Ferrum College

Mallory and I visited two colleges on Saturday.
Ferrum College and Virginia Tech.

I didn't get any pictures at Virginia Tech because I didn't have a memory card in my camera and only had room for about 20 pictures. Mallory though that Tech was waaaay too big.
We drove 5 1/2 hours on Friday night to Ferrum College in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The campus is small and beautiful.
The President of Ferrum College lives in Stratton House.
We wanted to thank her for keeping the house in good shape until Mallory can move in when she starts there in the fall. Ha ha ha!!!
Mallory also got a chance to play volleyball with some of the girls on the Ferrum volleyball team. The coach was very impressed with Mallory's skills and would like her to return in the fall to "tryout" for the team. They are in desperate need of a middle blocker/hitter which is the position Mallory plays most often.
The school is Division III so they cannot offer her any money to play, but Mallory is just not tall enough to play at most schools that can offer money. She is excited at the possibility of being able to play in college at all.
