Prospective Students Visit MHC Campus
The Student Government Association,
Student Development staff, and Ad
missions staff are jointly sponsoring
Spring Visitation Days on April 17-18.
We have invited to campus high school
juniors and seniors considering Mars
Hill College to experience some of the
people, classes, and activities here.
We have scheduled the activities for
Thrusday and Friday so that the visitors,
MHC faculty/administration, and YOU
have a better opportunity to get to know
each other. Our guests will arrive late
Thursday afternoon (April 17) in time
for supper. Campus worship, the Mars
Hill College Symphony/Choir, Timber-
line Coffeehouse entertainment (and
pizza, of course), and a “Spring Fever”
dance are all options for the evening.
We encourage you to participate in any
or all of the events and make these folks
feel at home. Of course, we realize not
every Thursday night at MHC is as jam-
packed as this one, but in the short
time they are here we want them to
experience the kinds of things they can
expect at Mars Hill College. For present
MHC students it will be a great Pre-
Spring Fling Primer. So mark your
calendar for this evening of fun with
friends and “future friends”.
The visiting students are bringing their
own sleeping bags, towels, etc. to spend
the night in the dorms. If you’ve got
floor space and would like to have
someone stay in your room, let your RA
know. Also, our student guests and their
parents will be eating in the cafeteria, so
help them figure out the system if they
need it.
On Friday morning the students are
encouraged to attend classes, financial
aid sessions, and/or interviews. Then
they will get a chance to listen to and
question a panel of MHC students con-'
cerning campus life, (CSM, SGA, frat-
sororities, athletics, etc.). After lunch
they will meet the faculty at a reception,
giving them further opportunity to in
vestigate academic offerings.
Spring Visitation Days conclude Friday
afternoon, sometime between 3 and 5
P.M. We appreciate your cooperation
and participation in the event as it will
give the visiting students a “feel” for
our college community.
