Trolleys roll by with a calm and tranquility, telling stories of how Henry Flagler and his lucrative railroad industry spearheaded the community’s economic growth. During the era of Jim Crow, things weren’t much different.

Florida’s "Stand Your Ground" law has come under scrutiny in the wake of the Trayvon Martin shooting. The law says that when threatened, people do not have to retreat and may use deadly force in self-defense.

However, the sounds of fingers typing on keyboards are not the only sounds to be heard. Hammering and banging echo from the roof top, and in an effort to keep Flagler up-to-date and safe, construction on the replacement of the entire roof has begun. The roof on the library has taking quite a weather beating over the years and after over 10 years of patching the sore spots, Flagler College has decided to start the rebuilding process. ]]> http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/proctor-library-repairs-inconvenient-but-necessary-college-says/feed/ 1 http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/flagler-review-launch-set-for-april-12/ http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/flagler-review-launch-set-for-april-12/#comments Mon, 09 Apr 2012 23:10:40 +0000 Gargoyle Workshop http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/?p=20558 By Marissa Marinan | gargoyle@flagler.edu All the hard work is paying off for the 17 student editors of The Flagler Review.

John Calipari of the Kentucky Wildcats has managed to get his first NCAA Championship after 24 years of coaching college men’s basketball. But with this glorious celebration comes the bittersweet moment of saying goodbye to many of the players that made this season possible.

He likes painting and drawing but enjoys creating art that has more of a purpose than just hanging on a wall. Fudala, a Fine Arts major graduating in the spring, is not only a talented artist but a versatile baseball player for the Flagler College men’s baseball team. The four-year player began his baseball career at Flagler as an infielder but developed into a utility player. “I’m proud of that because I like playing everywhere and I don’t like just being stuck with one title,” Fudala said. ]]> http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/nate-fudala-is-a-hit-in-baseball-art-world/feed/ 2 http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/remembering-kyle/ http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/remembering-kyle/#comments Mon, 09 Apr 2012 21:57:32 +0000 Gargoyle Staff http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/?p=20265 By Eliza Jordan | gargoyle@flagler.edu My blood felt like it was boiling. I felt like I was suddenly hung out to dry and forgotten about. Almost as if I knew I had limbs but couldn’t use them. Stuck in a tree and couldn’t get down. Hopeless and looking to others for answers. But all of these feelings were real feelings that I could feel. And every other feeling I felt, I thought, Kyle can no longer feel. We grew up together— St. Augustine local toddlers who magically morphed into successful college students, and despite the distance, still kept in contact from time to time. Kyle was a beautiful person. And if beautiful could be an understatement, it would be. Unlike many other young men around the age of 21, he was gentle, and spoke realistically with sincerity more often than not. ]]> http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/remembering-kyle/feed/ 0 http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/flagler-professor-and-forum-director-ostrowidzki-dies-after-battling-cancer/ http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/flagler-professor-and-forum-director-ostrowidzki-dies-after-battling-cancer/#comments Mon, 09 Apr 2012 14:01:34 +0000 Gargoyle Staff http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/?p=20507 By From Staff | gargoyle@flagler.edu Victor Ostrowidzki, a longtime professor at the college and Flagler College’s director of the Forum on Government and Public Policy, died on April 7 after battling melanoma.]]> http://gargoyle.flagler.edu/2012/04/flagler-professor-and-forum-director-ostrowidzki-dies-after-battling-cancer/feed/ 2
