  • Building Stones of the National Mall
    The Geological Society of America Field Guide 40 2015 Building stones of the National Mall Richard A. Livingston Materials Science and Engineering Department, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland 20742, USA Carol A. Grissom Smithsonian Museum Conservation Institute, 4210 Silver Hill Road, Suitland, Maryland 20746, USA Emily M. Aloiz John Milner Associates Preservation, 3200 Lee Highway, Arlington, Virginia 22207, USA ABSTRACT This guide accompanies a walking tour of sites where masonry was employed on or near the National Mall in Washington, D.C. It begins with an overview of the geological setting of the city and development of the Mall. Each federal monument or building on the tour is briefly described, followed by information about its exterior stonework. The focus is on masonry buildings of the Smithsonian Institution, which date from 1847 with the inception of construction for the Smithsonian Castle and continue up to completion of the National Museum of the American Indian in 2004. The building stones on the tour are representative of the development of the Ameri­ can dimension stone industry with respect to geology, quarrying techniques, and style over more than two centuries. Details are provided for locally quarried stones used for the earliest buildings in the capital, including A quia Creek sandstone (U.S. Capitol and Patent Office Building), Seneca Red sandstone (Smithsonian Castle), Cockeysville Marble (Washington Monument), and Piedmont bedrock (lockkeeper's house). Fol­ lowing improvement in the transportation system, buildings and monuments were constructed with stones from other regions, including Shelburne Marble from Ver­ mont, Salem Limestone from Indiana, Holston Limestone from Tennessee, Kasota stone from Minnesota, and a variety of granites from several states.

  • Housing Options for Students Interning in Washington, DC
    Housing Options for Students Interning in Washington, DC If you are planning on interning in the nation’s capital over the summer, this guide is for you. Like most major cities, cost of living is high in Washington, DC; however, housing costs typically decrease the farther you are from the downtown area. It is important to consider higher commuting fees you will be paying by living farther away, so it may end up being worth it and less expensive in the long run to live in the city. Also, don’t forget about Washington, D.C.’s 14.5% tax on short-term housing, which is not included in the prices listed below unless otherwise noted. There is limited and expensive city parking, so most interns make use of the city’s exten- sive Metro bus and rail system. The city is arranged in quadrants—NW, NE, SE and SW—with the Capitol building at the center of them. It is important to keep in mind not only proximity to your internship, but also proximity to the city-center for social and networking oppurtunities. Make sure to start planning early! As the summer approaches, housing options tend to fill up. Besides the options below, many students use Facebook pages to rent rooms from stu- dents at DC universities (ex. American University Housing, Sublets & Roommates) **The following prices and details listed below are for Summer 2017, and are sub- ject to change in following years.** Student Housing Options American University 4400 Massachusetts Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20016 Phone: 202-885-3370 american.edu/ocl/housing/ucgs/summerinternhousing.cfm 6 week min.

    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.
