Upper West Siders loudly objected to a controversial proposal to build a high-rise nursing home in the neighborhood at a packed public meeting Tuesday night.
Jewish Home Lifecare, which operates a nursing home on 106th Street, is planning to construct the new 20-story building on 97th Street, in the middle of the Park West Village housing complex. This summer, the company was ordered to complete an Environmental Impact Statement after a study conducted by opponents of the development showed the possibility of toxic levels of lead in the construction site, which is currently a parking lot.
The meeting was held by the state Department of Health at public school P.S. 163, on 97th Street between Amsterdam and Columbus avenues, next to the development site. Known as a scoping meeting, it was organized to give members of the public an opportunity to comment on the scope of the EIS—how thorough it should be and what metrics it should encompass.
Locals crowded into the hot P.S. 163 auditorium to discuss the proposal, as state officials listened to a long line of JHL detractors. Only a handful of people spoke in favor of the development, as opponents grumbled loudly.
Bruce Nathanson, JHL senior vice president, said that the development would be an upgrade over JHL's "outdated" 106th Street facility.
Nathanson said the project would be the first "Green House Model" nursing home—a progressive model intended to give nursing home residents more autonomy—in a major metropolitan area.
"This model is all about nurturing elders" and providing quality care, Nathanson said
"The building will also be a gracious and welcoming place for residents, families, volunteers and the community," Nathanson said, adding that it would include a garden for community use and a rooftop garden for residents.
But most attendees—including parents of P.S. 163 students, residents of nearby apartment buildings, and several elected officials—raised concerns about the project's potential to increase noise and traffic levels, encroach upon open space, and disturb P.S. 163 students and staff.
Democratic District Leader Mark Levine, who won the Democratic primary to represent the area in the City Council last week, and City Council member Melissa Mark-Viverito, who currently represents the area, presented a joint testimony. They highlighted the proposed project's proximity to P.S. 163, the business of traffic on the corridor, and the potentially toxic levels of lead in the parking lot.
"We simply cannot even entertain the idea of the project moving forward if there are any potential negative impacts on the health of the children of P.S. 163 or the residents of Park West Village," Levine said, adding that the site is "one of the last vestiges of open space within the Park West Village community."
Mark-Viverito called for an EIS that is comprehensive and "truly takes into account the voice of the community."
State Assembly member Daniel O'Donnell, who represents the area, said he has serious concerns that he expects the EIS to address.
"This proposal has potential to inflict serious harm on our community," O'Donnell said to loud applause, adding that the project's consequences "threaten to damage our community for years to come."
City Council member Gale Brewer, the Democratic nominee for Manhattan Borough President, said she hopes the building isn't built.
"These impacts will be very detrimental," Brewer said, adding that the Department of Health should "reinvestigate" the project's consequences.
Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer, the Democratic nominee for city Comptroller, also called for a more comprehensive consultation, and members of Community Board 7 called for a more rigorous environmental assessment.
P.S. 163 parents, several of whom testified at the meeting, raised concerns about the potential health effects of lead toxins and the distractions of dust and noise.
"What permanent damage will we do physically, emotionally, cognitively and functionally?" asked Avery Brandon, whose daughter is zoned to attend the school.
CB7 member Madelyn Innocent said she knew people who had been affected by lead poisoning, and that the project could "stifle the dreams and hopes" of kids and parents.
Not all of the concerns were quite as serious. Reverend Heidi Neumark, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church on 100th Street near Amsterdam Avenue, said the proposed building would cast shadows on the "rare enamel and stained glass" windows in the Gothic Revival church.
Despite the litany of objections, JHL officials have maintained that they will resolve all environmental concerns that the study reveals, and it's not certain that the review could derail the project.
CB7 chair Mark Diller said that despite an "initial bit of community restiveness," he was proud that both sides listened to one another and hopes for a complete Environmental Impact Statement.
"I think it was a good turnout," Brandon said. "I just hope they listen."
The public will have until Oct. 4 to submit testimony, which the DOH will take into account when determining the scope of the Environmental Impact Statement.
97th Street is a major westbound Manhattan cross street through Central Park providing access from the East Side to the Henry Hudson Parkway. Traffic on West 97th Street often backs up, sometimes all the way through Central Park and beyond into the East side, especially during the afternoon rush hour. At these times it is not possible for Emergency vehicles to move on West 97th street. Besides blocking Emergency vehicle access to a nursing home, the additional traffic burden engendered by such a facility at this location would exacerbate the already barely moving crosstown rush hour traffic in this part of Manhattan.
