Terrie S. Rouse - CEO - Visitor Services - US Capitol Visitor Center
The U.S. Capitol Visitor Center expects to welcome more than 200,000 visitors, nearly one-tenth of the annual visitation number, during the upcoming two-week Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, DC. Terrie S. Rouse, CEO for Visitor Services at the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center, announced a series of measures that the Capitol Visitor Center is undertaking to prepare for the annual blitz of visitors during the spring season.“The best way that you can prepare for visiting the Capitol is to go to http://www.visitthecapitol.gov/ , where you can make a free advance reservation to tour the Capitol,” Rouse advised tourists. She also said that the Website includes important logistical information that visitors need to read before they visit the Capitol. Since opening in December 2008, the Capitol Visitor Center has welcomed more than 2.5 million people to the Capitol. This figure is double the number of visitors who came to the Capitol in the previous year. The Capitol Visitor Center’s central space, “Emancipation Hall,” tells the story of the contributions of the enslaved laborers who helped build the U.S. Capitol and provides visitors the opportunity to do a self-guided tour of the statuary collection in the Visitor Center.

Dr. Rick Niece - "Side Yard Superhero"
“Sticks and stones may break my bones but names can never hurt me?” We’re all told to believe this as children but, the truth is, the names some children are called can be the most hurtful of all. Bullying has become a national issue of concern after children and young teens who have been the victim of incessant bullying have taken their own lives. Bullying has been taken to such extremes recently that Massachusetts lawmakers are considering making bullying a crime. Not only would the assailants face prosecution of some sort but the parents and guardians could be punished as well. Dr. Rick Niece, a university president and tolerance advocate says, “Bullying is not acceptable. As adults, we need to impress upon children that bullying others, in person or online, will not be tolerated. It is wrong. If confronting bully-ism does not start with us, it will not end with children."
