Analysis Of St. Joseph Hall

So this last weekend was alumni weekend, and I got to meet with some of the alumni who use to live in DK back in the day. They taught me some stuff about DK, that I thought it would be cool to share with all of you.

There are many dorm buildings on Taylor University's campus, some more well known than others. The most predominantly known dorm buildings on campus are most likely Wengatz Hall, Olson Hall, and Samuel Morris Hall. One of the lesser known halls on Taylor’s campus is Les Gerig Hall, or just Gerig for short. This dorm is co-ed, with the first two floors being occupied by women, while the top floor is reserved for men. We will be focusing on the men’s floor of Gerig Hall, the fourth floor, which is affectionately known as FoSo. FoSo is a group of men on campus that not very many people are aware of, but it is a group that people should take the time to inform themselves of and get to know.

The University of Illinois and Southern Illinois University both have beautiful campus’s. The University of Illinois is located in the middle of Urbana and Champaign area. For those who may not know where this is, it is surrounded by cornfields. Of course the two cities are right there, but once the city limits come to an end, the only view is cornfields and nothing else. However, getting over the fact that it is surrounded by cornfields, the campus itself is amazing. Since the University is quite old, the buildings have kept the same architect as before. There are twenty-two university resident halls and fifteen private housing buildings. The dorm halls are not too far away from the academic buildings, but on a cold,winter day it may feel like the buildings are miles away. During the winter, they receive a lot of snow. The weather at the University is similar to Chicago's weather. Besides the weather, at the center of the campus there is a quad and a bell tower. The quad is unusual. When they first built the campus, in the center of the building, there was a grass covered area. As the college grew, this became the quad. The quad is used for students to walk to class and relax in. The University noticed as the students were walking through the quad, the grass was getting worn out and just turning to mud. So, the University decided to put sidewalks where they noticed the

This street, quiet and empty the night before, turns into a bustling, crowded street, overnight. As I cross the street, the 3 large brick and academic buildings catch my eye. On the far left is McCleary Student Center. It’s large shiny front glass window glistens in the sunlight, reflecting the image of the landscaping just outside. Outside, luscious green bushes and prestigiously maintained grass connect the ever-so-modern campus with the wonders of nature. Directly inside, Price Auditorium, with its grand jet black stage, and maroon upholstered stadium seating, acts as a central meeting spot for the school, and brings together the Severn community on a daily basis. In the time I've been in high school, the spectacle which is Price Auditorium, seems so much more important. It is here in which intriguing ideas are shared, and paramount issues are thoroughly discussed. As I exit price, I follow the scent of hot food up the speckled tile stairs leading up to to the cafeteria. Inside, I can pinpoint the table I always sat at in middle school, with a refreshing view out the back window, where you can catch a glimpse of the river, just beyond the tree line. The cafeteria seems almost like a restaurant, with many unique dishes to chose from. The cafeteria satisfies hunger, while the rest of the 3 academic

Stepping foot onto campus does not immediately dispel any of the preconceived notions one may reasonably have after a few Google searches. The facade does not crack so easily. Reportedly designed by a prison architect—complete with a watchtower cleverly repurposed to house a large clock—the school is made up of a dozen or so small, one-story buildings of approximately six classrooms each. Large,

The Idaho Falls 5th Ward Meetinghouse is an excellent example from a golden age in the history of building design and construction for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS). The landmark Art Moderne building is located in the southeast Idaho city of Idaho Falls, and was designed in 1937 by the architectural firm of Sundberg and Sundberg. The building was dedicated on March 25, 1945 by David O. Mckay, then 2nd Counselor to the First Presidency of the LDS Church. The building is unique in that it is one of a few remaining stylistically intact historic LDS ward houses still in use today in

Raymond Craver’s short story, “Cathedral,” it is a very complex yet simple story to understand. Carver has been known throughout his career as being a minimalist, and in his short story “Cathedral” it is not exempt from his minimalism, and is more commonly known as a turning point in his career from the overall hopeless tones, and themes in his previous works to having a more optimistic approach even admitting it in Daniel Lehman’s article “Symbolic Significance in the Stories of Raymond Carver" in a Paris Review interview Carver states that it is his “break-through story”. In the story, the narrator interacts with his wife’s blind friend for the first time before facing an experience later throughout the story as the blind man known as Robert asks to describe what a cathedral looks like which relays to the title of the short story, and many article writers such as Diane Henningfield, Carol Simpson, and Chris Bullock go into detail as to how Carver uses different methods to tell the story and express his style of story telling. “Cathedral” is written in such a way that the reader is able to grasp what is happening in the story, and connect with the characters as the author uses character contrasts, interactions, and responses to using the lack of details along with the subtle uses of metaphors and symbolisms while the story itself reflects Carver’s minimalism, and changes in his works.

