Profile of The United Center

Built in 1927 and opened in 19282, Williams Arena, affectionately known to students as “The Barn” is the fifth oldest college basketball arena in the United States3. It has undergone many renovations since opening but unfortunately the payment technology in the concession stands is stuck in 1928, accepting cash only. The purpose of this proposal is to persuade you to implement credit card payment options to the concessions stands at Williams Arena. After exhaustive research, I have concluded that offering alternative methods of payment, along with the standard cash option, would benefit the Sales and Service Department of University of Minnesota Athletics as well as arena guests. Guest services are a vital aspect to a sport-goer’s experience. At

Many students at Kansas State University have a problem with having to hunt for a parking spot every time they arrive on campus. Buying a permit every year does not guarantee you a parking spot; it is more of a hunting permit. It does not seem to be fair that the university keeps taking away parking spots. Some of these spots were taken away in order to better the university with a new water treatment plant, but as the number of enrolled students is on the rise, the number of open parking spots continues to exponentially fall. Another large complaint among KSU students is the price of parking. We are proposing Kansas State builds a new parking garage to take care of the parking problems.

After spending a year at cozy Wrigley Field it seated capacity 20,500 people and four seasons as tenants at Dodger Stadium, the Angels

The Yankees plan on opening a Metro-North train stop right at the stadium so that fans from neighboring states can easily arrive and depart the game without dealing with the subway or the street traffic, which takes away from the hustle and bustle of the pregame street activities. This includes souvenir shops, food vendors etc. And finally, the most un-baseball related aspect of the new stadium on the list is the fact that Yankee Stadium will be open year round with clubs, restaurants, banquet rooms, conference rooms and business centers, and will host corporate outings, business meetings, bat mitzvahs, seminars and weddings (M.L.B. Advanced Media, “New Yankee Stadium Relocation Guide”).

The City since the Bulls departure has invested 18.5 million dollars into the Yardmen Arena.

Originally, the capacity of the stadium was 42,500. Bleachers were made in 1976 in the end zones to make the capacity more than 46,000. In 2002, the video board and scoreboard were installed. Also, permanent lighting was added to the side of the stadium costing about $500,000. Since the addition of the lights, Iowa State has played twice as much home night games than they did in the last 30 years. From 2007-2009 Jack Trice Stadium received its largest renovation ever. Jack Trice stadium added new suites, a new wider concourse with new concessions and bathrooms on the east and west sides of the stadium. Also, there was an addition of upgraded disability seating, new fencing and gates, and a new plaza new the main entrance. Richard O. “Dick” Jacobson donated $5 million to Iowa State athletics in 2008, for the purpose to continue renovating the stadium and there will be a Jacobson Plaza constructed near the main entrance of the stadium in Jacobson’s honor. The donation of $5 million was the largest donation ever made to Iowa State University’s athletics (Jack Trice Stadium, Wikipedia). The most recent renovation occurred in 2011, when the big video scoreboard on the north side of the field was installed. The video board measures out to be about 36 feet high and 79.5 feed wide (cyclones.com). Jack Trice Stadium has become a source of history for Iowa State University and the story of Jack Trice will stay

In his book, Rah highlights cultural insensitivity of the Western white Evangelicalism and advocates for multiethnic and immigrant churches. He argues that the Evangelical churches have failed to embrace racial diversity or address the growth of the immigrant population. As the contemporary American society becomes more diverse and multicultural, the American church needs to move beyond its identity as Western and become truly multiethnic. Then, Rah goes after the church growth movement and American megachurches, arguing that they focus on marketing and mass production techniques instead of proclaiming the gospel. He boldly proclaims that "the church growth movement of the twentieth century reflects the cultural values of individualism, materialism, and racism" (2009, 107). He also criticizes the emergent church movement for remaining predominantly white and not acknowledging the non-white voices within Christianity. Ran encourages leaders to learn from multiethnic communities and the Immigrant Church in America.

Since the vast majority of students that attend college drives a car, Miami Dade College had to find a place where students could park their car without taking the risk of being towed or ticketed. So the college administration allied at a first instance with Miami-Dade County to let the students park at the 117th avenue which is right behind the college buildings. The real problem came when the Miami-Dade County didn’t let them park there anymore. Consequently, MDC had to find another place to let them park, so they moved the parking site to the International Mall, which is about 3 miles from the campus buildings. Finally they got an agreement with IKEA to use the upper parking of the

I thought very carefully about what religion I would pick for the final project. What eventually motivated me to choose the Church of Scientology is the construction of a multimillion-dollar chapel and community center on E. 125th St, which is very close to my community. This is a strategic attempt to expand the Church of Scientology’s base from more affluent areas to urban areas with younger people.

After years more of complaining, they decided to add a parking garage to their campus. Although this garage eliminated 200 spaces, it added 613. The price of this garage was $5.5 million. Arkansas State used the parking deck, as well as the reserved parking system to help alleviate their situation. Many other campuses utilize the same systems, such as: University of Cincinnati, University of Iowa, University of Louisville, University of Pittsburgh, University of South Florida, University of Tennessee, University of Wisconsin, and many more.

There have been many reasons why on-campus parking has become difficult in recent years. Increased student enrollment at Kent State University has posed many problems. The parking lots cannot facilitate the growing need for vehicle parking. Campus officials have undertaken construction projects to curb the parking problem, but these renovations have closed lots in the near term. Also, the increased enrollment of
