ANSWER....School wednesday? What do you think?
This is a winter storm storm warning from weather.com.. Also keep in mind we just had a snow storm over the weekend so we still a foot-foot and half of snow on the ground. THE FIRST WILL OCCUR TUESDAY NIGHT WITH FOUR TO EIGHT INCHES LIKELY TO ACCUMULATE BY THE MORNING COMMUTE WEDNESDAY. THE SECOND SHOT WILL BE AN EVEN MORE INTENSE BURST OF HEAVY SNOW WITH THE UPPER AIR DISTURBANCE ITSELF THAT SHOULD OCCUR IN THE PHILADELPHIA AREA, MARYLAND AND DELAWARE DURING WEDNESDAY MORNING AND NEW JERSEY AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA DURING WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THE SNOW WILL END BY MIDNIGHT WEDNESDAY NIGHT. So what do you think school wednesday? School Thursday?

Point Park University (Pittsburgh, PA) University of Minnesota Boston University University of Miami (Miami, Florida) St. Cloud State University (Minnesota) Millersville University (Pennsylvania) St. Louis University Temple University (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) I am currently an incoming senior in high school and I have been looking ahead to my future a lot so far. I would like to go to college to triple major in journalism, broadcasting, and history. Then I would like to become a sports broadcaster or sports journalist (preferably for hockey, but I don't care). I know it's best to go to college in a big metropolitan city that is pretty sports oriented if I want to one-day work in sports, that's why Pittsburgh is the top city in my list.

I can tell you right now that Boston University is definitely out of reach for you.

I think you might have a chance at Point Park and Millersville. Your SAT scores are within range for those schools, but your GPA and class rank are a little on the weak side. Your extracurriculars seem pretty good, though. Unfortunately, I believe that BU and UM will be reaches for you. Try taking the ACT. Also, I'm not sure when app deadlines are, but try to boost your GPA during the first semester of your senior year. Good luck!

Is a University with an Art School worth it? -Please HELP-?
I'm a Junior at Palmdale High School. I'm deciding in going to Temple University in Philadelphia PA. and Master in Photography. They have a school called Tyler School of Art on their campus. I feel it's a good school. I like their review: B Though I want more information. Does this School consider as a program from Temple University? Since it has it's own name and all. I don't get this information from my school at all so im trying really hard to get answers. The courses they give for Bachelors seem good but could you break down this list for me so i can understand? What the numbers mean. (I have been explained before but now I have an example) http://www.temple.edu/tyler/bfaphoto.html It would be nice if one of you took the time to check out their site and let me know what you think. http://www.temple.edu/tyler And if you have any other suggestions please let me know. I want to stay in the state Pennsylvania though. What Do You Think.

Within University's you will find Schools for specific things. I graduated from the School of Art and Design at Alfred University. Where as another classmate might have graduated from the School of Liberal Arts. Whats nice about that is that you can take classes from other schools, minor or even double major. I think the program looks good. They start you off in Foundations and that will expose you to other medias (which may sound useless now, but foster much better artists.) The numbers are just the levels of the course. A 100-level (or it looks like 0100 at Tyler) means a introductory class, 200-level higher, and 300-400 levels are going to be advanced level classes. Typically anything 500 and above is a graduate course (with exceptions). . It looks like a good school, but you won't really know until you visit. You can meet faculty, see facilities and current student work and get your portfolio reviewed. That's the best way to choose a school. Good luck!

What college is right for me?
What college is right for me?
I'd really like to go into Photography and preferably a minor in Communications or video. I've gotten accepted into Corcoran School of Art & Design, but that's way too expensive for me, and I don't want to live my life in debt. I live Pennsylvania right now, close to Philadelphia. And I'm looking to get away from the area. I guess what I'm looking for is a reputable, inexpensive college that has my major/minor, and a decent social life (not really into the greek life), Someone please give me suggestions!

Get your degree in something else than photography. Photography schools may have been a good idea back in the days of film, when you needed to learn how to "cook" in a darkroom, but no more. You're just as well off buying equipment and software and learning on your own. I suggest a degree in marketing, management, finance, or accounting. These will be much more useful to you in life. Why do I say this? Because I have hired many photographers in my time, and been hired by many more customers to do assignments, and no one has cared a fig if I have a degree in photography. What they care about is whether or not I can GET THE SHOT.

Should public school staff be able to punish students for behavior that happens off of school property?
Should public school staff be able to punish students for behavior that happens off of school property?
Lets say a student made a parody Myspace page of a teacher or principal, should the school be able to punish a kid for that? (AP) PHILADELPHIA - Federal appellate judges wrestling with whether schools can discipline students for Internet speech posted offsite reached different rulings Thursday in two Pennsylvania cases. One 3rd U.S. Circuit Court panel upheld the suspension of a Schuylkill County eighth-grader who posted sexually explicit material along with her principal’s photograph on a fake MySpace page. However, a different three-judge panel said that school officials in Mercer County cannot reach into a family’s home and police the Internet. That case also involves a MySpace parody of a principal created by a student at home. And, in dissent, a judge in the first case said his colleagues were broadening the school’s authority and improperly censoring students. "I believe that this holding vests school officials with dangerously overbroad censorship discretion," Judge Michael Chagares wrote in the case, which upheld the March 2007 suspension of a Blue Mountain Middle School student. "Neither the Supreme Court nor this Court has ever allowed schools to punish students for off-campus speech that is not school sponsored and that caused no substantial disruption at school," Chagares wrote. School boards, free-speech advocates and others had been awaiting the rulings for clarity on how far schools can go to control both online speech and offsite behavior. http://kstp.com/news/stories/S958838.shtml?cat=162

No, they shouldn't. But would you agree that private schools also should not be able to regulate off-campus behavior?
2
I think the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court will be overturned, clearly the Supreme Court has already ruled on this in similar cases.
3
No, No school should be able to. Someone else brought up private schools. I don't know what that has to do with anything. Private schools can refuse to admit some students.
4
Since the video was made of a teacher or principal - yes, they should be able to punish them for that.

If not that , what else?
