  • Advice from Alumni LADSS 2016
    Advice from LADSS Alumni (There’s a lot! We’ve had lots of students over the years.) Kevin Keller, 2015 1. Try to get a place at Canyon Village Apartments. They are the nicest. 2. Go to Mount Wheeler. 3. Go rock climbing Tuesday and Thursday with the Los Alamos mountaineers 4. If you like rock climbing go up to the Jemez close to the Caldera. It has some of the best rock climbing around. 5. Join the YMCA. They are the cheapest in town and have a climbing wall. 6. Make sure you read all of the material before you arrive. Kyle Neal, 2015 1. Finding housing should be your first order of business. I lived at Ponderosa Pines and had a great experience there. 2. Find a means to get in touch with other students before you arrive in Los Alamos. This will help organize housing and possibly transportation. 3. I drove my truck from Tennessee to Los Alamos and was glad I did. I would suggest bringing a vehicle, but there were many students who got along fine by riding the bus or carpooling. 4. Be prepared to learn. There is a lot of information thrown at you during the lectures. 5. If you are interested in graduate school, the summer school is a great opportunity to make connections with potential graduate advisors and other future graduate students. 6. By the end of the summer you will have accumulated a massive number of files and data; it will help everyone if you keep it well organized. 7.
