1. Take out your notes from Monday and Wednesday. Add a squiggly line, today's date, and the topic: College Trip Preview Part 2.

With this in mind, make sure you can answer the following questions for BOTH schools so you will be prepared when we leave you at your school (again, we aren't really abandoning you...). Use the table below for resources!
1. What major would you pursue at each school?
2. What are two clubs you join at each school?
3. What living learning community would you live in?
