Any advise for upcoming sem? (freshman)

When it finally snows, the campus becomes even more beautiful. Get outside! You may find that midterm due dates and exams are densely concentrated right before spring break. Start study and projects early so you’re not trying to do 5 things at once right up to your departure. After mid-March, the weather starts to heat up: make sure you get outdoors when it’s over 60 degrees again! Come April, you’ll see flowers all over campus; don’t take your cues from Seniors, who will have senioritis.

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.
