Colleges & Universities.....coming soon to a town near you.

Many of you, high school students, have noticed that college admission counselors have started to trickle into your high school for college visits. Now is the time to get as much information about the schools that you are interested in while they are coming to you. Like me, I am currently traveling to high schools for college visits in Indy and western Michigan. Let me tell you from an admission counselor's perspective....we really do enjoy meeting with students at high schools. So, stop into your guidance office and sign up for the schools you are interested in learning more about. Then you can decide which onces you'd like to apply to and visit.

Indy...my second home...

I visited high schools last week down in Indianapolis, IN (my second home). Overall, it was a good trip. I always enjoy meeting students at their high schools and spreading the word about Valpo. It was interesting - travel always is - everything from showing up at the old location of a high school to getting completely lost trying to find a school you've never been to before.

I am looking forward to another week in Indy - I will be on the north side next week. I hope to see many more new faces at my high school visits. If I don't see you at your high school though, you may spot me hanging out at a Starbucks or Panera Bread (my two favorite places).
