"One example of many of the times I went on fun adventures with a friend/friends. My friends and I went around Boston and walked around the Boston Common and Garden then came back took this picture of my friend and I around Fenway". - Kasey Jiang

Spring time in Beantown!

One of my fondest fall memories at EC was getting tickets to a Red Sox game in September with a bunch of my friends! It was so fun to be together and be a part of a huge tradition that comes with being in Boston, cheering on the Sox!

My favorite memory of my first year on campus was the day my friends and I went for a photoshoot after our classes. We all got dressed up and had a tourist day during the Fall semester so we could see what was around campus. Rather than choosing destinations we just walked. In our time out we managed to hit a majority of the tourist spots in the EC area. During our little adventure we saw the Prudential Center, the Boston Public Library, Newbury Street and Fenway Park. The next day our feet had been a bit sore, but that was nothing a little girls night in couldn’t fix. In the end we got super cute photos, a little taste of what Boston has to offer, and an unbreakable bond with new friends, which is all I could ever ask for.

My first year at Emmanuel has brought so many great memories. Most of my memories have been with the great friends I’ve made here. One specific memory with my friends here was when we went out and explored the city before we all went home for Christmas break. We had planned a secret Santa between us but decided to go out to dinner off campus before. It was great to get off campus and explore the city, especially when it is all lit up for the holiday! In the Faneuil Hall area there were street performances that we stopped and watched and just enjoyed our time off campus. It was a great way to end the semester and escape the finals season before we all went home for break!

"My senior year I attended alternative spring break and traveled to Phoenix Arizona to serve individual's experiencing homelessness at a place called André House! it was definitely an experience I will never forget!" - Casey Phillips

"Junior Pinning is something I will always remember. While receiving my pin was fun and exciting, my favorite part was all of my friends' families coming together to celebrate! As our parents took photos, I felt so loved and accomplished." - Victoria Slattery

As a member of the Emmanuel Cross Country team I am able to travel all over to compete in collegiate meets. One of these meets was in Bethlehem, PA amongst the cornfields at Lehigh University! I really enjoy being able to travel and make memories with my teammates wherever we go.

As a student at Emmanuel, you get free access to both the Museum of Fine Arts and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum! I take advantage of this a lot with my friends and we enjoy the beautiful garden and amazing artwork on display at the Isabella Stewart Gardner.

Junior Pinning!

"My sophomore year we were the first softball team in school history to win the GNAC and played in the NCAA tournament in Texas! It was an amazing experience and a highlight of my time at Emmanuel. " - Tianna Dawe '23

I always try to study and catch up on work outside as much as possible during the warm months. Secluded enough by the trees, but also still in the heart of campus, the picnic tables next to the Quad might just be my favorite spot!

In 2022, I participated in Alternative Spring Break in Anderson, West Virginia. Here we are at Bethlehem Farm!

My favorite memory of my first year on campus was exploring Boston and trying all different types of food. I loved walking around Boston; either to the Boston Public Library on a sunny day, just down the street along the Muddy River, or around the South End at the Winter Festival. There was always something to do and new to eat.

"The memories made with being on the basketball team at Emmanuel and being able to represent my school. I have made long lasting friends because of the basketball team and extremely thankful for the experience". - Brendan Kade

One of my favorite on campus traditions is Moonlight Breakfast hosted by the Emmanuel College Programming Team (ECPT). It is one of the many events on campus that focuses on building community while also having fun, especially before finals season. We got to stuff little stuffed animals, have breakfast as a late night meal, while having the opportunity to win some prizes (like Emmanuel gear or a flatscreen TV).

"This is a favorite memory of mine with some of my best friends in For Good Measure after our spring concert last year. I joined this a cappella group because I love to sing but I had no idea how many great memories would come from that decision. I am super grateful I made the decision to join this group because I made so many friends while also getting the opportunity to do something that I love!" - Sam Jones

One of my favorite memories of my first year on campus was making friends with the guys who lived in my hallway. It took me a few months to find the right group for me, but once I did I knew that I had found some friends for life! Every few weeks we would all gather in my room for a movie night, luckily we held one last movie night before we left for spring break, not knowing that we wouldn’t see each other for several months.

The Emmanuel College Dance Team made Top 5 at the 2022 UDA New England Dance Challenge! So Proud Of My Team <3

Can never miss a Celtics game!

My favorite thing to do around Boston is definitely explore the city with my friends. Whether it’s going to Red Sox games with my friends, grabbing a coffee at Tatte or walking around Newbury Street, I love that we have the whole city of Boston at our reach.

"Walking around Fenway with my roommate Sam, who has been my best friend since we met freshman year!" - Julia Pellizzaro

"Always loved late night snacks at College Pizza!" - Peter Avila

"Finding such an amazing group of friends while performing and working with the theater program has allowed me to meet people I wouldn't have met otherwise from our campus and the rest of the COF. Then directing my first show ever back in February, was such an amazing experience, working with the talented people we have within the program!" - Kelley Kazorek

We were so happy to fundraise again this year for our neighbors at Boston Children’s Hospital! It’s always exciting to see the final moments where we reveal the total!

Within steps of campus are exciting things that the city offers, like an outdoor ice-skating rink outside the Time Out Market!

"It was always so much fun working in the Office of Involvement. I've learned a lot of transferable skills that will come in handy as I'm pursuing a career in higher education at Harvard Graduate School of Education next fall! This picture was taken during President Boyd's Inauguration, very busy day, but it was an unforgettable, amazing experience because of the people I was with! " - Ro Chavez

We walked by some cool art on our way to Cambridge for dinner. It's just a T ride away!

I love going to Fan Pier Park in Boston’s Seaport District. There is a pavilion roof deck that has amazing views of the harbor.

"My first year at Emmanuel, my Indoor Track team won our GNAC conference meet in 2020. My team was so happy and proud of each other for what we had accomplished together." - Molly Winship

When the snow starts to melt on the Quad, and Spring feels close, you can feel it in the air and among the students!

"This picture was taken at Lawn on EC back in 2021. It was one of the first events after coming back from the virtual semester, so everyone was really excited to see each other! My friend Kayla and I went around to all the little activities they had at Lawn on EC which included the light up swings, axe throwing, and bull riding! It honestly felt like we never left!" - Brianna Chu

You never know who you’ll meet in the city. This is a pic of me and Red Sox star Xander Bogaerts after a Major League Baseball playoff game.

"My time at Emmanuel has been what I would consider some of the most beneficial, memorable, and enjoyable years of my life. Although I will miss calling 400 Fenway my home, I am so excited for what is next to come with an opportunity working for The Walt Disney Company. I will never forget the moment I got the email that I got the role and celebrated with my friends on campus!" - Christian Bettinelli '23