Thanks for covering this vital hearing where powerful citizen testimony helped educate the Health Dept. representatives as to the stakes. JHL officials spoke, somewhat piously, of the years they have worked on this project, but ignored the concessions made to them years ago to renovate on 106th Street. They changed to 100th Street, and then finally tried to shoehorn their supposed "Green" building onto 97th Street. I urge you: Please continue to follow this story, especially against the backdrop of "infills" at housing projects.
My grandchildren attended PS 163. The open area next to the school was used for dismissal and was later used to run, play ball, and just sit and talk. Basketball was played and we sat with other parents just talking. Should the JHA buidling be approved, children would not be able to play, the noise would be deafening, students would not be able to study, to hear lesson assignments and the environment would be compromised through the digging up areas which are filled with asbestos and other carcinogents. I would never enrol any child to this school, nor would I live near this upheaval. Do the right thing and decline the use of this monstrous building which would not benefit its patience. If there was a power outage, how would they be able to evacuate people in wheelchairs, walkers, etc. JHA should stay at their existing 106 St. facility which has the benefit of a beautiful garden which extends to 105 Street.
The quality of life in the Park West Village has already been severely damaged by excessive construction. At one point I counted 11 cranes in my neighborhood, a buzz saw switched ON was left laying on an open driveway in a parking lot, and an entire 'holding wall' completely collapsed from the foundation of 372 Columbus Ave.
The noise pollution in this neighborhood is sickening. Two blocks of W100 St houses a fire dept, police dept, library, 2 private schools, and several early childhood facilities, not to mention two dozen retail businesses. The noise generated by huge truck deliveries, garbage pick-ups in the middle of the night, sirens from 2 medical clinics, fire house, police dept, along with unbearable traffic jams' honking and screaming, is nauseating.
Even with the windows tightly closed, a normal conversation is impossible in my own apartment. How is a teacher expected to communicate with students in this environment? Ambulences will constantly scream around the senior facility.
Asbestos, lead, medical wastes from the 'home' are givens. This was an unconscionable action from its genesis. It was a total 'BATE and SWITCH' in connection to the original W106th building, where the building actually belongs and was proposed . An expensive, high rental was actually planned by owners and city building agency. They were totally misleading the voters. All these newly-nominated politicians were present at several meetings I attended. They have done NOTHING, thus far to dissuade criminal contractors.
I suggest that the people who oppose this project take steps now to gather baseline information about traffic flow, congestion, noise, shadows and any other areas that they think will be negatively impacted by this project. In the end, if they are not able to halt this project, they should extract promises from JHL, and then if they feel that JHL is not living up to those promises, they will have the baseline information to prove their case and get redress.
I am totally opposed to the 26-story development. I have been a resident of PWV for 25 years. Since the advent of all the construction over the past several years, I have to dust my furniture every day as the thick dust that will accumulate is unbelievable. If it is accumulating on my furniture, it is accumulating in our lungs. Also, my son, 15, has developed a chronic cough since the mass area construction. Last, but certainly not least, this nursing home/hospital would cause many problems, i.e., additional crowding, pollution of all types, unsafe environment for our children, toxic waste, to name a few.
There is no compelling reason for this facility to be buildt at 97th street becasue the Home has ample space on 106th street to build a facility of the size they propose on 97th street. Why cant they consolidate the inhabitants at 106th and build there.
As for 97th street there is the lead issue,the traffic issue,the noise issue the light issue and the fact that a very tall institution is not a favorable place for seniors who might want to go outside.
The neighborhood has changed signficantly since the inception of this proposed building. All environmental concerns aside (which are alarming) we cannot handle any more congestion. I, along with thousands of my neighbors, cannot think of a single reason that this should be built. This is not a case of NIMBY, the case against this is thorough and well documented. As a community we are overwhelmingly against it.
It is absolutely the worst kind of irresponsibility to proceed with a project when there is any..I repeat any...risk to our children's health never mind that of the adults in the neighborhood. If there is the LEAST possible risk of exposure to lead, this project should be cancelled.

