Richmond area.  It will be an exciting day, filled with campus tours, 
activities as well as the opportunity to meet and mingle with College of 
Engineering students, faculty, and staff.  Not to forget excellent 
accommodations for attending the spring football game!

Attached is the flyer describing this event and the application materials as
