Where do you see yourself in ten years?

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are fabulous, very modern. Wireless internet access. The anatomy lab has individual ventilated "boxes" for each cadaver as well as filtering/recycling the air frequently (I forgot the turnover rate--maybe it was 15 times per hour). It's also on the top floor with large windows for natural lighting. We also got a nice tour of Blacksburg, apartments, townhouses, etc.

What impressed you negatively?

I would have like to have spoken to Dean Tooke-Rawlins for a little bit. She introduced herself as we were walking out the door.
