Planning on visiting Brown Spring Break

Are there certain things that I should make a priority to see? Certain questions I should ask? Certain things to bring up with the admissions counselor? Specific classes I should sit-in on? Anything???
Oh, and good places to eat! : )

Make sure to take a campus tour. There's also a sciences and engineering tour if you're interested.

I don't know what day(s) you'll be visiting or what you're interested, so it's hard to say what classes you'll want to attend. If you repost with some interests, I could look up some class times/places for you.

Besides the formal tour, you might wander around a bit and talk to some students. Be brave! We're pretty nice.

Places to eat: Thayer street runs North-South through campus and has lots of restaurants and stores, in addition to the Brown bookstore. If you want to try an on-campus eatery, you can pay in cash for a meal the "Ratty" (the main dining hall), or Jo's, the Ivy Room, the Blue Room, or the Gate. Just ask your tour guide or a passing student.

I'm interested in Political Science, Philosophy, History, English, etc. Pretty much all social sciences (I'm planning on doubling majoring in poli. sci. and piano performance)
