1/31 Preview Weekend Still Scheduled Despite Weather

The Gatton Academy has begun to receive questions regarding the status of the upcoming Preview Weekend. The January 31, 2009, Preview Weekend remains scheduled as planned.

Bowling Green missed the worst of the winter storm this past week. WKU remained open for classes all week. Most of the state did not fare as well, with the majority of Kentucky schools out for the week.

We recommend that families use prudence and caution when making their decision to attend. Attendance is NOT mandatory and is not required of a student to receive full consideration in the admissions process. The Academy will not hold additional Preview Weekends during the current admissions cycle, though we will host an event in April for 9th grade students applying for the 2012 cycle.

For those who will be attending this weekend’s events, our location has shifted to Grise Hall’s auditorium to accomodate the increased interest. Grise Hall is located adjacent to Schneider Hall. We will have students and staff members directing individuals from Schneider to Grise on Saturday.

Please direct questions regarding Preview Weekend to academy@wku.edu.
