The University Of Arkansas Fort Smith

They all labeled downtown El Paso’s buildings. I looked at them, lost for I had no knowledge of what they were talking about. I was still just a bird hatching from the shell. I turned left and there it was, classroom A1518. The two large, dark wooden doors were opened and on top of them was the sign “ARCHITECTURE”. I stood there with my breath taken away from me. “So… This is it. This is why you came into Northwest. This is your purpose” I took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and continued on forward. Inside was a large room with computers on most of the side walls and desks the size of tables were located in the middle. All of the other students’ eyes were on me. I got even more nervous. They probably asked themselves if I was lost because of course, who would expect a 15-year-old to take an architecture college class? I walked slowly towards the 2nd desk in the front row. I sat in the tall black chair as the sound of the AC and the computer fans grew bigger and bigger. I’ve never heard anymore silence in my life. I opened my backpack’s side apartment and took out my pencil and place it on the side of the dark brown desk. I looked around and saw another room inside of

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.

People drive past El Paso High School every day and never bother to admire the beautiful architecture of the 100-year-old building that towers above them. I’ve always thought it was a striking building but, like many other El Pasoans, had no idea about the history behind why it was built the way it was. A couple of books and a nice long look at the school, I now have a better understanding and appreciation for Henry Trost’s marvelous works. Geoffrey Wright, an El Paso architect, describes Henry Trost’s grand design of El Paso High School as a “renaissance revival” in a 1991 article in the Austin American-Statesman, which wasn’t entirely accurate. Although he was inaccurate in this remark, he made another observation that was spot-on,

There are three schools students may have an interest in, these colleges are: Cal Poly Pomona, San Diego State University, and the University of Hawaii at Manoa. The information a student could research are graduation rate, admission rate, jobs out of school, curriculum, greek life, and the student to faculty rate. With the curriculum set at each university, many courses are offered to potential students. After one earns a degree, based on a specific curriculum, schools try to help one student get a job once that pupil have graduated. In the upcoming paragraphs one student could participate on campus: the fun in engaging in greek life, or how in class, the student to faculty ratio may affect a student 's learning. By gathering information

Alabama A&M is better known as Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University. This is a historically black university. Alabama A&M is located just a few miles from where the originally was built in Normal AL. Its first president, Dr. William Hooper Council, an ex-slave, established this university. In 1875 Alabama officials used the Morrill Act of 1862 that allowed state government to establish schools for black teachers and students. Alabama A&M University was one of seventeen new land-grant black institutions established under the Morrill Act. When the doors of the school swung open in 1875 the name was Huntsville Normal School and was located in downtown Huntsville, Alabama. The school consisted of only 61 students and 2 teachers. In 1878 the school developed an industrial education program, and due to the success of the program the school petitioned to change its name to State Normal and Industrial School in Huntsville. The Alabama Legislature approved their request and also rose the funding from 1,000 dollars to 4,000 dollars per year. Under the second Morrill Act in 1890, the university received government funded land for the first time. Having this land allowed students to study agriculture and mechanical studies. In 1896 the name was renamed the State Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes. In 1919, institution became recognized as a junior college and was renamed again as the State Agricultural and Mechanical Institute for Negros. After a whole 2

The Harris-Stowe State University began in the year 1857 after the St. Louis Public Schools decided to establish a school meant specifically for white students. Initially, the state named the school Harris Teachers College. The naming of the school was in regard to the honor of William Torrey Harris who served as a St. Louis superintendent of schools as well as the Commissioner of Education in the United States.in the year 1920, the university had the opportunity to offer a four-year bachelor’s degree for arts and education courses. Furthermore, the St. Louis school system established an educational system that trained black teachers in 1890, changing the university’s name to Stowe Teachers College. The latest name was on the honor of Harriet Beecher Stowe. In 1954, the Supreme Court under the case of Brown v. Board of Education ruled the integration of Stowe and Harris colleges to form one institution under a merger that saw the creation of Harris Stowe State University (Wetstein, 2010, p.16). Consequently, the university entered the state system of public higher education.

As a senior in high school the time has come when people begin to ask big and sometimes overwhelming questions like, “Where are you going to college?” and “What will be your major?” These questions, of course, lead to college visits and decisions. The two colleges that seem to meet my criteria are The University of Findlay and Ohio Dominican University. Both colleges have positive aspects, such as having the major that I am interested in as well as being close to family.  However, The University of Findlay seems to be a better fit than Ohio Dominican because it is closer to home and I am familiar with the campus and I grew up on this campus.

Our alma mater, The University of Arkansas' alma mater, has an important 4 word sentiment. "Pride of Our Hearts." This phrase represents the love and overwhelming pride in which alumni have for the University or Arkansas. This love and pride extends to the Razorback athletic program and more importantly the student athletes who choose to represent our university. I love my Razorbacks. My wife loves her Razorbacks. We are thankful to have an athletic director who loves and supports the Razorback student athletes as much as you do.

Arkansas state university has a long history that goes back many years, at one time it was not even a college. It has come a long way over the years and here is a brief history of the school.

The grand ole’ Graceland build in 1893 still stands today in 2015. It, along with the other buildings on campus have its share of historic moments. It truly is a symbol of what college students should be, mighty, strong, wise, forceful, and persistent. Its values along with many others is what shape the actual foundation of the mansion itself.

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

Faculty and administration coming together on one accord in support of an agreed upon mission is key to success. The article speaks about how the university of UNC worked together to come up with a classroom space problem they were having trying to accommodate the growing student population. The faculty worked on a schedule and the administration was able to provide funding needed to pay for technology upgrades rather than spending it on a new building, which resulted in saving the university $800,000 (Denneen, 2012). In addition, keeping in mind that each faculty member and administrator must share accountability and understand his or her role in this process or it can ultimately fall

The significance of this specific building is apparent from the moment you enter its domain. The door, witch is not shaped like a door you will find in an average office building or home, is designed to be deliberately dark, narrow,
