Q. What if I had a physical in January of my senior year? A. A physical evaluation is required within the 2007 calender year for participation in COOT². If you have specific health related questions, you should contact the Colby Health Center at (207) 872-3402. Q. Do I have to go on a COOT² trip? A. The COOT trip is an integral part of the Colby Orientation Program and all students participate. If an injury prevents your participation we will assign you to a trip closer to the campus or you will be placed in an on-campus COOT² trip. Q. When will I know what COOT² trip I have been placed on? A. You will be notified by the 2007 COOT² Coordinators Mae Ogorzaly (mmogorza@colby.edu) and David Bacchus (dbacchus@colby.edu) of your trip placement in late July or early August. Q. How do I contact my COOT² leader after the trip assignments have been decided? Your leaders will be contacting you as soon as we have placements completed. A leader listing is located under the COOT² heading on the main webpage! Q. When is the last day that I can apply for COOT²? A. We require all applicants to complete the online application process and submit all health forms by July 15. Q. What happens if I don't get the trip that I want? A. The COOT² Coordinators try very hard to place every student on a trip that best suits his or her interests. Not everyone will get his or her first choice. It is rare, however, that you will not be placed on one of your top 4 selections. Q. How do I know what to bring on my COOT² trip? Q. What day do we leave for COOT²? When do we return to campus? Q.
