Is there a space on campus to pray late at night?

Hi, I need a space to pray and cry late at night, but all the chapels are closed at night. Is there a space on campus to do that at night?

I hope things are going OK for you. So, you might try the candlelight Mass on the Newton campus at 9:15pm if you’re looking for something formal. (Campus Ministry’s Mass schedule: https://bit.ly/4gZEdVH) You might also try the Labyrinth outside Burns Library, or the reservoir if you’d like some birds for company.

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.
