  9. Lunch • Lunch was a time to meet everyone. • It was nothing like cafeteria food. • “This Ain’t High School”

  10. After Lunch Finished building the last of the computers Had some difficulty reading the “map” design that came with it. Figured it out in the end Finished the computer!!!

  11. The Test… All the parts were in, we now had to power up our computers. Aaren told us to take cover for his. … So we did.

  12. The Tests Success!! They all started!

  13. Uploading Software We were given several different programs to install Very interesting part of the process Waited for the screen to say “finish”

  15. This is how it’s done …..skills.

  17. College StudentPanel • Four U of A students spent the afternoon with us • We met students who were earning their bachelors or masters degrees in civil engineering, biology, and visual communications

  18. Campus Tour • Old Main-first building of the university in 1885 • Student Union-place to eat, relax, and seek resources to make college more enjoyable. • Library-public to the community & is the only building on campus that is not red brick

  19. College Prep • Scholarships • Gates Millennium Scholarship • Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) • Majors of interest • Engineering, graphic design, law, forensic science… • What can we do now? • Get good grades, learn time management, & achieve in extracurricular clubs & sports

  20. Practice is only way to get better • Don’t forget to ask questions. • Also, multi-tasking is very important • Be creative • HAVE FUN!!!

  21. Keep practicing! Abra, Jalyssa & Corey Meredith & Ashley Meredith & Aaren
