I also w...Really enjoyed spending the day with you. I also want to say that you were the most prepared and were our only student that brought a note pad! A big shout out for making sure that you were ready to learn and document the information. I am appreciative of your commitment.<br /><br />The pictures are great. If you have any with the students in them please post. I want to see how we looked at the various academic institutions.<br /><br />Yes, we had a great day at MIT. It was filled with a lot of information and Eric did a wonderful job of bringing the campus alive. Peter Huang, now a Harvard sophomore, is also a Hercules High School grad class of 08'. He did the best he could and remember we all can't have the wonderful outgoing personality of Eric over at MIT.<br /><br />I hope that you enjoyed dinner and I was appreciative of your comments about students needing to go to class and preparing for the Exit Exam. Too often we make excuses for why students are unable to get their work done but you brought it back to its essence which is personal responsibility and the need to make the effort.<br /><br />Thanks again.<br /><br />Charles T.
