Texas Tech Campus

Went to see the campus and everything worked out so perfectly!!!

First: We were fifteen minutes late arriving to the tour, the tour group had already left, but the guy who does the two o' clock tours was able to drive us around campus rather than walk (walk is the tour normally is) and Grandmother can't walk long distances so that was grand!

Second: We went to the housing and:
Grandmother said "We would like a room that doesn't have a bathroom down the hall."
The Lady: "All we have a community bathrooms, and we don't assign rooms until mid-June" Me: "Not true, you have Murray hall you are constructing and..."
The Lady: "Mam that is not for fresmen" (EVERYONE assumed I was a freshmen there. That was always there first question, are you excited about being a freshmen?! ugh)
Me: "Mam I am not a Freshmen, I am a tranfer."
The Lady: "Oh, we can sign you right up for a room in Murray. Construction won't be finished until August so I can't show you the dorms. You will be in room 146 B. And that will be an addition two hundred dollars down."

Isn't it great compared to Clarks?! http://www.housing.ttu.edu/newhall/plans.php

Third: An appointment was made for me to talk to the College of Architecture counselor. In the room was me and two other prospective students. I found out that I take my beginning architecture classes next fall and spring and then with that school years work I make a portfolio, and a council looks at my portfolio and GPA to decide whether or not I may proceed into architecture. I"m so excited!

Well I guess that is about it...Grandmother and Granddaddy loved the campus so that is the best news of all. :)