I have never been more pleased with a salon! To the talent, the friendliness and professionalism.The hours are good and I've never had a problem getting an appointment on short notice. I have recommended this salon to all my friends and they have all had similarly wonderful experiences. Thank you Jack Alexander Salon!...
Nikki is really just amazing. I've been with her for a year now and my hair just looks so much better--smoother and healthier. I have medium to light brown hair, but I always do blonde highlights, and that definitely does damage to your hair. Nikki has been very good at working with me to help my hair recover from the damage that has built up over time, while still keeping me blonde. She is a bit of a perfectionist, which is a great trait in a stylist. She's also extremely interesting to talk to, and very efficient. I highly, highly recommend you try her out. I would definitely recommend Jack Alexander Salon & Spa to everybody!!!!
If you want an amazing cut, with fantastic service, and intelligent conversation AT an affordable price: ask for Diana at Jack Alexander Salon & Spa. I met Diana when I came into the salon wanting to get my bangs trimmed. When you have bangs in the front, it's a scary thing to have them trimmed by an unfamiliar stylist. I thought. Diana not only did an amazing job of giving me exactly what I wanted, but she was also kind enough to provide me with some samples of the amazing product line called "Moroccan Oil." Of course I would be coming back to Diana when I needed an actual hair cut. She gave me one of the best haircuts I've ever gotten. I have VERY thick black, South-Asian hair, and a lot of stylists are intimidated by it. Not Diana! She has such attention to detail and really knows her stuff. I can't recommend her enough! If you're like me and new to the area or just looking for an amazing stylist, go see Diana at Jack Alexander Salon & Spa!
I went to Jack Alexander Salon & Spa again and I had the previlage to get my hair done by Magda! I have such curly hair and it can be a pain to maintain. So, after having a session with her I almost didn't recognize myself in the mirror. My hair looked so beautiful! Not to mention, she was kind enough to give me a few tips on how to manage my hair which was very helpful :) Thank you so much, Magda! I can't wait for my next appointment!
Jack Alexander Salon & Spa is Fantastic!!! I went in last week expecting to get the same look I've always gotten when other people have done my hair. I've explained to several hairstylists in the past how to cut and color my hair, and they could never get it just right...until the specialists at Jack Alexander Salon & Spa did my hair. Nikki made it look exactly how I've always wanted it! Thanks Nikki!
I have been searching for a good hair stylist for the past 4-5 years and I finally found one at the Jack Alexander Salon. First it was so incredibly easy to get an appointment especially since I kind of left it to last minute, but I needed to get my hair done for my birthday on Friday.
My experience at this Salon was incredible! It has such a positive and welcoming vibe. Most importantly, Diana did a fantastic job with my hair, giving me a haircut way better than what I originally envisioned! She is also very funnnnny! Additionally, Jack the owner came over and introduced himself and he was very kind, and polite. I really appreciate being valued as a client, and that gesture really stood out to me. I am so pleased, and I'm totally looking forward to my next visit.
Bottom line..i found my new stylist!! Thanks Diana!!!!
I have been trying to find a stylist that does GREAT short styles and have been unsuccessful until now. I came to Nikki and she hooked my short style up. I mean she cut my hair to perfection and the style is simply marvelous!!!! I left her chair very satisfied. If you have short hair and your looking for a stylist please contact Nikki at Jack Alexander Salon & Spa
I have gotten my hair cut by Diana Fink many times and I have to say these are the best haircuts I have gotten in my life, hands down.
Diana's haircuts are meticulous, and she really listens to what I want, and gives me exactly the cut I'm looking for. I can't recommend her highly enough!
I love this place. Definitely make an appointment with Magda for hair and with Renata for facial. Great place for kids , while I had my hair done my kids were watching Disney movies !!

