| 1. I think that training the tour guides really matters. Having been on numerous and seen them at my own institution, it can really matter. Poorly trained or poorly spoken guides that kind of fill in with made up stuff hurts the school.
2. I think time for questions from the group limited to the academics, student life, the campus, and the town it's in. When walking around (no how do you judge folks for acceptance). A meeting as part of the tour that lets people ask the what does it take, how are the admission decisions made, etc. is also needed. |
