Allen Grove over at About Dot Com has some good tips for visiting a college campus. And that's important. Because few things tell you whether you want to live on a college campus the way that visiting one does.

Grove has some very good suggestions. For starters, don't just take the guided tour; spend some time roaming the campus on your own, without a guide. You'll see things that otherwise you'd probably miss. He also points out the obvious: visit a class in the subject area you plan to major in and schedule a conferences with a professor. You'll get a much better feel for the academic life of the campus.