2700 Metairie Road Metairie, LA 70001
very community has a street that functions as the main artery of its population. 5th Avenue in New York, Michigan Avenue in Chicago, and Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington D.C., come to mind, as does the Champs-…lysťes, abroad.
In New Orleans proper, St. Charles Avenue connects uptown with downtown and plays host to the towering oaks, sprawling mansions and glittering Mardi Gras festivities for which New Orleans is known. In neighboring Metairie, home to Ralph Brennan's cafť b, the oft-traveled Metairie Road's vibrant cluster of locally-owned businesses, mix of modest and ritzy residences, and family focused amenities merits its inclusion among such iconic streets that are the lifeblood of their community.
Located at 2700 Metairie Road, cafť b is a casual eatery offering locally influenced "Elevated Neighborhood" cuisine, custom built for Metairie's multi-generational clientele. Designed for a discerning, family, and food-focused audience, cafť b promises informally chic dťcor alongside comfort-driven food, service, and hospitality. Its brief, confident, and straight forward menus offer refined American comfort food at reasonable prices.
Dinner: Monday - Thursday 5 PM - 9 PM, Friday & Saturday 5 PM - 10 PM
Lunch: Monday - Friday 11:30 AM - 2 PM

Nursing models, theories and philosophic frameworks have been emerging for over 50 years. But they have not always been welcomed as relevant to nursing practice. Part of the disconnect lies in what "theory" is thought to be. My own favorite definition of "theory" is "a vision - a mental construction of what could be in human experience. In nursing, these mental constructions provide a roadmap, a path to follow in shaping human experience toward wholeness and well-being. This issue of ANS includes current thinking in nursing that clarifies how and why nursing theories are essential to nursing practice, and articles that illustrate current theoretical developments in nursing. Most important I believe this issue of ANS points in the direction of meaningful connections between theory, research and practice.

Luke OKAY impressed Wilson's team with his cartoon depiction of a skeleton beach party.
Crowned with the winning design of Julian Wilson's Signature Master Tracks,Surfer, skater and talented artist from Australia - we picked his brain on what inspires him, his process and more. Read on:
What environment do you work best in?
My home studio is my favorite work environment. There's no one around which sets a better mood for getting creative. I have a big wooden desk I built myself from recycled timber and on the desk sits a row of inspirational books, magazines and an encyclopedia on birds. A few skulls, Spongebob Squarepants and designer toys live on the desk with boxes and jars housing pens, paints, brushes, pencils and other tools.
What inspires you to create art the way you do?
My friends in the art game inspire me on a daily basis and are constantly pushing me to be better. I'd say the punk music I've grown up listening to has helped shaped a certain part of my style and helps me express certain messages through my art.
Every artist has his or her own creative process - what's unique about yours?
I wouldn't say there's anything too unique about my creative process, when I want to get creative I like having isolation so I'm not distracted or feeling any kind of pressure.
I like comfort so I can explore my soul and put pen to paper or brush to canvas, and let it all out. Music is always on, it always helps me get in the right frame of mind, which usually takes a lot of coffee and procrastinating or "getting inspired" before I get rolling.
Who are some artists that have inspired you and have influenced your style?
In primary school it was Van Gough and Picasso, then guys like Ozzie Wright came out with punky surf art which kinda took my art style away from those older classical roots. Now it's the revolution of street art that is taking over the world. It's hard to not be influenced by the here and now and what's blowing up around you.
My best friend Trait is probably my biggest motivator and influencer, it's always awesome when someone you look up to is also a mentor and a soundboard for progression.
What led you to become an artist?
I really don't know, I've always painted and drawn since I was really young. No one in my family did art but I guess I just had something inside me that needed to get out. The progression of being an artist and making it my profession is something that just happened.
Your art is colorful and has a lot of personality. If your art could speak, what would it say?
I feel my ART does speak. There are messages in most of the things I create, it's not even that subtle, in fact I like having it more in your face. If I can make the audience think and question topics then I'm happy. I don't really care if they buy the piece or not.
DESIGN on the other hand is different, design is about making people happy, the trick is to sneak messages into designs so you can subliminally influence people haha.
If your life were a music video, what songs would you play throughout the day?
If my life were some sort of music video I'd be like a male Mary Poppins and fly in on an umbrella, no screw the umbrella... on the back of a flying tiger in a haze of punk and hardcore. The video would mellow out with electro, and build back up with hip hop. I'm out again on that flying tiger of punk and hardcore.
It'd be hard to single out individual songs but it'd be a blur of Rise Against, Gaslight Anthem, Architects, Brand New, Refused, M83, Naked and Famous, Flume, Run the Jewels, Mos Def, Shabazz Palaces, Radiohead, and Alexisonfire. Something along those blurry blurry lines.
You also tend to create really captivating monochrome pieces, how do you decide whether or not to work in black and white or in color?
I don't really have to decide... (I don't think). Some idea's will just suit one style or the other and it naturally progresses as an image in my head and I'll know straight up how to execute what I'm thinking.
What do you do when you're not creating art?
Most of the time it's just the usual day to day stuff. Try and have fun, share some laughs with my lovely girlfriend, go surfing, hang with friends, grocery shopping, cook dinner or be immature in interviews.
What's your Soundtrack of Life?
The album 'The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me' by Brand New would be the soundtrack of my life. I don't know why but I just seem to have an affinity with this band. Their music and their lyrics are just so damn genius it is something I constantly connect with. Even though it's a pretty melancholic album it's something that totally makes me happy and I have a lot of awesome memories that have happened with this album as the soundtrack already. So it makes sense to me.
What's one thing you want people to know about you?
I like ice cream?

