My Experience with RSS Feeds

Hello everyone,

this week I was required to set up my own RSS Feed Reader which I will explain in more detail in my next blog post. In short RSS feeds bring all of the most recent website posts you subscribe too in one place, it truly offers a convenience that no other site does! I signed up for my own account at http://cloud.feedly.com

I subscribed to a number of different websites, as I was browsing through my feed one article in particular caught my attention. The article was titled "Brock University a top choice with Ontario high school students". You can access the article here. As many of you know I attend Brock University, which is why this caught my attention. The article reported that Brock received 16,000 applications from students in Ontario and that there was an increase in students selecting Brock as their first choice school.

I've spent my entire life living in the Niagara region. So many of my friends that I've grown up with always talk about how they can't wait to move out of the area. From constantly hearing these comments I was surprised, yet pleased that more students were selecting Brock as their first choice university. I personally have enjoyed my time at Brock, meeting new people yet still having the convenience of being close to my family. I often forget how much the Niagara Region has to offer as i've lived here my entire life. We have beautiful scenery surrounding us, and the Niagara Falls just 20 minutes away. I truly believe that Brock will only continue to grow, and I would not hesitate to recommend this school to future students!
