A couple days ago, as I was reading through some of my fellow classmate's blogs, I came across a particularly interesting entry by one Jessica Batanian. In her post, titled "Noisy Neighbors", she describes how she and her housemates were rudely awoken by some loud Springfield citizens having a party just behind the FIJI house. So this got me thinking....exactly how close are we mingled with the city of Springfield? Turns, out pretty close.
I live in the Kappa Delta house located on North Wittenberg Ave. From there, I decided to do a quick perimeter of the houses close by to see if they were all occupied by Witt students. All the houses immediately to the right, left, front, and back of us checked out fine. But across the street to the left and two houses down, I discovered that the house was actually occupied by three young gentlemen; all residents of Springfield, but none of them students of Wittenberg University.
I was genuinely surprised by this. After asking a couple girls in my house if they knew any of them,
This is very interesting. I would be very intrigued to find out what percentage of homes around Witt are owned by Witt and Springfield residents. It also would be cool to learn more about these people that surround Witt housing. Do they enjoy living so close to college life? Is it annoying? A profile of them would be very neat.
