Reflecting Entrance

emory003

The main entrance of Emory University reflects a lot of the University. “Emory University is one of the worlds leading research universities and recognized internationally for its outstanding liberal arts colleges, graduate and professional schools, and one of the Southeast’s leading health care systems”. As I entered the University main entrance i felt proud, it gave off a good vibe. The entrance is beautiful and prepares you for whats on the inside.

Campus

Emory University has a beautiful outdoor campus. As i took notes for my project i realized how clean and calm the campus environment was. The grass was green and smelled fresh. The sounds i heard mostly included chatter, laughter and birds chipping. I also saw a lot of squirrels running up and down trees, scattering around in the leaves. Emory gives a very peaceful setting. No wonder it is ranked one of the best college campuses in Georgia.

Chirping birds: Emory University Recording

Above is a recording that i took while sitting on a bench at Emory University near the Robert W Woodruff Library. The recording was taken on February 11th approximately at 6:00pm. The sounds in the recording included birds chirping and chatter in the distance. The campus is an outdoor campus that is beautiful, very clean and calm. However, Emory University is surrounded by hospitals. What i wasn’t able to get on the recording was the sounds of firetrucks and ambulances passing by every hour.
