College isn’t all about how good your GPA is or being the top student in your major. There are other important things that students can get out of going to college. Not only do you need an education for your future, but you also need life skills. A professor will not teach you everything you need to know, but the experience of being in college can. One of the most obvious skills learned in college, is time management. With a new schedule filled with classes, homework, sports, and a social life, it is easy to find yourself overwhelmed. As your time goes by in school, students get a feel for how to balance their life and get things done on time. What would college be without the new freedom of independence? When you were in high school, there was a good chance that all you were focused on was homework

Interview with San Fermin’s Founder Ellis Ludwig-Leone
Troy Heidtmann Sits Down for an Interview with San Fermin’s Founder Ellis Ludwig-Leone for a brief, but intimate interview at Boston Calling. A short while back I had the privilege of talking with San Fermin’s founder Ellis Ludwig-Leone. Sitting in what appeared to be a back ally of Boston City Hall with Boston Calling in full effect in the distance, I got to know Ludwig-Leone very well in the 10 minutes we spent together. Ludwig-Leone is a composer and songwriter from Brooklyn. He spent his high school years rocking out in a hard rock trio. Only to drop it all to study classical composition at Yale where he exceeded greatly and was the apprentice to composer/arranger Nico Muhly. From there, San Fermin was born.

China has Special “Sidewalk Lanes” for Walking While Texting
Walking the streets in any major city today is a peril for pedestrians, not from cars, but from fellow pedestrians who are too engrossed on their smartphones to see where they are going.

To make the sidewalks safer for elderly people and children, the city authorities in Chongqing, China, have designated a 100-feet stretch of sidewalk in busy entertainment district as “cellphone lane” for people who use their phones while walking. The sidewalk was split into two lanes – one labeled “No cell phones”, while the other reads “Cell phones. Walk in this lane at your own risk.” SOURCE Photo credit: unknown
