[nagdu] attending The Seeing Eye

[Margo and Arrow]

Tracy, there's wi-fi in the dorm rooms and I didn't have to get a card.  I 
just went in as a guest and that was that.

> Hi Reinhard.
> Good luck in class!
> Training:  Lots of it!  My class took 2 walks a day of medium length,
> generally.  Then there were obedience exercises, and optional walks in the
> grounds on my own.  Not overly rigorous, but not too lazy, either.
> Dorm life:  The dorm can be a bit noisy, but the rooms are comfortable and
> the food is good.  I've stayed in worse hotels, really.
> Computers:  There are computers in the tech room in the basement, and
> access to wireless internet.  If you don't have a wireless card, you can
> borrow one from TSE.
> Lectures:  We got lectures on tape to listen to before the actual lecture,
> so we could hopefully discuss the material intelligently and ask
> questions.  In other words, we were supposed to study and prepare for the
> lectures, but there was adequate time to do so.
> Staff:  I found the staff friendly, courteous, and professional, just the
> way I like it.
>
> I enjoyed the whole experience.
