CB Spotlight: Week of 12/9/2013

Freshman-Sophomore Dinner Buddies

Hosted by: Marissa D'Ambrosio, Austin & Sneha Kallukaran, Stanford
CB Category: Unitas / Veritas
Objective: Have the Freshmen from Stanford and Sophomores from Austin mingle over a meal in the SPIT

Sneha shared the following about how she and Marissa planned the CB:

We wanted a way for Freshman and Sophomores to be able to engage in a relaxed setting. We thought it would be neat if the sophomores could share things that they have learned about their time at Villanova with the underclassmen. Marissa and I created a sheet of ice breaker like questions that could get conversation started - (i.e. What was your favorite class at Villanova? Have you engaged in study abroad through the school?) We found a clear spot in the Spit and set up the table speed dating style. Freshmen could sit on one side, and sophomores on the other so they could ask each other questions. We planned on rotating the seats every few minutes so that way everyone could get an introduction. It was a fun and relaxed evening!
