In Order To Make This Renovation A Reality, Siue Must Choose

My home is only 35 minutes from the university. Living this close provided me with the choice to live at home and lighten the load of my growing student loans. Going to USI would give me the chance to be more involved in my brother’s life and watch him grow up. Another positive was the ability to have networking connections for my future career in the Evansville area. I plan to stay in Southern Indiana when I am older and attending school in Evansville will provide me with connections to hospitals and therapy departments where I aspire to eventually be employed. The main concern keeping me from deciding right away to transfer, was that I had already signed an apartment lease in Bloomington which I could not get out of. Unless I could find somebody to take over my lease, I would find myself stuck in Bloomington the following

The building was a marvel of modern engineering. A carbon neutral, solar and geothermal powered monument to the future. The outside of the building a sleek combination of recycled redwood and interlocking solar panels. The inside’s high vaulted ceilings and sleek white pillars formed a cavernous inner space. Three classrooms divided the building into working spaces. The bright L.E.D lighting and modern fixtures completed the buildings futuristic design. This building was the newest in a long line of additions to my middle school's campus.

College is one of the biggest stepping stones of life. For some, the transition can be rough. Many important decisions have to be made, one of those being housing arrangements. The decision to dorm or commute can change one’s perspective at college immensely. They are very different; dorming is not for everybody; commuting is not for everybody. Commuting and dorming differ in independence, money, transportation, and experiences.

College dorms are always a great experience for your first year of college because we get to meet new people. There is just one problem the bathrooms they could be changed. There should be no CO-ED bathroom, install more showers, give each room their own bathroom, or put locks on the shower. This is a problem for me because I am not used to someone I don't know coming in the bathroom while I'm in the shower. I feel uncomfortable knowing that someone else is in there. There should be a change in residence hall bathrooms that make students feel more comfortable and safe while being in the bathroom.

The focus of this paper is to dispel a common view that community colleges do not provide on-campus housing and to provide greater insights into the types of community colleges that provide on-campus housing, the typical student who resides in on-campus housing, a guide to various California community colleges that provide on-campus housing, and the impact that on-campus housing has on student learning outcomes, financial gains for community colleges that provide on-campus housing, and an overview of the lack of data in the area of not only on-campus housing in community colleges, but community colleges at large. According to Cohen and Brawer (2008) access to student housing is one of the fundamental dissimilarities between public

We must recognize that the ethnic dorms’ benefits come at the unfortunate expense of diversity for the rest of the housing at UC Davis. Although themed dorms are successful in creating a safe environment for a culture to thrive in, they also create a negative impact on the overall cultural environment of UC Davis. Themed housing builds walls around

West Chester University’s ongoing attempts to meet the needs of the student body’s various demographics are commendable, but some areas and services should be granted priority due to their more numerous natures’ and relatively minimal cost. Some of the ones being readily addressed are the constraints of and accessibility to various academic buildings on West Chester’s campus. These include but are not limited to:

The campus in Chicago is superior because of the quality of the buildings. When the college was originally built, the architects used a specific kind of material that aged quickly in order to make the structures appear to be older than they actually were. At Vanderbilt, the outer surfaces of the classrooms look like any other establishments in the area. There is nothing to distinguish the university’s property from private businesses. At the other school, there is also a famous library enclosed by a glass dome, showing the futuristic as well as historic components of the design.

Mr. Cedant has grown tremendously since accepting a position as a resident assistant with the Department of Housing and Residence Life at the University of Central Florida (UCF) in 2013. In this role, each semester he is tasked with the responsibility of living in a college housing community and providing advice, hosting educational programs, and facilitating campus awareness and growth for forty undergraduate students. Another responsibility that comes with

Being established in 1855, there’s no doubt that Penn State bears a rich and lengthy history. With this 160-year time lapse, a few predicaments are brought into focus; primarily revolving around the campus’s many antiquated building’s and their constant demand for renovation. Surly any student or facility member can understand why these touch-ups’ are necessary, however, what makes me question Penn State’s approach to innovation is not the renovations themselves, but the impact these projects have on the students. In opposition with PSU’s public relations director, whom believes that “besides some noise and the occasional road closure, the construction will not have a major impact on campus” (Johnston, 2016), I argue that the developments currently

Of course, there is always that option of getting an apartment or home outside of the school, but it is always fun to be in one of the school’s dorms. There is residence hall, which is like the dorms on campus. Then there is family student housing which is for students with a family. There is also a daycare center for the little ones of the students for when they have to go to class. On campus, they also have apartments that you could rent instead of the normal dorms. Newly admitted single students are guaranteed on campus housing for at least their first two years. As long as you keep up with all the housing deadlines and requirements, you are guaranteed housing for all four years. UCR has great housing options for all students who are going to attend the

The freedom that comes with leaving the comfort, safety, and regularity of home life can be a mixture of thrilling and nauseating. Along with a different sense of free rein comes a new set of laws, rules, and norms that can be crucial to succeeding in college.. In order to fit in there’s a certain set of guidelines that one must know and try to follow to a certain degree. The Student Housing laws can be considered the most important to follow in regard to the dorm room. These include but are not limited to- smoking in the dorm room, possession of alcohol (especially crucial if underage), and tampering with or disabling any fire alarms or fire equipment.

In September 2003, Mason Sexton, a young, inexperienced developer, was making plans to replace a rooming house he had inherited next to the University of Virginia campus in Charlottesville with a new 14-unit, 5-story apartment house. In his attempts to assemble the information, approvals, and resources necessary to go ahead, he runs into many problems associated with the development process. While Sexton is able to carry out most of the conceptual, investigative and planning stages of this development, he runs into many problems because of his inexperience and his initial plan changes over time. He runs into issues obtain financing, has to spend money to obtain a certificate of occupancy, underestimates the

College is a life changing experience for students. College is a new environment for most students and comes with lots of challenges. Things such as the increased difficulty of academic work and not being around the same social groups as a student was before college can make the transition very difficult. One of the best things a student can do to help with this transition is to live in a campus residence hall. Students should live in dorms because of the community that this creates. Students will gain many beneficial social interactions, will be able to better complete academic work, and will ease the adjustment to college life.

The hardest decision a student has to make during their senior year of high school is which school to attend and whether to live on campus or commute. There are both advantages and disadvantages to both scenarios. The entire college experience is a learning trip and it is oftentimes a young adults first step towards independence. Living on campus is an adjustment and is a huge eye-opener to the real world. The college dorm life is considered to be part of the "full college experience," but the costs of living in a residence hall can persuade students to remain home while they are in college in order to avoid housing fees.
