Northeastern University (NU), is a private, secular, coeducational research university in Boston, Massachusetts. Northeastern offers undergraduate degrees in 96 majors and master's, doctoral, and professional degrees in 158 programs from 9 colleges and schools.[4]
Founded in 1898, the university is the home of more than 35 specialized research and education centers.[citation needed] Its main campus is located in the Fenway Cultural District of Boston.[5] Northeastern is classified as a RU/H institution (high research activity) by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.[6] Among Northeastern's past and present faculty are several Guggenheim Fellows and a MacArthur Foundation "Genius Award" winner,[7] a former Democratic nominee for President of the United States,[8] and a Pulitzer Prize winner.[9]
In 2012, Northeastern received 44,189 applications for the 2,800 seats of the fall freshman class.[10] 32% of that year's applicants were accepted.[11] The upward trend in application continues in 2013 where 47,322 students applied for the 2,800 freshman seats. Northeastern's cooperative education program was one of the first of its kind in the world, with many corporate and non-profit co-op partners both in the United States and abroad. Employers have included major newspapers, popular television shows, international law firms, banks, government offices, and corporations and many Fortune 500 companies.[12]
Northeastern was established in 1898 as the "Evening Institute for Younger Men" at the Huntington Avenue YMCA.[13] Its first class was held October 3, 1898. The institute catered to the needs of the quickly growing immigrant population in Boston.[citation needed] Within a few years of its formation, it offered classes in law, engineering and finance. In 1909 the school began offering day classes, and in 1913 it moved to a new location on Huntington Avenue. The school was officially organized as a college in 1916 and in 1922 was renamed "Northeastern University of the Boston Young Men's Christian Association." In a period of rapid campus expansion, the university purchased the Huntington Avenue Grounds (former Boston Red Sox ballpark) in 1929, but did not build on the land due to financial constraints during The Great Depression.
In 1935, the College of Liberal Arts was added to Northeastern, and the university's name was simplified to "Northeastern University."[citation needed] In 1937 The Northeastern University Corporation was established, creating a board of trustees made up of 31 members of the NU Corporation and 8 members of the YMCA. In 1948 Northeastern separated itself completely from the YMCA.[14]
Following World War II, Northeastern began admitting women, and in the boom of postwar college-bound students, Northeastern created the College of Education (1953), University College (now called the College of Professional Studies)[15] (1960), the College of Pharmacy and the College of Nursing (1964). The College of Pharmacy and the College of Nursing were subsequently combined into the Bouvé College of Health Sciences. Northeastern also added the College of Criminal Justice (1967) and the College of Computer Science (1982), since renamed the College of Computer and Information Science.
Similar to a number of other urban universities, Northeastern began as a commuter school with many part-time and evening students, and by the early 1980s had grown to nearly 60,000 enrollees. By 1989-1990 the enrollment was reduced to about 40,000 full, part time and evening students, and in 1990 the university had its first graduating class with more live-on-campus than commuter students. President Kenneth Ryder retired in 1989 and the University adopted a slow and systemic system of change. Historically, the University had been accepting between 7,500 and 10,000 students per year based on applications of about 15,000 to 20,000 with acceptance rates between 50% and 75% depending on the program. The attrition rates were huge, with a nearly 25% dropout rate among freshmen and only a 50% graduation rate. The incoming class of 1984 accepted 5,672 undergraduate full time day students, yet only some 2,287 graduated in 1989. When President John Curry left office in 1996 the university population stood at about 25,000. Richard Freeland decided to focus on the kinds of students who were already graduating as the prime demographic of students accepted[citation needed] In the early 1990s, the university reduced the number of enrolled students in order to become a "smaller, better" university and began building more residence halls on campus. It cut its freshman class size from around 4,500 students to 2,800 students.[citation needed]
From 1996 to 2006, under President Richard Freeland, average SAT scores increased more than 200 points, retention rates rose dramatically, and applications doubled.[citation needed] President Freeland oversaw Northeastern's largest expansion ever, with $485 million in new facilities, including residence halls, academic and research facilities, and athletic centers. The institution also became substantially more selective, leading to a more academically talented student body.[citation needed]
During the transition, students experienced a reorganization of the co-operative education system to better integrate classroom learning with workplace experience.[citation needed] The university also switched its full-time undergraduate and graduate programs to a new academic calendar comprising two traditional semesters and two summer "minimesters," replacing the four-quarter system. This new calendar allowed students to delve more deeply into their academic courses and to experience longer, more substantive co-op placements.
Throughout the transformation, President Freeland's oft-repeated goal was to crack the Top 100 of the U.S. News rankings,[citation needed] which was accomplished in 2005. With this goal accomplished and the transformation from commuting school to national research university complete, he stepped down from the presidency on August 15, 2006. His successor, Dr. Joseph Aoun, formerly a dean at University of Southern California,[16] implemented a decentralized management model, giving the academic deans of the university more control over their own budgets, faculty hiring decisions, and fundraising.
As part of Northeastern's five-year, $75 million Academic Investment Plan,[17] the University is concentrating on three areas: undergraduate education, core graduate professional programs, and centers of research excellence. The Plan centers around the addition of 100 tenured and tenure-track professors between 2004 and 2009. This plan was recently expanded to provide for the hiring of an additional 300 tenure and tenure-track faculty in interdisciplinary fields. Aoun has also placed more emphasis on improving town relations by reaching out to leaders of the communities surrounding the university.[18] In addition, Aoun has created more academic partnerships with other institutions in the Boston area including Tufts, Hebrew College and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts.[citation needed]
Under Aoun's leadership, the university continues to climb in the rankings.[citation needed] In the 2014 edition of U.S. News and World Report's "Best Colleges Guide," Northeastern increased its ranking to 49th, up 7 spots from 2013.

