Brainstorming Post!

Apologies, apologies, apologies! We've totally flaked on this for the past couple of months. I won't speak for [livejournal.com profile] willbedone as far as inviting punishment, but you can make indignant noises in my direction for it if you like. *shameface*

Anyway, this is the monthly brainstorming post, and I hope this means you guys have a ton of stuff to throw into the mix today, so have at it, in the appropriate OCD thread! And they are up, so go go go!

I keep poking at the idea of a prospective student weekend, but I'm not sure how we could do it so it wasn't just Launchpad writ large.

Also, we have a huge number of people from mythologies with vampires (either vampires, or humans who interact with them) right now. I'm trying to come up with something they could all DO together besides bitch about Maryland being too sunny, and coming up with pretty much zilch, but I wanted to throw that out there anyhow.

Oh my gosh, yes. Prospective student weekend convention open-housey idea for the win.

If you need any help getting a proposal together for this or anything, poke me. I'm always masochistic insane willing enough to throw in my two cents to coordinate things that I've been wanting for a while, myself.

When I was in college, we did the visitiation weekend thing and it was generally a Sunday-Monday thing.

On Sunday, the prospies would arrive and they were paired up with a current student and there were some lectures/activities/etc.

And then they crashed in the dorms and got up and went to classes with their guide on Monday to get a taste of college life.

If we went for something structured like that, it wouldn't be much like Launchpad, IMO.
