As I walked along the paths, I began to take note of the rides around me. “Oh, look at that one!” I exclaimed as I passed a space-ship looking coaster. I continued…

am interested in factors like location and school size. In this essay, I will examine three schools: University of South Florida (USF), University of Central Florida (UCF), and SUNY at Stony Brook University—SUNY.

I got off the car as fast as possible and headed for the door to find a cloud of smoke hitting me across the face. My dog,…
