Tent City planned to accommodate incoming freshmen

With Accepted Student Day looming, Snevets has reported that a surprising number of students have already accepted their admission letters to Snevets. Currently, the number of incoming freshmen already exceeds the amount of housing available on campus. The administration is now asking themselves where they are going to place all the freshmen that they promised housing to. “We have to be creative about this problem. The solution is not an obvious one but definitely innovative,” stated President Narfarvar.

In pursuit of not only creatively housing freshmen but also to foster a sense of community and awareness of mother nature, Snevets has ordered approximately 100 tents that are going to comprise a tent city on Palmer Lawn. The tent city, based off the successful Fyre Festival in the Bahamas, will be provided by the Red Cross and will include the basics of a minimal lifestyle.

Incoming students that have already been assigned housing to the tent city have responded positively to the solution. “Tenting is in. It’s what the cool kids are doing for a unique freshman experience. I can’t wait to tell my friends at other schools about the nature time I am getting. Winter is going to be an adventure, but I think snow is the least of my problems, I’m more worried about where I am going to charge my phone,” said Tony, an incoming freshman.

In preparation for the tent city, all current students are required to sign a non-disclosure agreement regarding the wind on Palmer Lawn and outside of the Howe Center.
