Bowdoin Boxes

I saw somewhere that Bowdoin was sending out “Bowdoin Boxes” to accepted students. I believe it was to make up for the canceled Admitted Students’ Weekend. I am just super curious about what was in them. And wondering if other schools are doing the same.

Hopefully Lobster !

That would be a good enticement!

My daughter will be attending Bowdoin this fall, and she received one of the Bowdoin Boxes a few days ago! The box contained lots of fun items with a Bowdoin/Maine theme like a water bottle, beanie/hat, pure maple candy, pine cone ornament, campus map, calendar, polar bear origami, etc. Bowdoin has done such a fantastic job of keeping the incoming class engaged and informed, and the class of 2024 is already connecting through group chats and facebook. Go Polar Bears!

@capaldifan Thank you for sharing that! Sounds like an awesome package! My son didn’t end up applying to Bowdoin because he applied ED somewhere else. But I love Bowdoin and was so curious :wink:
