stereos really? All they got is summer girl and nothing more. Good song though. and I really wish you wouldnt say free. Its more like included in your mac pass since you did pay the 100 bucks. First years will come to know... on campus nothing is really truly free.

True, but it makes you feel better when you see "free" than seeing $120 for 2 concerts and a bunch of other actitivities. That's how I see it anyway

It's more than just the Mac Connector. There's faculty day/night, concerts, swag, t-shirts, laundry bag, monday night social, etc...

If you don't get the macpass, you probably won't have that great of a welcome week. I HIGHLY recommend buying the macpass... even if you don't see the benefit, you'll understand when you start making friends and can't go to events with them because you didn't buy your macpass.

Yes, most people wear their PJ's... and then people line up through westdale and a lot of people will give each other kisses on the cheek.
For all you science people out therre... your science reps wear only their black welcome week labcoats... if you know what I mean

People do wear their PJs. You go around the McMaster neighbourhood and are greeted by the McMaster community with kisses/handshakes.

You can't really purchase the swag easily, especially the t-shirts. The Ill Scarlet concert is free for everyone but not the second concert.

There are some events not listed on this schedule! Capture The Flag on Tuesday evening in the field in front of BSB! IRC Karaoke on Wednesday evening in MDCL 1307! Bedracers on Sunday (Not move-in Sunday, but the second one) in front of Gilmore Hall!! All definitely worth attending!

They will probably tell you when those events are when you move into residence.
