| I don't want a handwritten note, but some kids did have a business card and/or gave out their e-mail addresses and invited kids to ask questions if they thought of anything else. The tour I enjoyed most was at Caltech which had a combination of great stories about pranks and traditions, gave a good sense of what parties at Caltech were like (because the elaborate props were still haning around), and also gave us some good insights into the nature of academics (how the honor code works with take home exams, what tests are like, study groups etc.) It's also a beautiful but blissfully small campus. |
