Our personal college tour

My parents were in town this weekend. We had a chance to spend some time together so long as we worked around the busy social calendar of two teenage girls. On Saturday morning, before the girls could slip off we took a little drive to see UTDallas and walk around the campus. We pulled up and it looked SO different from what it was when I took classes there. It seems a lot less "commuter school", especially now that they are building a dorm, 700 freshmen will be moving in to the state of the art residence hall in Fall 2009--including my little girl. We're so proud of and happy for her--UTD offered her a 4 year full tuition and fees scholarship, and $2,000 on-campus housing allowance. It will be nice to have her close by, yet on her own too. May will be here before you know it!
