What are people saying about Scrambles “Scrambles are an exciting and integral way that new students come to know Whitman and one another. Not only do they see and experience the spectacular recreational outdoors in the Northwest, our students form close friendship networks that last throughout their Whitman education and beyond.” – George Bridges, President, Whitman College 2012 Participants: “Coming off my Scramble I felt like I was already part of the Whitman Community.” “Scrambles are a good way to meet a small crew of people while gaining a personal everything else will be easy.” “This was a great way to put to rest some anxieties that I had about starting college. I had three leaders to answer all my questions from a student point of view. It was also nice to have a small group of friends right at the beginning.” “The relationships you form with others are always stronger when you both have greasy hair.” “I felt the Scramble gave me time to become less nervous and more excited about being a freshman at Whitman.” Alumni and Current Students: “I feel more comfortable alongside my than I felt alongside people with whom I spent my whole high school career.” “Scrambles are like scrumptious backcountry cinnamon rolls. The perfect mixture of sweet memories, tangy adventure, and crunchy kids all rolled up in a week of new friends and spectacular scenery.” “Leading a Scramble was not only fun Scramblers to the San Juan Islands and sea kayaking, both of which I love. I enjoyed watching my Scramblers bond and become close friends on the trip. It’s awesome to see that they’ve kept those friendships throughout the school year.” “Looking back on my scramble, I couldn’t have asked for a better transition into Whitman. I had never been to the West Coast before, but quickly fell in love with the landscape and people.” “Going on a Scramble is a wonderful way to learn what Whitman College is all about. I admired my leaders deeply for sharing with me their love for the outdoors, their respect for nature, and their passion for Whitman. After my Scramble, I came to Whitman inspired, rejuvenated, and empowered by the connections I made; it was an edifying, unforgettable experience. The Scrambles program seeks earnestly to change the lives of incoming students.”
