Housing and classroom arrangements here at Sarah Lawrence—we live where we learn—are indeed poetic. It has long been said that the architecture of Sadie Lou represents what the school stands for—independent thinking and interdependent learning—and is not a result of a lack of geographical space or a rather meager endowment.

Liz Loves: Mail

Tuesday March 7, 2006
From the mail room floor in Bates to the endless reaches of cyberspace, Sarah Lawrence offers an assortment of communication choices to its community. While our systems are far from flawless, I long ago fell for the imperfections of this school, including the seemingly distant mail room, the (previously) notorious package distribution and the irresistibly lethargic web mail.

Middle Eastern cuisine has never tasted better, or been so enjoyably affordable, than at Chickpea, a tiny little falafel and shawarma (marinated and grilled Israeli-style meats) house on Third Avenue. The prices for the sandwiches were what got me hooked. For a mere $3.50, you can get a perfect portion of falafel made fresh on the premises with all the fixings. My favorite is the Shawafel, which is a sandwich that combines falafel and shawarma. Chickpea’s setting is very informal, with a bar to sit at as well as additional table seating in the back, which is enhanced by funky lighting and exotic looking furniture. If the freshly squeezed lemonade doesn’t strike your fancy, chickpea offers a selection of fine foreign beers if you’re of age. Instead of trudging off to the nearest McDonald’s for a fast-food fix, try a tastier and far more satisfying alternative and indulge in the fine Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine Chickpea has to offer.

Deciding what to do for conference work is always a struggle. With supportive teachers the possibilities for fieldwork and research are endless. Depending on the class, the teacher may recommend colleagues to speak to or novels to read, but for most students the choice is left up to them.
Liz Loves: Our Bronxville campus’ broken things
by Elizabeth Uzelac
Wednesday February 22, 2006
As I last left you I was discussing my infinite fondness for the little things that exist in our daily lives here in postal code 10708. For this week’s installment I would like to transition from acknowledging the miniscule objects that have a place in all of our hearts to appreciating the crumbling buildings and belligerent furniture that make SLC worth every cent of the astronomical tuition. Nothing makes me swoon more than the charm of the dilapidated.

City Eats: Go from Buttercup Bakes to Horus' hookahs
by Hilary Hughes
Wednesday February 22, 2006
After frolicking in Central Park or perusing some of the best museums New York City has to offer, stop by the Buttercup Bake Shop on Second Avenue to satisfy your sweet tooth before the train trek home. We’re all familiar with a certain downtown bakery known for its perfection in cupcake-form, but for those who go weak in the knees for butter-cream frosting, Buttercup is just as tempting as the West Village’s famous Magnolia Bakery.