Every piece of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is an adventure that you and your friends reminisce about year after year.
We are here to prep you with a playlist for this year's journey to Indio, and share some of our own memories from Coachella's past.
SOL REPUBLIC's creative director Owen went to the festival back in 2004 when he passed out from exhaustion and the 100°+ weather in the small Beck tent. He warmly recalls when Broken Social Scene's guitarist proposed to his girlfriend onstage. In 2005, our marketing manager Stephanie danced wildly to Perry Farrell (who was spinning a cool set in the dark), and watched the Chemical Brothers standing next to the lead singer of Keane. Product design intern John remembers seeing Deadmau5 perform inside his new tilted cube in 2010, and in 2011 watching Death From Above 1979 on the main stage, where everyone was tapping into the roughhouse music. Social media specialist Chelsea discovered Azealia Banks in 2012 and was impressed by her voice and dance moves, as well as her pasties.
Now you can listen to a curated selection of songs from the special artists who have played Coachella over the past 16 years. The playlist was put together just for your road trip - so tune in as you head to Indio, CA in style.
Running, as voluntary activities go, can be undesirable unless you're being chased by a bear and/or an angry Chris Brown. Exercising is hard enough, let alone when you're approaching mile 3 and one of your earbuds keeps popping from the confines of your ear canal.
At that point, you have two options: continue running while futilely attempting to reposition the earbud (making you look like the world's dorkiest Secret Service agent with one finger pressed to your ear); or stop running, which, though it may be all your body could ever want at that moment, is regarded as "sub-optimal."
RELAYS solves this problem through a novel concept: "an in-ear headphone designed to actually fit inside a human's ear." Seriously. Through a dynamic series of "a-ha!" moments, the design engineers at SOL REPUBLIC developed the patent-pending FreeFlex Technology that gives RELAYS a comfortable, adaptable fit that stays put and won't fall out.
Previously, the only solution was to order custom headphones through a home-fitting kit, which besides being an eminently screw-up-able process, costs a ton of money. If you have that kind of "f-you" money, it might be better spent on something more productive (like paying Chris Brown to flagellate you).
RELAYS, on the other hand, cost less than $80. You just can't get this many good feelings in your ears for $80 anywhere else (outside of maybe a VERY specific fetish club).
Once your RELAYS are (firmly) in place, the good times keep rolling. The i5 sound engines provide a shockingly rich, nuanced listening experience for such a tiny package. RELAYS are also sweat and water resistant, which you might recognize as a good feature for sweaty activities like sports and workouts. Available in black, white, horizon blue and lemon lime, RELAYS are stylish enough to keep up, no matter where the day takes you (or whoever you are running from).
At $80 for headphones that sound great, look amazing, AND stay-put, the only thing you have to lose is your sanity -- which will only happen if you continue to toil with uncomfortable, out-of-date earbuds.

