in case you hadn't heard, the tribe will be welcoming a new addition to the basketball team next year from my area! i am particularly excited because we go to the same church, our parents know each other, and the night before he made his decision to chose W&M over several other schools, he called me and i did the final convincing :)
anyways, we ran into his family this sunday and his mom was expressing some nerves about how far away he'd be, how different virginia might be from here, etc. well, i was thrilled to get to talk about W&M to someone who will be heading out that way so soon - i told them all about the chapel and the basketball guys there (who he talks to regularly already), the great food, colonial williamsburg, my first visit there, and how awesome the students and community are at W&M. i told them that alex and i had both made friends for life and our experiences there are something we will always treasure.
i don't often get to talk personally about W&M and my time there, but whenever i do, it is awesome. maybe one day i'll get a job recruiting for them...haha. go tribe!

Yeah! You should be an admissions counselor! I applied for an assistant dean of admissions position here, but apparently they pretty much only hire graduates!
good work ashley! that's definitely the best decision i ever made! plus right now tribe basketball is AWESOME!
i love talking to anyone who will listen about W&M :) he is definitely picking a great school and a great time to join the team!
Go tribe! :) my class has 5 guided reading groups (based on reading level) and since our class is W&M, the reading groups names are Barrett, Landrum, Midlands, Wren, and Jones. Part of my heart is still in Unit K, haha, but the kids weren't sure about being named "Unit" anything. :)