Satellite campuses[edit]
In addition to Northeastern's main Boston campus, the university operates a number of remote undergraduate locations Massachusetts. The University operates the Kostas Research Institute in Burlington, a Financial District campus in the Hilton Hotel in downtown Boston, a Dedham Campus in Dedham, Massachusetts, and a Marine Science Center in Nahant, Massachusetts.[19]
Additionally, the University has launched two full service graduate campuses. The first in Charlotte, North Carolina opened October 2011 and a second campus in Seattle in 2013.[20][21][22] The University has additional plans to open campuses in Silicon Valley (California), Austin, Texas, and Minneapolis in the future.[23]
Northeastern ranks as the top private American university in the number of applications it receives annually.[citation needed] Barrons College Guides rates admission to Northeastern University as "highly competitive".[24] U.S. News and World Report rates Northeastern as "most selective." The middle 50% of admitted students for Fall 2013 had weighted GPA's of 3.7 - 4.3, SAT scores of 1990–2160 and ACT scores of 30 - 33.[25]
A report by The Huntington News, NU's newspaper, claimed that for the 114th entering class, Northeastern University received 42,948 applications from prospective freshmen for the fall term.[26] This represented a 15% surge from last year's record of 38,000 applications. For this particular year, Northeastern University beat Boston University and New York University in terms of "the most applied-to private university in the United States".[citation needed]
For the same year, the admissions rate dropped to a record-low 34.3%.[27] Approximately 3,000 students enrolled, one-sixth of them international students.
Northeastern offers undergraduate majors in 65 departments. At the graduate level, there are more than 125 programs. Academics at Northeastern is grounded in the integration of classroom studies with experiential learning opportunities, including cooperative education, student research, service learning, and global experience. The university's cooperative education program places about 5,000 students annually with more than 2,500 co-op employers in Boston, across the United States, and around the globe. In 2010, College Prowler gave Northeastern an "A-" rating for the quality of classes, professors, and overall academic environment.[28]
Colleges and schools[edit]
Colleges listed including schools and degrees offered:[29]
Honors Program[edit]
The University Honors Program offers selected students an enhanced curriculum. Starting with the First Year Reading Project and moving on to participating in a wide range of courses during the undergraduate years, the program gives students a variety of academic choices. The culminating experience is advanced specialty work in a major field through college-specific choices including specialized advanced honors seminars and an independent research project.[30] In addition, students in the Honors Program exclusively can live in a Living-Learning Community housed in West Villages C[31] and F. Since Fall 2009, first-year Honors students are housed in the North and West Towers of the newly constructed International Village residence hall.
Senior Capstone[edit]
The Senior Capstone is an advanced level course related to the student's major. The course requires the student to integrate what they have learned through their academic coursework and their experiential learning experience (co-op, research, study abroad, and service).[32][33][34][35]
Pre-med program[edit]
The university recently partnered with Tufts University School of Medicine to create an early acceptance BA/MD Program.[36] Northeastern's campus is just a few blocks from the Longwood Medical and Academic Area where Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Dental Medicine are located along with their associated world class teaching hospitals. These institutions provide NU pre-med students with significant internship opportunities. Boston is also home to a burgeoning biotechnology industry
Study abroad[edit]
Northeastern has semester-long study abroad programs with placements in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and South America. Some participating schools include: University of Edinburgh, Scotland; Reims Management School, France; European School of Business, Germany; University of Cape Town, South Africa; University of Cambridge and London School of Economics, England; University of Auckland, New Zealand; Swinburne University of Technology, Australia; Obirin University, Japan; American College of Thessaloniki, Greece and Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Chile and also Antarctica[37]
Northeastern's International Business program is a member of the International Partnership of Business Schools. Through this program International Business students have the opportunity to be awarded a dual-degree from Northeastern as well as from a sister school in Europe, Mexico or Hong Kong.
Northeastern also has the notable Dialogues of Civilizations program, which features dozens of one month-long programs (usually taking place in the summer) where a faculty member will lead a group of students in the country of their choice. A sort of "mini" study abroad, each program has an area of focus - for example, the Geneva program focuses on small arms and multilateral negotiations while the South Africa program is based in non-governmental organizations. This program is meant to be a communicative experience and an exchange of ideas and cultures. It is open to all majors and all years, and is the most popular study abroad option at Northeastern.[citation needed]
Since the arrival of President Aoun in 2006, the school has also been emphasizing co-op abroad, in an effort to make the school more global and internationally engaged. There are many programs being offered including social entrepreneurship in the Dominican Republic, Belize, and South Africa.
Northeastern also offers a program called NUin for first-year students who choose to spend their first semester studying abroad. In 2012, 500 students enrolled in the NUin program in destinations of England, Ireland, Greece, Australia, and Costa Rica.
Research Centers and Institutes at Northeastern include:[38]
