Silhouette (1991-92) ^^m^m Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from Lyrasis IVIembers and Sloan Foundation http://www.archive.org/details/silhouette19919288agne . RIGHT Here & RIGHT Now • Silhouette • RIGHT Here & RIGHT Now - the Silhouette has arrived in your (hopefully eager) hands after far too many delays and misadventures. This Is a compilation issue covering two academic years. As such, this edition is the product of two distinctly differ- ent editors - and staffs - and represents a medley of their ideas and concepts. Margaret Hammond ('91 Editor) contributed the colorful retrospective view of the world outside ASC in mini-mag form (pages 49- 72). Katie Tanner ('92 Editor) had the energy to persevere with production in spite of the odds. So ... ^fua^me t^ ^i^^ene«tee . if you will, that a creative, intelligent mind can contribute to the production of your yearbook ... or to the service of any number of organizations here at Agnes Scott. Become involved! RIGHT Here & RIGHT Now the Silhouette is setting a new course. With this "compilation" edition, we aspire to close the door once and for all on books produced and delivered after the fact - often with a loss of detail. If portions of this book are found lacking in material, thoroughness or description, please you might have made by being an active participant on the Silhouette staff. RIGHT Here & RIGHT Now we present the 1991 -1992 Silhouette. HEREy^ <RietlT•> —^HoyN \/ h in: 'wmwm Pamela Wolf Allen Jerri Delores Lori Ammons Annmarie Anderson DoRAViLLE.

  • Decatur's Transportation Network, 2007
    3 • Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 CHAPTER • 3 Decatur’s Transportation Network, 2007 othing speaks louder of a city’s transportation system than how its residents use it. A public survey conducted as part of the CTP revealed that sixty-seven N percent of commuters drive alone to get to work or school. Over 20 percent of commuters in Decatur either walk, bike or take transit. Even more interesting, 79 percent of residents reported having walked or ridden a bike to downtown Decatur. Additionally, the majority of residents feel that it is easy to get around the City. These results indicate a system that already provides a lot of choice for travelers. The following sections detail the extent of these choices, i.e. the facilities that make up the existing Decatur transportation network. The CTP uses this snapshot of how Decatur gets around in 2007 to recommend how the City can build upon its existing strengths to realize its vision of a healthy and well-connected community. Existing Street Network Streets are where it all comes together for travel in and through Decatur. The streets and their edges provide places for people to walk, bicycle and travel in buses and other vehicles. Compared with the MARTA rail system and off-road paths and greenways, the street system in Decatur accommodates the majority of travel and is detailed below. Roadway Classification in Decatur In 1974, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published the manual Highway Functional Classification - Concepts, Criteria and Procedures. The manual was revised in 1989 and forms the basis of this roadway classification inventory.
