Taking away his net privilages is definitely the most irritable things his parents can do if he really cares for you and they can blantantly see that. They have no other way to feel.... "parential" if they can't do something that fustrates the people that close to him... Is he a typically a bad person thoug? You know... staying out late, drinking, cussing, drugs, or things of that nature? There might be more to the story...

Its understandable that you are frustrated over this, I would be too! Although, maybe you should try going to give him a visit and spend some time together and talk about if your relationship can really go on if you guys can't have a lot of contact! Maybe he can talk to his parents about your relationship and he can see if they can bend some rules for you two! I hope your relationship goes well! Good Luck!

The interview with the man who will be mayor
By Paul Everest/London Community News/Twitter: @PaulEverest1
The man behind Jesse's Journey, a 3,300-kilometre walk across Ontario 17 years ago to raise money to fight Duchenne muscular dystrophy, had one piece of advice for a London grandfather about to embark on a similar venture.
"John (Davidson) always says, 'Just take it one telephone pole at a time'," said Bob Facca, 62, who will set out on a 500-kilometre walking trek from Owen Sound to London on Monday, May 7, to raise money for research in the name of his four-year-old grandson, Louie.
"I was telling my wife, there's a lot of telephone poles," Facca said after scouting out his route during a drive on Saturday (April 28).
Duchenne muscular dystrophy causes a person's muscles to weaken and stop working much more rapidly than more common forms of the disorder and Louie was diagnosed with the disease when he was two-and-a-half years old.
"He does swimming exercises and walks with one of those walkers and tries to go up stairs," Facca said. "He's doing OK. I don't think he knows what's going on yet."
Continuous fundraising is needed for researching the disease, Facca said, and he wanted to model his fundraising effort after Jesse's Journey, when John pushed his son Jesse's wheelchair across Ontario in 1995 and raised $1 million.
A subsequent walk across Canada in 1998 raised a further $2 million.
Jesse, who was born in London and diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy at age six, lost his battle with the disease in 2009 at the age of 29.
"I figured I should do the walk myself and maybe raise some money and awareness," Facca said, adding Louie, who lives in Michigan, will be at the starting line on Owen Sound to see his grandfather off.
He has trained for the walk since Christmas and plans to cover roughly 20 kilometres a day with family and friends coming along for support along the way.
Local businesses have donated support vehicles for the trek, Facca said.
Facca's journey, which has been dubbed "Louie's Grandpa Walks to Defeat Duchenne," will take him through several communities along the way and will wrap up in London on May 30 with a finale dinner at 6 p.m. at the Marconi Club on Clarke Road.
So far, Facca has collected $54,000 in donations and he said $40,000 more has been pledged.
All of the money raised will go to Duchenne muscular dystrophy research and Facca said he is paying for his accommodations and expenses along his route out of his own pocket.
To make a pledge, go to www.jessesjourney.com and look for Louie's story on the lower right-hand side of the page.
Tickets for the finale dinner are $50 and are available by contacting the Jesse's Journey office at 519-645-8855 or Facca Fasteners 519-681-5931.
May is "Defeat Duchenne" month and Facca's walk begins one day after another fundraising event in the city.
The 33-kilometre Walk Across Canada in a Day event takes place at Springbank Park on Sunday (May 6).

