What are your general comments?

Very laid back interview. My interviewer really wanted to get to know me. The day was not very structured, so I had a chance to wander between my interview and the tour. The tour took us around a sizeable portion of campus and through part of one of the hospitals, but didn't really show anything. Also, they only give you a $5 coupon for lunch...which does not quite cover it. Overall a decent experience though.
