| Summer Seminar 2008
This thread will be available to ask the all important SS questions. What should I wear, a suit & tie, Polo and khaki's, trysty old jeans. Should I bring a sleeping bag? Will I get the classes I want? What is better rockets and space, or (I forgot the other choices).... |

| So I actually have a question... Is doolie for a day, the ENTIRE day? Or is it just like an afternoon or anything?
More to follow for sure! | |

| Its starts early in the morning, they wake you up like they do during basic, and for 2012 it went until about 3, then they have a dinner and some awards. | |

| uhhh...for 2011 we got up early...did some stuff...did some classes...did some more stuff...did another class...did a bunch more stuff...and then had some oh so delicious food. That mysterious enough? haha, sorry, just couldn't resist...
I'm not entirely sure what ya'll will be doing...the 2012ers are the ones to answer that question. Ask me next year and I might actually have an answer (I'm hoping to work SS next year). | |

| They woke us up reeeeeeeally early, we ran around, got yelled at a little, ran around some more, had an MRE for lunch, ran around some more, got yelled at some more, then they let us take a shower I honestly don't really remember the whole day, parts of it are pretty much a blur! In the interest of mysteriousness, I'll keep it at that! | |

| Just a random question, but is there any swimming during SumSem? I'm a terrible swimmer and want to know if I should learn or not. | |

| I don't remember any swimming during SS, but it's still a valuable skill to work on. You'll experience the joy of Water Haze during your sophomore year, so I'd say practice if you can. | |
