MUSIC and MAGIC in Rochester, NY

We spent several days in Rochester, NY in October, visiting several colleges in the Rochester area. We were really excited to learn about the MAGIC Spell Studios at the Rochester Institute of Technology - a fully functional film sound stage and production studies. We had the opportunity to hear the fabulous musicians at the Eastman School of Music, part of the University of Rochester., rehearse in one of their historic concert halls. We also stopped at St. John Fisher College and Nazareth College, two small liberal arts campuses in the area. The leaves were turning and our hotel in quaint Pittsford, NY, along the Erie Canal, were the perfect combination for our college tour! Photos by Elizabeth Stone and Matt Donato

Sunny Southern California!

Campanile College Tours spent a week in Southern California, checking out campuses and great properties for our families.

Our first stop was at the Intercontinental Century City Hotel located in the Beverly Hills area - true "LA" vibe for families interested in Los Angeles campuses.  Heading down the coast, we toured the fabulous Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes - a perfect layover before heading further south.  We drove by stunning coastline in Newport Beach, Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach before arriving in LaJolla, the home of the University of California, San Diego where we had a private guided tour with an Ocean Phyisist.
