You’re walking around campus and all of a sudden you see something so horribly out of place that you’re forced to stop and stare. At first, they look like regular students, but then yourealize that something is off, that they look…happy, hopeful. Ahead are five ways to quickly and easily identify SOHOP weekend to save you from the shock of observing happy students on campus.
1. The Backpack. You know the one. It’s essentially the SOHOP equivalent of tagging animals before releasing them back into the wild.
2. You start to hear discussions about AP/SAT/ACT scores. Having a giant ego and the inherent need to one up those around you is basically a prerequisite for getting into Hopkins.
3. A line of people waiting to take a picture in front of the sign. It’s just iconic.
4. You see Ronny D being just a little ~too~ friendly with a group of students. Nothing brings out the charm like a potential 60k in tuition.
5. There’s a literal slide in the gym. Why do they do that.
