I
have now seen seven colleges/universities across three states in five
days. I’m a little breathless, but I
think I’ve learned a lot from this trip.
I am now definitely less afraid to ask questions on the tours, which I
think is better for everyone involved in the walking tour process. I’ve figured out that saying you’re
interested in Physics and Religious Studies is a long way of saying you have no
idea what you want to do with yourself. I
know that the three programs I want to see represented are stage tech
(specifically lighting design), fencing, and some kind of residential social
life. I need a campus with an active
social scene localized on campus. I want
undergraduate research opportunities. I
didn’t know I wanted that before. I want
opportunities like on campus radio (mostly because I think I’ve always had a
latent interest in journalism). I do not
want to study all the time. I would like
to have fun.
So I
think the long and the short of this is that I have learned a lot about the
fact that I have no idea what I want.
Sorry
for wasting your time with that, but I really do think this trip was useful on
the whole.
