This can be seen in the small town of Lapel, Indiana. When Nicole Flora, a member of the Lapel High School Marching Band and the Lapel Concert Band, was interviewed about her experiences with Lapel’s arts education program, she said that Lapel has a strong, long-standing arts program and that it unites their community (Flora). The community of Lapel takes much pride in their show choir and bands, resulting in much support for the musical groups. In one instance, Flora was in a marching band show performing at the Indiana State Fair Band Day. The crowd began cheering as soon as Lapel’s name was announced, even before the band took their place on the field. The cheering only got louder as the show went on, especially during the famous Lapel Funky Chicken dance step that is the band’s traditional exit (Flora). Not only does this unwavering encouragement instill a sense of pride in the students associated with such a unified and supported group, it strengthens the community as a whole.

The program opened in prayer by the Executive Vice President Jim Stepp along with a thanks for the many donors that were in the audience. He was followed by President Joe Stepp who made several remarks regarding where The Center has been, where it is, and where it is going. When talking about Alice Lloyd’s achievements, the President recalled that her goal was to prepare her students for a lifetime of service after they leave and her goal is still the mission

Over the course of the last three months, I have had the opportunity to complete my internship at HCC. My passion for assisting students in making a smooth transition between a high school and a collegiate environment led me to serve the HCC

Savannah Woodall is extremely involved in AEC and College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS). She is a CALS Ambassador, which she says allows her to make connections for future career opportunities as well as develop leadership skills and become an effective communicator. One of the best feelings she says, is when students enter the University of Florida and say that they found out about the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences or their major through ambassadors like her. She says it has a truly lasting impact and is where she

The programs offered here, specifically the musical groups (whether student-run or school-run) bring students and faculty together. There are a number of faculty ensembles, student ensembles, and even mixed ensembles, both instrumental and choral, that strengthen the community of the school. The interest of the students is in the school’s best interests; there are jazz bands, classical bands, orchestras, choral groups, acapella groups, and even theatre. These ensembles are a great way to make friends, pursue your dreams and give something more to a college education here at the University of

In 2013, HCC granted 10,999 degrees and certificates; in 2014 the college granted 10,600 degrees and certificates; and in 2015 the college granted 12,949 degrees and certificates. If this year’s predicted number of 14,200 degrees and certificates is accomplished, it will be an applaudable achievement for every member of the college’s

When going on the tour of Misericordia, I was shocked by the amount of activities and programs it had that were not academic based. We saw the gym and multiple rooms where residents could express themselves through art. The art instructors told us that many residents either paint or draw or sew for pleasure but some of them also produce art that goes to the Art Institute for one of Misericordia’s largest fundraisers. In addition, many classrooms have a musician that come in and play music for the residents. For example, in the Learning and Motion branch there was a guy that came and played guitar and sang for the residents. Many of the residents sang along or danced. In addition, Tina mentioned how the music director does a lot with the residents and has music classes. She mentioned how all of the residents enjoy the music program and that it’s an integral part of the resident’s week. In addition, while in the Graceful Living branch, most of the morning was filled with doing various art projects. For example, I got the opportunity to do some arts and crafts with some of the residents and we were making a Valentine’s Day poster and Valentine’s Day

BRCC is a fantastic community college with great programs, faculty, and staff. Like any large business, there are always items that can be improved, adjusted, or removed. Of these items, three are presented for consideration.

Scott Carrico is the full-time staff advisor to UPB and also a student center employee. He accepted the role of being UPB’s advisor in January 2013. Carrico did his undergraduate work at Indiana University-Bloomington. There he was involved in orientation and their program board which inspired him to pursue a degree in Student Affairs at the University of South Carolina. Afterwards, he accepted a job at the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign in program funding and finance. Though Carrico’s true passion was actually programming and working with students so he accepted his position at Ball State. In his role, he provides UPB assistance with contracts, negotiating vendors, providing guidance to the board members together and individually, reserving venues, and meeting with university leadership regarding funding. Carrico is a laissez-faire leader who believes in the empowerment of his student leaders and members. From our observations at meetings, we saw that he does a lot of the behind the scene work and goes with the flow and will occasionally provide his input. We were quite puzzled with his participation in the first meeting, but slowly understood how his style gets the job done throughout the weeks. Carrico believes intrinsic

Central Campus is served for those who just want to relax to those who are doing small events to big events. I believe that Central Campus does serve the purpose of the design because the space is opened to everyone is surround by trees, bushes, and flowers. The space also provides a place to for relaxation and peaceful area. I do think that the space could be designed a little bit different than the the way it is designed now. If I was able to change Central Campus I wouldn’t change a lot. What I would do is had some benches and gazebo, I would also surround the gazebo with flowers and bushes and vine plants that will wrap around the

With not only the Smart Museum but also the nearby Chicago Symphony, the University offers a wealth of cultural experiences to its students. Within the University, I can participate in music and art in a well-rounded education. I would love to play oboe and English horn and percussion within the university. The University satisfies my desires for artistic opportunities outside of class, both within the school and within the city.
