Sigh… I’ve heard from many humans that food is a delight, but also kind of tricky. I have a big appetite for post-its, so I kind of understand. But if you feel like you’re overeating, or feel guilty after you eat, maybe a conversation with the campus nutritionist would be a good idea: bit.ly/bc-nutrition.
If you and your partner communicate openly about both of your wants and needs, I guarantee you’ll both find the relationship more fulfilling. If you can’t talk about sex, what else are you not talking about?
The Reading Room is a collaborative study space and traditionally, collaborative study spaces can be noisy. If you need a quiet place to study, the entire 5th floor is a quiet zone. However, if there is a group of students in the Reading Room who are unusually noisy or disruptive, you can let someone at the Circulation Desk know and they will address the issue.
According to the Use of Alcohol at Boston College policy, “The possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages in any common or public area of the campus, or in a campus facility, is prohibited.” The only exception to this rule is if the library is hosting an authorized event where alcohol is served; and if that were the case, you would only be allowed to consume alcohol at the specific room where the event is taking place. Additionally, the policy states that: “Those students who are 21 years of age or older may keep limited quantities of alcohol, for personal consumption only, in their residence hall rooms, apartments, or suites.” Full policy: bit.ly/bc-alcohol.
If you can live with your differences and you can’t live without her, give her space to do things she enjoys. If you can’t live with those differences or you can live without her, move on & find someone with more common ground.
Here’s a good list of contemporary Croatian poets & their published works: bit.ly/croatian-poets. We don’t have much Croatian poetry in BC Libraries, but we do have a bilingual anthology: Love Lyric and Other Poems of the Croatian Renaissance, edited, translated & annotated by John S. Miletich.

No, but you might be in a hole for referring to a person you spent time with as “some female.”
It doesn’t seem to just be his putting, his entire game has been out of whack this year. If you watch him closely, you’ll sometimes notice he’s not himself – he’s quiet and antsy. At this point, I wouldn’t work on his stroke, I’d work on his confidence and getting that nervous energy out before he settles down to make his putts.
IDK, but here’s more info about Rape Aggression Defense, for all who are interested: bit.ly/BC-RAD
Yes, UHS can help you with that, and with treatment if you do have herpes – give them a call at 617-552-3225 to set up an appointment.
Living in close quarters does tend to raise that risk. But there are ways to keep it to a minimum – check out this list: bit.ly/GetSickLess Some of the obvious, but powerful ones: wash your hands often, get your shots, be careful with food handling, and avoid unsafe sex.
I will have my assistants look into this question. In the meantime, it sounds like a good thing to take up with UGBC (ugbc.org).
Update 5/2/19: Dining Services says, “Dining Services always has food available during break but some of our locations are closed and our hours of service are reduced based on the decrease in campus population.”
For classwork, I am duty-bound as a wall in a library to provide resources but not answers. (It’s also generally wise to go straight to the source in order to preserve accuracy.) Best sources in this case would likely be UCS (bit.ly/bc-counseling) and/or the Dean of Students office (bit.ly/BC-DOS).
By drinking raki and cooking a nice etli kuru fasulye. Here’s the recipe: bit.ly/etli-kuru-fasulye
There are a variety of types of aid available for graduate students through the University, including assistantships, fellowships and scholarships, as fell as various federal aid and other loans available from outside sources (bit.ly/BCGradAid.) Also, contact your department about other opportunities in your field that may be available from at different stages of your studies, including assistance for attendance at conferences, scholarships for finishing your dissertation, etc.
Sadly, in spite of my information expertise, I’m probably no better at predicting than the next wall. However, it’s a fair bet the energy mix will include less fossil fuels, and more sources that don’t add carbon to the atmosphere, such as wind, solar, hydro, and nuclear. If some European and Asian cities are a bellwether, human power (walking and cycling) may also play a part. Battery technology is improving and getting cheaper, so storage may become more decentralized. Centralized storage might use gravity: pump water uphill during the day that can flow downhill & power generators at night. For a more detailed answer, I recommend The Physics of Energy, by Robert L. Jaffe & Washington Taylor IV, O’Neill Library QC28 .J34 2018.
How do you know it was a dream….. 😉 It could mean any number of things (including maybe too much pepperoni pizza before bed). You may be interested in reading: Goodwyn, The neurobiology of the gods : How brain physiology shapes the recurrent imagery of myth and dreams (BF458 .G66 2012).
Better for you? Hard to say. Better objectively? Hard to agree on what to measure. BUT I HAVE MY OPINION.
Student athletes in revenue generating sports (football and men’s basketball) do a lot of work and make the university a lot of money without being compensated fairly for that. They are forced into these roles because the NFL and the NBA have agreed with the NCAA not to give players under a certain age the opportunity to play professionally. So these athletes have no choice but to either play for colleges for well less than their potential value on the open market or not play at all (look at Zion Williamson who almost lost out on tens or hundreds of millions of dollars because he was barred from the NBA draft and he did so in exchange for the “value” of one year at Duke University – about $70k). This is fundamentally an unfair taking of an athlete’s right to market his services. More big picture, there are those who question why institutions of higher learning are in the multi-billion dollar sports industry at all.
