<p>cal poly just called and told me to attend poly cultural weekend!</p>
<p>[MultiCultural</a> Center - PolyCultural Weekend - Student Life & Leadership - Cal Poly](<a href=“http://studentlife.calpoly.edu/multicultural/pcw/index.asp]MultiCultural”>http://studentlife.calpoly.edu/multicultural/pcw/index.asp)</p>
<p>You should attend! I went to last year’s event and it was one of the best weekends of my life, no joke. You meet a lot of other accepted high school seniors in the same position as you. Everyone volunteering dedicates their time to show you how great of a school cal poly is. On the Saturday, you actually get a private tour of your respective academic college by the DEANS themselves so you can ask a lot of questions.You also get to spend the nights in the dorms/ on campus apartments.</p>
<p>I was one of the students making calls lol</p>
<p>:] Thanks for calling!</p>
<p>It’s too bad culture weekend is the weekend before spring preview, I can’t attend both because I live too far away :/</p>
<p>My D just found out she can’t make the preview day (CMEA festival). This weekend sounds like a lot of fun. LPCnative, do you think there’s enough opportunity to learn about her college (engineering) at this event? She’s done the pre-view tour, but needs help deciding between schools. Thanks for insight.</p>
<p>^^^yes. On your academic college tour. Your daughter and fellow engineering majors will take a tour with the Dean of engineering and tour all the engineering facilities on campus. She will get a look at just some of the classrooms and labs on campus.</p>
<p>I have a class on friday evening. I was wondering I come on Saturday, would like be okay?</p>
<p>I’m not sure. I would go contact. But in my opinion, you will kind of miss out on the icebreakers and events Friday. The event starts around 6pm Friday and doesn’t end till 12-1am.</p>
<p>I have a test on 4/8 evening. The class usually ends around 8:30 P.M. I am not sure if I can join later like around 10:30 P.M.</p>
<p>I didn’t receive a call but I’m a transfer student. Is it only for freshman?</p>
<p>It’s not only for Freshman, but only certain demographics are called like hispanics, african-americans, & asians.</p>
<p>Any idea on what criteria they base the calls on? Besides race.</p>
<p>They’re based only on acceptance and ethnicity because PolyCultural Weekend is put on by clubs from the Multicultural Center.</p>
<p>I wonder why I didn’t get one then.</p>
<p>Pinata: If you did not receive a phone call, it doesn’t mean you’re not invited :)</p>
