Parking, a Major Problem on Campus
Why do students and their parents pay such a large amount of money to attend the University of Dayton if there is not going to be any place for parking? I am a first year student at the university so I understand that I am not permitted to have my car on campus (Handbook). My boyfriend on the other hand, lives at least a half hour away and comes to visit me several times a week. He arrives and has to drive for a very long time trying to find a place to park where he will not receive a ticket. He has tried to park everywhere we can think of, but it never seems to work out. The first few times he came over public safety/the police department was willing to give out temporary permits for visitors and people staying overnight. They allowed the driver to park in the main parking lot, which is in the middle of campus as long as they were gone by eight or nine in the morning so university workers would have the spaces to park. Public safety decided to do away with temporary permits because it was becoming a hassle for them. So as my boyfriend would still come to visit he had to hunt even harder for a space not knowing whether they would be giving tickets or not. He parked off the university in the neighborhood and received a ticket from the city police for being parked on the street. It seems that no matter where he parks he is going to get a ticket and the prices go up each time he receives one, eventually they will put a boot on his tire so he cannot leave. It costs over one-hundred dollars to get it removed. After a series of tickets the will tow your car and not let the driver back on campus unless all the tickets are paid off.
Finding a parking space that is not against campus violations is ...

The Tower of London is one of the most famous historical buildings in the world. Constructed by William the Conqueror in 1078, this grim, grey, and awe-inspiring tower, is the most haunted building in England. Perhaps the most well known ghostly residents of the Tower of London are the spirits of Anne Boleyn, Sir Walter Raleigh, The Princes in the Tower and among others.

In chapter seven of Book One, Aristotle is almost vague as he tries and defines what happiness is, and more importantly, why happiness is crucial to the human function, and in fact states that “nor should we demand to know a casual explanation in all matters alike” (1098b). Comparing it to simple truths that are a priori, like when dealing with fundamental principles, he admits that it cannot be defined so easily nor so quickly. He then struggles, in chapter eight, to define happiness. It is, according to him, a kind of “good life and well-being;” virtue precludes action as well as thought. It is also synonymous with virtue: even though virtuous acts are, in general, “not pleasant by nature … men who love what is noble derive pleasure from what is naturally pleasant” (1099a).
...e who have misused drugs and alcohol significantly require support and more care even though they comprise of a small portion of the veterans with mental problems. What we actually did when placed in vet centers was to promote the veterans to assess their own needs as well as development of a plan to meet the needs. As Brancu, Straits-Tröster & Kudler (2011) points out; Individual veterans are informed about different choices for available care and support. As a professional, a nurse is regulated by wide-range of ethical consideration to ensure that the veteran’s patients are treated with respect and dignity. In turn, we were to ensure veteran autonomy in determining what to confide about and what to conceal. Confidentiality and privacy is another most important ethical aspect I found to be a consideration to avoid private information spilling to unintended persons.

Parking by the dormitories is almost impossible. Students who live at particular dorms find themselves faced with the problem of having to park on the other side of campus. Those who live in Brown Hall, which is behind the Thompson center, have the most parking problems on campus. This is because the Thompson center is a very large building housing various departments on campus. Therefore it receives a lot of traffic all day. Visitors to the campus are taking over the parking lots around the Thompson center, which is forcing students to park other places on campus and some students chose to disregard the signs posted for reserved parking.

Aristotle makes a conclusion that to be happy, one must have both complete virtue and a complete life (page 12). Pathways to happiness can only be a natural good. A natural good is the result of a human action in which the end result of that action is pursued in its own right (page 7). Happiness is the ultimate goal of human life and virtue is one of the highest achieved goods. To be happy, one must also have a complete life, meaning a life without misery. One can be virtuous and still be unhappy if their life is full of misfortune.
The pursuit for happiness has been a quest for man throughout the ages. In his ethics, Aristotle argues that happiness is the only thing that the rational man desires for its own sake, thus, making it good and natural. Although he lists three types of life for man, enjoyment, statesman, and contemplative, it is the philosopher whom is happiest of all due to his understanding and appreciation of reason. Aristotle’s version of happiness is not perceived to include wealth, honor, or trivial
Unlike Plato, Aristotle questions and concludes that virtue does not suffice happiness. His definition of happiness is the activity of the soul in accordance with the most perfect virtue. He believes one must be active and make full use of his/her rational capacities to function well. This perfecting of ones character was Aristotle?s key to happiness.
