<p>Has anyone received any information about the Freshman Connections Retreat and Escape Retreat? I was just surfing the Villanova website and found information on these. It looks like it's run by the Campus Ministry.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>newdawn- i recall my dd getting a mailing about the Connections event last year, maybe in June? She couldn't attend due to job committment, but the students who went loved it, she said. It's a nice way to meet people before orientation starts, but don't worry if you can't go. They do such a fantastic job with orientation, (even starting with a personal letter later in the summer from your orientation counselor) that everybody gets to bond in a great group right away.</p>
<p>Thanks, galwaymom! We have heard great things about the orientation. My D can't wait to get started.</p>
