Class of 2020 - Skidmore College
Class of 2020
September 2016
Welcome to Skidmore and the beginning of what we hope will be a rewarding four years. The New
Student Orientation schedule outlines the next week of activities, some of which are academic and
intellectual, others purely fun. Please review the schedule thoroughly.
As you might gather, all of the events have been carefully planned and organized to help you make a
successful transition to Skidmore College, which is why your presence at all events is expected, not
optional. We’re confident that you will participate with the enthusiasm and commitment that is already
characteristic of the Class of 2020.
Many members of the Skidmore community – faculty, staff and students – have come together during
this orientation period to give you the best possible introduction to the academic, residential and cocurricular experience at Skidmore. We are a strong community and proud of our interrelationships and
shared commitments. We hope that as you participate with us in these orientation discussions and
activities, you too will begin to grasp the significance of ‘community’ at Skidmore, and will be eager to
make your own contributions over the next four years.
The First-Year Experience Office is open to you throughout the year, so please stop by to introduce
yourself, to discuss any concerns you may have, or to share your experiences and ideas about
attending college. We look forward to meeting you!
