Mercyhurst is a great place to be. The campus is beautiful, almost Hogwarts-esque with it's Gothic architecture. It is small enough that it isn't overwhelming and the teacher student ratio is phenomenal, the professors really care about their students.Read More
Mercyhurst may not be the most modernized campus. However, the professors they have on staff are truly amazing. They care about your personal and academic success. This helps student succeed more than a highly modernized campus.Read More
The setting and small size affords students the opportunity to establish relationships with their professors.Read More
Mercyhurst offers many majors, clubs, and programs for everyone. They're very good at helping the students interact with each other. However, the only negative thing I can say is that the people in financial aid office are rude and don't communicate well at all.Read More
The campus is absolutely beautiful. The teachers are supportive and are always available to give assistance. The city is a little small, and not many fun things are in walking distance.Read More
Mercyhurst is a really nice environment. I like that it is like a little community. It is a really nice place.Read More
Small campus where you can make friends quickly...and get across in a few minutes if you are running late. The food is not the best but usually it's ok, just stay away from the wheat pizza. Overall, glad I chose this school, great program and staff.Read More
The campus at Mercyhurst is beautiful and the campus size is perfect. I wish the class sizes were smaller, as I was told they were when I applied, and the grading scales are challenging. I love the passion some professors and employees have for helping the students succeed.Read More
Mercyhurst college is a great college with a good atmosphere. The people here want you succeed and they wont let you fail. Also their are lots of great clubs and activities you can join.Read More

My Story
I have just finished my second cycle at the "Brain Injury Day Treatment Program" at the Rusk Institute of NYU Medical Center.
I have just finished my second cycle at the "Brain Injury Day Treatment Program" at the Rusk Institute of NYU Medical Center.
Recently, on a sunny September afternoon Jim Hess saw his worlds collide — sort of. Hess, the new director of alumni relations at Grinnell College, was in Washington, D.C., his former home, at a picnic for Grinnell alumni and students.
Tenure: on its face, not the loveliest of words. But there are few as sweet in the ears of an early-career academic. Tenure signifies job security, the acceptance of one's senior colleagues, a feeling of belonging and - perhaps most importantly - support for a life's work.
Grinnell College president emeritus George Drake '56 looks back on the 100-year history of Grinnell's Phi Beta Kappa chapter, Beta of Iowa.
Perhaps we've all had a flash of inspiration that we were positive would lead to success: the million-dollar idea, the can't-miss business concept, the surefire solution to a vexing problem.
While most of us never get those great ideas off the drawing board, the Grinnellians on these pages have turned their visions into reality. From part-time businesses to companies with a global reach, they've found willing buyers for their innovative approaches.
It wasn't real. We black-robed, silly-hatted seniors gathered outside of ARH to wait for the exercises of commencement to start -- which meant we were graduating.
Service is a time-honored Grinnell tradition--offering assistance to the less fortunate, to those who are least able to help themselves.
Warren Morrow '99 and Max Cardenas '01 are great exemplars of the Grinnell tradition of innovative thinking.
While activism is continually reinterpreted for each generation at Grinnell, Warren Morrow and Max Cardenas are part of a Grinnell tradition of innovative thinking and action that includes such exemplars as Harry Hopkins '12 and Robert Noyce '49.

Product description
This study presents a revised view of Egyptian foreign relations in the eastern Mediterranean during the Old Kingdom (3rd-6th Dynasties) based on an extensive analysis of old and new archaeological data, and its relationship to the well-known textual sources. The material demonstrates that while Egypt's most important relationships were with Byblos and the Lebanese coast generally, it was an active participant in the geo-political and economic affairs of the Levant throughout much of the third millennium BCE. The archaeological data shows that the foundation of these relationships was established at the beginning of the Early Dynastic Period and essentially continued until the end of the 6th Dynasty with ebbs, flows and changes of geographical and political emphasis. It is argued that, despite the paucity of textual data, the 4th Dynasty represents the apogee of Egypt's engagement in the region, a time when the centralised state was at the height of its power and control of human and economic capital. More broadly, this study shows that Egyptian interaction in the eastern Mediterranean fits the pattern of state-to-state contact between ruling elites which was underpinned by official expeditions engaged in gift and commodity exchange, diplomatic endeavours and military incursions.

