Pronouns: She/Her/Hers What is your favorite WPI tradition? The bridge crossing. WPI students cross Earle Bridge twice with their entire class. The first time, as an incoming student during New Student Orientation (NSO). The second time, as a graduating senior on their way to Commencement. In both instances, the WPI community gathers around to cheer on the students. Either welcoming them or giving them a big send off, our students feel the support of this community!

Pronouns: She/Her/Hers What is your favorite spot on WPI's campus?My favorite spot on campus is WPI's Higgins House--especially the formal gardens and meditation pond. The Tudor-style home itself, modeled by its original owner after English castles, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The grounds and gardens make you feel like you stepped into a time warp to the old English countryside. It's a quiet, beautiful spot to take a peaceful moment.
