Awesome Alums (A shamless brag story)

Of course we love to showcase what our current students are up to (and you can even read for yourself by viewing their personalblogs), but we also can’t help sharing the exciting news of our fearless alums!

Nicole Buckingham Kern ‘03 has some art work on display at the Howard County Arts Council that was described as "the most striking artwork in this show". Multiple artists designed and created dresses made from various materials at the Ordinary Woman Gallery.. Nicole's dress is created from plaster and folded to give it the appearance of movement and life.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! (to visit college campuses!)

This is a wonderful time to visit college campuses. Although many of the current students are off campus (our students are on break from December 16^th until January 27^th) the admissions office is still open. It is always suggested that once you know what schools have accepted you to visit or spend the night at your favorites before making your decision. However, it can be difficult to schedule those visits in the final months leading up to graduation. Why not visit now while you have no school to worry about? 

What are some benefits to visiting during winter break and early January?

• ·         There are more appointment times available because you’re visiting during a relatively quiet time of the year. 

• ·         After New Years is over, many faculty and staff return to campus to plan for the coming semester which means your admissions counselor can arrange for you to meet with a professor in your major, or a coach.

• ·         Almost all current students are on break so it is easier to schedule an appointment with the Financial Aid office.

• ·         It is a less stressful time for you to visit. You are either on break or just started the new school year so you don’t have any major assignments due yet. Take advantage of this brief calm!
