<p>I wasn't sure if I was going to go before because I didn't have a ride, but now I am certain that I'm going. So is it too late for me to go tomorrow or can I just show up and do the Sleeping Bag Sunday?</p>
<p>You can call the admissions office at 1-800-821-9285 (toll free) and they can take you through the necessary steps. I'm not sure if there is any more room, but you might as well try.</p>
<p>"Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice message system. The mailbox belonging to 89158 is full."</p>
<p>That's what I'm getting. Is the admissions office closed on weekends? Am I screwed?</p>
<p>I think you are too late. They emailed us this:</p>
<p>"PLEASE EMAIL <a href="mailto:eshiu@andrew.cmu.edu">eshiu@andrew.cmu.edu</a> NOW TO HOST A SLEEPING BAGGER THIS WEEKEND!!</p>
<p>(a) you know it's fun
(b) they should get to see the coolest place at CMU (i.e. NH5)
(c) you can win prizes
(d) I'm asking you to</p>
<p>Dear Dave and Stan,</p>
<p>I was just wondering if you guys knew of anyone on your floor that
could host for Sleeping Bag Weekend this Sunday (4/9) to Monday
morning (4/10). We've been hit with a huge number of seniors that
want to take part in this program and therefore need all the help that
we can get - from both males and females. If you could forward this
e-mail onto your residents - I would greatly appreciate it.</p>
<p>If they are interested. Please have them e-mail me ASAP - and I will
put them in contact with the SBW coordinator. As a reward we are
running a points race for students that host the most. For each
student you host - you get a number of points that are redeemable for
prizes at the end of the year!</p>
<p>Thanks guys,
Eugene"</p>
<p>They are struggling to find kids to host and yes the office is closed on weekends, sorry.</p>
<p>Should I just take a tour with my friend on Tuesday then? Will I be getting the same experience?</p>
<p>I'm sure there are other sleeping bag weekends later and you can visit SUNDAY when all the other baggers would be here (even though you don't sleep over) you can at least visit or chill with the other baggers. </p>
<p>I would visit on Mon/Wed/Fri since most kids have classes then (I only have 2 classes on Tues/Thurs) and it might seem a bit dead. Come around noon or something and visit the University Center and etc. </p>
<p>To get the ACTUAL dorm experience though I would sign up for one of the later Sleeping Bag Weekends (They allowed us to sign up for ones in April 24-26th or whatever so I don't know exactly about that).</p>
<p>PS: If you really wanted to come tomorrow I could get one of the girls I know to "unofficially" host you but she wouldn't really show you around (she's pledging for a frat) and stuff but you can still hang out with all the other bagger kids and whatnot. Tell me if you are interested in this.</p>
<p>Yeah I'm interested. What will happen if I do get hosted by her? I get to take the Sunday tours and then sleep over for a night or just take the tours?</p>
<p>Okay here's the thing. You can do the tour thing in the morning (go to the office first thing in the morning and find the other baggers).</p>
<p>If you can't do that, just call this guy (I will pm his phone number and AIM to you) and he will let you into NH. Then you can come up to the fifth floor and we'll take care of you for the rest of the night.</p>
<p>I should be able to tour around with the other baggers right? And if not, what would my parents do?</p>
<p>I was under the impression that most parents left their kids alone after touring the campus (getting a hotel somewhere or just leaving). </p>
<p>You have to "find" the other baggers first as I don't know the location they meet at. And at around 5pm, you should call that guy and he'll take care of you from there (along with the rest of the floor).</p>
<p>I checked the Sunday schedule and says that I need to check in. What should I do?</p>
<p>Just come to campus, look around, visit, and when you are bored of that, call the kid. You'll have to buy your own food however and you won't get a "T-shirt".</p>
