For students who chose to keep their car at home, they may be unable to shuttle siblings to and from school in the mornings, and throw off their weekly schedule. Students who choose to park off campus face a long walk to school and must budget more time in the mornings and find an acceptable spot to park on 9th street. Many people continue to park on campus, because the supervisors will often not notice. But, those who continue to park on campus face the daily anxiety that they will be suspended from the campus for even longer because of violating their ban from the lot. Often they are not caught, because the enforcers of the bans do not mind cars unless they are breaking rules or don’t have their tag.
However, it is not a normal school day but Saturday detention. Most of five students come to school with their parents. Unlike the other four students, Bender walks to school alone and careless about whatever happens in front of him. He doesn’t care to avoid the car driven by Alison’s parent coming. Brian Johnson, is as normal as every students are, is dropped off by his mother and his little sister.
High volumes of enrollment poses parking issues By The increase in student enrollment over the past two academic years has lead to major overcrowding issues of parking availability. This issue is being felt through the majority of the student body attending during day-time hours. On a typical day at FVCC parking availability tends to be at its worst from 11 am to 1 pm when the highest volume of students are on campus. FVCC has six parking lots available for students, but still students are finding that they have to park on the grass and not a designated parking space. Courtesy notes have been issued to students that have not parked in a designated parking space.
The lack of man power makes gang members and drug dealers more likely to sell drugs and carry weapons and to use them in the open. There are also not enough responding officers to quickly arrive to calls for help or to make any arrests. A former police officer named Robert, one of the officers who was laid off, noticed his car missing from his driveway. He quickly phoned his former coworkers and sought immediate help. After reporting that his car was gone, he waited 15 minutes for a patrol car to arrive, worried that each passing second made it less likely the cops would catch the thief before a successful getaway.
Brent Loth Rhet 105 Primary Resource Homelessness Like many high school seniors, I toured colleges rigorously trying to evaluate which university I felt would be most comfortable and accommodating. However, when I ventured to VCU, in the city of Richmond, an unanticipated factor arose. Unfortunately, the public areas were densely occupied with panhandlers asking for donations. I was surprised again when visiting less urban schools (like UVA and NC State,) because I continued to notice poor vagrants on campus corners with signs and cups. Being a Champaign local, and knowing that our campus is located near the more poverty stricken area of Champaign, I was confused why homelessness seemed much less apparent on this particular campus.
That is why only Ikram has friends, because he was able to make two while attending school. Also they cannot go to a Hindu temple because the closest one to where they were living was two cities down, and time will not allow them to go. Their faith in their religion was strong but became stressful at the same time. As for employment, the father was no longer and accountant but a local taxi driver, until he found time and money to study the flied again in Canada. The mother picked up a job as well, noticing that the bills were much more expensive to pay This was also extremely stressful for the family because they were not getting to see each other as much as they have in the past.
I would have it set up so that after every ticket you get from the robot buggy picker upper you would get points and after ten points you would not be aloud to take a buggy from the store. Im not sure shy stores allow you to take the buggies out of the store now because after so much time they run out in the store so then someone has to quit what they are doing and pick up ever buggy in the parking lot and half the time they don't even get the buggies running stray they stay right where they are at so it still makes me mad. If you ever try to talk to someone and tell them that they buggies are going all over the place they just look at you like your crazy and wonder why you took the time out of there day and come to them with this problem. Sometimes i wonder if the stores do it just to see what people will do. I have seen some people run the carts over because they didn't want to move it.
First of all transportation is hard for me after starting college. I am hoping right now to get bless with a car because it’s hard to use the bus to school then to work and any other places I need to go. Now that most of my college work has to be done in school because a lack of materials it’s hard to take a hour bus ride whenever I need to finish work. The bus takes time out of my life and it cuts my time by a lot for me to go to work and all. It’ll be amazing to have a car to help me get places faster and so I can finish what I need to without rushing.
La’Shay Willis 1020 ENG Mohan 9/3/14 Non-Drivers Safety There is absolutely too much violence going on in Cleveland, it has got to stop. Every other morning I have to get ready for school. Unfortunately, I have to walk and don't have a cell phone. The walk from my house to school is a ten to fifteen minute walk. For a college student like me who’s trying to something with her life, should not be scared to walk to school.
I was used to live in a big house with open windows, and doors. And walk to the grocery store or ride a bus to go anywhere, but here in U.S you have to have car because places are far from one another, I need a car to go the grocery store, even to go to the church and if you want to ride the bus you have to wait at least an hour. And houses in U.S are very expensive so a foreign person like me has to live in a small apartment and that was the most difficult thing for me, get used to live in an apartment I could not open the windows nor the doors, for me living that way it was like living in a prison. After living ten years in U.S I have learned to overcome all the obstacles that at the beginning were difficult to overcome. I am now in college; I know how to communicate with American people in English.
