What's New With U? Week 1

Photo of camp in amphi

With the ring of the gong in the Amphitheater, Usdan was back!

While we had a rainy start, the sun came out for the rest of the week, allowing students to find joy across campus, from the pools to the Organic Garden.

Returning students reunited with friends and favorite staff from last summer, while new students discovered the ins and outs of the grounds for the very first time.

For all of us, the first week of Summer 2022 could perhaps be summed up in one action word:

Discovering.

  • Discovering new strengths
  • Discovering our creative voices
  • Discovering shortcuts and new parts of the campus
  • Discovering new friends who have similar interests
  • Discovering new professional artists at Festival
  • Discovering new techniques and skills we will build on this summer
  • Discovering the new U designed by a Usdan student (watch the full reveal HERE!)
  • Discovering the theme of Summer 2022: Water

We look forward to discovering, all summer long.
