As most members of my sophomore class can agree, and probably those from the junior class, colleges send a lot of letters. Their plan is to berate me ceaseless e-mails and letters that tell me that Ball State University really is for me.

One of Uni's oh-so-many, adorably unique qualities is that high school students (subbies too) get to run around a college campus. We have off-campus lunch, and we can go anywhere during our free periods. So most Uni students have a good grasp of the general features of campus by the time we start our own college careers.
