New Favorite Activity: Bowling
I am always looking for fun things to do, however, the other night I kind of ran out of ideas, so I wanted to try something new. My friend suggested bowling. I have been bowling maybe twice in my life, and so I really had no idea if I would like it or not. We went on a Friday night to go “Midnight Bowling.” They turn off all the normal lights and turn on black lights and play music videos throughout the place. It was so fun! Bowling is such a social sport. You can talk to people the entire time, yet you are still thoroughly entertained and you have an activity to occupy and break up any awkward time. Ever since that night, bowling has become a bi-weekly event with my friends.

Distance Learning Discussions
Distance learning has been gaining ground on traditional learning for quite some time now. Technology has allowed us to make huge leaps, and in a time when we need to look at every option to reduce costs, distance learning has been growing as well. However, in my opinion distance learning will never be a good as traditional learning. It is like the difference between talking to someone on the phone or talking to them in person. When you talk to them over the phone, you can her their voice, but you cannot tell what their body language is like. When you talk to someone face to face, it opens up a much deeper communication channel. The gap between a face to face conversation and a phone call is similar to the gap between distance learning and traditional learning.
Commuter Campuses
I attended a commuter campus when I went to college. If you don’t know, that is when the overwhelming majority of students do not live on campus and they simply show up for classes then go back home. It is hard to have a huge student life and campus life when your students are rarely on campus. If you are looking for that college campus feel that you see in all the movies, don’t attend a commuter campus. At my school it felt like I was going a business that happened to be teaching us. There are always exceptions and there are ways you can meet people and have a good time on campus, but in general, avoid schools where hardly any students live on campus.
