CampusTours Launches Molloy College Virtual Tour [7/15/02] CampusTours Productions (http://www.CampusToursProductions.com), a division of CampusTours Inc., today announced the launch of a virtual campus tour for Molloy College in Rockville Centre, New York. CampusTours has worked with Molloy College to design, develop and implement an online excursion of the Molloy campus. Prospective students who visit Molloy's Web site may now take a virtual college tour that features user-controllable panoramic images from selected locations around campus. The virtual tour has become a staple on most college Web sites, and students now routinely use online tours to get a brief overview of schools and to determine whether particular institutions merit further consideration. While students generally do not make up their minds about which college to attend simply by viewing a virtual tour, these online presentations are very important in the early stages of students' college research. Students routinely use virtual tours to browse colleges as they are whittling down their lists of potential choices to a manageable level. "Colleges are realizing that first impressions do count, especially at the outset of the college search process" says CampusTours vice president of production services John Piermatteo. "Colleges are petrified that their institution may be culled precipitously from students' lists due to poor Web site or virtual tour design. The days when the printed view book was the primary connection with students are over."
