Just to follow up on my initial post, the Hampton Inn was great. The room was big and the hotel had some very nice modern touches. I particularly liked the open lobby with the big plasma tv. It was an excellent value and I appreciate all the recommendations of the hotel.
As far as our tour of Elon, it went very well. I was surprised at how large a turnout there was for the 9:00 am info session and tour, probably 18-20 kids. I am used to 3-5 kids at these sessions during the summer. The interesting thing is that almost half of them were rising juniors. The campus was beautiful and we followed up on our own with additional visits to the dance facilities and the building where the Psychology classes are held. (Long Hall?).We will return in the fall when school is in session. It is too bad that Elon does not offer an overnight stay program with a student, those are very helpful. One final thing, if you are planning to visit Elon and want to see the lake, watch your step carefully. Those geese have left their droppings all over the sidewalks.