Welcome home!
My name is Matthew McKay and I am the Minister of Beaches Presbyterian Church.
I am here for the same reason you are, perhaps. I was looking for a different kind of
church and a different kind of church experience.

thinking group of progressive Christian people. Now I am a part of the community too,

welcomed. Beaches has been described as "the thinking church with the generous
heart." That is exactly what I have found and I invite you to come and find it too.

empower our prayer. At Beaches, you will find a place where we honour and celebrate
our differences. Most of all, though, I hope you will find a place to belong and a place
where you may join in Christ's ministry of reconciling love in the deep places of our

Yet another report predicting Google is about to release its own phone raises more questions than it answers about Google's mobile strategy.
Rafe and Molly argue the Gphone. Also Foleo.
Is Google really working on its own operating system for mobile phones? It seems we're likely to find out one way or another fairly soon.
Robert X. Cringley wrote that two gPhones may be on the way to U.S. shores by the end of the year. But according to Don Reisinger, we should wait and see what happens before we call off the dogs.
If Google decides to break out of its shell and release a new cell phone that some are calling the "iPhone Killer," it will be a huge mistake.
Google is finally coming clean on open source in the mobile world.
Can it be that Google really is outsmarting the cell phone industry? Don Reisinger certainly believes so. And within five years, Don thinks Google will revolutionize the entire industry.
The tech world is abuzz again with the rumor that Google is working on its own Android-based phone. Could the Gphone actually be? We discuss this and more on this week's Dialed In podcast.
The open-source software specialist releases previously proprietary phone software components under the GPL and ports Qtopia to FIC's Neo1973 phone.
Google, it is rumored, may produce their own phone to follow the iPhone.

La Miniatura
To say that La Miniatura founder Jeffrey Sebelia has lived a full life would be like saying that La Miniatura's impeccably tailored, super-chic boys' clothes are "sort of stylish, I suppose." In the 1990s, Sebelia belonged to the rock band Lifter, which scored a minor hit on the music charts. In the mid-aughts, he won Project Runway's third season and started his adult-size fashion label Cosa Nostra, which has outfitted household names such as Madonna and Gwen Stefani. In 2011 Sebelia teamed up with Melissa Bochco and founded La Miniatura, which strives to "dress your kid with dignity" by offering up ultra-classy kids' clothing. La Miniatura's perfectly cut velvet suits and plaid chambray blazers, sharp skinny jeans, colorful pants and button-down shirts, and sleek trench coats are inspired by the post-punk era (arguably one of the most stylish periods for men in modern history) but updated and miniaturized for fashion-forward little guys ages two to 14 years. The only drawback to La Miniatura's stylish line is that it might make dads jealous.

Michigan lottery is launching online sales despite denied funding from Legislature
A move by the Michigan Lottery has caught retailers by surprise, a big surprise.
Earlier this year, the State Legislature said no to a budget request from the Michigan Lottery for money to launch online and smart phone lottery sales. Store owners who sell lottery tickets thought that was the end of that.
Turns out, they were wrong.
Chris Gautz has been following this story for Crain's Detroit Business, and he joined us today.