The university provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to engage in research through the Center for Experiential Education,[48] CenSSIS Research Experience for Undergraduates,[49] Honors Research, Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation program,[50] and Provost's Office research grants.[51] In FY 2007, annual external research funding exceeded $78 million.[52] In FY 2009-2010, the research funding is close to $82 million.[53] In 2002, Northeastern's Center for Subsurface Sensing and Imaging Systems was designated an NSF Engineering Research Center. In 2004, Northeastern was one of six institutions selected by the National Science Foundation as a center for research in nanotechnology. In 2010, Northeastern was granted $12 million by an alum for a Homeland security research facility,[54] to be named the George J. Kostas Research Institute for Homeland Security, after its chief benefactor.[54]
Many of Northeastern's 973 full-time and part-time faculty members have garnered national and international acclaim for their achievements in teaching and research, with particular strength in interdisciplinary scholarship. Northeastern faculty members direct more than 35 research and education centers, including a National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering Research Center, an NSF Nanomanufacturing Center, and two NSF Integrated Graduate Education and Research Traineeship programs.
Co-op/internship program[edit]
Northeastern has one of the largest co-op/internship programs in the world.[55] Started in 1909, NU's co-op program is one of the oldest in the nation. In the co-op program, students alternate periods of academic study with periods of paid professional employment related to their major. Most majors offer a four-year graduation option with fewer co-op placements, but the five-year program is more popular with students. The co-op program typically spring of the second year or fall of the third year (after a more traditional program for the first semesters on campus).
Co-op placements range from small dynamic start-up companies to large multinational companies with thousands of employees, including many Fortune 500 corporations. The program also places students with government agencies, branches of government, nonprofits, and non-governmental organizations. Northeastern students can be found interning in the United States Congress, the White House, United Nations, and at NASA. Student placements usually last six months, and are mostly paid. Students may live in the university residence halls on campus during co-op employment, and the university currently leases housing for students co-oping in New York City and Washington, D.C. and assists elsewhere.
Northeastern University is also a partner with the Boston Youth Fund, which is run by the Boston Youth council and provides summer job and enrichment placement for the City of Boston.
Northeastern University is accredited by New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC)[56]
Student activities[edit]
Northeastern has over 19 varsity teams in the NCAA, over 30 club sport teams, and over 200 student organizations. Several prominent student-run organizations, including the Resident Student Association (RSA), Student Government Association (SGA), Northeastern University Television (NUTV), Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL), and the Council for University Programs (CUP) organize activities for Northeastern students as well as the surrounding community.
Fourteen of eighteen Northeastern varsity sports teams have been competing in NCAA Division I's Colonial Athletic Association, since 2005.[57]
The school sponsors the following sports teams:[57]
- (M) Baseball
- (M), (W) Basketball
- (M), (W) Cross Country
- (W) Field Hockey
- (M), (W) Hockey (in Hockey East)
- (M), (W) Rowing (in Eastern Association of Rowing Colleges and Eastern Association of Women's Rowing Colleges)
- (M), (W) Soccer
- (W) Swimming & Diving
- (M), (W) Track and Field
- (W) Volleyball
The NU mascot is Paws. The school colors are red and black with white trim. The fight song, "All Hail, Northeastern", was composed by Charles A. Pethybridge, Class of 1932.
Some notable athletes have played for Northeastern's sports teams. Dan Ross played football at Northeastern long before setting the Super Bowl record for receptions in a game. Reggie Lewis still holds the men's basketball career scoring record. Carlos Peña was named Major League Baseball's American League Comeback Player of the Year in 2007 and an AL Gold Glove winner in 2008. The U.S. Olympic women's ice hockey teams have included Northeastern alumni Shelley Looney and Chanda Gunn.
The baseball team has competed in one College World Series and played in the NCAA regionals seven times.[57]
In its first year in the CAA, the men's basketball team finished in 6th place (out of 12 teams) and advanced to the semifinals of the conference tournament. The CAA proved to be a competitive conference in the 2006 NCAA Basketball Tournament, as George Mason University advanced all the way to the Final Four. In 2007, its second year in the CAA, the women's track team captured the conference championship, while the volleyball team finished second. The women's basketball team won 10 more games in 2008 than the previous year, the biggest one-year turnaround in the CAA, and advanced to the tournament quarterfinals.
Northeastern's men's and women's hockey teams compete in the Hockey East Conference. During the 2007–08 season, the men's team ranked as high at #7 in the country and held the top spot in the conference before finishing the season in sixth place in Hockey East. Both teams also participate in the annual Beanpot tournament between the four major Boston-area colleges. Northeastern's men's team has won the annual event 4 times in its 54-year history, while the women's team has captured the Beanpot 14 times. During the 2008–2009 season, the men's team ranked as high as 3rd in the nation and held the top spot in Hockey East until the last weekend of the season; the team made the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1994, the Beanpot championship game for the first time since 2004, and goalie Brad Thiessen made the Hobey Hat Trick, only the second Northeastern player to do so.
The Northeastern Crew team consistently ranks as one of the top 10 teams in the nation.[58] In the 2008 National Championship, the team made the Grand Finals and placed fourth behind University of Wisconsin–Madison, University of Washington, and University of California, Berkeley, while beating Brown University, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania and Harvard University.[59]
