WELCOME TO THE NOVEMBER 2001 ISSUE OF PROSPECTIVE
STUDENTS @ GREENVILLE.EDU
Dear Prospective Students,
Greetings from Greenville College!
We have now entered November, and while many people expect a drop
in temperature, the
last few days in Greenville have been absolutely perfect. Most of
the leaves are off the trees,
and I'm sure that the few that remain will fall shortly.
I hope you will join us for Scholarship Competitions and Preview
Days held throughout the
year. The first Preview Day is this Monday (November 12), and the
next scholarship
competition is on December 8. Please sign up if you haven't already.
Both opportunities
give you a great chance to visit campus and interact with students
and faculty.
Enjoy the rest of this issue...and thank you for your continued
interest in Greenville College.
