Lives.Yale is at once atradition, a companyof scholars, a societyof friends.Yale: A Short History, by George W. Pierson(Professor, Yale Department of History, 1936–73)
First-Year Diaries.Nishanth KrishnanSan Diego, CA(Starting out at Yale)From the moment theyarrive, first-years areable to dive into all thatYale has to offer. In partthis is because so manyprograms are in placespecifically to welcomeand guide them— frompreorientation to firstyear counselors (Yaleseniors) to First-YearSeminars (small classestaught by some ofYale’s most prominentprofessors) to parties.We caught up with threefirst-years near the endof their spring semesters.Here they share advice;reflect on their ownexpectations; discusstheir summer plans; andrecord a day in theirlives during the first year.Anticipated MajorMolecular, Cellular, & Developmental Biology“From the outside, Yale’s academic,cultural, and social opportunities felta bit overwhelming.

FroCos canplay any role—friend, confidant,adviser! I think all my first-yearpeers would agree that FroCosare invaluable, and they make thetransition far less intimidating.On First-Year Seminars: I’mtaking Ancient Medicine andDisease. We’re a tight-knit group,which allows for personal, engaging conversations on the medicalphilosophy of antiquity. We’veexplored surgical manuscriptsfrom Egypt, flipped throughfourteenth-century textbooks,and observed the archived brainsamples bequeathed by the fatherof neurosurgery—and formerYalie—Harvey Cushing.On extracurriculars: One ofthe most memorable momentsfrom my first semester was theextracurricular bazaar, wherehundreds of student groupsintroduce themselves to the firstyear class. I decided I wanted tobe more involved in volunteeringand the New Haven community,but that doesn’t preclude mefrom joining a campus magazineor an activism group if I pick upnew interests over time.On summer plans: InNovember, a friend invited meto an event at the medical school.At first, I felt out of place amongall the graduate students. But Istruck up a conversation with aYale professor and found out thatyears ago he was also a first-yearin TD! We got to know each otherbetter, and I later interviewedto join his lab this summer, whereI’ll be working on cutting-edgeimmunology research. I’mstudying a process that allowsimmune cells to produce diverseantibodies to fight di erentpathogens. I’m excited to applyconcepts I’ve learned in classto this project.Cultural Connections(CC) introduces firstyears to Yale’s culturalresources and exploresthe diversity of studentexperiences on campus,with emphasis on theexperiences of studentsof color and on issuesrelated to racial identity.FOCUS on New Haventakes first-years on asix-day exploration ofthe urban landscapewithin and beyond theYale campus.First-Year OutdoorOrientation Trips(FOOT) are six-day andfour-day back packingtrips for all levels inthe mountains andhills of Vermont, NewHampshire, NewYork, Massachusetts,and Connecticut,led by upper-levelstudents who haveextensive training inkeeping FOOTiessafe and healthy inthe backcountry.First-YearCounselors TheFirst-Year Counselor(FroCo) Program wasestablished in 1938and has been anintrinsic and essentialcomponent of Yale’sadvising systemfor first-years eversince. Each first-yearstudent is assigneda counselor who actsas a guide throughthe transition tolife at Yale. FroCosare a diverse groupof seniors who arefriends/mentors/problem-solvers—but not supervisorsor disciplinarians.All first-years exceptthose in TimothyDwight, BenjaminFranklin, PauliMurray, and Sillimanlive together onOld Campus duringtheir first year, andFroCos live amongthem. (First-yearsare grouped in OldCampus residencesby college affiliation,which allows allfirst-years no mattertheir college affiliation to get to knoweach other.)Harvest begins at theYale Farm, and thengroups of first-yearsled by upper-levelstudents head off tospend five days onfamily-owned organicfarms in Connecticut.Orientation forInternational Students(OIS) is a four-dayprogram designed toease the transition ofinternational studentsto the United Statesby familiarizingthem with academicand social life at Yale.It is organized andled by internationalupper-level studentswith support from theOffice of InternationalStudents and Scholars.9

Anatomy of a Residential College.(Yale has no dormitories)Even before first-yearsarrive they are assignedto one of Yale’s fourteenresidential colleges. Morethan mere dormitories,the colleges are richlyendowed with libraries,dining halls, movietheaters, darkrooms,climbing walls, ceramicsstudios, “butteries” a.k.a.snack bars, and manyother kinds of facilities.Rather than groupingstudents according tointerests, majors, or sports,each college is home toits own microcosm of thestudent body as a whole.So if a certain percentageof Yale’s students hail fromthe west coast or abroad,you can expect to seeroughly that percentagein each college.Yalies identify with theircollege throughout theirlives, meeting one anotherin far-off places notonly as an Eli but as aSaybrugian, Sillimander,or Morsel as well. Atruly little-known factis that while studentsalways have the optionof switching collegesthroughout their yearsat Yale, scant few do.Read the over-the-topboostering by membersof each college in thefirst-year welcome issueof the Yale Daily Newsand you’ll understandwhy— they all thinkYale’s collegesystem isthe early20th-centurybrainchild ofphilanthropistand alumnusEdward S.Harkness (B.A. 1897). Archi tecture critic Paul Goldbergertells us in Yale in New Haven:Architecture and Urbanism (YaleUniversity, 2004) that Harkness,like many alumni of his generation, took pleasure in Yale’sgrowing international reputation and stature but worriedthat as the University grew, theclose bonds between studentsthat had meant so much tohim would diminish. In 1927Harkness and his friend,fellow Eli and architect JamesGamble Rogers (B.A. 1889),made a “secret mission” toEngland to study Oxfordand Cambridge universities’collegiate system. “The mencame back convinced,” writesGoldberger, that dividing theundergraduate body into aseries of residential colleges“was the best route to preservingthe network of Yale-inspiredconnections” that had been soimportant to them through outtheir lives. In the fall of 1933the first seven of the fourteencolleges opened.12 livesThe Courtyard The image ofthe secret garden was architectJames Gamble Rogers’s inspirationfor the courtyards around whicheach residential college is designed.According to legendary Yale arthistorian Vincent Scully, Rogerstransformed Yale into a looseassociation of “little paradises.”they’re the best!13

Amongthe seminars she has taught areCivilization of the Early MedievalWest; Brehon Law; Languageand Society of Early Ireland; andthe History of Sport.
