Netvestibule

So when you get admitted, after a couple of days they send you a login for the online area where students and former alumni can get each other's contact information, and share information. First time you login you enter all your contact information as well as info about your job, etc...

Lastly they want you to post a picture. They recommend a passport picture, but while browsing through the site you can see all kinds of pictures. Seems a bit of an indicator of the person's personality. I must admit, I'm somewhat guilty of going through my class and playing the who's hot and who's not game...lol. First observation...not too many women. Its like Eng all over again.. Seems like all the Americans look like the frat type. Western Europeans seem to have entertaining pictures. Most of the Asians seem to have the standard asian pose...you know..the suit, looking straight at the camera...no smile. The Latin Americans all look super happy and stylish. Anyways after wasting a few hours going through the liost of students it seems my class is a good mix of nationalities, with a good mix of picture types. Should be a fun year.

Anyhow I seem to have found a picture that fits all stereotypes. Its a straightshot (asian), smile (latin american), having fun/fun plcae (western european)..and well since I'm Canadian, I guess it fits that group as well.
