  2. Alumni Speaker via Brown Degree Days
  3. Lunch with faculty and/or graduate students in your department
  4. Visiting faculty forum
  5. Film screening (or outing) with casual conversation afterward
  6. Field trip (to local festival, political arena, arts center, heritage site, museum, etc.)
  7. Welcome get-together for new concentrators in the spring
  8. Commencement “tea” or “garden” party
  9. Reading group
  10. Pre-registration party (ask your faculty to talk about courses they will offer next semester or next year)
