I'm going to be a bit more scare blog-wise these days - lots going on - I'll be updating my blog friends soon! <BR/><BR/>Anyhow, it sounds like you had a nice trip with your son - that's great!!! My oldest is also a junior and checking out colleges. He flew to Florida to see Clearwater Christian College (two of his cousins are there) and he's also interested in two in S.C. - North Greenville (I think) and Anderson.<BR/><BR/>Take care!Susan Skitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13871921369901815459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890086592337310125.post-82172259736230592942008-11-18T21:51:00.000-08:002008-11-18T21:51:00.000-08:00Hi Greg!

It was really a wonderful atmosphere, and my son very much enjoyed it. What I liked best is that virtually all students live on campus, or in on-campus apartments as seniors, so there's no social pressure to move to an apartment somewhere (and the fraternities occupy entire dorm floors). In my experience with my other sons, moving off campus is a very bad way to continue the education; it's too easy to develop bad habits. Glad you had a nice road trip. Our leaves are gone, and the ones on the ground got snowed on today....sad.Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890086592337310125.post-89401866479371143722008-11-18T13:14:00.000-08:002008-11-18T13:14:00.000-08:00Your son does sound ambitious.
