Love the pictures - it feels like yesterday that I was moving into Patrick 3rd floor - I wish it was!   Good Luck, class of 2011; enjoy every second, it goes by in a flash.  Oh, and go abroad!!

As a parent and employee with nine years helping on this day, I see Move-In Day demonstrate all that Gettysburg College really stands for – caring and acceptance, alumni and friends giving back, working hard together, having fun, meeting new people, growth and learning, and most of all – beginning a new life experience of belonging to a great College!  Good luck to the Class of 2011 – great achievements are expected.

Can we get weather like this EVERY year for Move-In Day?! Gotta love low 60s, overcast but dry! Well planned, Orientation organizers!

After watching the online video of the First year Move In and Convocation, I thought it would be appropriate to send you an e-mail to say that I thought it was very well put together.

This was just what I was hoping to find! Thank you ... Now I can direct the rest of our family to the school site to get a sense of what these last few days have been like for my son. I especailly enjoyed the Convocation - full of tradition and beauty! If only I'd had MY camera! If any other parents have digital pictures of Convocation- especailly Penn Hall in all it's spendor, I'd love to have you send some to me to share with grandparents.
If that's possable send them via e-mail to:

I'm so glad my son chose this wonderful school!

I was so excited to see my stepdaughter in a photo during field day festivities while perusing the college website.  After the long journey from New England to drop her off for her freshman year...seeing the campus for the first time was very impressive.   It was rather wonderful when 3 band members/students were there to help me move her in for band practice one week early... it was very hot and she was on the 3rd floor so we were very THANKFUL !   Gettysburg College seems to be a very special place ... I'm so happy she has chosen to begin her new adult life of learning and adventure in such an historically significant and picturesque setting!  Thank you for posting the photos!!!

Moving Day pictures reminded me of my moving day to G-burg in 1957 as a FRESHMAN. Things have changed for the better in my view.