I really felt at home and important at Fox. At other schools, I often felt like just another number. But at Fox, they made a point to know me by name.
The educational buildings are great. They are in good shape and clean and updated. The library is a great place to study, but sometimes its hard to find open spots to study. Wifi is also best in the library. The athletic center is fairly decent, but has weird hours and is often filled with athletes, leaving little room or access for regular students.
Guys & Girls:
Just like anywhere there are attractive guys and not so attractive guys. But relationships are a big deal, so often time there are people who you will like more than others.
For my program, you don't apply to be admitted to the School of Education until your sophomore year. I have not yet applied, but the most important criteria is probably good grades and passing state tests.
I have a passion for working with children, and dream of becoming a teacher, so therefore it is worth it to push through the difficulties of the program. The main problem with Elementary Education is the course load. If you declare El Ed, forget taking any sort of fun electives. There is barely enough room to fit in all of your general education courses.
Campus Housing:
Living on campus has been one of the best parts of my experience. My dorm has a very close knit community and that makes all the difference. I live in Coffin Hall, which is on the far side of the canyon, but the walk is so worth it! In my opinion the worst dorm is Edwards. Although it is close to everything, it is old and run down and very cramped.
The Elementary Education program has just been revised. Unfortunately, it is much different than the original program. The faculty decided it would be best to remove all child psych/development, adolescent psych/development, and other similar courses to make room for 20 or 30 extra "math and science teaching methods" and "cultural studies". I understand that these areas are important too, but as teachers, I feel that the child courses are extremely valuable. Despite these frustrations, the profs in the department are fantastic and genuinely care about each one of their students.
I have not had an internship opportunity at George Fox.
Overall Experience:
The school is crazy enough for me when I need it, but private enough so I can have my alone time. If I could do it all over, I would still choose my school because the environment is so positive and uplifting.
Greek Life:
There's no Greek distinction among the student body. The housings are better for students with higher credits, but that's about it.
The internship opportunities are opened statewide. The time commitment varied with each jobs, and so do the responsibilities. The pay is totally worth it, varies between $10 to $25 per hour.
The programs are really hard. The acceptance rate is lower than other surrounding universities. However, the facilities are extremely high quality, and the opportunities are plentiful.
Overall Experience:
Great faculty and program structure
Process needs to be better communicated, but staff are extremely helpful
Very diverse / liberal for a Christian school
Could be more streamlined - improve communication on process.
Great faculty and program options.
Off-Campus Housing:
Online Student living in another state
I love my major for what it is but I'm still new to it so there's not much I can say about it. The workload is okay for the most part, mostly essays, and the facilities are good. I don't know about the internship or job opportunities yet, but I know they're there.
Off-Campus Dining:
It's alright for the most part. I don't eat out often so I don't know too much if there are student discounts and all that. The price is good and while there is some diversity, there isn't as much as I'm used to. I prefer eating home-cooked meals, but the Chinese food is good.
Drug Safety:
There are very few cases where I saw drinking and drugs happening on campus, but it isn't explicit. There is little to no peer pressure and the school does a good job of keeping students in check.
Campus Strictness:
It's pretty strict. I mean, we had to sign a lifestyle agreement first thing, and while a good majority of the students respect it, there are some exception cases. I'm not against alcohol and the like, but I do like how it's a drug-free, alcohol-free school because I feel that would have been disruptive in an academic setting.
I'm sick of the rain, but the rare sunny days are one of the best.
Campus Housing:
The dorm options are okay. The worst option to live in as a freshman would be Hobson as it is a bit estranged from the other dorms and is far from the campus. Social atmosphere is good, but it still requires actually going out and making the effort. Cost isn't the greatest, which is why I'm living off-campus this year. Housing process is largely okay.
Greek Life:
There is no Greek life.

It has been revealed that some United fans have been able to purchase tickets equivalent to those on offer to away supporters £5 cheaper.
As is common practice for Cup games, the clubs had agreed a standard price for home and away fans, in this case £45. But United members have been able to buy them at a discounted rate of £40.
United claim this is an offer available only to members under a long-standing scheme - one that was also operated for the third-round replay against West Ham last week - but Fulham claim they were not informed of the discount.
A United spokesman said: "Fulham fans are paying the same as United fans who are not members. A discount scheme has existed for members for around 20 years. We're surprised it has come as a surprise to them."
Fulham made their complaint public via their official Twitter account.
"Fulham Football Club has contacted The FA to complain about Man United discounting FA Cup match tickets for their fans," read the tweet.
The FA has received the complaint and is understood to have written to United for a formal explanation.

Hey all the holiday season is upon us and my kids can not wait for Christmas. The older they get the more they are into it, so this year they are pumped. Having my kids be so into Christmas brings back the excitement of it all. Plus its good to threaten them with haha. "you better be good cause Santa is watching". You can use that the whole month of December. Christmas aside the Winter stinks lol well maybe not that bad but I am more of a summer guy. I guess you can say the Winter makes you appreciate the summer. I just feel everything in the Winter takes more of a process like putting on more clothes, de icing your car, warming it up........... in the summer its shorts, some flip flops and im gone. But then again i like to say the bitter cold winters make you tougher, i can live with tougher :) Well stay warm have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Look Out for TUF 19
Merry Christmas
