VOLUNTEER FEST 2017 Be part of something truly special at Brandeis — Volunteer Fest! For the eighth consecutive year, the Departments of Community Service and Orientation are partnering to create an opportunity for students to engage in service throughout the greater Waltham and Boston communities and leave a lasting impact on themselves and our neighbors. Join us for another weekend of service followed by engaging dialogue, reflections, food and freebies! Participants will partner with upperclass students, faculty and staff to address community needs. Please contact Gianna Petrillo ’19 at gpetrillo@brandeis.edu with questions about Volunteer Fest 2017. Be sure to check the Orientation website at www.brandeis.edu/ orientation for Volunteer Fest updates and to register for the program.
RESIDING ON CAMPUS Most first-year students are assigned to double, natural or lofted triple rooms in one of two residence quadrangles (quads), Massell Quad or North Quad. Both quads allow for single and mixed-gender floors. Additionally, there are laundry facilities in both residence quads.
Massell Quad Encircling Yakus Pond, Massell Quad consists of four residence halls: Shapiro, Usen, Deroy and Renfield. Students living in Massell have a variety of living options. Overlooking Massell Quad is the Hassenfeld Conference