Northeastern offers 40 club sports, including judo, rugby, lacrosse, squash, cycling and ultimate frisbee. In 2005 the women's rugby team finished third in the nation in Division II, while in the same year the men's rugby team won the largest annual tournament in the United States. The men's lacrosse team began the 2008 season ranked in the Top 10 nationally. The men's and women's squash team finished the 2008 season ranked in the Top 20 nationally. In the 2008–2009 academic year the Northeastern Club Field Hockey and Women's Basketball teams won their respective National Championships. From 2007 to 2009, the Northeastern Club Baseball team won three straight New England Club Baseball Association championships.[60] On May 25, 2010 the club baseball team defeated Penn State to win the National Club Baseball Association Division II World Series and national championship.[61]
Citing sparse attendance, numerous losing seasons and the expense to renovate Parsons Field to an acceptable standard, the university Board of Trustees voted on November 20, 2009, to end the football program. According to president Joseph Aoun, "Leadership requires that we make these choices. This decision allows us to focus on our existing athletic programs."[62]
Northeastern is located in Boston's Fenway, Roxbury and Back Bay neighborhoods adjacent to Huntington Avenue near the Museum of Fine Arts and Symphony Hall. The area is also known as the Fenway Cultural District.[5]
Although located in the heart of Boston, the NU campus is still filled with trees, flowers, and grassy quads. Since the late 1990s, Northeastern has been considered a model of design for urban universities and has twice won the "most beautiful new or renovated exterior space" award (presented by the American Institute of Architects) in 2001 and 2004.[citation needed] The site of the first baseball World Series is commemorated, in front of Northeastern's Churchill hall, by a statue of Cy Young.
Matthews Arena[edit]
Opened in 1910 and widely known as the Boston Arena, Matthews Arena is the world's oldest surviving indoor ice hockey arena.[citation needed] Located on the east edge of Northeastern University's campus, it is home to the Northeastern Huskies men's and women's hockey teams, and men's basketball team as well as the Wentworth Institute of Technology's men's hockey team. The arena is named after former Chair of the Board of Trustees George J. Matthews and his wife, the late Hope M. Matthews. The arena is the original home of the NHL Boston Bruins and the WHA New England Whalers (now the NHL Carolina Hurricanes). It was also the secondary home to the NBA Boston Celtics in the 1940s. It has hosted all or part of the America East Conference men's basketball tournament a total of seven times and hosted the 1960 Frozen Four. The arena also served as the original home to the annual Beanpot tournament between Boston's four major college hockey programs.
Marino Recreation Center[edit]
The Marino Center features on its first floor an atrium with two cafés and a food market. The second floor includes a student exercise area, a multipurpose room is used for aerobics classes and martial arts clubs. The gymnasium consists of three basketball courts. On the third floor, a state-of-the-art resistance training area and a fully equipped free weight room. A three-lane suspended track is available for either walking or jogging, and rowing ergometers are available.
Library facilities[edit]
The NU Libraries include the Snell Library, the John D. O'Bryant African-American Institute Library, and the library at the NU Marine Science Center in Nahant, Massachusetts. The NU School of Law Library is separately administered by the NU School of Law.
Snell Library opened in 1990 at a cost of $35 million and contains 1.3 million volumes. The Digital Media Design Studio within the library is a collaborative and interdisciplinary learning environment for creating course-related multimedia presentations, projects and portfolios. The library is home to the Favat Collection, a current collection of children's literature and K-12 curriculum resources, instructional materials, and related information to support courses offered by the School of Education. It contains three computer labs operated by NU Information Services. Two are available to all NU students, faculty, and staff; the other is a teaching lab. .
The NU Libraries received federal depository designation in 1962. As a selective depository, the Libraries receive forty-five percent of the federal publication series available to depository libraries.
The Snell Library is also home to the Northeastern University Archives and Special Collections department, which includes the Benjamin LaGuer papers collection. The Special Collections focus on records of Boston-area community-based organizations that are concerned with social justice issues.[63]
Snell Library is also open 24 hours a day, allowing students to study at any given time.[64]
Spiritual Life Center and Sacred Space[edit]
Within the urban environment that characterizes the campus as a whole, NU has carved out a quiet, peaceful space in the centrally located Ell Building for the Spiritual Life Center's Sacred Space. The nondenominational Sacred Space, the Center's main assembly hall, can be configured with carpets, mats or chairs. It has a distinctive ceiling consisting of 3 hanging domes made of overlapping aluminum tiles with an origami-like effect, warm wood floors and accents, and glass-panelled walls that lean outward slightly, their shape and material giving a sense of openness and volume to the space. Faucets for ablution are available in a flanking antechamber, and the Center also contains a smaller meeting space and library.[65] The Sacred Space opened in 1998. The architects Office dA (Nader Tehrani & Monica Ponce de Leon) received the 2002 Harleston Parker Medal from the Boston Society of Architects for the design.[citation needed]
West Village[edit]
The West Village complex includes eight buildings serving mainly as residence halls and classrooms.
- Building A (opened 1999): Residence Hall (two sections, West Village A North and South).
- Building B (opened 2001): Residence Hall.
- Building C (opened 2001): Residence Hall (several floors for upperclassmen honors students) and one classroom.
- Building D - Behrakis Health Science Center (opened 2002): classrooms and laboratories
