I recently decided to add Tulane University to my list of grad schools and began the application process. I wanted to go there after I completed my associate's degree but that happened in May 2006 and Katrina happened August 2005 so I wasn't prepared to make that trip, plus everything was paid for if I stayed in Oklahoma. Now, I'm on my own no matter where I go so I really want to get out of Oklahoma - it's been a long 4 1/2 years and I'm read to start a new adventure. But do I really want to live in a flood plain? I've heard some refer to it as a sinking city - that's encouraging! New Orleans is a place I've always wanted to visit and experience, and grad school would only be a two year committment; so, I'm taking the gamble, if I get accepted, and heading to the Big Easy and hopefully don't experience a Katrina replay during hurricane season. Below are some pics of TU; the first is of the School of Social Work, the pic at the top is after the water had receded, and one at the bottom is Tulane under water.

Tulane is a beautiful school. My youngest son goes to Loyola right next door. He started in the fall of 06 and there have been some opportunities as the city rebuilds. Hope you get to go.
