Quick Reflection

Janesia Latrice...how great to see your first college trip. I'm sad I missed it. But very happy for you and your girls. Now that you've come off the scavenger hunt, seen the dorms, walked the campus, and gathered info about life on campus, I want to ask you a couple questions. Nothing big, just your impressions and some things to think about as you go into the next phase of life and your other upcoming trips. By the way, I was so impressed with the way you put yourself together in one of those photos. You DEFINITELY looked the part of a new college freshman.

So, without delay, here are my questions:

--what was the most important thing you thought of while on the trip? (about college, of course)
--what was the biggest surprise about the school?

--Did you make it to the career services office?
--Given your thoughts about ROTC, do you know anything specific about getting admitted to ROTC there?

That's it, just a few things. Oh, also did you have fun?!? I hope the ACT went well.
