    Essay on St. Louis

    • 632 Words
    • 3 Pages

    One way for the administration of St. Louis to improve the students’ lives is through the creation of free, on campus parking. Early mornings are tough enough on students and finding a parking spot during early-morning-rush-hour shouldn’t be the hassle that it is. Currently, students who drive have four options; to park on campus and risk the parking ticket expense, or to park on the surrounding streets and move their car every two hours to avoid a parking ticket, or to pay to park in neighbouring streets’ parking garages, or to park in the neighbouring establishments’ lots, thus risking a parking ticket and enduring a long walk back to St. Louis. It can be determined that none of these four parking methods are cost or time efficient, because all four methods could leave you with a parking ticket or parking expense, and three of the four methods of parking require a ten to fifteen minute walk back to St. Louis campus. If the administration of St. Louis creates free, on campus parking, both students and faculty can enjoy less traffic congestion surrounding the school and a less stressful, costly, and time consuming decision of where to park.…

    College is a place where students go to get a degree in the field they want to fulfill their dreams. Since school is a positive environment students, shouldn’t get frustrated finding a parking space. Nevertheless, with new students attending college every year, we need to expand our parking area and add more lighting for the students and for the faculty. The problem is that there is not adequate parking for everyone and students will speed through the parking lot, which causes accidents. According to Andra Cantrell, vice president financial and administrative affairs of Weatherford College, “Weatherford has been cited as the fastest-growing community college in the state. […] The college…

    The majority opinion claimed that the principal did the right thing in removing the pages before printing. It argued that it did not violate student’s rights, but on the other hand it protected the parents in the divorce article and the identities in the pregnancy article. By protecting the rights of others, he was also protecting the rights of those individual students mentioned in the articles and the school’s image. The minority opinion claims that the articles removed still represented individual student views. Those who argued the dissenting opinion justified it by expressing concern over what permitting censorship will do in the long run. For instance, if censorship was permitted in this case, it would set a precedent for general student censorship with…

    Chauffeur companies are a good option for children and families on the go. In the article called “Chauffeur Companies Cater to Children on the Go”, it states that both parents and kids are getting busier as the days go on. This easily opens up an opportunity for these ride-hailing services to help parents and children. This proves that it is now a lot harder for working parents to constantly be driving their kids from school to home and other places. Having these services such as HopSkipDrive and Uber gives unavailable parents flexibility and time if their kids are very active in after school activities. Therefore, having these companies that give children a ride, helps out employed parents and children that are occupied so that they are able…

    In this case, my opinion reflected the majority opinion that the censorship of the newspaper pages did not violate the student's rights under the first amendment. I tended to favor more of a loose interpretation, but I would form a moderate opinion on some of the questions. The first question to me I took a moderate position. Students and adults have the same rights, but because they are in school, they have these same rights but to a lesser extent. I had a looser interpretation when it was brought up that the school newspaper is not a forum for public discussion. If they are printing what they publish, it shouldn't be used as a forum for…

    Welcome to Mahar Regional High School, home of the Senators, where the football team is taken more seriously than preparing the students for the MCAS test. I can remember entering my freshman year and walking into my first class, English, where my teacher spent the first half hour of class talking about how great the picks were that the quarterback was throwing at practice. I loved the home town pride that my school held. There were multiple pep rallies and blue and red were worn daily. Everyone in town went to the games on Friday nights and homecoming was more important than Christmas. The only thing that my school lacked was actually preparing students for the next big step in their lives, college. The four years I spent at Mahar were some of the best years of my life and I did learn just about as much as any other kid at any other high school. The most important thing that I didn’t learn was what to expect at college and even more importantly, how to write a college essay. Essays were important in the English and writing classes, but I was told what to write and I mastered the art of putting on paper exactly what would impress my teacher to get an A. English at Mahar was really black and white. The teacher shared their opinion on what they were teaching and as I moved up to my senior year I began noticing that there wasn’t many options for students to discuss their opinions and say what they truly thought on what they were learning. It led to me realizing that as my peers and I moved up into college we wouldn’t really be prepared for discussion style classes and opinion based papers that we would have to write. I personally wasn’t prepared for sharing what I thought and I noticed that when I had to write my college entrance paper.…

    Although my drive to school takes only 10 minutes, I leave my house at 10:30 to be at my 11:30 class. At 10:40 I pull into the parking lot with what looks like one hundred other students. As I am wedged behind other anxious commuters I can only envision the convenience of another parking lot. Once in my classroom, I am late, thus frustrated - concentration in a three-hour class is going to be non-existent. Students at **** stress over finding a parking spot, although we should be more concerned with English papers, lab reports and math midterms. Discussions of the Greater Vancouver transit system, the stress, the cost, and inconvenience of parking, and fit solutions to the parking problem will explain how parking could be convenient, thus less stressful, for **** commuters if a multi-level parking garage were added.…
