What Is The Statue Of The University?

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 clutter in the hallway needs to be addressed for the safety of patients, visitors, and nursing staff. This will also improve the efficiency of the staff by removing barriers to traffic flow. The nursing staff will be able to

The tunnels and the streets are two different ways of going through this part of the university. Students can locate all of the buildings and points of interest on North Campus on University Avenue and on Riverside Drive, which is part of Massachusetts Route 113. Originally, the tunnels were useful for electricity, heat, water, steam, and other utilities to pass through every building on the campus. The system ultimately transformed into a common walkway for UMass Lowell scholars and personnel to travel through, to get to Lydon Library, Southwick Hall, Cumnock Hall and Ball Hall. UMass Lowell is one of the rare schools in the world to feature a

At the time that the Statue of Liberty had been devoted on October 28, 1886, the speeches that were spoken, did not have anything in common with immigrants coming to America.

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

This street, quiet and empty the night before, turns into a bustling, crowded street, overnight. As I cross the street, the 3 large brick and academic buildings catch my eye. On the far left is McCleary Student Center. It’s large shiny front glass window glistens in the sunlight, reflecting the image of the landscaping just outside. Outside, luscious green bushes and prestigiously maintained grass connect the ever-so-modern campus with the wonders of nature. Directly inside, Price Auditorium, with its grand jet black stage, and maroon upholstered stadium seating, acts as a central meeting spot for the school, and brings together the Severn community on a daily basis. In the time I've been in high school, the spectacle which is Price Auditorium, seems so much more important. It is here in which intriguing ideas are shared, and paramount issues are thoroughly discussed. As I exit price, I follow the scent of hot food up the speckled tile stairs leading up to to the cafeteria. Inside, I can pinpoint the table I always sat at in middle school, with a refreshing view out the back window, where you can catch a glimpse of the river, just beyond the tree line. The cafeteria seems almost like a restaurant, with many unique dishes to chose from. The cafeteria satisfies hunger, while the rest of the 3 academic

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 United States of America’s history is extensive and full of social and political issues. One word dominates the character of the country: liberty. The Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor symbolizes the first glimpse immigrants will get of America. Patrick Henry’s quote, “give me liberty or give me death!” is a constantly-cited piece from the eve of the American Revolution. In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson and the other signers insist upon “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”. Liberty is something everyone wants, and America is often said to be rooted in this concept. The word has a flexible definition; as times changed, the definition changed, and it had a special meaning to those living in the time of slavery

Monuments are created to commemorate a time, a place, an event and a person’s significance in their contribution to the identity of a community or culture. Monuments are expected to withstand the elements of nature; humankind’s version of history, and in all cases, a society’s sober second thought. However, standing not so proudly and surrounded by Hollis, Barrington, and South streets is the statue of Edward Cornwallis, the founder of Halifax and former Governor of Nova Scotia.

A positive resident hall community should have safety, inclusivity, diversity, accessibility, and relationships as its priority. It should have equal communication, familiarity, and respect. As returning student to the resident hall, i perceived the both sides of the coins, the good side which was the inclusiveness, friendships and the flip side which were students' self-segregating, loneliness and homesickness. Since I experienced the both side, I wanted to help highlight the best part of the living experience in the resident hall so that motivated me to be an I-Guide to help make the transition process for the incoming students much more accommodating

As you move down from landscape, into a spatial view of the school, you can begin to section off locations as contested space hot spots. The hallways for example, are packed in certain areas, yet flow fluidly in others locations. These contested spaces are “fought over” in quite a physical manner. These bottlenecks within the halls cause crowding, and lack of movement. Another example of a space would be the Courtyard located in the center of the school. This is easily the least crowded area within the school walls, and contrary of the hallways, is contested in a much more mental manner. After interviewing multiple seniors who presumably would know most about the conducts of the school, I discovered, most believed it to be off limits to students. These students see the courtyard every day for over three school years, and simply assume it is off limits space because of minimal student traffic through it. Much like the mentality of Jilian from N. Reynolds’ interview: “If everything they need is there in the student neighborhoods, why should (white, middle-class) college students venture into unknown territory?”(N. Reynolds, Maps of the everyday, p. 481) However after speaking to the Vice Principal Ms. Morse this is not the case, she states: ”anyone is allowed passing through the courtyard while the weather is fair, and as long as they travel through in a school hallway

It goes without saying that everyone on earth has at least one sanctuary. For some, this place is high up in the branches of a tree, where they can touch the sky with outstretched fingertips and feign a lack of attachment to the busy world lying below. For others, this sacred place might be found in a place as close and accessible as a cubbyhole in their own home. For others still, it might be in a library, or on a quiet mountaintop, the hard pews of a church building, or even a person. I myself have found my haven to be far away and, for now, out of my reach, in a city called Wilmington in North Carolina. It is the seventh or eighth largest city in the state, but the downtown area isn’t too busy to relax and breathe in the fresh air drifting from the beach only a few miles away. It is peaceful and serene, but still bustling with just the right amount of life and activity to be always uplifting, and flawless in its own way.

The building labeled B appears to be the main building for courses at Local Community College. Students walk in and out of the building all day and stop only to enter a classroom or buy food from the vending machines which fill one corner of the building’s long hallway. Often, students sit on the chairs that line the walls while waiting for a class to start, but for now the hallway is nearly empty and waiting for the ambush of students.

The atrium encompasses a hotel like atmosphere rather than one of a hospital, including plants, a fountain, and even a piano. One key factor that can contribute to patient stress is the navigation of hospital facilities (Ulrich, et al. 2004, 19). To approach this issue the design incorporates brightly colored “way finding” elements, including two large “tensioned structures of PTFE architectural fabric membrane” as seen in figure 2 (Florida Hospital Waterman n.d.). This allows patients and visitors to find specific entrances and spaces both inside and outside the facility with ease. The atrium acts as the central hub for the
