First Year Experience

Pitt Odyssey

Overview

The Office of Student Life is pleased to offer you, our new students, an exciting experience this Fall—Pitt Odyssey. This is a two-day, one-night adventure atop the Laurel Mountains in Boswell, Pa. The cost is just $50 (one-night) and the experience will last a lifetime. All meals, overnight accommodations, and transportation from Pitt's campus will be provided.

Join other first year Pitt students, first-year mentors, and staff to challenge yourself in this outdoor and team-oriented adventure. Included in this experience is the option to participate in high and low ropes courses, climbing walls, team challenges, relaxing hikes, and much more. All of these activities are designed to challenge and encourage participants to get to know one another, build friendships, discover the importance of team work and discover your inner strengths. Finally, after the sun goes down campers participate in a bonfire complete with smores!

This camp is designed specifically for our new students. Our goal is to provide you a unique opportunity to learn more about your new home, friends and community. Register for Pitt Odyssey by September 7, 2009. Space is limited, so hurry!

Pitt Odyssey’s activities accommodate students of all physical ability and all activities are challenge by choice.
