football team sucks and no one goes to the games.

  • You will get a lot of homework.

  • Boatwright Library isn't really for studying.

  • The on-campus dining selection isn't very big.

  • The Spinning Your Web program isn't very cool.
