The construction taking place is for the Center for Communications and Information Technology, a building that will be simply known as the CCIT building.

  • Boston Rises Through Baseball

     

    Oh what a difference a year makes, the worst have somehow put together a spectacular April after a disappointing season that resulted in a last place finish in 2012. The Boston Red Sox as of May 3rd, 2013 held a 20-8 record and stand 2.5 games in first place above the New York Yankees. It is a completely different look for the team compared to their 11-13 record the same day last year. The major improvement that the team has gone through is a blessing for the city of Boston which is still going through a period of grief after the bombings that occurred during the Boston Marathon. The city is still trying to rebuild, but the success of the Boston Red Sox is, along with other things, keeping the city in positive spirits.

Long story short, before my arrival in Australia, my mother told me to hide behind a tree if I saw an emu. Like every child, I didn’t listen. Full story

Farewell to the College Experience

At the very first tour of a college campus, I think the tour guide should add a disclaimer. He or she should look those little high school seniors in the eye and say, “This is not going to be like the movies at all.” The movies lied. Every classic college film is the same bundle of clichés. It is a pretty cookie cutter experience on the silver screen. Most significantly, the movies leave out the important lessons. Full story
