What are the popular events and traditions at Meredith College?

Cornhuskin' is one of Meredith College's distinctive student traditions. The class-based event brings students together for prepared performances and friendly competition, making it a recurring point of connection across class years.

Meredith's event calendar also includes student social and formal gatherings, performances, and academic programming. Names such as Spring Formal and the White Iris Ball appear in descriptions of campus events, but dates and formats can change. New students should consult the current calendar to distinguish an established tradition from an event offered in a particular year.

What are the student housing and dining options at Meredith College?

Meredith College provides college-operated undergraduate housing, including residence-hall options. Housing is available, but availability should not be confused with guaranteed placement for every applicant or every preferred room type. Students should check the current housing application, deposit, eligibility, and room-selection procedures before making plans.

Campus dining and meal-plan choices are part of the residential decision. A prospective resident should compare the plan required or offered for a particular housing assignment with their expected eating habits and schedule; a commuter may have different dining needs. Residence housing reports high-speed internet access, and first-year students are permitted to register or park a car under the reported policy, subject to current parking rules.
