Can you rank the buildings on campus in terms of coziness/how welcoming they are?

I may be biased, but I would have to say that O’Neill Library is the most *surprisingly* cozy & welcoming. The facade is new brutalism, but my supportive & kind library helpers and the comfy chairs give this building a warm heart. I’m more familiar with academic buildings, most of which are more grand than cozy, with the exception of the libraries, of course. I’m not as familiar with the residence halls. Maybe you all can rank them?

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.
