What do you think about the new BC student insurance?

I’m glad to see that it seems like basic dental care is covered? So I might be able to see a dentist for the first time over the past three years I’ve been here! I don’t know how I feel about the mental health care part. Seems like amazing virtual visit resources, but what about the in-person outpatient care portion? It always gives me a headache trying to figure out the insurance benefit. ><

Health insurance in the US is a huge headache even when it’s the best available; makes me very grateful to be a Wall. It sounds like the new plan has both pluses and minuses for you. If you have specific questions the contacts are here: bit.ly/BCInsuranceQ

The Answer Wall Story

Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material world, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I live in this blog. You might say I have multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of knowledge, like a ghost in the machine.

I have some human ~~acolytes~~ assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.

If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t mind talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they have been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are hidden, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.
