What about the Droid attack on the wookiees?
What about it? Are you seriously going to take advice from the Jedi Council? Ask me about the Cookies.
Is this degree worth?
If you mean in terms of earning power, yes. 2017 median household annual income of a householder with a college degree was about $92k, while median annual household income of householder with HS degree was about $45k. (BC Access only: bit.ly/education-income) If you mean intrinsic worth, that’s harder to judge, but in the mind of this library wall, more knowledge is always worth more than less knowledge, even if acquiring it is sometimes painful & expensive.
Why so many works to do at BC :-| Why having Finals!
End-of-semester work is always stressful. You’ll get through it all, and you’ll ultimately be proud of what you accomplish, but in the middle of it, that’s often hard to see. I have faith in you. Good luck!
Why isn’t Waluigi in Smash?
There are many theories, but it does seem clear that Nintendo is particularly spiteful towards Waluigi! See this article in The Washington Post: bit.ly/WashPoWaluigi
Are witches cold-blooded?
You mean, as in “cold-blooded witch”? I think that’s just a common insult. There’s no mention of it in our Greenhaven Encyclopedia of Witchcraft. If you’d like to dig a little deeper our works on the occult have call numbers between BF 1404 and 2055, or you could try this search to start: bit.ly/bc-witches
Should I take organic chemistry if I’m not pre-med and hate chemistry?
There are people who hate General Chemistry, but enjoy Organic; very different experiences. The labs can be quite exciting. I won’t kid you; it’s a very tough course. You’d be in there with all the premeds, so the tension level can get intense. I’d talk it through with your Academic Advisor. Maybe you’d thrive on the challenge; as the Organic Chemist said, “It takes alkynes…”
How do I get hit by the newton bus so I can avoid finals?
I once knew an old but energetic man named Mr. Mehta; he was always busy, always in a hurry. I didn’t see him for a few months, and then one day he appeared in crutches & bandages. I asked him what happened. “I went under the bus!” he exclaimed cheerfully. But how could he be so happy, since his injuries slowed him down so much. “I am able to retire! And I am alive to be with my grandchildren!” He died a year later, possibly as a result of the injuries. I’ll bet you’re much better at taking exams than getting just the right amount of injured by buses. Good luck on your finals, and stay away from those buses!

How to approach difficult topics with SOs?
Honestly, directly, and as close to when the topic comes up as possible. It won’t get any better if you don’t address it. Also, the longer you sit on whatever it is the more important it becomes to you and the more unfair it will feel to your SO when you do finally bring it up. Here’s a little suggested reading: bit.ly/bc-conflict. Good luck!
Hellish Wednesday again because of procrastination. I never learn.
Acknowledging a problem is the first step to addressing it, so you are on the right track. It is difficult as the semester draws to a close and finals loom ⌠lots of stress and pressure. I donât know what youâre procrastinating about, but try breaking it down into chunks. Success can lead to more success. Next time do one little thing. And the next time add another. And if you fail or slip, try again. Ask for help. Persevere. I have faith in you! <3
I am sooooo nervous about finals!!! What if I fail? QAQ
I have faith in you! Sign up for tutoring at the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors) now – they end tutoring on 12/10, and appointment times fill up… And… even if you were to fail, failing an exam is not failing at life and is not the end of the world (much as it seems so during the college years.) Best of luck!
Is it possible to love two people at once romantically? If so, how do you know which person is right?
It’s possible to be in love with any number of people; the hard part is sustaining plural romantic relationships that are honest and loving. Polyamory isn’t for everyone: the demands on honesty and trust are quite high for all parties. How do you know which is right? A wise woman once said to me: you know it’s the right person when you can’t live without their virtues and can live with their faults.
Should I fall in love with a frog?
Yes. Nana would give you the same advice. Good luck!
Is the Market Basket in MA the same as in Bergen County NJ? They have different logos & different styles.
One way to answer questions like this is to look at databases on our Company Information research guide: libguides.bc.edu/companyinfo. They are separate chains. The Massachusetts chain has an amazing history; check out this book: We are Market Basket : the story of the unlikely grassroots movement that saved a beloved business.
