God is certainly mysterious. *lol* I received a magazine in the mail yesterday from Campus Life about college choices. Never had received one ever before. So I start looking through it, because we're close to that phase of life. And I find a page that lists the things that we should be doing w/O at each stage of her high school years. And one that was listed for now was to go to a college fair. So I check out the link and there are none in Indiana, but there are some in Illinois.
I check that one out and there is one as soon as Monday and running all next week and longer, but they also had links to various colleges on the site as well. O had shown some interest in Anderson University when she saw me looking through the magazine and so I clicked on that one. When the homepage opens, it not only indicates that there is a communication/theatre arts program that would totally suit her, but they are performing Seussical the Musical next weekend and the weekend following. She screamed, mom that's a sign!! *lol* I guess I've passed that sign thing on to her.
So we start looking around the site and check out the info about communications/theatre arts, and she's pretty impressed. She asks to take a tour online of the campus. And one of the first little dots we click on opens the church which is Church of God. Ok, another sign!! ;o) She likes what she sees as we're going along and she's getting more excited. Of course we're both stunned by the sticker price, but if God means for her to attend this college, then He will make a way, right?
So it looks like in the next month or so we'll be heading to Anderson *where Sandy Patti is from btw* and checking things out. And if we really like it, we'll set up an official college visit. Nice thing too, it's only 1 hour and 44 minutes away. So far enough to be away from mom & dad, but close enough to come home once in awhile if she wants. I like that, and she does too!! :O)
So we'll see what happens.

Margo, My daughter attends Franklin College in Franklin IN. It is a small Baptist college that accepts all faiths and has a very good reputation. My daughter who is in her 3rd year loves the school, small class size and small campus. Have her take a look and if she is interested I can arange a personal tour of Franklin College by one if its poster students.
don't let the sticker price scare you. I don't know your financial situation, but I hit the lottery on this one. Franklin College is paying for all of my daughters education. They maybe able to do the same for you.
