In the hustle and bustle to reach class on a Monday morning, students may miss one of the most important features Cathy has to offer: the Nationality Rooms. Who better to speak to than the Director of the Nationality Rooms, E. Maxine Bruhns, to learn more about these national landmarks. I interviewed Bruhns on Tuesday

Analysis of the Painting Foremost, the humanity represented by Starry Night over the Rhone is much brighter, as evidenced not only by the brightness of the windows, but the depths at which they are reflected on the river. Furthermore, the darkness of the sky is brighter than in The Starry Night, which, in the latter painting, is a symbol for depression. In the distance, the lighter blue is seen by some critics as the first signs of morning. It is important to note that here the optimism comes from

The headquarters for the United States Department of Defense has twice the number of bathrooms needed for a building its size. Known more commonly as “the Pentagon” after its unique, five walled frame, the defense building was constructed during the early 1940’s in Virginia where a code of regulations dubbed the “Jim Crow laws” required people of color to use separate facilities from white citizens. The Jim Crow laws segregated schools, transportation and public places. Although they claimed to

convert to Catholicism, Merton accepted monastic vows from the Abbey of Gethsemani, a Trappist monastery in Kentucky, in 1941. Here, Merton continued his cycle of ascetic transformation, and even documents this process in his autobiography, The Seven Storey Mountain.

Through these practices, Merton realizes the true nature of his body as “the mirror

American Lit Born to a loving young couple, looking up at the doctor not knowing how the world works.

Before the spark of cars’ popularity, society was designed and built around one thing; humans and our desire to socialize. In the earliest days of cars, parking was not a huge deal seen as how most people could not afford such a luxury; soon however, came the large-scale production of cars at affordable prices and cars began to encroach upon society.

national identity and the way in which cultural diversities were being governed. National identity is a form of identification which begins with appreciating folk culture, cultural artefacts and the landscape around us. (Storey, 13) The notion of the national identity would be, as Storey mentions, the notion of “Britishness” (13).

The summer of 1871 was the time of the year in Chicago where it was very hot and dry making the wooden city vulnerable. Then one day, a fire broke out in Chicago which caused a lot of commotion and terror in the city and more.
