Why do they want a picture of me?

<p>LOL. Sorry to start another thread, but the application asks for a picture. Is there something specific they're looking for? I think they're the only school I'm applying to that wants one.</p>

<p>Georgetown asks for one too although its "optional".</p>

<p>I don't know if they still do it, but when my son entered Elon in 2000, they made up a freshman photo book. It was very nice to be able to look up other freshmen, your roommate, etc. and be able to put faces and names together.</p>

<p>Also, in case you visited- they can remember who you were by face</p>

<p>i took my picture with my elon brochure, so it showed that I was interested in the school</p>

<p>anything helps!</p>
