Between June 1, 1997 and
May 31, 1998, Orange Key guides led 1,286 tours
that included 28,762 visitors, according to
administrator Joyce Shaffer. Last summer saw almost
12,000 people gathered outside Maclean House to
take a tour -- fortunately, not all at the same
time.
Most of those who tour the
campus are prospective students and their families:
of last summer's 11,986 visitors, 6,859 were
prospective students. Figures for this summer have
not yet been tallied.
Tours leave the Orange Key
Guide Service office in Maclean House at 10:00 and
11:00 a.m. and 1:30 and 3:30 p.m. For more
