Jackrabbits Vs. Coyotes

The belief that new facilities bring in better recruits was tested by the research into the subject. Although new facilities did attract more initial interest from recruits (Schneider, 2012) the final decision about which school to attend came down to other different factors. In the study of “The impact of Athletic Faculties on the Recruitment of Student Athletes” college athletic prospects were asked why they choose the college they did. With factors such as playing time, location, tradition, education, facilities, teammates, and school color to name a few, the results were as follows. Non-Scholarship athletes that had no option to receive finical aid from the school they planned on attending, like the ones in division III, had top five factors of 1) playing time, 2) social life, 3) Education, 4) Location and 5) Financial Aid. Not until after the top ten did weight room and locker rooms came into effect. In another study it was shown that scholarship athletes in Division I were motivated by completion and achievement, while in division III the main motivator to play was the “experience” or the social

For many college students, dining halls and other dining facilities are essential because they provide daily nutrition. Campus dining feeds millions of students, and may even be the only meals that some students can get. College students spend thousands on meal plans every year, so when it comes to dining it is important that it is clean, sustainable and most importantly convenient. On campus dining services have failed at working around college student’s schedules. Most dining facilities close around the time of 9:30 p.m. or even earlier forcing students to seek alternative options that cause them to empty their pockets, and go off campus when unnecessary. College campuses should extend dining hours and require at least one dining hall to

Food plays an important role in our lives, especially in college. Food affects people financially, nutritionally, and educationally. The dining halls at Virginia State University are a major source of meals and food for students. Needless to say, it is important that those students can eat at these dining halls. The problem with this is that the cost of campus dining is way too expensive for the limited options we have.

The University of a Florida offers meal plans for students who wish to have a meal ready for them rather than worrying about what they are going to eat, or perhaps cook, throughout the day. The problem with this idea however, is that students oftentimes do not take full advantage of this system. Whether it is cooking, eating out, or even going home on the weekends, there are several factors that can get in the way of taking full advantage of the meal plan. This dilemma often leaves families asking the same question: is buying the meal plan that is provided by colleges actually worth the money? While buying a meal plan for college appears to make sense for many incoming freshmen, it does not always translate into the most efficient use of

When I was thirteen years old, my dad introduced me to golf. I have been hooked on to it ever since. I play golf for my high school and I am hoping to get a golf scholarship to somewhere when I graduate. My coach at the beach told me that the best way to get a scholarship is to play in summer tournaments around my area. I made the cut in the last tournament I played which was a qualifying tournament to go to Charleston for what they call “The All Star Championship”. My trip to Charleston was one of my favorite trips we have taken because I got to play golf the whole weekend, we stayed in a nice hotel, and the scenery was amazing.

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

The main problem for students at MTSU is that there simply is not enough on-campus housing available. Although the student population has grown steadily over the past several years, the university has not added on-campus housing options for those students. Because of that, students are forced into seeking other options. In fact, 83% of students live off-campus (Niche) One option for students is to go to apartments that have been designed for college students. However, in these types of apartments, students pay an all-inclusive fee for their rent and utilities. They may choose their own roommates, however, if they do not know anyone to live with, the apartment office staff will choose roommates for them. There are many allegations of discrimination in these types of situations. In an

Why do colleges make their meal plans for students very costly? Are they too expensive? Are meal plans or college food healthy? Throughout the 21st century college has become more essential to attend and get a job after graduating. As compared to back then when with just a high school degree an individual could live off a decent job. However, as college became more important, the price of college also increased including, the cost of dorms, tuition, fees, books, and most importantly meal plans. Within all of the college expenses, the price of meal plans has also increased. Food is one of the most important necessity a human being needs to survive. Furthermore, the price is not the only factor, the health and regulations of a student’s meal plan also comes into play. Colleges provide a huge variety of food, most of it being fast food. The main research question

The dorms are apartment style with four private bedrooms and shared living space and kitchen. Dorms are gender specific and there are complexes for housing married couples. Housing for fraternities and sororities are lodge style. Approximately 64% of students reside in on-campus housing. The campus is also home to academic halls, administration center, several sports fields, an indoor swimming pool, two dining halls, and a wellness center. The university has guest housing available for visiting family members and

Currently 12,527 students are enrolled at South Dakota State University. Out of this number 2,273 are freshman. Although programs will be open to all age groups our target audience will be freshman. By educating and helping students when they are first making the transition from home to college we hope to impact their college experience. These freshmen are usually in the age range of 17-19 and are from the Midwestern area. There are students from other ethnic backgrounds and we hope to reach out to them o help them transition into American food. One limitation of this target audience is that they are very overwhelmed the first year of college and may push this program to the back of their minds, but we hope to show them how important nutrition

If I were Dutton Crowfield at the age of forty and with the executive assistant manager at Deep Forest Country Club, I would evaluate all options and select the school that fits my criteria and would realize my ambitions meanwhile branched out my opportunities in the field of hospitality. Although she has categorized her options generally, still I don’t think she has reviewed all her options without sufficient information of the pros and cons of each program, and she jumped to the conclusion of ruling out great opportunities too hastily. I would first determine if I would determine to be a full-time student or a part-time student who continues to work at the country club. Since she has tons of working experience in the field and has a five-year

Thousands of college students eat more than one meal in the dining hall each day. In most colleges, such as UC Berkeley and UC Riverside, the dining halls are buffet

Coyotes and dogs have the same genus which is Canis but their species are different. Since coyotes have the same genus as dogs they have many of the same traits. A similarity is that they are about the same size. From about two weeks old till the end of a coyotes’ life they will usually live alone unless they are in a pack. Coyotes are predators of farmers’ livestock and because of that farmers will hunt the coyotes. In order to understand the significance of coyotes, one must understand their dog-like characteristics, the smart way of reproduction and parenting, and the challenges of their survival.

In the food court, you have a number of delectable options at your fingertips. But when it comes to food on college campuses that is a whole different story. It has been said that one of the deciding factors of choosing a college is seeing the food options and prices. Sure, there are some many more deciding factors such as price college dorm rooms the standard of teaching, the majors they offer Etc. But I think the one thing that gets overlooked even if it is a deciding factor is the food options on campus. Several universities and colleges have a multitude of options but that's not the case for all universities. Having been going to UAH for almost a year now it just opened your eyes to see how limited your options.

Food -- it is a necessity. There is not one person who does not think about it on a daily basis. For a college student, the quality of food available is not always to the highest of standards. Many students can not afford to buy expensive food or eat out on a regular basis. Many times their only option left is to eat from their school’s dining halls.