Jennifer developed a very personal interest in diet and nutrition when she lost one of her kidneys at eight years old. After reading on the back of a comic book that dietitians learn the science of food and help people with health awareness, Jennifer decided to make it her life's work.
After growing up on a Kansas tree farm and attending college at Kansas State University, Jennifer developed her own style of working with patients. "I always try to be positive and talk about what they can eat before discussing avoidance or limitations. I take a personal interest in every individual I see and try to get a smile, or start a conversation about their family or the day's activities."
"The most rewarding aspect of my job is educating and helping patients take new responsibilities for their health," shares Jennifer. When asked what the single most important thing people with kidney disease can do to improve their health, Jennifer answers, "Take responsibility for their actions when cooking, grocery shopping, exercising and taking medicine." She also stresses the importance of keeping doctor and dialysis appointments.
Jennifer is always touched by the confidence patients have in her. "They tell me things they won't tell the doctor or nurse. I had a patient in tears tell me she's never been able to swallow pills. She felt it was a personal flaw. With help from her doctor and pharmacist, I came up with a way for her to safely swallow three pills. Her new confidence made me feel like I had really influenced her life for the better. That was a terrific feeling."
Jennifer has been with DaVita for four years, and says the most valuable and surprising thing she's learned is the importance of diet in laboratory outcomes. She says a big plus is the support of her DaVita teammates who are, "…always planning little treats and surprises to celebrate birthdays or new babies. My teammates take great pride in the unit, and the facility administrator makes us feel important. That's why working at DaVita is special."
Of all the recipes she's tried, Jennifer says that Glistening Frog Eye Salad is the sure-fire favorite everyone likes. If you've never heard of Acini di Pepe pasta, no worries—Jennifer says it's easy to find in grocery stores as well as large chain stores that also carry packaged foods. So why not whip up something new and try a taste of Kansas.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Overall, I would give Gerald Otte Middle School a better than average grade. Their academics are very good and challenging. Most teachers seem to care about the progression of the students. The administration is supportive of both students and teachers and the class sizes are managable. The weak link is their Special Education department. Many of the SpEd teachers are not advocates for their children, especially if the disabilities are not readily noticible (ADD, Dsylexia, etc.) and it is a struggle to keep them on task. However, I have found great support at the District level for special needs children.

The space is significantly bigger than where we were - almost double the size. We're planning for plenty of seating with elbow room.
I'm in the process of selecting my inventory, (really fun and a bit scary) - some of our old favorites will be returning as well as some lines I didn't carry before: Madelinetosh, Sun Valley, Classic Elite, Rowan, and more. (It's nice not to be bound by space limitations!)
Tami's coming back too!
Finally, when are we opening? We're planning on late July/early August. We get into the space June 1st, but there's a lot of work to be done: walls to tear down, other walls to paint, shelves to put back together, etc. So, we need a little time, but we'll get there!
So, stay tuned!
Double Ewe Closed in September 2012
October 16, 2012 Update
You may have noticed I've done some updates to this website. Yes, the shop is now closed, but I'm planning on keeping this site going, at least for a while. The free patterns will continue to be here, however they are now all available as Ravelry downloads as well. Just search for them using either Double Ewe or Kelly Judson as the designer.
You may notice that there are two new tabs up top: Needles and Yarn. These tabs contain lists of the needles and yarn that I still have available. If you're interested in any of them, please just shoot me an email (firstname.lastname@example.com). I'll be adding photos of the yarn sometime in the near future. Yarn is priced at 50% off regular retail, and needles are priced at 25% off. I'll be adding an "other stuff" tab as will, which will include notions, crochet hooks, slipper soles, and whatnot.
And finally, please note the My Favorite Places and Stay Connected links to the right. Ravelry and Facebook are great ways to stay in touch.
October 1, 2012
Double Ewe is now closed. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for all your support and kind words. This isn't goodbye, it's just a "see ya' later". Maybe we'll bump into each other, at Yarnover, Shepherd's Harvest, at another LYS, or maybe a coffee shop. Maybe we'll be able to sit down with a cup of coffee, chat, and knit for a while. I hope so.
firstname.lastname@example.com (yes, this email address will continue on)

text: Greetings to all. I have just received a letter from Santina M. Levey, author of "Lace: A History" (London: Victoria and Albert Museum, 1983) which contains some information which I think might be of interest to others. She says, "I can say ... that I have never found any evidence of crochet (in the modern Western sense) before 1600, nor indeed before 1700. The technique of using a hooked needle in various crafts (mostly lace and embroidery) does seem to have been adopted in the late 17th century - possibly in imitation of the hooked chain stitch embroideries coming in from India. "It was used in bobbin lace to hook together separately-made motifs or to secure the mesh ground to the edges of the motifs. In France, this was referred to as crochetage. There is then a great gap until crochet in a recognisable modern form emerged in France in the early 19th century. "I am afraid that is the best I can do, but if anyone can produce firm, documented information about earlier appearances of the technique, I should be very interested to hear of them."

