Informal, personable and conversational interview. The school is also nice, expanding and seems to always be looking to improve.

At first, I thought the town was a bit lame, but then we (my wife and I) got to know some locals and felt more comfortable. I didn't find anything negative about the visit.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Demographics of town... Peach St. runs N/S and is parallel to State St. which cuts the town into E/W. East is pretty ghetto and West is the better side of town. I like to know this kind of info when I go to foreign places.

What are your general comments?

Very nice. It was very informal and since I had answers prepared for every possible question it felt like I could take my time and we had a conversation about each question. It seemed to go quite well and I would be very surprised if I do not get accepted.
