Indiana University Southeast

to become sophomores. To increase this number one of the thing the school can do is expand the career development center. Other schools offer more scholarships. This is due to them having bigger sports programs. IUS should start to offer more scholarships. Not just for athletes but for everyone. IUS cannot compete with neighboring UofL when it comes to sports because they are a lot bigger and are in a more competitive conference. Since they cannot compete in sports with UofL, IUS should focus on the things it can compete with. If IUS offered more studying programs, that could possibly lead to some students staying. Just this semester the school of business will be adding three new members to its staff to accommodate for new classes. The university just recently added a new concentration to the business school. If IUS could start adding more concentrations to its other schools, they could start to retain more students. IUS has also just opened a new winter session. This is a great step in the right direction. With a new winter session, they will only set themselves apart from its competitors even more. Just this week IUS made a transfer agreement with Jefferson Community and Technical College to make it easier for JCTC’s students to transfer to IUS. With this agreement JCTC students will be able to transfer to IUS seamlessly to pursue their bachelor degree. Another great move in the right direction. IUS should pursue transfer agreements with other small schools. The could…

career. And finally the proximity to home, and what is around the town. I have narrowed my school choices to three. The first is Manchester University, a liberal arts school in North Manchester, Indiana. My second choice for college is Indiana University-Bloomington a public university in, guess what town, Bloomington, Indiana. A third option for my next step in education is Anderson University a liberal arts institution in Anderson, Indiana. It may seem like there is not much of a difference…

I want to talk about the electrical locked doors and how everything can be control in the control room. So first I will be telling you how I feel about these two jails and how they…

Indianapolis, Indiana, Is a beautiful city. It is home to numerous war memorials, second only to Washington, DC. However, it is a long way from my home town in Louisiana and not only in distance. I relocated to Indiana temporarily for a job almost a year ago, before the job was completed I was asked to take a permanent position. So my new ‘home’ town is now Indianapolis. I decided to embrace this with this essay, so I began to look for a site-specific public sculptor that has meaning to…

In Alvin Mitchel’s research “Determinants of Safety in Urban and Suburban Areas”, it was found that one’s perception of safety outweighs the reality. This is because crime is emotional and often time’s emotion outweighs other aspects (Mitchel 2004, pg 98-111). Because of this perception of crime, one does not often put his or herself in a position where he or she would be affected by crime. Hamilton County, Indiana in 2010 has a crime rate of 48.15 while Marion County in 2010 has a crime rate…
