Interested in Being a Tour Guide?!?

For many visitors, their campus tour is often the only individual student contact they experience. Campus tours provide a valuable "inside look" at the College.

A campus tour serves two purposes. The first is simple: to show people what facilities are availbale to students. The second is less obvious but even more important: to help students get to know the kind of people they will meet on the Lewis and Clark campus, and whether or not the college is a good "fit" for them. The first purpose will take care of itself as the tour goes on. The second purpose is up to you! The most interesting way for students to learn about LC is through personal anecdotes from their friendly tour guide--just remember to present a balanced view of your experiences.