FORT MYERS, Fla.- Fort Myers Police arrested three people last night, and seized crack cocaine, pills and marijuana from 6220 and 6226 Demery Circle.
Police arrested 32-year-old James Hood for five counts of sale of cocaine and possession of cocaine. Bobby Lesane Jr., 29, was also arrested for one count of sale of cocaine and possession of cocaine.
Kenneth Roberts, 45, was also located on the property during the execution of the search warrant. Police later learned that Roberts had an active warrant for Violation of Probation.
Just before 10:00 p.m. on Thursday, the Fort Myers Police Department conducted the two lawful search warrants, as a result of a continuing drug investigation that has been ongoing for the past six months.
As a result of the search, police seized the following evidence:
-33 grams of crack cocaine, valued at 1,700
-00.12 grams of Roxicodone
-3 grams of marijuana
-Numerous items of drug paraphernalia used to package, weigh and process illegal drugs
The investigation is linked to a previous search warrant conducted on September 9th, at 6226 Demery Circle. Police seized half a kilogram of cocaine and over an ounce of heroin during that investigation.

Midwest: Painful Path of Twisters
The tornadoes that tore through several towns in rural Illinois last week caused loss of lives as well as structural damage. "You can replace the buildings," a Federal Emergency Management official said, "but you can't replace the people who are lost. It's painful for everyone," he told a news reporter. Your prayers and gifts to UMCOR Advance #901670, Domestic Disaster Response, mean that vulnerable persons not eligible for FEMA benefits will be able to receive assistance.
Liberia: Ganta Hospital Reopens
Health services such as eye exams, prenatal and maternity care, and emergency surgery are once again available to people in the northeastern region of Liberia with the reopening of the Ganta United Methodist Hospital on April 14. A story in an email from United Methodist missionaries Herbert and Mary Zigbuo illustrates the great need for a well-equipped facility. Just days before the reopening ceremonies, a maternity patient was weak and in pain, struggling to give birth to twins. She needed emergency surgery. The nearest hospital was a two-hour drive away in a four-wheel-drive vehicle doubling as an ambulance. As patient, doctor, missionaries, and anesthetist made the jolting ride over the rough roads, workers at the distant hospital raced to round up blood donors, awake the scrub nurse and lab technician from their sleep, and prepare for surgery. Though one of the twins died, the mother lived, "only by the grace of God," wrote Herbert and Mary. Your support in prayers, materials and funds enables the continuing ministry of Ganta Hospital. Give generously to UMCOR Advance #150385, Ganta Hospital Emergency.
Sudan: International Peacekeeping Urged
In response to the events in the bleak savannahs of Darfur, on the border between Sudan and Chad, the head of the church's mission agency is calling for an international peacekeeping action. This week, R. Randy Day, the chief executive of the General Board of Global Ministries, challenged United Methodists worldwide to call for a halt "to a grave humanitarian crisis caused by bitter political, economic, and inter-ethnic conflict." In addition to contacting United Nations officials to encourage international peace efforts, you can support relief efforts of UMCOR through donations to Advance #184385, Sudan Emergency.
Three New Resources: DVD, Print, Electronic
Works of recovery and life-changing ministry supported by your donations become real in three new UMCOR resources produced to help you animate your church's mission focus and encourage giving to UMCOR:
UMCOR provides emergency relief in many areas of the world. To find out more about UMCOR's ministries, please visit umcor.org. You can donate to any project by placing a contribution in the offering plate at a local United Methodist church; by sending a check to UMCOR, PO Box 9068, New York, NY 10087-9068; or by calling 1-800-554-8583, where credit card donations are accepted. UMCOR is exempt from tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States and qualifies for the maximum charitable contribution deduction by donors.
And, please pray for those who are hungry, displaced, sick or in poverty because of these and other natural and human-made disasters, and for the workers who minister to them.

