What are your general comments?

Day started at 9:15 with admission office. They gave us a presentation and were very nice and made us feel relaxed. Then we went for two interviews. My first lasted an hour (we did not realize we had been talking for that long) and the second was almost 45 minutes. Then we had lunch and a tour. The tour was little drawn out and the tour guides really didn't seem to have a plan on where to take us. The facilities were a little outdated and the don't seem to be incorporating a lot of the techonology that has come about (no computer requirements or PDA). Students were very helpful I thought and enthusiastic but did not seem to respond well to some of the questions.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
