Freshmen Pre-orientation program dates and recommendations

<p>Does anyone have the dates for FOOT (I think that is what it is called)? What is the program like? Thanks!</p>

<p>FOOT begins August 17. See letter: <a href=“http://www.yale.edu/foot/FOOTFirstLetter.pdf[/url]”>http://www.yale.edu/foot/FOOTFirstLetter.pdf&lt;/a&gt; on FOOT website: [FOOT</a> - Yale University’s Freshman Outdoor Orientation Trips](<a href=“http://www.yale.edu/foot/index.html]FOOT”>http://www.yale.edu/foot/index.html)</p>

<p>I would just say that if you are not very athletic/in shape, take one of the easier ones. My daughter is a slender (i.e. not overweight or anything) but unathletic kid. She did one of the “middle-difficult” ones, and she struggled a bit (though the leaders were very nice and kind to her).</p>

<p>Be aware that FOOT may be different from your other camping experiences. No tents, for example.</p>
