Hell Week at Bryn Mawr begins at sundown on Wednesday. I believe it ends at sundown next Wednesday. Hell Week is a sort of "kind" hazing that is meant to welcome the new students to the Bryn Mawr community. It's supposed to stand for a time where we (freshwomen, transfers) get to act uninhibited because no outsiders are allowed on campus (excluding Haverford and Swarthmore students while they're in class).
Most people choose a Heller from the Sophomore class who compiles a schedule for you encompassing the week. You do the tasks on the schedule. There are also a few traditions that go with Hell Week: Duck Pond Run, Erdman Performances, Plenary, the Shipley Dance, and Goodhart Performances.
Luckily, Hell Week falls during the deepest week of Winter and over Valentine's Day. I've compiled Valentine's Day cards for my friends and my Customs Group. They are Snoopy themed and have lollipops attached.
