Went to an open house on friday for a Liberal Arts College called "kings College.

All I can say about this is I feel like I'm trying to get into Harvard or Oxford or something. All students are issued scholar's robes which thery are expected to wear to all formal school events, like the monthley formal diners held with the professors in the giant dinning hall. Very Harry Potterish. There's even a school ghost! Some women who hung herself after having an affair with someone at the school.

There's an underground theater called "the pit" where the theatrical society stages it's plays. Its a large room with walls and windows painted black, right underneath the chapel. All the buildings have acess tunnels running in between them. very cool.

The reading list for the first year is extreamly long. The idea behind this is, instead of reading texts about the era you're studying, you read the text from that era. So it includes works by Aristotle, Plato, Socrates and such for ancient Greece. Dante, Petrarch, Shakesphere for the renaissance and so forth. Somthing like reading 50 or more pages of a book every day for discussion in a lecture the next day. Then a 1500 word essay due every second monday.

lots of fun...
