When we first arrived in both states we went to Crispy Cream and got donuts. Which is the best donut shop ever in my opinion. I’ve learned accouple lessons my first time in both states.…

I was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, and my family moved to Zanesville, Ohio when I was about nine months old. That move was hardly a tragic experience for me seeing as I don’t remember it, so I don’t think it really counts. I lived in Zanesville until I was almost nine years old. This was the only place I had ever known…

Mary’s in Akron, Ohio and while it is true that a large percentage of the students have a Catholic background, the social, cultural and economic backgrounds are very diverse. In fact, for the past three years STVM has partnered with the government of China and hosts over 20 Chinese exchange students! STVM has taught me that different perspectives, ideas, and experiences make us all richer. I hope to continue this immersion in diversity as a one of over 60,000 students at the Ohio State…

No one knows why or how humans and other animals sleep, but it is certain that the type of sleep influences quality, quantity, and the effectiveness of wakeful mental and physical activities (Thompson 1).

a household name in both acting and business. I am here to tell you about his early life, his acting career, and the race car driver whom he lived to be.

The French and Indian War was a conflict between Britain and France due to contested land claims over the Ohio River Valley, which eventually lead to Britain's declaration of war in 1756. At the beginning of the war, the British suffered major losses. Though in 1758, the tables turned with the arrival of William Pitt, who led the British to victory. Once several forts surrounding the Ohio River Valley were built by the French, the British retaliated, hoping to expel the French from the area.…

different costs, activities, locations, and offerings. After thinking about both colleges, I plan to attend Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. Both colleges have a different cost to get in. Wright State and UC both have different costs in their college. Wright State is on average for an Ohio student $19, 434 while UC is on average $16,000 for an Ohio student. Clearly there is a difference in costs in those two colleges but it isn’t a whole lot. If I were an out of state student, I would…
