About two and a half years ago, the "Our School" forum was created to give incoming and recently admitted students a place to ask their many questions about Tech. At that time, all school-related questions had been directed into the "General Chat" forum.

But since most people only read the forum name and not its description, over time, users began posting any school-related questions, and not just those regarding freshmen-related issues, in the "Our School" forum.

We have decided that in order to reduce the size and growth of the "General Chat" forum, from here on in, school-related questions should continue to go into the "Our School" forum, which has been redefined to allow for any school-related issues.

However, since "Our School" was originally intended for questions by incoming or current freshmen, a new forum has been created to ensure that a place exists for that purpose: "Incoming Students/Freshmen."

This morning, we moved threads that were about freshmen-related issues into this new forum (judging by the titles of the threads). Over the next few weeks, we will complete the much more arduous task of moving all other school-related threads from the "General Chat" forum into the "Our School" forum.

We hope that these changes will make our users' experience at BTHSnews both clearer and better.
