Approximately 400 guests will arrive early on Saturday for tours, infor mation sessions, a Student Activities Fair, picnic and Academic fair to spend time with Meredith stu dents, faculty and staff. Members of the class of 2001, the Big Sister Class for the incoming first- years, led by Meredith Bolton and Student Admissions Representa tives are especially involved in hosting visi tors for this event, as are students and faculty staffing fair booths. D u r- ing the day as I stu dents and parents wander the campus, check dorm rooms and try to imagine college life, please join us in making them feel wel come. A chance encounter with an enrolled student or member of our faculty or staff may be just the factor that helps a prospective student decide Meredith will be her home for the next four years.
