Email from Bucknell?

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I got an email from the Assistant Dean of Admissions at Bucknell today. It didn't look like any of the mass, annoying emails that most colleges send out--there's no flashy colors, no school logo, no "reply to get a brochure in the mail today!"...</p>

<p>It basically said:
- We wanted to touch base with you to see how your college search is going
- News updates (about Bucknell), with a link to a site with a bunch of news
- I will for sure be in your area in the fall
- Feel free to reach out to me (the admissions director)</p>

<p>Did anyone else get an email from Bucknell like this? It doesn't look AT ALL like the mass emails most colleges send out...</p>

<p>So that’s a yes…?</p>

<p>He’s saying that the school tried to make the email appear genuine in an attempt to catch your attention; to make you feel as if you are special, not that you aren’t…</p>

<p>you’re not special</p>