- Building E (opened 2002): Residence Hall.
- Building G (opened 2004): Residence Hall and several classrooms.
- Building H (opened 2004): Residence Hall. Open to students who are over the age of 21 . New home of the College of Computer and Information Science (several classrooms, offices and computer labs).
- Building F (opened 2006): Residence Hall for upper-class honors students, classrooms, John D. O'Bryant African-American Institute, Admissions Visitors Center.
The plans for Building K, a 22-story high rise housing 600 beds, have been suspended indefinitely as a result of the troubled economy.[66]
South Campus (Columbus Avenue)[edit]
Northeastern University's southernmost section of campus is located along Columbus Avenue in Roxbury, parallel to the Orange line. The University expanded south into Roxbury at the same time as they were building West Village. In 2001, Davenport Commons was opened, providing 585 students housing in two residence halls while 75 families representing a range of incomes have been able to purchase a condo or townhouse at or below Boston's market value. Davenport Commons also created commercial space on Tremont Street .[67]
During the summer of 2006, Northeastern University proposed a new residence hall further away from the main campus, at the corner of Tremont Street and Ruggles Street. Construction began in late February 2007. The building opened in Fall 2009 and has a total of 22 stories. In the Spring of 2009, The complex was named International Village and opened later that Summer. Its nicknames include "IV" and "INV." It consists of three residence halls, an office complex and administration building, and a gym. The residence halls house honors freshman and all levels of upperclassmen. A 400 seat dining hall available to all members of the Northeastern community as well as the public, along with several fast food locations.
The following buildings make up the South Campus,:
Residential buildings
Administrative buildings
Athletic buildings
Dodge Hall[edit]
Dodge Hall is mainly used for Northeastern's business programs (Before Snell Library opened in 1990, it served as the university's main library). Dodge Hall has five floors. The basement houses a computer lab and is connected to the university's large network of underground tunnels which connects many buildings.
Classrooms and a lounge area occupy the first floor. The D'Amore-McKim School of Business undergraduate office is on the second floor, and the graduate[68] office is on the third floor. The School of Professional Accounting office is on the fourth floor.
Directly behind Dodge Hall is the YMCA where Northeastern was founded. There is currently a 17-story high-rise residence hall being built behind the YMCA, scheduled for completion by the Fall 2014 semester.
The most recent Sustainable Endowments Institute's College Sustainability Report Card issued Northeastern a grade of "A-" for its environmental sustainability efforts and programs.[69] Additionally, the Princeton Review rated Northeastern as one of the top 15 "Green Colleges" in the nation in 2010.[70] In 2011, the GreenMetric World University ranking evaluated Northeastern as the second greenest university in the world, and first in the US.[71]
In accordance with a Boston zoning code amendment in 2007,[72] the International Village residence hall was certified as a LEED Gold building in 2010.[73] Dockser Hall was the first building on campus to achieve LEED certification, also Gold, with the completion of its renovation in 2010.[74]
Public safety[edit]
The University Police Department is a full-service law enforcement agency with full powers of arrest on university property or property used by Northeastern students and faculty. The campus is adjacent to the Boston Police Department's Headquarters. A 2008 Reader's Digest survey ranked NU as the second safest school in the United States after Johns Hopkins University in Maryland.[75][76]
Public transportation[edit]
Northeastern is bracketed by the MBTA's Orange Line and Green Line "E" Branch. Six stations serve the campus: Massachusetts Avenue and Ruggles on the Orange Line; and Symphony, Northeastern, Museum of Fine Arts, and Longwood Medical Area on the Green Line. The Green Line is paralleled by the #39 bus. Ruggles also serves several of the southside lines of the MBTA Commuter Rail system.
Campus development background[edit]
Northeastern's campus is mostly located along Huntington Avenue in an area known as the "Fenway Cultural District" which is part of Boston's Fenway and Back Bay neighborhoods. Other notable institutions in the district include: the Museum of Fine Arts, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Symphony Hall, the Huntington Theater, New England Conservatory, Boston Conservatory, Berklee College of Music, Christian Science Center, Mary Baker Eddy Library and Harvard School of Public Health.
Northeastern's campus is something of an urban oddity; despite its location in central Boston, Northeastern is home to a remarkable amount of green open space and quads.[77]
A site master planning competition awarded a contract to revive and rejuvenate the campus; the process was started in 1988 with the creation of the new Northeastern Quad and Mt Ryder. A small oval of land centrally located at the campus main entrance was refurbished by the donations of the graduating class of 1989.
What was once a concrete square, outside of the library and student center, was transformed with brick pavers and granite curb stones, in a scalloped design that would eliminate all square corners, a concept developed by the outgoing class of 1989 in a "Northeastern News" poll and suggestion to the President Box that was presented to the board of Trustees in March 1988. The "No Corners" campaign kicked off with a fund raiser at the Ell Student Center on Parents weekend in October 1988. The later selection of a nationally recognized green space landscape architect[who?]in 1990 started a renewal plan that continues today. Since the late 1990s Northeastern has twice won the "most beautiful new or renovated exterior space" award presented by the American Institute of Architects in 2001 and again in 2004. In 2008, West Village Building F was recognized in American Institute of Architects New England 2008 Merit Awards for Design Excellence.[78]
In 2003, Northeastern was awarded the prestigious gold medal by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society for its Dedham Campus.[citation needed]

