<p>And since I'm not sure how many of you can actually see that if you don't have a Facebook, here are the details:</p>

<p>2/17/07
10:00 AM
Tressider Union</p>

<p>We'll just be hanging out and getting to know each other and have some fun. :) Whether you're a current student or an early admit, everyone's welcome! We're trying to fix up a real cafeteria lunch, so if you're a current student who has extra guest passes, we could really use them! :D Post here if you have any more questions/comments. Look forward to seeing you!</p>

<p>Here's the Facebook Stanford 2011 group, for those of you who don't know about it:

<p>Aww Tresidder!!!</p>

<p>You mean you want to eat at a dorm? Wow... current students... which one should we take them to?</p>

<p>I'm interested in putting faces and names with the CC usernames! I'm sure there will be some surprises!</p>

4

<p>Surprises? Like when everyone thought you were a guy?</p>

<p>Maybe we should take them to Stern so they have low expectations for next year.</p>

5

<p>Thanks for posting it here, I never would have heard about it otherwise!</p>

LoL, yeah, surprises like that. I kind of form mental images of everyone... imagining hairstyle, features, all that. I'm usually wrong. I was wrong about you too ;)</p>

<p>Admits, what would you like to get out of the visit that we current students can help with?</p>

7

<p>Man, I would go if I could! Wait.. I might be able too lol. One thing I'm looking forward to at Admit Weekend is to find some of the CC admits.. I've seen some of your guyses facebooks, but it'll be cool to meet in person!</p>

8

<p>Sure, I'd be up for it! Although 10:00 am is awfully early on a Saturday. :)
Can't go to FloMo or Ricker though... Wilbur? Manzanita? Lag?</p>

9

<p>Well if want to convince them to come to Stanford we should probably take them to Wilbur. Although I've heard Suites is pretty good...</p>

10

<p>Yeah, 10 is early. I can't exactly remember why we said 10. I think it was because we were thinking of taking the 11 o'clock tour of campus. The one hour one? <strong>shrug</strong> I doubt we'll even need it now considering how many current students are volunteering to show up. :) Thanks sooo much guys!</p>

11

<p>Visitor Information Services is closed that weekend. There may or may not be tours anyway. If there is you should go on the tour because all the tour guides are incredibly awesome people :) Not that I'm biased or anything... </p>

<p>I suggest you meet by Pete's Coffee inside Tressider. It's easy to find and you should be able to identify other people there easily.</p>

12

<p>:) Yes, the zone by Peet's (also near Subway and Union Square) is a good place to meet... even though only Subway is open on Saturday. There is a big seating area with lots of tables.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.stanford.edu/dept/visitorinfo/tours/2_7_private.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.stanford.edu/dept/visitorinfo/tours/2_7_private.html&lt;/a> This says that groups of 10 or more need to book a private tour... but maybe you could lie and say you're not all together ;)</p>

13

<p>Weird, I was so sure the office was closed that weekend. Apparently not... The private tours are usually just for school groups, a bunch of people traveling together as tourists of any form, tours for the elderly, sometimes tours for VIPs, etc. I suppose you could call and ask to be sure, but I really doubt that a private tour would be necessary. It seems somewhat silly. Then again, if there are 100 of you it would actually be a problem.</p>

14

<p>Awww... I wish I could come. Maybe we should start planning an Admit Weekend CCers meet.</p>

15

<p>bump bump bump</p>

<p>:D</p>

<p>Keep the date in mind, everyone!</p>

16

<p>Are we still doing it at 10 in the morning?</p>

17

<p>mmmm....unfortunately yes. ;) If you want to come later, though, I can give you my cell number, just in case we're still not in the same place. can you pm me your facebook id...or whatever they are... o.O;; :)</p>

18

<p>For all you Profros, I'll get up. :)</p>

19

<p>How late do you think I could come and still meet you guys?
I'm trying to see if I need to skip a class or not.</p>

<p>i'm so jealous =(</p>
