hello is it a big deal if u missed the Chancellor's Reception?? what do they talk about in there. which one is more important, the orietaion for freshman during summer or Chancellor's Reception???
I would also like to know because ill be attending the spring insight that same saturday and the times are conflicting, so i'll be missing the recetion. I don't think its that big of a deal though.
i am going to the one in Irvine tomorrow. i will let you know what goes on. the meeting is basically just going to be people talking and trying to convince you to join the school. they might have some insights on the majors and colleges. but i really dont think it will be anything that isnt on their website.
keep you posted
not alot went on...they talked about how good some of their programs were (astro physics, marine bio..etc). then, they touched upon financial aid and how important it is to get your fafsa done. several other guest speakers spoke about how great a time they had at ucsc. (friendly people, allowed them to grow..etc).
it was very general. the only thing that was really informative was the information fair where you could ask UCSC staff about whatever. Everything that went they said is on the website pretty much.
You Didnt Miss Much.
oh i asked a representative about whether bikes were practical and he said since there are so many hills unless you really like biking you should bring one. Students either walk or take the shuttle to class. He said no matter what resident hall your in you will have to take the shuttle eventually.
hope that was informative