MR. Glynn, as I wrote previously Urbanica's original proposal is not up for vote on Monday night.…Read MoreI will remind you though, that Urbanica's original proposal was ranked very highly based on RFP criteria. Considerable amount of time and money has been spent on our proposal and yet the residents have not been able to hear or vote on it. The extension will allow Urbanica to work with the advisory group and therefore it allows the Town to make any needed changes to our original proposal.

I encourage people to read the letter of extension drafted by The Cecil Group which will be…Read Morereviewed by the newly formed JST/OL Working Group at their initial meeting. You will see It provides the flexibility the authors are looking for to permit development and consideration of other ideas. Passing article 4 provides the town greater flexibility in possible end uses for these buildings. Article 6 is advisory but encourages constraining our choices. I encourage you to vote yes on 4 and no on 6.

Voting YES on…Read MoreArtic le 6 will INCREASE, not constrain choices by making it easier for alternative proposals to Urbanica to be brought forward for evaluation. Urbanica's "preferred developer" status has been a major impediment to consideration of other possible uses for these important buildings.

Thank you Tom for your kind words. And I would return the compliments for your time and effort on…Read Moreb ehalf of our town. Your engagement is commendable. You are correct that the Letter of Intent did in fact constrain our ability to consider other possibilities. The extension that has been proposed removes that constraint by giving us the right to terminate at any time. And Urbanica has offered to help or step aside if the town chooses to go in a different direction. So, Article 6 is a solution to a problem that no longer exists.

Hi Isabella -- Since you weren't at last night's meeting let me set the record straight. I said…Read Moreexp licitly I am interested in hearing the discussions on the two articles and those would be factors we would consider. No one said we didn't want to hear what residents had to say. The Board will speak on both issues to explain that they are advisory in nature and why we think they should be voted down. That is not the same as saying we don't want to hear what voters say. If I understand your line of reasoning, speaking against the motion is the same as squelching debate -- to my view that IS debate.

As a Shamrock Club member, you are privy to insider information on all things Irish. This time we will let you in on our favorite Irish pubs around the country we have discovered with painstaking research. With this new found information you will now be considered the most knowledgeable publican on your block.
1. McSorleys, New York City 15 East 7th Street, New York, NY 10003. 212 474 9148
This legendary pub, dating back to 1854 as the city's oldest, stands out like a green emerald among the hundreds of Irish bars and restaurants that dot the New York City green, white, and orange landscape. The pub has served perfect pints to such luminaries as Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Woody Guthrie and just recently to women in 1970.
2. Fado, 100 W Grand Avenue, Chicago. 312-836-0066
The windy city has a burgeoning Irish community marked by its grand St. Patrick's day parade that swaths the whole city in Kelly green and Even its river. Fado is a must-visit place, especially on March 17th when the pub hosts a charity head shave, rugby and soccer matches on big screen TVs as well as lively music nights. The name translates into "long ago" (pronounced "f'doe") and was a phrase used as a preface of ancient Irish tales.
3. Kitty O'Sheas 131 State Street in Boston. 617-725-0100
In a town indisputably home to the densest population of the Irish is reflected in the number of Boston's Irish pubs. The one that stands out is this winner of the highly-coveted award winner for best pub in Boston in 2012. Hosting two bars on two floors Kitty O'Sheas is known for great food and better craig located in the historical district of Boston, Faneuil Hall.
4. McGillins, at 1310 Drury Street, Philadelphia. 215-735-5562
Since the 1860s the taps have been pouring the finest of Irish lagers and ales for its devout patrons. McGillins acts as the nerve center during the oldest St. Patrick's day of the year, namely the Philadelphia St. Patricks Day parade to be held on the 10th of March this year. The pub will be celebrating all that week with beer specials and the like.
5. O'Reilly's at 622 Green Street, San Francisco. 415-989-6222
This Irish pub is the go-to spot when in search of a truly authentic Irish experience with superb food as described by the locals. Make your California St. Patricks Day even sunnier with a visit to O'Reillys.
6. Waxy O'Connors 1095 SE 17th St. Fort Lauderdale, Florida 954-525-WAXY
Known for its spirited three-day St. Patricks Day parties, Waxy's provides a warm, yet relaxed atmosphere for all its patrons whether it be a yaght crew or businessman. Imported beers and mouth-watering pub faire beckons all to come to visit this hot Irish Floridian spot.

