Sophomores and juniors had the chance to participate in our annual Spring Break college tour. Ms. Latham, Ms. Richardson, and Mr. Torrence lead this year’s tour to Southern colleges. Students visited VCU and took a self guided tour, led by the chaperones through the streets of Richmond. At Davidson College, students were excited to learn about the honor code and LEED certified buildings. At Queens University, students were interested in a mandate that all students have an internship and have a class dedicated to building a resume and interviewing. At Livingstone College, Alma Mater of Mr. Eleby-El, students met with the vice president about the value of education and importance of minorities in the work force. Students also saw Johnson C. Smith University. Students visited with 2016 graduate Bethann Mwombela who attends the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Each year the tour visits a different part of the country, focusing on a new cluster of schools to allow students to view a wide variety of colleges.
So Many Colleges, So Little Time
