The use of tech. on campus is impressive. Everything is wired; the students get labtops their first year and palm tops in their third years. Also, what is transcribed on the white boards and power point presentations are all available on the internet.

The town doesn't seem to have much to do. Students don't get to use the gym at the main Wake Forest campus.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That a bus ride on Greyhound from Salem-Winston is a horrable experience. We had to transfered buses unexpectedly in Richmond at three in the morning.

What are your general comments?

The day went very well. Great cookies in the morning, summary of financial aid and free lunch. After lunch we had a quick tour of the campus and then our interviews. The interviews were mostly pleasent. They lasted only 15 minutes each so you didn't have much time to show yourself. It seemed as though they just wanted to see if you were easy to talk to.
