Playfair

August 27, 2009

Students in the class of 2013 got to know each other and the Peer Mentors in this interactive and entertaining activity traditionally held on the first night on campus. Playfair is more than just an entertainment event—it's a team-building experience that has a long-lasting effect on the members of the Washington College community.
