Hello from Seattle!
I haven’t had much time to write this week while on the road, first in Denver and now in Seattle. A few quick thoughts:
- I submitted a post to the inaugural edition of the Carnival of College Admission.  It’s basically a compliation of various experts’ (I use that term loosely since I don’t think I fit into that category myself) posts on their area of the college admission process. Topics range from boarding schools to admission to financial aid to college life and more. Check it out, and if you write about any of these topics, consider submitting a post.
- The Carnival was started by an independent college counselor based in Denver, Mark Montgomery. I had a chance to meet Mark earlier this week, and we had great discussion on the business of college admission and life in general!
- As I mentioned, I’m now in Seattle at the 2008 NACAC Conference. You may remember a while back when I wrote about attending NEACAC. Well, NACAC is essentially the same conference but on a much larger, national scale! There are nearly 6,000 professionals in the college admission counseling business gathered in Seattle. It’s a great time thus far, and there are still a few days to go! I’ll write about some of the things I learned over the next few days. That is, of course, if I can fit it in while on my way to Hawaii! ;)

Great to meet you, too, Adam. Hope NACAC was great; eager to hear all about it.
Hi Adam, we contributed to the Carnival as well and through it we got directed to your blog. Good stuff; you offer an interesting perspective.
