It sounds very 1776 of us to say “the freshmen are coming.” But they are—and in droves. Our wrap up of the best tweets from the first day of #welcomeweek includes upperclassmen shocked by “herds of freshmen” as well as new students first contact with the sometimes pretentious nature of the student body. See all the tweets after the jump.
You’ve managed to sum up all of our feelings about welcome week in just one five-word tweet. Kudos to you. How many weeks until the freshmen stop traveling in packs? You’re students, not animals.

Isn’t Lexus not even considered a luxury car anymore? We kid. Get used to the pretentiousness.

Oh, the po-po. They seem cute and all now, until of course they tail you while you walk to an off campus party.
To get your tweets here for the whole world campus to see, hashtag #welcomeweek.
