*********************************
We are excited that you will be joining us for Shadow Day Event spring 2008. This event was created by the college's Student Advisory Board SAB and was such a success that the college has made Shadow Day an annual event! Shadow Day is now produced by our Student Recruitment Taskforce, Peter McGuire, Associate Dean, and Elizabeth Miller, one of IAC's Academic Advisors.
We want to emphasize that there is no other program like Shadow Day at Georgia Tech. While there are other visitation programs offered at Georgia Tech, the Shadow Day event is unique. Our focus is about providing you an inside look into your major and life as a Liberal Arts student at Georgia Tech. The entire day you will be surrounded by Liberal Arts students, faculty and staff eager to answer your questions and to make your visit as productive and worthwhile as possible. If you are traveling from out-of-state and want more than a day's worth of activities, call us and we can work with you to plan a schedule. If you are wanting to meet with other departments on campus during you visit, you are welcome to schedule appointments after Shadow Day ends.
How to Register
Registration will open by January 21st. Please check back at a later date.
