This is a college visit review. We took son #2 here for one of their special visit days and they…read moredid it up right! Your basic college visit on one of these special days is lots of talk saying how the school is so great, a few tours and then some unstructured time where you can ask questions. The main presentation was short and sweet. It covered the important points without overdoing it. We all had a good laugh when the PowerPoint presentation stopped and there were technical difficulties with the equipment. We had a vivacious and very talkative tour guide who covered lots of the basic questions and gave my son some good insights. All in all it was a good experience. One star for the dumb ass who asked how much tuition cost. Um you look that up BEFORE you visit the college!

In our house, we preach state schools to our kids becasue we're not interested in any of the family…read moretaking on more education debt than absolutely necessary to earn a degree. So we make sure that we visit all the state schools in Indiana to find out what the campuses look like and what their culture is like. Vincennes University is a smaller university in southwest Indiana. The campus is very walkable. I think you'd be hard-pressed to be late to classes on a campus so compact. Some of the buildings have clearly had recent upgrades, while others were in the middle of construction when we visited. It was odd that the campus tour didn't include visiting any dorms or the student center. We saw on their website that they have a really nice recreation center too, which we weren't invited to see. But we did get to enjoy our gratis lunch in their dining hall, which was really nice. At the time of our visit, one of our kids was interested in cosmetology, for which Vincennes has a program. Now I know I said the campus is pretty compact, but the cosmetology salon where the students gain their practical experience is actually way off campus, in downtown Vincennes. It's a really old facility. I hope they secure some funding to update it soon, because it was really quite decrepit. Staff and student volunteers (ambassadors?) were really warm and welcoming though throughout the entire program. The staff made sure to answer all of our questions and the students all seemed very happy with their choice to attend and it was palpable. That's important to me as a parent.

There are wineries, state parks, kind people, and lots to do! Anyone need a travel buddy? I'd love to go back!

am writing to formally report serious misconduct by staff at the IU Kelley School of Business…read moreAlumni Association that I believe constitutes retaliation, unauthorized surveillance, and a potential violation of my rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act. I am a graduate of the IU Kelley School of Business living with a traumatic brain injury. Over the past several months I have made repeated, good-faith attempts to access basic alumni networking resources. My requests went entirely unanswered by Mr. Melvin, the head of the Kelley Alumni Association. When I took the step of notifying Kelley faculty of my concerns regarding how the alumni association is being operated, Mr. Melvin responded not with assistance, but with a threatening letter. Within that letter, Mr. Melvin explicitly stated that Mr. Eric Rodkin, Safety & Security Specialist at Hodge Hall, had been assigned to monitor and inspect all of my emails. I have a copy of this letter and am prepared to provide it as evidence. I must be direct: this is not a minor administrative failure. This is retaliation. A university alumni director used a physical security employee to conduct surveillance of a disabled alumnus's private communications -- solely because that alumnus raised legitimate concerns about the performance of a publicly funded university department. This conduct is deeply troubling and I believe it raises the following serious concerns: 1. RETALIATION - I was threatened and placed under surveillance in direct response to exercising my right to voice concerns about a publicly funded university department 2. UNAUTHORIZED SURVEILLANCE - Mr. Rodkin's role is limited to physical building security at Kelley. He has no legitimate authority to monitor the private email communications of alumni 3. ADA VIOLATION - As a person with a traumatic brain injury, using intimidation and surveillance to discourage me from accessing alumni services may constitute discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act 4. ABUSE OF POSITION - Mr. Melvin's use of a security employee to threaten and monitor an alumnus is a serious misuse of university resources and authority Mr. Melvin's Email Joshua, We are in receipt of your recent messages directed toward our faculty and staff. We have tried to address your issue multiple times and have clearly communicated that you will need to work directly with LinkedIn to resolve the problem. You still have access to the alumni group on LinkedIn.

This email serves as a formal request for you to cease sending any messages to members of my team, faculty, and staff regarding this issue. We are committed to maintaining a safe and respectful professional environment, and we do not tolerate communication that compromises the well-being of our faculty and staff. Please be advised that our Safety and Security Specialist has been looped into this correspondence and is now monitoring all incoming communications from your accounts.

Well I have been on the campus a few times over the years…read moreas I went to school at the rivalry school. But I just went back to Depauw to watch my nephew swim against them. It was my first swim meet to watch and I got to see the swim building. I have to admit the swim area is quite nice. Watching felt comfortable and seemed to be very nice. The swim building actually blended in to the overall campus architecture. I watched the meet and it lasted around 3 hours. There is no coat to attend the swim competitions. One drawback is the only food onsite is three vending machines on the first floor. There is nearby parking but I missed it as I had no idea which part of the building to go in so I ended up parking on a nearby street only to realize as I walked around the building.
