Increase Acedemic and Spiritual Knowledge - 7/7/2010
With the campus of Brigham Young University-Idaho (formally knows as Ricks College) in Rexburg, it provides a great deal of educational opportunities. The campus grounds are manicured very creatively and maintained extremely well. The academic environment allows students to share ideas without the need to regurgitate institutional ideology. The spiritual environment allows for the individual the opportunity to obtain and strengthen their personal relationship with the Savior Jesus Christ. Come and visit the university and feel the spirit of the campus or the 'spirit of Ricks'. [read more...] |

Crime is not a concern. - 2/2/2010
Crime in Rexburg is virtually non-exsistent to the local resident. The only crimes I ever see in the papers are those of youthful exuberance and poor judgement, and bank robberies. Yeah, seemingly an above-normal amount lately, don't know why that is, but hardly a concern for the locals.
Perhaps it lies in the fact that in this LDS dominant college town...there are no bars within the city limits. And you can purchase beer and wine at the supermarket. And NO Starbucks [perhaps less jittery criminals are more docile..??]
Doors are left open like the old days...people don't lock their vehicles, and you can start your car, go back inside for twenty minutes [to heat it up] and come out, and it's still there. I tried that once in California, and, poof, car gone!
A safe, confident town that watches out for each other. Criminality is NOT welcome here![read more...] |
