i've only been once. and it was seriously tainted by the stupid ex-boyfriend that i went with (of course, he wasn't an ex at the time).

since you're already in, it would be good for you to ask about course and work requirements, where most students live, and practical matters like that. of course, act interested in all that's going on there...

i would also look into job placement for recent grads, but this might be something you can find on their website. of course, meet with your advisor and get a feel for their style. some are way more involved than others, and it depends on your style as a student/advisee. my advisor is very involved (albeit a bit scatterbrained) and i like that, since it keeps me on track. my MA advisor was more go-with-the-flow and it took me an extra year to finish. not that it's entirely his fault, but i could've used some pressure, you know?