Smith can't get key out, Indians lose 5-4
CLEVELAND Joe Smith couldn't get the one out his team needed, and the result was a frustrating loss for the Cleveland Indians.
Smith, trying to pitch out of a ninth-inning jam, gave up Munenori Kawasaki's two-run single with the bases loaded that sparked a three-run rally as the Indians fell to the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 on Tuesday night.
"I thought I could get one out," Smith said. "I don't know how many runs I gave up. Three, at least? That stinks. I got to get one out."
Smith, pitching for the fourth straight day, relieved Rich Hill (0-1) with two outs and a runner on first. Pinch hitter J.P. Arencibia singled and Emilio Bonifacio walked to load the bases. Smith got ahead in the count 1-2 but Kawasaki lined a hit into left-center field to score two runs. A third run scored when center fielder Michael Bourn booted the ball for an error.
Smith wouldn't use the fact he's been getting a lot of work recently as an excuse.
"I said I was good," he said. "I felt all right but I wasn't good. I was far from that, that's for sure."
"Smitty had faced Arencibia four times and struck him out four times," Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. "That's the matchup we wanted. With Kawasaki, he just left the ball over the plate and Bourny mishandled it for the unearned run."
The Indians rallied in the bottom of the inning off Blue Jays closer Casey Janssen, who had converted 17 of 18 save chances. Asdrubal Cabrera's two-out single and Kawasaki's throwing error cut the lead to 5-4 but Steve Delabar retired Michael Brantley on a fly ball for his first career save.
"We battled back at the end," Smith said. "If I could have given up one run, we would have won the game."
Neil Wagner (2-3) struck out Ryan Raburn with the bases loaded to end the eighth after the Indians tied the game on Brantley's single.
Indians starter Justin Masterson took a two-hit shutout into the seventh but Bonifacio's two-run single put the Blue Jays ahead.
The Indians tied the game in the eighth on Brantley's RBI single off All-Star reliever Brett Cecil.
The Blue Jays, who had been blanked in two of their last three games, struggled against Masterson. Toronto finally broke through thanks to two hits and a pair of walks.
Toronto starter Esmil Rogers allowed one run in six innings.
Adam Lind doubled with one out in the seventh and moved to third on a groundout. Izturis walked on four pitches before Thole walked on a 3-2 pitch to load the bases. Bonifacio, who struck out with a runner on third to end the fifth, lined a 2-1 pitch into right field to score Lind and Izturis, giving Toronto the lead.
The clutch hit came on Masterson's 120th and final pitch of the night. The right-hander, a member of the American League All-Star team, allowed four hits, struck out six and walked five.

Apple's famed for its secrecy when it comes to new products in the same way that Intel's known for its openness. So with the partnership between the two companies well under way, we find out whether we'll remain in the dark when it comes to new Apple products.
Confused? You're not alone. But worry not, Dunnington lore won't be on the test, that six-core beast is unlikely to ever make it into any Mac Pro.
Mac Pros use Intel's 5000-series Xeons, which fit into their dual-processor platform codenamed Stoakley. Dunnington is a 7000-series Xeon, designed for the quad-processor, server-level platform codenamed Caneland.
You're also to be forgiven if you were never informed that Intel and Apple have two different definitions for the term 'desktop processor'.
When Intel introduced its Core 2 Duo processor line, the first desktop processor out of the gate was codenamed Conroe. This chip, however, never made it into an Apple 'desktop' computer. The iMac was instead built around what Intel referred to as a 'mobile processor', codenamed Merom.
Merom's replacement, which shipped in November of last year, is codenamed Penryn, and it comes in many flavours with more to come.
For example, Intel confirmed last month that it will release a quad-core Penryn later this year. Although this chip is identified by Intel as a mobile processor, its power appetite (defined as its Thermal Design Power or TDP) is expected to be a hefty 45W.
In comparison, the TDP of the new Penryn-equipped MacBook Pro is 35W and if you've had one on your lap for any amount of time, you know it's already pushing the thermal envelope. The increased TDP would also, of course, more-quickly drain battery power.
That said, there are plenty of 17in MacBook Pro-using video editors who'd kill for those two extra cores when encoding on location, plugged into AC or not. The 17-incher also has more room for cooling technologies and batteries, should Apple care to make use of those extra cubic inches.
- Visit PC Advisor's Apple spotlight for the latest Apple news and opinion
- Visit PC Advisor's Intel spotlight for the latest Intel news
The core of the matter
A quad-core iMac isn't out the question either, but this talk of multiple cores begs another question. Namely, are extra cores worth the extra money, heat, and power? The answer, of course, is "It depends".
Each core needs to be fed enough data and instructions to keep it humming along efficiently, and many if not most applications these days aren't smart enough to take full advantage of multiple cores.
Intel is working on a pair of technologies to help the transition into the multicore world: Speculative Parallel Threading (SPT), which will work to exploit all cores in real time, and Transactional Memory (TM), which will ensure that the work threading its way through one core doesn't muck up the work done by another core. However, the real solution to multicore management will be highly optimised software, and that'll take some time.
What's more, multicore machines, think eight-core Mac Pros for example, work best when their storage systems can provide torrents of data to their processors. A Mac Pro can be tricked out with a fast internal RAID array. Not so a single-drive quad-core iMac.

Casiño calls for debates on environmental issues
MANILA, Philippines—A day after Earth Day, senatorial hopeful Teodoro Casiño challenged his fellow candidates to a debate on issues plaguing the environment and to reveal their environmental platforms.
"At a time when the Philippines and the rest of the world are experiencing climate change and worsening disasters, it is imperative that public servants know not only how to make the economy work, but also how to protect the environment," he said.
"I think it is very important to know where candidates stand in terms of environmental degradation and resource development," the three-term congressman added in a statement.
Casiño said there should be a forum where the candidates could discuss environmental issues and allow the public to ask questions. "The public needs senators who have long-term solutions to address climate change and other environmental issues instead of those who are mouthing motherhood statements to achieve their personal interests," he said.
He said the government should prioritize biodiversity protection and the wise use of natural resources. "Renewable energy should also be developed and promoted to make electricity affordable and cleaner in the long run," he added.
Casiño said he has long been an advocate of the environment, noting the investigations he had called for regarding reclamation, mining, genetically modified organisms, and the grounding of ships in the Tubbataha reefs.
"Often, these are issues affecting not only the environment but also the community — indigenous peoples, local livelihood and social services," he said.
Casiño is the author of the People's Mining Bill, which pushes for a pro-people and pro-environment mining industry, One Million Solar Roofs Act, which provides for incentives and financing facilities to encourage the use of solar energy by small electricity consumers, and the Meatless Monday Bill, which encourages the consumption of vegetables to promote good health and help lessen carbon emissions.
