Than the staff that are employed to work at the library. It seems like they get so engrossed in Doing other things like searching on the computer or reading above whatever's on their mind, it aint on really helping people, I have a head injury, okay, and I take medication. And I also have personal letters to deal with when I go in there, I need their help. I don't care if I ask for help, 20 times while I'm in there, isn't it? Their job to do just that? Why do people get jobs working with the public? And they don't have the willingness to help you, they seem to be glued to their seat. Now, I'm not talking about all the stuff, but I'm talking about most of them, you have about 3 people there that have the willingness to get app and help you, they act like they don't want to be disturbed. And then they rotate Around, and when it's time to go to the main desk, if you're sitting at a certain computer, you can't see them up there because they're salt done, they're trying to hide away from the company from the people seeing that they don't have to help you, this is more than ridiculous, get off your dairy air and help people that need the help. If I need the help, then I wouldn't ask you for the help, this is totally ridiculous and it needs to be some type of System implement it, like maybe they need to put some lights and where you don't have to constantly get app, you can press the light, it'll light app saying you need help and then it could monitor them how many times people push the button for help and see who's gonna help you and who's not this is totally ridiculous. I've become so frustrated. I have an anxiety condition that you know, I have to break and get out and go to my car and then come back in and try to finish up it really needs to be something done about this. Even the manager of the library, he isn't so helpful. He gets frustrated insulin that sets me off with my frustration. You're there to do a job, do it? I'\nM not talking about all of the staff being bad as I've mentioned before, but most of them, they become attached to their chair are they just sit there and look at you?Well , maybe it's this , maybe it's that no , maybe perhaps if you get up and come see what i'm talking about , you can give me the assistance that I need , it would be great appreciated

I've been to the book dispensary twice now and I will say, I love how many different types of books…read morethere are. I do have some problems, though. Firstly, the latest time I went, there were boxes of books everywhere, making it impossible to get into most sections. The childrens' section is quite small. The service is ok, but they are very unorganised, they said they had a book that I needed for school but they didn't end up having it. Their book trade in system is quite sloppy, I gave them $200 worth of old books and they gave me $15 worth of book credits. the value is terrible as well. A very rough looking book about Athens, Greece that I bought was $25, originally $25.50. Other than that, I love the place, I just wish it had better organisation and value.

For this Yelp review assignment, I chose to take of tour at the school all attend, the University…read moreof South Carolina. I chose this tour because it was simple and close to where I live, making it easy to pick a convenient time. I decided to take this tour at 8:30 on Friday, February 2nd. They seemed to run tours of campus every couple hours Monday- Friday from 8:30 am - 5:00 pm. The purpose of this tour is intended mostly for students who possibly want to become a gamecock and further their education at the University of South Carolina. This campus tour is a very important part of recruiting potential students, so making sure it is as memorable and special as possible is a top priority of the school. My personal purpose for taking this tour besides for this assignment was because I was curious what features this school had that I wasn't currently utilizing or if the tour included interesting facts that I didn't know. I had never taken a tour of the USC campus before and I was trying to have the mindset of if I will still a senior in high school looking for my ideal college. The tour started at the USC visitor center near the South Carolina Statehouse off of Pendleton Street. The group I was with consisted of all most all high-school looking students along with their accompanying parents. The mode of transportation that was used for the entire tour was just walking. Walking was the only realistic way to take this tour unless there were golf carts or Segway scooters. The employee who was giving the tour was a senior who attended USC and was working as a peer leader. I liked the fact that the person giving the tour was currently in USC because he talked about what activities he was engaged in and he probably knew more about all the details of the school over someone who was an older graduate for example. The role of the tour guide was to explain what each building was used for and where certain things were. Lots of the parents in my tour group had questions, and they were answered with ease. He also gave a multitude of facts about different monuments and historic sites. One of my favorite facts he gave was about the Maxcy monument located in the horseshoe. The person who designed that monument was the same person who designed the Washington monument. There was a rumor back in the day at USC that the ball at the top of the Maxcy monument would only spin when a true southern belle walked past. I would say the tour was beyond satisfactory and I learned much, much more about USC then I had known before. The tour guide was friendly, I was never bored, and seeing the parts of the campus I had never seen, or only seen freshman year was extremely interesting. This tour provided the service of helping incoming high school students decide if this was the right school for them by showing them the different amenities and facts about the school. Overall the tour had a very positive impact on me as well as the way I viewed the University. I was glad that I chose to take this tour of USC to use as the subject of this project. I went into the tour hesitant and feeling a bit out of place since I already have gone to this school for three years. As the tour progressed my knowledge of the campus and interesting facts increased. I would recommend this tour to everyone who has the opportunity to take it, even if you already go here.

The Horseshoe part of the campus is the "old" part and it is lovely. The rest of the University has mushroomed up all around it and includes a mix of old and new buildings, architectural styles and green spaces.

My loyalties fell under USC. This is a great school. Certainly not a high-end Harvard place. Certainly not a low-end, unknown school. According to everyone, USC's got the best school of business in the South or something. Classes are normal. Some too big. Some too small. And... Campus is in the heart of downtown Columbia, walking distance to the nightlife. All in all, I love USC. A great school with great history, a great instate rivalry, FOOTBALL (!!!!!!!!!!), and... yeah.
