Prospective students moving
at the speed of chat
March
6, 2003
Although it only
holds about 10 people comfortably, an otherwise unassuming room
tucked away on the third floor of Shields Building on the University
Park campus has on recent nights filled up with hundreds of
prospective students looking for first-hand information about
living and studying at Penn State.
The physical impossibility
is made possible in cyberspace through sophisticated chat room
software that allows the prospective students-high school students
who have been offered admission to Penn State for 2003-04-to
log in from wherever they may be during certain windows of opportunity
arranged by the Undergraduate Admissions office.
