On Campus: Academic Side

Hey! Stay tuned for stories and pictures from:
Halloween, Family Hayride, Education Nights Out, and New York City!


For now though, I have some time to finally post pictures of my college campus.
These are some looks into the things I see each and every day.

[Black and white of a chalk message on the walkway]
This campus has a very open and friendly feel. This really can become your home away from home for most on campus. That's how I and several of my friends feel. We'll all be sad in some way to graduate and leave this place behind.

.

[University Hall and Gray Chapel]
This is the building our campus is most known for. It's on one of our logos, brochures, etc.
It's an old creeky, but beautiful building. I'll have to get some inside shots of these places for you readers to see. University is home to the Foreign Language Department.

[Elliot Hall]
The oldest building on campus. This used to be a hotel for those traveling to the sulfur springs of Delaware (one of the reasons Ohio Wesleyan was founded were these very springs, one of which still remains as a memorial behind Phillips Hall). This building as actually moved from it's original site at one time. It is now the History Department's home.

[Sturges Hall]

This is the Humanities and English department home.
It was built as a replica of Elliot, in case in the move Elliot could not be rebuilt.


[Slocum Hall]
Home of the admissions office. And the old sight of the campus library.

[Merrick Hall]
This building is currently under renovation and not in use. However, I heard rumors that it used to be the old honors dorm building, among other things.

[Phillips Hall]
Ground floor: Psychology
First floor: Journalism and Religion
Second floor: Education! (my department)
This is also where I work during the school year, on the second floor in the Curriculum Recourse Center (CRC) or Education Library.

[CWCS...yeah, the Science Center]
I don't know how to spell the official name, but this is the science center, home of Biology, Botany, Chemistry, Computer Science, Geology, Geography, Math, and Physics and Astronomy.


[Edwards Gym]
This is where I learned to Scuba Dive! And play racket ball, and danced Ball Room and Swing (in the racket ball courts).

I will give you more of a tour of campus later. These are the main buildings on the academic side of campus, but there are several other pieces of campus yet to see.

PS. SO this post took longer to put together than I thought. Ah well. NYC and other stories will have to wait a bit more until I have the time to thoughtfully blog about them. What is taking up so much of my time you ask? WHy, a documentary! I'm taking an ethnographic documentary film class, and my final project is a film on the local theater, The Strand. Stay tuned to hear more about that as well. Making a film so soooooo time consuming!
