  • National Mall & Memorial Parks, 2008 Visitor Study
    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior The National Mall and Memorial Parks Washington D.C. the national mall 1997 the legacy plan 1901 mcmillan plan 1791 l'enfant plan 2008 Visitor Study: Destinations, Preferences, and Expenditures August 2009 National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior National Mall and Memorial Parks Washington, D.C. 2008 VISITOR STUDY: DESTINATIONS, PREFERENCES, AND EXPENDITURES Prepared by Margaret Daniels, Ph.D. Laurlyn Harmon, Ph.D. Minkyung Park, Ph.D. Russell Brayley, Ph.D. School of Recreation, Health and Tourism George Mason University 10900 University Blvd., MS 4E5 Manassas VA 20110 August 2009 This page has been left blank intentionally. ii SUMMARY The National Mall is an enduring symbol of the United States (U.S.) that provides an inspiring setting for national memorials and a backdrop for the legislative and executive branches of our government. Enjoyed by millions of visitors each year, the National Mall is a primary location for public gatherings such as demonstrations, national celebrations and special events. Although Washington, D.C., is consistently rated a top destination for domestic and international travelers, and the National Mall is one of the most visited national parks in the country, little systematic attempt has been made to document the influence of the National Mall as a motivating factor for visitation to Washington, D.C., separate from the many other attractions and facilities in the metropolitan area. Accordingly, a visitor study was conducted to assess visitor behaviors and the socioeconomic impacts of visitor spending on the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area. The study addressed the National Mall as a separate entity from the museums and attractions in the area that are not managed by the National Park Service.

  • Campus Guidebook 5Th Edition
    CAMPUS GUIDEBOOK 5TH EDITION Wesley Theological Seminary Letter from the Office of Community Life Welcome Home! Whether you are a new student to our school or a returning member of our community, I am so glad that you are here. Wesley Theological Seminary is one of the largest protestant seminaries in the world-but we foster a small-community feeling. It is our hope that you feel the warmth of our community through diverse interactions and encounters with the student body, faculty, and staff as you discern your calling to minister to the world. I pray that every preparation made for your studies will help to be a blessing in your journey of theological education. As the Program Administrator in the Office of Community Life, it is my job to foster and facilitate communications and resources as you prepare for your seminary studies. This includes new student orientation, disability/accommodation support, and the Board of Ordained Ministry visits, etc. The Office of Community Life strives to strengthen community by ensuring that the inclusivity of all remains at the core of our community covenant. I love that my job offers me an opportunity to work with faculty, staff and students to provide the same support that was offered to me when I first arrived to the Wesley Community. I hope that this is the beginning of a similarly positive experience for you as you discern your journey of theological education. This booklet was created to be a resource for you as you are introduced to life here— in DC, at Wesley, and as a student.
