Gaylord was the first offical dormitory that was founded in 1884 (Perry et al. 54). Like other dorm rooms it was heated by steam (wood stoves) and had gas lighting (Perry et al 55 and 56). This shows how food was very scarce in 1800-1900’s. During this time the women had to go to the spring three hundred feet from each building for drinking water, but In Gaylord, cistern water is piped to every floor in ladies’ hall (Perry et al. 55). Water was hard to get as Crete had no water system (Perry et al. 55). Gaylord had many rooms. This dormitory had 42 rooms that housed 75-80 students (Perry et al. 56). This hall was different because the women teachers also reside (Perry et al. 57). I would not like my teachers being my RA in college. Reverend…

In The War of the Worlds, the curate shows up just as the narrator thinks about his wife. He is described with a ‘thin white hand’(70) and ‘almost a complaining tone’(70), both feminine traits. Arguably he becomes the replacement of the narrator’s wife, requiring the narrator’s protection and reassurance. This is what the narrator does with his wife…

Should we give money to panhandlers? Well some people think so because they feel it is the right thing to do but on the opposite side of that coin some people feel that it is counterproductive to do that. Some businesses feel that panhandlers hurt their business by standing out front asking for money because they ask potential customers before they get to the door and if there offended by this they will not even bother going in to the business they were thinking about going in to before but on the opposing end depending on the business it could actually help them in the long run.
