While meeting new people usually makes the strongest impression, the activities and events that make up the weekend also have an impact on how much pre-frosh enjoy Harvard.

Even four years after her pre-frosh experience, Shafiq still recalls the excitement of Eleganza, a fashion and talent show run by Black C.A.S.T.

"I just remember thinking, 'These people are so talented and Harvard's so wonderful and I just want to be a part of this next year,'" Shafiq says.

Damaris I. Wortes '03 also loved Eleganza, but says she felt deceived.

"They had all these hot men there and then I found out they had recruited them from other schools," she says. "That's cheating."
