Signature Events Queen Week During the first full week of February, PW
goes royal- it’s their annual spirit week, Queen Week! Each section competes at various events throughout the week- whichever section gets the most points by Friday has their freshman nominee crowned as the queen! The Roommate Game trivia, a section scavenger hunt, and the section ice cream eating contest are all annual traditions, but the biggest part of the week is also the most noticeable- during Queen Week, PW is home to the campus’ fiercest section decorating competition. Each Weasel pulls out all the stops to turn her section into another country, another decade, even a board game. The week culminates, in Notre Dame tradition, with a semi-formal dance.
“
I came a semester late to Notre Dame my freshman year, but once I arrived on campus, I immediately felt at home. I was welcomed so warmly by all of the PW girls. I am so lucky to have buit such meaningful friendships that I will cherish even after graduation.
