(Photo: Chris Pedota/NorthJersey.com file) For students recovering from drug and alcohol addiction, the typical college campus can seem like a minefield of temptation, with frat parties, tailgating and late night rounds of beer pong. To help recovering students cope , Montclair State University has set aside a floor in one of its dormitories for those committed to sobriety. Officials hope it will give recovering students a refuge on campus, as well as a way for them to develop a small community of classmates who can provide each other support.

20 Things to Do Before You Graduate From FSU

Image
I'm going into my senior year at Florida State University , which is terrifying and sad. The past few years have been awesome, each one better than the next, and I'm ready to make my final year the best one ever. I've done a lot of fun stuff and eaten a lot of good food, but I still have more to do. I decided to make a food/drink inspired FSU bucket list to check off before we all throw our caps in the air and peace out of Tally. (I'm not crying.) If you're an FSU student, get working on this list to make the most out of your time as a Seminole. 1. Have a picnic at Cascades Park. If you haven't been to Cascades park you should change that ASAP. It has a beautiful scenery with a man-made waterfall, an amphitheater, palm trees and more. If you're looking to get off campus (even though ours is beautiful) and away from college kids, Cascades is the place to go. My friends and I love going during the day on weekends and bringing along Taco Bell. They even have a...

Orlando's tourist core sees full-time residents moving in

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The Orlando tourist strip known most for attracting conventioneers and thrill-seeking visitors — International Drive — is getting another identity. In recent years, thousands of full-time residents have moved into apartments built on the southern end of the 11-mile corridor, which has been renowned for industry gatherings, shopping and attractions. Plans call for thousands more renters — and schools. "It's kind of the rebranding of I-Drive right now," said Luann Brooks, executive director of the I- Drive Business Improvement District . "We've turned into a live and work environment, which has never been seen here before." The I-Drive area has been a permanent address for renters — and also homeowners on Lake Willis — for years. But a transformation is underway with more than a half-dozen multi- story apartment complexes , some upscale and trimmed in stacked stone with resort-style pools. The south-central area of Orlando that includes ...