More Info: According to the Centers for Disease Control bronchitis accounted for 639 deaths in the US in 2009. ["FASTSTATS – Chronic Lower Respiratory Disease." Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]
Acute bronchitis, which usually only lasts for seven to ten days, is usually not a cause for concern. Most people recover completely and are able to return to their normal activities. However, if bronchitis becomes chronic or if complications arise, it can potentially be fatal.
What Is Bronchitis?
The bronchi are the passages that carry air to the lungs. Bronchitis is a condition that occurs when these passages become inflamed. This condition usually occurs as the result of a viral infection. Young children, people with heart or lung problems, and the elderly are at the greatest risk for developing bronchitis. Chronic bronchitis, which is more serious, is usually a result of smoking.
Complications Associated with Bronchitis
Pneumonia is a possible complication of either acute or chronic bronchitis. Pneumonia carries its own complications, some of which are serious including a condition known as empyema where fluid collects around the lungs and may become infected. Pneumonia can also cause a lung abscess or acute respiratory distress syndrome. Pneumonia is the leading cause of death in children worldwide. ["Pneumonia Fact Sheet." World Health Organization]
Emphysema is a condition that destroys the air sacs in the lungs and is a possible complication of chronic bronchitis. It is estimated that over 100,000 people die from emphysema each year. ["Emphysema." Breathe California]
Pulmonary hypertension is another term for high blood pressure in the arteries that lead to the lungs. It is a possible complication of chronic bronchitis. Most patients with pulmonary hypertension have a reduced quality of life. ["Pulmonary hypertension – PubMed Health." National Center for Biotechnology Information]

DJ Augustin is a good point guard. He is solid. He can shoot, pass, and is an OK defender. Augustin was the 9th overall pick in the NBA Draft a few years ago and has yet to reach his peak. Anyone who follows the Los Angeles Lakers knows they need a quick point guard immediately. Derek Fisher is the starting point guard for the Lakers and is long in the tooth and has a very hard time defending younger and quicker point guards. DJ Augustin is not known for his defense, but he is younger and quicker and a better defender. The Bobcats should ask for a first round pick, but the Lakers may not want to give that up in hopes of still trading for center Dwight Howard of the Orlando Magic. I think the Bobcats can get a first rounder and a player like Lakers backup point guard Steve Blake. It's a win for both teams since it's just a matter of time the Bobcats will insert rookie Kemba Walker as the starting point guard. In Augustin, the Lakers have a quicker point guard who is younger and can push the ball up the court. I doubt the Bobcats would want Fisher in return because of his age and contract. This trade is a no-brainer, but will it get done? Time will tell.
Kobe Bryant would welcome a younger and quicker point guard like DJ Augustin who can better defend quicker point guards better than Derek Fisher.

Here's what we asked BabyCenter moms – and how they responded:
Do you think it's safe to let children swim right after eating?
Legend has it that digesting food draws blood away from the muscles used for swimming, causes cramps, and makes swimmers sink like the proverbial stone.
The reality? Get the facts.
Sun damage was number one on moms' list of things they dread or fear about summer.
Even so, one-third of moms sometimes let their kids go outside without sunscreen. And almost two-thirds don't make their kids wear sunglasses in the summer – despite the fact that exposure to ultraviolet rays raises a child's risk for cataracts and other eye problems later in life.
Mothers of children ages 5 to 8 considered the sun much less of a threat (45 percent) than moms of the youngest kids do (71 percent). Instead, they're a lot more concerned about "figuring out how to keep my children occupied" (49 percent) and "that my children will watch too much TV" (43 percent).

