    Fun place to work. We all feel like one big Family; my only complaint is the low pay.

    Always a really uplifting experience to walk around this arboretum…read more Awesomely, you can download tours from their podcasting link (http://www.scottarboretum.org/special/podcasting.html), which makes it really enriching. The arboretum is all over campus, but my favorite part is Crum Woods, located at the back of campus, behind some dorms. I always approach it a certain way, and like to head through the outdoor amphitheater (where graduation is held) as the start of my trek, but the official Arboretum Office is located off Cedar Ln (which is off of College Ave). You can download a map of the woods trails online, and that also shows a portion of campus. If you find the amphitheater, keep going into the forest from there, and you'll pick up the trails of Crum Woods. Dogs are welcome on leash, and when picked up after. The woods trails wind up and down hills, through different patches of vegetation (woods, field, etc.), and you'll see the nearby Septa rail line (formerly the "R3") traversing the landscape. While the specimens on campus are beautifully groomed, much of the arboretum (though certainly well cared for and maintained), is not all manicured like Morris Arboretum, or Longwood, or Chanticleer. It is left more natural, which I find really pleasant, but for those affected, please note, this does make a good portion of the arboretum inaccessible for handicapped people. And, even for those who are able-bodied, I do recommend sneakers, for sure, and some comfortable walking clothes. Your body will thank you, especially on a hot day. I think a lot of people enjoy this place for different sentimental reasons. An ex-boyfriend of mine would go there every Thanksgiving with his family to take a walk after the big meal. I have family who are "Swattie" alums, who seem to just see it as part of campus; a trip down memory lane. Some people like to exercise there, etc. It's weird, the different people I have been there with, all have such different reasons to like the place. My special tie to this arboretum is my grandfather. My grandfather was extremely into horticulture in his retirement, creating his own local orchard, to develop new holly hybrids, which he got to name and all (sorry I don't know the correct horticultural terminology for producing a hybrid). He had a good relationship with local horticulturalists, and in the 70s the Scott people and he did some sample trading (as the family story goes, I believe my grandfather got a Magnolia cutting, and they got a Franklinium cutting), so there may be some of his trees in the arboretum today. So this place always reminds me of my grandfather, and the time I spent with him in his orchard. The Scott Arboretum is really special to me for this reason.

    Hidden away on the gorgeous campus of Swarthmore College is this mecca for both novice and…read moreexperienced gardeners. Even if you're not a gardener it's a beautiful place to just wander the 300 acres of trails and enjoy a beautiful day surrounded by nature. Did I mention it's free! The mission of the Arboretum is to display plants suited for home gardens in this area. It's open every day and once again it's free.

    Prospective students should carefully research accreditation and program value before committing…read more On March 10, 2026 I did an impromptu at Pennsylvania Institute of Technology located Media, PA to inquire about the LPN program, Unfortunately, the interaction was unwelcoming and dismissive. The staff member who assisted me did not introduce herself, offer a professional greeting, or engage in a meaningful conversation about the program. When I asked questions, I was largely directed back to the packet instead of receiving clear explanations (after requesting for piece of paper to capture nuggets, before she handed over the packet). I was also surprised to learn that the program is not accredited, despite the significant tuition and additional costs for prerequisite courses ($5,000.00 2 classes). Overall, the experience left a poor first impression and did not reflect the level of professionalism prospective students expect when exploring educational opportunities.

Then Suddenly around 94/95 There was a first year Electronics Teacher ,who used to work at RCA, who was also male started sexually harassing me. I wasn't sure as to what to do, plus I was very insulted by what was happening to me by this person. All I wanted was to get my degree as fast as possible and get out of there. I was very pissed off with this teacher to say the least. I never forgave this Person for the insult they did to me;I should have said something to the main office but I didn't want to start any trouble. I regret not saying anything at the time when I had the chance. I never went to my graduation nor did I ever go back to finish my dual electronics degree. Good riddance.
