With a higher than usual hurricane season expected:
http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2005/hurricanes/Do the high rise apartments in Miami experience any problems? I dont really mind being stuck in my apartment for a few days, but I would really hate to pack and evacuate - it seems like a big pain. I have lived in MD all my life (btw - I went to UofMD, College Park) and really had to only deal with snow storms - which arent that bad as long as you stay indoors.
Side note: I visited the Law School in 2003. One of the admissions staff told me that they were expecting around 410 incoming students and that this number was a little high, but they were prepared. I think they said they were shooting for around 370. I imagine with them not going to the waitlist this year, that they are expecting around 400 or higher. I was also told that they were a few part-timers in the mix, but Miami is trying to phase out their part-time program.
