How to add a little spice to a campus tour
Just what does it take to sell a college to a student visiting campus?
Looks like it helps to make the tour more memorable, so some schools are adding a few gimmicks, USA Today reports. Alfred University uses a 7-person bike (see video above) on its rounds, Brigham Young University uses golf carts, California Polytechnic State University offers GPS and a downloadable iPhone app of a self-guided campus walking tour, and Eckerd Colleges offers boat rides. Ohio State and West Virginia University offer sweets.
Anyone offering similar extras or fun stuff in Minnesota?
