Student Activities - Meditation Club

Haverford has more than 145 student clubs and organizations, like the Meditation Group. The club aims to provide a calm, inviting place on campus for students to relax and practice a mode of meditation that acknowledges the complexities of the Eastern history of Buddhist techniques alongside more secular and medical Western style.

Sharpless Hall

After nearly eight months of construction, Sharpless Hall, the campus' home for psychology and biology, was reopened. The renovations of Sharpless are a part of the College's Lives That Speak campaign, a $225 million affirmation of Haverford's academic excellence and historical commitment to the value of an ethical life.

Sustainability

As a core institutional principle, sustainability animates ​Haverford's broad mission of stewarding ​its​ financial, ethical, and curricular endowments in the interests of educating principled global citizens while safeguarding intergenerational equity as a perpetual institution.

EnGoPlanet solar pole lights, which use photovoltaic solar power and are nearly maintenance-free, were installed at the Tritton & Kim dorm plateau. The lights save about 1,100 kWh per year. Photo: Patrick Montero.

International Students

An increasing number of international students are being drawn to Haverford by the promise of intellectual exploration, academic rigor, and close-knit community. Once here, they must also contend with unfamiliar food and strange American social customs, and a climate that may be way outside their comfort zone. A robust support program for students from abroad eases intercultural adjustment.