Florida State University’s Dodd Hall an elaborate example of Gothic Revival architecture. Dodd Hall is a representative significant piece of Florida State University’s historic fabric and academic history. The university’s rich history is illustrated in its construction from its main entrance to its series of custom stained glass windows in the Werkmeister Humanities Reading Room. Architectural influences of French Gothic period help to strengthen both the structure’s interior and exterior architectural integrity.

Religion in the US today has an obvious inspiratation from the Reniassance Era of Europe. Christianity is popular religion in the US and spreads far from and across different states. A popular similarity in the US based on the Christian religion is the stained glass windows in the churchs. Every church chooses to use different colors and designs for their windows. Some may have images relaying back to the bible while others are simple with just the color. Even though the windows may look fairly similar each church puts their own twist and make iit their own,.

This is “hen-key” hall. This was originally the agriculture building, named after Professor Louis Albert Henke who was revolutionary in his experiments with sugar cane and pineapple waste. During this time, 1/3 of the undergraduate majors were in agriculture. Therefore, the entire area from Varney circle to here was farm land! Though he retired in 1954, he was so passionate about his work that he continued to remain active on the campus into his nineties! However, Henke Hall is no longer used for agriculture. It did house the school of social work; however, now it is used as temporary offices for the school of education. There are some labs here and in front of one of them is a cage of chameleons, just chilling like a villain in the sun.

Passing Memorial Union, Lincoln Hall was seen over there along a straight road. Approaching it, I saw many people who wore a muddy white T-shirt and jeans dig up the earth with shovels. Actually, there might be other people to do other things, but people I could recognize were only them digging holes; because the white road I was walking on was dirty with brown mud. The dormitory was under construction although some students already started to live there. I wondered whether it would be finished until fall semester started. Finally, I managed to got there, and stand in front of the big grass door. Pulling the silver knob, entering into Lincoln hall, there is the same door that I had just opened in a small square room. It is probably for tight

The building labeled B appears to be the main building for courses at Local Community College. Students walk in and out of the building all day and stop only to enter a classroom or buy food from the vending machines which fill one corner of the building’s long hallway. Often, students sit on the chairs that line the walls while waiting for a class to start, but for now the hallway is nearly empty and waiting for the ambush of students.

The project details the elements of contraction for the required building of Hall for Cornwall. The requirements include preparation of feasibility report, which is based on the further improvement of the existing building of Hall for Cornwall. This feasibility report is based on two schemes, which means rather than only one, two options are provided to the client. Along with the feasibility report, the financial appraisal and the development design for both the schemes are also provided. As provided in the assessment the Client is open-minded, as to the use, budget and construction time but expected value for money and a return on their investment, which would be provided in accordance to their consistency with the derailed contraction process.

I find that the aspect that makes this area so peaceful is the beautiful tree in the back of the corridor. The massive tree has two main trunks that separate and go up to the rooftops of the dorms, creating shadows that look like doilies on the ground. Dark, tall bushes sit behind the tree, while brighter, larger leaf bushes sit on the right of the statue and tree (if you are facing towards the corridor). This side of the corridor also has a steeper pathway which requires dark metal railings on both sides of it. Near the end of the railing is another set of bars that form a box around a window that peers into the laundry room of my dorm. The box is however detached from the main handrail that continues on down a small flight of stairs and converges into the large staircase that leads to the new dorm’s back door. I am so happy that this backdoor is accessible from the corridor because it allows my friends in that dorm and I to have close proximity to each other even though they are on the new side of campus and my dorm is on the historic side. Just another reason why I feel like the shaded corridor is such an important place on campus.