The industrial city of Windsor is situated on the south (Canadian) side of the Detroit River, linked to the U.S. city of Detroit by bridge and tunnel.
Strategically positioned on the Great Lakes waterway Windsor's port comes second only to its car industry which, like Detroit's, is the main pillar of the local economy. The good neighborly relations between the two cities are clear for all to see when they annually join forces to celebrate Canada's National Day (July 1st) and America's Fourth of July.Windsor (founded in the 1830s) and Detroit lie in an area first settled by the French at the turn of the 18th c. A trading post established by Antoine de Lamothe de Cadillac in 1701 on the north side of the Detroit River quickly became the regional center for the French fur trade before being captured by the British in 1760 and later handed over to the Americans after the War of Independence. Except for a short interval during the 1812 Canadian-American War the river has formed the frontier between the two countries ever since.
Queen Elizabeth II Gardens - Jackson Park
The Jackson Park Sunken Gardens (Tecumseh Road) and the Dieppe Gardens (Quellette Street) are particularly worth seeing for their roses (500 varieties in all totaling some 11,000 bushes).The Queen Elizabeth II Gardens are laid out in a formal pattern. There is also a bomber from World War II on site as a memorial for the soldiers from Windsor who never returned from the war.
Canada South Science City
Canada South Science City in Windsor has an expansive open area with hands-on exhibits that highlight sound, electricity, space, a solar car, kinetic art and properties of air. The Human Bubble Area is very popular as well as the Big Lagoon, which allows visitors to encounter life cycles and habitats.
Address: 930 Marion Avenue, Windsor, ON N9A2J2, Canada
Windsor Community Museum
The Windsor Community museum is an historical and ethnological museum which traces Windsor's development since the earliest days of colonization, occupies the oldest house in the city, overlooking the river. The section on North American Indian culture is especially interesting.
Address: François Baby House, 254 Pitt Street West, Windsor, ON N9A5L5, Canada

text: 'Humanly Impotent': The Musings of Sean Penn by Ben Shapiro 22 Apr 2009 post a comment Share This: Disparaging Sean Penn's brainpower is somewhat like picking on Roseanne Barr's lack of charm. It's redundant and superfluous and altogether unnecessary. At the risk of writing something redundant, superfluous and altogether unnecessary, I'm going to go for it anyway. I'll start with an understatement. Sean Penn is not one of the world's more intelligent men. Yet his moral and mental deficiencies have not stopped him from posting his alleged thoughts over at Huffington Post. His latest expression of genius bemoans criticism of President Obama - which is not particularly shocking, considering that Penn has had his nose so far up Obama's posterior for the past few months that there's a good argument to be made that he's personally convincing Obama of the need to rethink his position on gay marriage. "Once again the simple-minded media and its pundits are confused about the nature of Americanism and language," states the ever-incisive Mr. Penn. "When President Obama today inferred consideration of holding former administration officials accountable to law, he was immediately accused of violating his belief that we should 'look forward,'" writes Penn, frantically and mistakenly thumbing through an unused thesaurus. It's "implied," not "inferred," Sean. But back to the idiocy. Had President Ford 'looked forward' in his decision as to whether or not to hold Nixon accountable, he perhaps would have seen the Bush administration abuse of power coming and chosen to be genuinely tough on crime -- you know, 'tough on crime' -- sending Nixon to jail and deterring this recent avalanche of abuse. Ford's been dead a couple years, Sean. Nixon's been dead even longer. Can we move on yet? Further, the criticisms of President Obama's warm greeting toward President Chavez of Venezuela have been the posturing of our nation's most bitter and humanly impotent voices. Humanly impotent? I'm confused. Does that mean Obama's enemies are unable to achieve sexual performance with humans? Why is anyone listening to former Vice President Cheney? He's the one person alive proven wrong on virtually every topic. Mirrors are apparently in short supply in the Penn household. Then there's Newt Gingrich, who commented on the Chavez greeting as being approached wrong. He suggested that the meeting itself may not be improper, but that it should have been handled with a cold demeanor. This is a pattern of bad acting advice from bad actors. (All wimps think playing a tough guy is done in one-note coldness.) With a friend, or an enemy, our president will gain greater strategic position with a smile. Ahh, acting advice. Finally we come to the crux of Mr. Penn's authority. He's a great actor, and therefore he can tell us how best to interact with dictators. And not only can Penn give acting advice, he has acted before dictators, he tells us. I know President Chavez well. Whether or not one agrees with all his policies, what is certainly true of Chavez is that he is a warm and friendly man with a robust sense of humor (who daily risks his own life for his country in ways Dick Cheney could never imagine). To treat such a man coldly is akin to spitting on him. Yes, Sean, that would be the point. Apparently, you prefer swapping spit with him - apparently the "warm and friendly man with a robust sense of humor" cures you of your own "humanly impotence" -- but the rest of us think he's a monstrous dictator who quashes dissent and keeps his people in misery. Penn is almost done. As a country we've done enough of that. Say what you will, but it has only resulted in the self-celebration of our smirking spitters, while costing us international respect, American lives, and left wounds in the hands of our children's future. I won't pick on the grammar here. To paraphrase Samuel Johnson, it is not done well, but you are surprised to find it being done at all. Let's just focus on his argument - what there is of one. Apparently, smirking at Hugo Chavez, or spitting on him, or treating him coldly, or refusing to smile while he rips America and hands you a book telling you how evil America is - that sort of behavior costs American lives, international respect, and "left wounds in the hands of our children's future." Which American lives, Sean? I thought Hugo was a nice guy who would never target Americans. As far as the wounds in the hands of our children's future, I was unaware that our children's future had hands, and I can assume that if the future's hands have wounds, they are likely caused from smiting themselves in the head after reading your incompetent drivel. Now for Penn's sign-off. The Cheneys, down to the O'Reillys and Hannitys and Limbaughs, effectively hate the principles upon which we were founded. They are among the greatest cowards in all of American history. I applaud an American President who's tough enough...to smile. Yes, kowtowing to dictators - that's the principle upon which we were founded. Smiling at murderous thugs - that's an American principle. If someone knows American principles, it's a man who once defended Saddam Hussein. Let's not go too hard on Sean, though. He has spent so long cleaning dictators with his tongue, it's a wonder he has even retained the power of speech. Instead, let's marvel at America, a country where anyone truly can get ahead - no matter how morally challenged, mentally bereft, and internationally yellow-bellied they are.

