Renssalear

We're back from college orientation weekend. Impressive! Full schedules for both parents and student. A quick, almost surgical separation, right at the beginning. As soon as we are out of the taxi: parents one way, student directed another. We don't see her again until end of day the next day. By then she is registered in her first semester classes, has met her roommate, and has explored the campus. We, in the meantime, have been in the same large lecture hall, being told about the university, the dorms, and the need to "let go."

Quite well organized and thought through.
