Campus Concord


AVID sophomores, you have a quest! In an effort to provide our readers with a sort of bird's eye view of a number of different college campuses, you are going to take a little trip (virtually anyway) then write a short review of what you find. Here is your mission if you choose to accept it. This message will not self destruct in 60 seconds.

Go to a college website (your choice, but look at this blog before you start so you don't post the same campus as someone else). Take the virtual tour, if it exists, or just do some research. Don't forget to take Cornell notes.

Post to this blog, telling us about the following for starters:

  • average ACT or SAT scores
  • student-teacher ratio
  • what you thought of the campus
  • something you found particularly interesting (tell us something we probably don't know)
  • something you didn't really like
  • your overall opinion of the campus and whether or not you would attend
Don't make this too long, but you aren't limited to the list above. Remember to use complete sentences and to make the information flow. (This is a writing exercise after all.) Have fun!
