Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Allentown is certainly the place for those brave souls who embrace changing seasons. At least Muhlenberg's campus is beautiful enough to withstand most weather, rain or shine. Rain, by the way, also has a great ability to withstand all four seasons. Otherwise, Muhlenberg's small, picturesque campus helps make any sort of weather tolerable. Sunny days in the fall and spring bring out the best in campus and are perfect for working or hanging out in the green. The trees along Academic Row are gorgeous, whether they are blooming in the springtime or colored with autumn. When the weather is warm, the front lawn becomes a hub for sun-hungry students, as they chat with friends or study. Snow can be beautiful, too, as long as you do not have to walk through it. On the flip side, bad weather is not as begrudging when you realize a small campus makes the walk to class pretty short.

To be fully prepared for 'Berg weather, be sure to bring a variety of clothes for all seasons. Also, make sure you pack an umbrella and a pair of rain boots for the ever-persistent rain. Snow boots will come in handy, as well, for when your friends decide to have epic snow battles in the quad. It might also be a good idea to pack a large blanket for those sunny days when you and your friends want to lounge around outside. Oh, and if you are a lover of beautiful foliage, bring a camera.

It Never Rains in Southern California...

but it always rains in the Lehigh Valley. And if you have allergies, the Lehigh Valley is one of the worst places to be during the peak of allergy season. With all that said, the nice days are very nice and the campus really comes to life in the spring! When the trees and flowers around campus come into bloom, it's a sight to see and the students are definitely more energized and active in the spring. But remember, it rains a whole lot!

Weather Is No Hassle to Campus Experience

Typical Northeast weather. Very small campus so very easy to get around to buildings in rain and snow.

Weird Weather

Weather here is much like back home in Ohio; one day it will be 75 and sunny and the next it willbe 50 and blustery. It varies but it's manageable.

Relay for Life

Relay for Life Every year the college holds its annual Relay for Life. Students camp out in the Scotty Wood Stadium and continually walk laps in order to raise money for cancer research. All money goes to a great charity and students get to spend time with friends, so there's no downside!

Academic Row

Academic Row Academic Row, as it is known by students, is where the majority of classes takes place. Students walk down this row multiple times a day—not just to get to classes, but to get to the Campus Restaurant, as well! It's fortunate that this area is so beautiful, otherwise these constant walks wouldn't be so pleasurable.

Martin Luther Quad This is the enchanting view that greets anyone living in the East and Martin Luther dormitories. This area is usually packed to the brim every night on the weekends—even freshmen manage to find their way over to this primarily upperclassman area.
