Life at Northfield Mount Hermon is incredibly busy and weekends are no exception. The Student Activities Office may be offering a movie, dance, or air hockey tournament. There may also be something bigger planned like a hypnotist, video game night, or after hours bowling trip. Or you can just get together with your friends in the Blake Student Center and play ping pong or pool while enjoying some food from the snack bar.
Of course, there are big campus-wide events too. There might be a play, dance performance, or music recital at the Rhodes Arts Center. Maybe the Hoggers are playing...basketball, soccer, or water polo? It just could be that one of the major events at NMH is happening like DwightNight, a special dinner and dance, or HoggerFair, an outdoor festival with music, food, and games.
Maybe you want to go off campus for a while? There are organized trips to the Ingleside Mall, Cinemark and Hadley Mall, dances at other boarding school, and more. It could be a big thing, with your entire dorm or class getting into the act or just you and a friend hopping on the NMH activity vehicle to go into Greenfield to shop or have dinner out.
Once in a while, we have what we call closed weekends, during which you stay on campus. Maybe it’s to cool things down for some quiet study (before finals!) or maybe it’s for one of our big, all-school celebrations, like Founder’s Day Weekend.
But no matter what’s going on, it’s bound to be fun and interesting—it’s Northfield Mount Hermon! Check the schedule for this weekend.