Vancouver, B.C.-based TransLink's board of directors will maintain TaxiSaver, reversing its original decision to eliminate the program.The original decision grew out of discussions on how to meet growing demand for custom transit services, including HandyDART. The goal was to redirect funding from TaxiSaver to improve these services. On May 30, the board put that decision on hold pending further engagement with a broader range of stakeholders. For the past several weeks, TransLink's board and staff have been participating in meetings in the region to listen to concerns and discuss ideas. The board and staff heard that the TaxiSaver program provides a valuable service to those in need and is integral to making the transit system accessible for them.Through this engagement, TransLink also heard many good ideas and suggestions on how to make overall custom transit services better for those who need it most.
TransLink is committed to working closely with Access Transit's Users' Advisory Committee, persons with disabilities, seniors and other stakeholders from across the region on an ongoing basis to help find ways of improving these services. By continuing to listen to a broad spectrum of stakeholders on their ideas, the agency's goal is to continue to provide reliable, valuable and sustainable custom transit services.

"This is a picture of one my kittens, Sox," writes Ashley Hawkins of Virginia Beach, Va. "He is such a ham when it comes to taking pictures. He always has the cutest poses. On the other hand, his brother Red runs when the camera comes out."

I can't speak for you, but here are five things coming to small screens that I don't want to miss.
Sharks. Tornados. Sharknados. If you thought Sharknado was worthy of Mystery Science Theater 3000 treatment after the intentionally crappy flick premiered on Syfy on July 11, 2013 (and somehow went on to become a worldwide sensation), you are not only in luck but you get to see live Sharknado skewe ...

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Well after a fair few hours of Foley goodness I think I love him even more
The man is a legend and deserves the hall of fame. The amount of punishment he took is unbelievable and it's the little spots he does which he doesn't need to but did because it made the match better and got a pop from the crowd that i love the most, the suplex onto the edge of the steel steps for example.
I love the street fight with HHH at RR 2000, just a great brawl which made HHH look amazing and Foley look crazy, I will always prefer this to the Orton one simply because it felt that much more intense imo.
I enjoyed the Mind Games match with Michaels a lot more than I have done in the past, Foley's character work is pretty phenomenal here and him and Michaels have really good chemistry.
His match with Vader from WCW Saturday Night is a great little TV match, Vader is brutal and Foley places the face role brilliantly, real gem of a match
Hell in a Cell with Undertaker is just special, the two falls from the cage add a lot to the match but they don't MAKE the match for me, the majority of the match is very good especially when you think what a mess Foley was in.
Overall a great way to spend a few hours, Foley is probably the wrestler I respect most in the world, someone who gave everything to the business but didn't overstay his welcome. A truly amazing creative mind and also one of the best talkers in history

