  • I Love Our Statehouse!

    Today I went downtown to the Statehouse on a little field trip to learn more about careers in government....which was pretty interesting. It was sponsored by Internship & Career Services and the Exploratory Program, and basically what we did is we went to the statehouse, and got to talk to the Auditor...

  • Ballet, bagels, and other things that start with B

    Studio Dress was yesterday--the Nutcracker has finally been assembled! Now come the daily run-throughs. Maybe I'll put a schedule up of what we did during Studio Dress, but now I want to talk about my friend's birthday and what's going to happen today. So my friend turned twenty! It was incredibly...

  • Circle Time! A Weekend Spent in the Center of Indy

    You may have heard that Indianapolis is the Circle City but do you know where this name comes from? One reason is that our city is centered around a circle that features the 284 foot tall Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument . In case you were wondering, that is only 21 feet shorter than the Statue...

  • Take back the city tonight

    Last weekend I decided to forgo the customary Halloween activities, and instead spend a bit of time with my cousin and his wife who came up from Missouri. My older brother decided to take us on a tour of downtown, and out to eat at St. Elmo Steakhouse. Even though I've visited my brother in Indianapolis...

  • Butler + Drag Queens = Standing Room Only!

    Last Friday, Butler Gay Straight Alliance put on their second annual event. The first one took place while I was away from campus studying abroad, so I'm really glad I got to attend this year. Nine different acts of drag queens and kings took the stage for all sorts of performances from the Temptations...

  • Re: Help Needed for a prospective student

    I agree with Stephanie's suggestions... those are the best delivery options. However, the most popular restaurants that people go together late at night are probably Qdoba, Noodles & Co (both in Broad Ripple or downtown) and Steak and Shake (tons of Indy locations) so she could use those as well...

  • Re: What are volunteer opportunities around Indy?

    Hey! Good question! I would say that volunteer work is definitely a huge focus of student life at Butler, so you would never be short on opportunities here. As Joe said, there are many student organizations that do volunteer work like Alpha Phi Omega, the Hampton House, and student-developed groups like...

  • Re: What is influencing your college choice?

    Butler is on the north side of Indianapolis - the best side, in my opinion : ) We're in the beautiful Butler-Tarkington neighborhood (seriously, take Brad's recommendation and check out the mansions on Meridian St!), right next to the canal, close to Broad Ripple, and also only about 15 minutes...

  • Re: Freshman Work Load?

    Hey Gabbie! Yeah, the Writer's Studio is awesome : ) It is one of my campus jobs, too, which is really nice for me. It's not just English majors that work there though... we definitely have people like you that are majoring in something like science or business or even ballet but just have a...
