<p>Anyone attending this event today?</p>

<p>We are. We’re at a restaurant a few blocks away right now :)</p>

<p>Bummer I did not see this sooner. We had a great time. Met some nice people from IU and gained some great information. Thanks, IU for putting on such a nice event. Love the take aways.</p>

<p>Was nice although I wish they had “stations” after all of the introductions. It was hard
to find the Hutton student, the Kelley student, etc.<br>
Still a great event overall and IU gets an A+ for the Welcome Mat!</p>

<p>Ooh ldavis, “stations” would be a good idea! We wandered around a lot trying to find the students DD wanted to meet. Some of the great IU staff saw us wandering and asked if we wanted to talk to anyone in particular, and went off to try to find them while we stayed in one place. Nice idea but it didn’t quite work, as the students DD wanted to talk to were probably most popular. But they did send some other students over to us. I was surprised that we were not able to find any students or staff who could talk about the Intensive Freshman Seminar, something we are very interested in learning more about. But I agree, it was a wonderful event, and we are VERY impressed with how much communcation and “love” we are getting from IU. IU is by far the largest school to which DD applied, but the one that has communicated with student and parents the most and held so many events. And it’s fun to go home with IU swag!</p>
