College Day

Today, Becky and I went to Kent State University for their Academic Discovery Day. I’ve only been to Kent State once, about four years ago. It is a beautiful campus. It still gets a lot of press for the shootings of May 4, 1970 but there is so much more to the school than that.
Becky is interested in Fashion Merchandising so we attended the academic presentation at The Fashion School at Kent State. Note from the picture at the side, the auditorium at the school has a runway. Very impressive. Tons of placement in New York, Los Angeles, and even Columbus (home of Abercrombie, Hollister and Limited Brands). Over all, we had a great day together.
On a personal note, I will confess that it was bittersweet to go on college visits with my first born child. It is a reminder that her time at home (and my influence on her) is very short. I did tell her today that, even though she would be leaving next year, I was very confident that she had a good head on her shoulders and was grounded in her faith. That is the most important thing to me.
It still doesn’t make me feel any better about her leaving, though.
