As a freshman at college, it was hard getting lost and frustrated on a large campus. One can get directions but a personal map of the important places would be much more efficient. Therefore, I created a map for important places on the campus of Old Dominion University. This map begins by taking the freshmen to the University bookstore to get materials for class. A supplemental place for more resources is the library, therefore that will be the next stop. Then I would direct the freshmen to the Webb Center where I will show the Student health services. This is needed for survival and a lot of freshmen do not realize that they are paying for this service in their tuition, so they do not have to pay a co -pay. After Student Health Services I will direct them to the place where they can get a prescription filled without having to travel ten minutes to Walgreens. Gray’s Pharmacy is very vital to the students at ODU and they provide great business and are aware of the needs of students. Across from Gray’s Pharmacy sits the Student Financial Aid office. This is the central location of all student finances including, awards and information, loans, and financial aid. Last stop will be the new ODU Recreation Center. The recreation center is a place where students can continue physical fitness, be social, and participate in activities with other students. This is also a free service so freshmen will know that they do not have to go buy a gym membership because they can be fit by working out on-campus.
My blog this semester explored the community, communication, and the life of college students. This map will be an extension of how survive on the campus of Old Dominion University by using a form of digital and on-line communication.
