The event included informa- tion sessions on various programs, which included a presentation by the dean of a program. Students and parents were given some more information on the program of interest and had the chance to ask any questions, or state con- cerns. There were tours, so everyone could see all the facilities of the school, as well as a pizza lunch. There were various booths set up, where students and parents could ask questions regarding the various programs, or activities and clubs that students can become Photo by Robyn DePratto part of, such as the rowing team.
