Yesterday, each of us bloggers experienced Thanksgiving in our individual ways. Some of us went home, some celebrated at Yale, and some didn’t really celebrate at all. Wherever we were though, we each took the time to write down some of the things at Yale we are most thankful for, and share them with you. We’re thankful for …
Lifelong Yale friends
New Haven in the fall
Chicken Tender Thursdays
Being able to study a whole new language
Residential college communities that become like families
The range of student performances every weekend (and that most of them are free!)
New Haven in the winter
Suitemates from down the road
Suitemates from across the country
Suitemates from the other side of the world
Late night buttery runs
Residential College Masters
Being able to get to the dining hall from my room without going outside (got to love those basements!)
BAR Pizza (or Pepe’s, or Sally’s… the list goes on)
New Haven in the spring
The shuttle bus, for early morning classes on Science Hill
Bagel Brunch at The Slifka Center for Jewish Life
Winter coats for New Haven winters
Starr Reading Room
The fact that everyone looks good in blue
Comfy chairs. Everywhere.
New Haven in the summer
Late night suite conversations
Residential College Deans
Rare Manuscripts in Beinecke
New Haven coffee shops (for coffee… and hot chocolate)
But, most of all, Yale.
Boola Boola, Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours!
