Pfeiffer Preview Day

Even though Pfeiffer's Misenheimer campus was clouded by a thick layer of rain and fog, the campus was alive and moving as Prospective students and their parents came for our Pfeiffer Preview Day. The students and their familes came to our chapel for a meet and greet session with our Admission Councilor's and Student Ambassadors. And after munching on some pastries and drinking some hot coffee, Preview Day officially started. Different faculty from different departments on campus came and talked to the students and parents about their programs. Rebecca McQueen, Director of Residence Life, came and spoke about Student Life, Ashley Oliphant, Director of our Francis Center, talked about ways that current students are involved with Non-profit organizations as volunteers and our own Police Chief McGinnis talked about campus safety.

Students were then separated by their degree choices and taken to different classrooms on campus to meet and learn more about their degree from actual professors. The students seemed really interested and it was a good opportunity for them to ask any questions they might have had. When we finally got the students back in the chapel, the parents and students were separated. Students went into one room for a student panel to talk about student life and the parents were in another room to talk about any concerns or questions about the campus. Students seemed to like getting away from the parents for a moment to ask more personal questions about student life and our ambassadors were more than happy to answer.

After a long tiring morning, the weary and famished families went to our cafeteria for a much deserved hot meal. They served pizza, omelets, pork, mashed potatoes, greens, sandwiches and much more. Our excellent cafeteria staff made sure that each person was comfortable and had what they wanted.

 Once everyone was finished eating, they were sent out on campus with a Student Ambassador to take a tour and luckily the rain held off for the tours. Even though it was a dreary, cold and rainy day the student ambassadors were alive, enthusiastic and ready to help families have the best experience they can!
