Walking through campus the other day, as groups of students on tour passed by, smiling and asking questions, I started reflecting on the recent visit of my good friend, Tim Murphy ’96, who spoke to the Class of 2013 at our Senior Dinner just before Convocation.

I met Tim on his first day of work here at Williston in the summer of 2000. Fresh from his graduation from Boston College, Tim was already a legend at Williston.

Well, it’s about time that I got on my new blog and posted something! After a bit of nervous, first-time blogger writer’s block, I have finally pushed through and logged in.

I hope to have some interesting observations from campus soon, but for now, I thought it would be good to mention some of the upcoming travel that we are doing in the near future. Admission Officers from Williston will be traveling to attend school fairs and visit school communities in New York, New Jersey, Boston, Connecticut, Chicago and Bermuda…and that’s just in the next week!

Throughout the fall, we will be traveling all over the country and the world to speak with prospective students and their families. And while we love meeting students and their families in their own schools and home cities and towns, we always hope to have the chance to welcome them to our campus. So, look out for visits from us in your area, and if you have not set up a visit yet, please give us a call so that we can show you what life at Williston might be like for you! And please keep checking in here on my blog for my next posts!