Living On-Campus Vs. Living at Home or Off-Campus
Pacific Lutheran University is a wonderful place to call home. Choosing to pursue an education here includes learning in and out of the classroom. A vibrant campus life, with intentional co-curricular programming in the Residence Halls is an integral part of the PLU experience. Pacific Lutheran University has a two year residency requirement, but many students find the on campus experience so satisfying that they make campus their home for the duration of their studies.
Living On Campus
There are many tangible financial benefits to living on campus.
- A college education is an investment. Living on campus is an important way to maximize the return on this investment.
- Students who live on campus generally earn higher grades than non-residential students.
- Students who live on campus are more likely to graduate than non-residential students.
- You already know the landlord – PLU.
- "Rent" is paid to PLU through Student Accounts, and Financial Aid is factored in.
- One payment covers rent, utilities (heat, water, electrical, refuse), wireless internet, and cable TV.
- Residence halls are secured buildings that hall staff and Campus Safety staff help keep safe.
- Upper Division students (junior and above) receive a reduced rate for a single room.
Intangible "value-added" benefits of living on campus include:Residential students traditionally show a stronger connection to, and greater involvement in, their college or university.
- Residential students traditionally show a stronger connection to, and greater involvement in, their college or university.
- Residential students at PLU report higher levels of satisfaction with every aspect of their PLU experience.
- Residential students are taught the life skills necessary for living with one another and in a community (compromise, communication, civility, responsibility, accountability...).
- Live-in professional staff help provide guidance and support as residents move towards independence and adult-hood.
- Residential students are less likely to miss class due to sleeping through the snooze button 11 times. (On a related note, 8:00 am classes are more likely to be filled with residential students who roll in at 7:59 wearing sweats and a baseball cap.)
- Varied living/learning community options include emphases on: social action and leadership; language and culture; arts and creative expression; first year wings with dedicated resources and assistance for the transition to the university experience.
Living At Home With You (Parent)
This is often the least expensive living option for a student, and today more than ever, this may be an important factor in the decision-making process.
Factors to consider include:
- What will the real savings be? Living at home does not save the "sticker price" of room and meals on campus.
- Check with Financial Aid to determine the amount of gift aid that will be lost if costs are reduced by having your student move home.
- Be sure to factor in the real cost incurred when your student lives at home. Consider the financial costs of commuting (gas, maintenance, insurance, parking), food (meals eaten at home and "on the road") and utilities (hot water, heat, tv/phone/internet).
- How much time will be spent commuting to/from campus and how will this impact study time, use of resources, involvement with friends, activities on campus, etc?
- How will continuing to live in your home affect your student's ability to work on establishing an independent self?
- How will you and your student manage the changing relationship between a college student and parent?
Keep in mind that only students with a permanent home address within a distance of 30 driving miles are eligible to live at home.
Living Off Campus
Living in a house or apartment near campus with a group of friends can be a great, transitional experience. PLU also offers single and apartment-style living options that incorporate the best of both worlds.
On Campus vs. Off Campus
Choosing whether to live on or off campus is a big decision with a lot of options and facts to take into consideration. As parents, you can really help guide your student through the process by helping them think through some bigger questions. Residential Life offers resources to both on and off campus students. The Residential Life team has put together a fun fact sheet comparing life on and off campus and our website has an off campus resource advertising homes and apartments for rent as well as ways for roommates to connect. Take a look at our resources, have some open conversations, and find what is right for your student and family.
Conversation starters include:
- What amenities are included on versus off campus (cable TV, internet, utilities)? What costs will/will not be included?
- Location--Will there be a commute time? What about parking? Who are your landlord and neighbors?
- Safety--What can Campus Safety offer to on campus students? How does it compare with what would be available in an off campus residence?
- Lifestyle--Will you be shopping, cooking, and cleaning for yourself? Social activities--will it be easy to be involved on campus? Who will your roommates be?
PLU is a wonderful place to call home. We in Residential Life hope this information is helpful to you and your student while talking about where to live during his or her time here.
