There must be rumours though...

Not even little tid-bits of info: perhaps on what bands will be playing

I heard AOF was playing Nippising's frosh week and that made my sad-ish.

No rumours yet, it's too early. Although I know who is playing the Soc Sci concert (they're having their own this year)

I reeeeally doubt Nippising could pay for AOF at this point...they'd be expensive...and...who goes to Nippising?

Haha. A friend of mine is going and told me that and so I decided I was going to crash their frosh week.

Who's playing...out of curiosity.

Can you only attend things specific to your own faculty?

There is a faculty day (which, in my opinion, is concentrated awsome,) and a faculty night (double concentrated awesome,since it's shorter) , where you spend time doing hilarious things to yourself, your fellow students, and your faculty reps, and you know, meeting fellow first years in your program (and fellow upper years in your program) . But you do spend most of your week with your res/with SOCS.

I also feel compelled to mention - not only does your particular living group of choice compete in bedracers, airbands etc, your faculty will also be out to strut their stuff - so now you have twice as many people to cheer for.

I like how science totally didn't breakdown and collapse in upon its rider last year.

I know, that made me sad :(. But it was already way warped before that because we were going so fast

No rumours yet, but MacInsiders will have the scoop - you can count on it.

Hey!
I applied to Nippising and got in!

It was simply too far... and too damn cold up there. I hate the cold with a passion.

You needed like a 70% to get in! I remember it was 10% lower than Mac when I applied...

Yeah I'll be honest, I don't remember any of the entrance requirements. Except Queens wanted high 80's or something to that effect.

At a conference, McMaster shared a room with Nipissing. We loved them! They were soo cool and fun! And they had soooooo many GREAT ideas! We ended up creating cheers and constantly yelling TERNIP!