8. Kevin Barry's Pub 117 West River Street Savannah, Georgia. 912-233-9626
In this beloved pub in the Irish southern heartland of Savannah everybody knows your name. Housed in one of the city's oldest buildings this establishment looks right over the Savannah river. Beloved for its fine selection of Irish spirits and food, Kevin Barry's is recognized most for its sublime live Irish music. In fact, it was the first pub to offer live music south of Washington, DC.
9. Dubliner Restaurant 520 N. Capitol Street Northwest, Washington, D.C. 202-737-3773
Located within walking distance of the halls of congress, The Dubliner is always packed to the gills. So authentic is this pub that it could easily be as well-suited for McConnell Street as it is for Massachusetts Street. The Dubliner is proudly named after James Joyce's claasic novel of the same name. For tourist and St. Patricks' Day celebrant alike the Dubliner makes for an enjoyable Irish experience.
10. The Harp, 4408 Detroit Ave. (W 44th St.) Cleveland, OH 44113
This pub and restaurant offers stunning views of Lake Erie. Every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday some of the best Irish musicians around gather at the Harp play a lively session until closing. Some of the Irish delicacies to be found on the bar's menu include bourbon-glazed lamb chops and grilled potato pancakes to die for. The Harp
Isn't Bennigans a chain restuarant,Like Lawery's O'Shaunney's,Tam O'Shanery's and Robert Burns? And Ha! I know two of the best Irish pubs in the Los Angeles area...and I'm keeping the names to myself!
McMullan's in Las Vegas is a relatively undiscovered GEM! It's off The Strip, so most visitors don't know of its existence. The McMullan family, however, has been in the undertaking and pub business (yes, really!)for many years in Ireland. You are likely to be served by an Irish person, and the food, drink and atmosphere are authentic and first rate. No, I don't work there and I'm not part of the family, but I assure you it's one of my first and most frequent stops every time I'n in Las Vegas!
this listing seems like a lazy harvesting of low hanging fruit... high profile joints in major cities with strong Irish populations... truly the only way to make a meaningful list of best Irish pubs would be to enlist Irish American organizations in various cities to study the matter and pronounce the winner for their area. no organization, no representation. Such a list would become something worthy of followup be travelling readers of IC.
Yesterday I had lunch w/a Guinness @ McCabe's in Naples, FL: the dark stuff was cold (the way I like it) but was served too quickly (well under the prescribed 119 seconds); the reuben was skimpy and the fries were soggy . . . and the place was virtually empty. It seems since their across-the-street annex went UP, the overall scene has gone DOWN . . . obviously not a candidate for this august list.
Wide swings in the quality of this list-- The Dubliner is indeed one of the great Irish bars in America, and its great music line up isn't mentioned. However, I agree with de Moinbhiol, that Fado, a corporate manifestation, shouldn't rank so high (but in fairness, it does show Irish football and it does serve excellent Guinness on tap). Finally, Bennigan's?? This must be a joke. I don't know about "Turkey O'Toole" sandwiches, but this pick is a true turkey.
I would be happy to conduct some research on the subject for expense reimbursement only.
Only one place in NYS?
This list has no credibility. Fado at number 2 is ridiculous. I understand Fado is downtown and centrally located but, there are dozens of places better than Fado in Chicago. I should know I've been going to some of these places over the last thirty years. Fado at #2 is a joke. We are closer to St. Patricks Day than we are to April Fools Day. Coinnigh an creadamh, RdeM.
I'm curious to know where Rory Dolan's ranks among the nation's Irish pubs, even though I've never had a drink there. I've been a teetotaler all my life and never felt the need for booze or any other mind-altering drug, even during the 4 years I served in the Marine Corps.Nowadays I enjoy the camraderie of my fellow veterans at American Legion posts upstate, some of which serve corned beef and cabbage around St. Patrick's Day.
McSorley's was established in 1862. And the only thing better than picking a Bennigan's as one of the top 10 Irish Pubs in the USA, is picking a Bennigan's that isn't open anymore.
Bennigan's? Seriously?
Good Choice's, but my two favorites aren't on the list: 1)Annie Bailey's, Lancaster, PA 2) McGuire's Irish Pub, pensacola, FL

So I'm extremely new to all this and couldn't find help anywhere.
Rigorous search only kept linking me to the steps you have to take and I've done it all hundreds and hundreds of times.
So, I have a fatty fat fat fat PS3 on OFW 4.21, the Flasher worked fine and what not (or so I'm led to believe by the tutorials). The problem comes when I load in my downgrader file into the card reader.
I turned off the power switch (just to be safe, I've done it with the switch on), unplugged it, put in the card, plugged it back in (turned the power switch back on in the cases that it was off), turned on the power and immediately hit eject.
This causes the red light to come on and the screen stays black for a while, however eventually the red light turns off, the blue light never comes on, and the PS3 boots up as if nothing ever happened.
Just to make sure I didn't miss the light coming on I followed through with the steps and I never get into service mode, I'm using a FAT32 USB dongle for my other files. I just don't know what I've done wrong. I had to reset my connections a couple of times before the Flasher worked properly, but I don't think that has anything to do with it.
I'm sorry if this has been answered a million and one times but I've done as much looking and hair pulling as I could and couldn't find any form of help. So if anybody has any suggestions or know what the issue is it would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: And like an Idiot I was holding shift when pressing "3" for the thread title. Wonderful start.

