The first four days of my program in South Africa were spent on a game reserve. Observing zebras, wart hogs, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, springbok, buffaloes, and bulls in their natural habitat, I couldn't believe how lucky I was to be afforded this experience.

When U.S. News and World Report released its annual "America's Best Colleges" issue, dozens of YU students likely opened the magazine hurriedly or browsed online to check how YU fared in this year's rankings. Last year, many students were disappointed that YU's ranking had fallen eight spots from number 44 to number 52, thus losing the coveted "Tier 1" designation that accompanies a spot in the top 50 national universities.

I did not know what to expect when I signed up for a month long school trip to Italy. Professor Wagner, the professor who planned the trip in conjunction with Nancy Cave and Manhattan's Study Abroad office, has been taking students to Italy for years. I knew I would take an Italian class and a Dante Seminar, and that I would travel around Tuscany, but I had no idea how much I would see and experience.

Dear Devil's Advocate,
I am a freshman here at St. John's. However, I am also not from around here (about 5 hour drive away), so I do not know many people at all. Basically I am only acquainted with my roommates. It has only been a few days into the school year and I just feel terribly lonely.

It seems the talk of the University this semester so far is the New Founder's townhouses and how unique they are compared to other residence buildings on campus. One way they vary from other residence halls is the lack of Public Safety at the entranceway.
The Public Safety worker or guard at the front desk of residence hall dorms enforces visitation polices, and other Public Safety officers are visible all night, patrolling each hallway and lounge.

On August 25, returning upperclassmen moved into the residence halls to start a brand new year. While 2,700 students returned to the residence village, 284 students not only embarked on a new year, but they moved into brand new on-campus townhouses.
The New Founder's Student Townhouses have been highly anticipated for almost a year now, as construction broke ground last November, and lasted until July 30.
