and who doesn’t love New Orleans? I live on the North Shore. I could come home every, single weekend and I would never miss a holiday with my family. Groceries and laundry wouldn’t be a problem. On top of the amazing location, Tulane is the alma mater of my favorite author. John Kennedy Toole started off with an engineering major, but changed to an English major after just a few weeks and graduated in 1958 with honors before moving on to Columbia University to get his masters degree. While

On August 26, 2015, all of the new freshman to Lindenwood University had to go to Freshman Convocation. It was a time when the most prestigious figures to the school could introduce themselves to the freshman body and explain what studying at Lindenwood was about. They welcomed us, spoke about the school, spoke about what they wanted to proceed to do, and granted us best wishes for our time here and afterwards. We heard from administrators, the Voices Only Choir, and our freshman senators. Walking

Writing is a miracle itself. Believing in miracles can make you a proponent of the second chance in life. Following your dream is life long pursuit of one’s purpose. Sometimes winds of destiny are inflating your sails; sometimes you hit a rough spot in the ocean. The drawbacks are good chance for reflection and readjusting. As a first generation immigrant I had the opportunity to witness myself the land of Opportunities and experience the concept of an American dream first hand. Deciding to come

We already brought you part one of this fascinating list of facts about super model Tyra Banks. There is still quite a bit to tell, so here is part two. Number Eight: She Was a Mean Teenager She was one of those rude gossiping girls in high school that you wanted to avoid.

Number Seven: Tyra Got Teased A bit later, however, she was the one getting made fun of. After

once close when she was a child and as time went on and her mother began dying, their relationship had gotten better. I believe this had to due with the fact that they had similar interests. When Bogart was offered a teaching job at her mother’s alma mater, her mother showed great interest in the life that was of her daughter’s. Bogart

My love for nursing began early in my life; in high school, my continuing desire to become a nurse resulted in my applying and being accepted to Midwestern State University. There, I received a BSN and became a registered nurse. My experience at Midwestern prepared me for a successful career by instilling confidence within me as I joined the workforce. As my experience grew and years went by, I became eager to further my education and pursue my master's degree. Then life happened: the two-legged

At 6:30am when the sun is rising and cars are warming up, you can find her arriving to the great 15 East Peace Street. You may find her packing bags, putting folders together, or even making sure things are good to go for where the rest of the admissions team arrives. Vera Goode, a retired human resources personnel officer now spends her days here at William Peace University reeling in prospective students.

For many years, the idea of success in life has been simple enough: a person embarks in school for twelve years, follows up with college, and that will lead to them having a successful life and career in adulthood. Meant to be a 'natural progression', for many, college was just the next step in life and simply made sense. There weren't many other choices to be made in that regard. You wanted a good life? You went to college. You wanted money? College. You do not want to work at McDonald's for the

responded to many requests for recommendations and have done so in what I hope has been an unbiased way. To maintain the same level of objectivity when it comes to my nephew, is, admittedly, impossible, particularly in light of our recent visit to Alma Mater which confirmed both in his mind and in mine that Holy Cross offers a unique combination of opportunities for Ciaran in the liberal arts, and athletics not found at most other colleges.