Dean Collins sells a desktop software application called My Twitter Butler. By all appearances, it's pretty spammy. It enables Twitter users to auto-follow other users based on keywords they use and permits the mass-sending of DMs to followers.
Twitter doesn't like My Twitter Butler and Twitter's high-powered Silicon Valley law firm, Fenwick & West, sent Collins a letter demanding that he "deactivate" his website, transfer the MyTwitterButler.com domain name to Twitter, stop using the My Twitter Butler name and begin complying with Twitter's Terms of Service. Or else.

In my post earlier this week about Google Caffeine, I made the observation that certain Facebook Pages seemed to have received quite a rankings boost. I also noted some comments about Twitter pages receiving a boost as well.
As more and more people give Caffeine a whirl, the increased prominence of results from the social media sphere appears to be a widespread phenomenon.

We've heard lots of talk about the death of blogs and blogging, with fingers invariably pointed at the likes of Twitter and Facebook. The truth is a bit more straightforward. Blogging was never really as big as everybody said it was.
Well, here's the good news: blogging is back. Except now it's called microblogging. And it's great.

Facebook has been increasingly compared to Google of late, and the social network's acquisition of FriendFeed yesterday might make some large strides toward getting its functionality closer to that of the search giant. FriendFeed may not have the audience or cache that Twitter has right now, but it has something else that Facebook values: search functionality.
Twitter's popularity has escalated as FriendFeed has stagnated, but the company offers more than just executive programming talent to bring to the Facebook team. If Facebook expects to be the dominant player in the social media space (and it does), it's going to need to make itself an important aggregation tool. And FriendFeed can help with that.

When Google updates, SEOs around the world hold their breath. For websites that rely heavily on their Google SERPs for traffic, an algorithm change can sometimes mean the difference between profitability and the poorhouse.
Google's newest update, named Caffeine, is by all appearances more than just a regular update. Google describes it as a "next-generation architecture for Google's web search".

By most accounts, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg really likes Twitter. And as the 20-something CEO of a company that has raised over $750m, it's only natural that he'd want it, literally. There's just one problem: when Facebook tried acquiring Twitter earlier in the year, it was turned down. The reason: Twitter didn't buy into the $15bn valuation Facebook was basing its share price on as part of the proposed deal.
So Facebook has finally done what many do when rejected: you settle for your second choice. And it this case, that means FriendFeed, which it acquired yesterday.

I'm not one of those people who claims that social media doesn't do anything for your search results. On the contrary, I think it absolutely helps SEO.
For some, any notion that Twitter could influence your search rankings was blown into smithereens when it was revealed that Google pays no attention to links from Twitter. Call the cops!
That kind of thinking totally misses the point, because Twitter is a network of networks. Yours and mine, for starters. And I bet you that they're overlapping right now, if you're reading this and also active on Twitter. People talk beyond the virtual walls of Twitter. The network effect is an almighty thing when it's in full swing. Raising awareness in a meaningful and relevant way is what Twitter is all about, as far as our business is concerned.
In any event, Twitter can also directly affect Google rankings for you in a positive way, starting with universal search...

Twitter is down. LiveJournal has been down, although it appears to be back up. Facebook users are experiencing problems too. What's going on?
In Twitter's case, the culprit has been confirmed as a denial-of-service attack. A note on the Twitter status page states "we are defending against a denial-of-service attack". There is no word yet on the cause of the LiveJournal and Facebook issues that have been reported. Needless to say, the fact that three popular social networking services are all having a bad morning hints at the possibility that the most important parts of the social internets are under siege.

Yesterday, I discussed the official launch of Sponsored Tweets and voiced my opinion about the service. I wasn't impressed. But there's a saying about opinions that starts with "Opinions are like...".
So I thought it would be helpful to look at Sponsored Tweets from a different perspective: performance. The proof is always in the pudding and when it comes to marketing, that means that the proof is in the performance.

I recently come across a guy selling some arcade games in my area. He has a few, but the only one I am interested in is a Joust machine. The problem is it is not working. He says the coin door lights power up, but thats it, but claims cosmetically it is in really nice shape. He gave me a price of $300, which I think is a bit steep for a non-working game.
My questions are: Does it sound like an easy fix or no way to tell??
What's a fair price to offer??
I have no knowledge on fixing these games, but am willing to try if its not too complicated. Normally I would not try on something non-working, but Joust is one of my favorites.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks!
