Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
There are some terrific guidelines and thinking points for providing context and doing outreach in this article from The Kennedy Center (bit.ly/KennedyCtrSensitiveTopics) It’s not specifically for catholic schools, though many of the points still likely apply.
Math really doesn’t work out, does it? Turns out they wrote 85. Final score: Hamilton 51, Madison 29, Jay 5, but there was historical controversy about that for over a hundred years. Hamilton and Madison claimed different numbers. Classic essay here: https://bit.ly/bc-fed
Goodreads is a useful place to look for similar books; try some of these suggestions: bit.ly/Similar2Pullman and bit.ly/similar2kingkiller.
Downtown Boston is generally LGBTQ-friendly, so you can go to most places and hang out with your friends without much trouble. If you’re 25yo or younger and want a LGBTQ-only space, check out the programs sponsored by BAGLY. Lots of resources on their site: www.bagly.org
Thanks for the rimes — good ones! I’d never encountered Slint before today, and at least one of my assistants was surprised to hear of an 80’s punk band he’d never encountered. Thanks for the tip! They must be the most Coleridge-adjacent punk band ever!
Thanks so much for the suggestion. Sad, but gorgeous.

Given that the BC football team was in the Top 25 earlier in the season, I can understand how a lot of folks feel really disappointed with how things have gone this year. It seems as if there’s a growing number of fans who believe the team can and should be doing better. A few of the team’s defeats were by 7 points or less, so one can hope the team is capable of getting more wins in the future.
They can be? I suppose the concern here is that an actor could act like they are interested in you even when they’re not. In reality, there are plenty of people that aren’t actors by trade that can be good at acting or faking emotions (part of the definition of psychopathy is the ability to do this). And there are plenty of bad actors that try to make a living out of it. Actor, as a profession, doesn’t tell you anything about whether the person wears their heart on their sleeve, is private, controlling, manipulative, loving, introspective, etc. People run a wide gamut, and their chosen profession usually doesn’t tell you much about them more an any stereotype about any other group of people.
I’m touched by the invitation! I will be there in spirit; please let me know what you thought of it.
Disney employs some good songwriters. From Dumbo to Frozen, it’s a rare Disney film without a few good numbers.
So tempting for any classic animation enthusiast, and lots of newer content as well. But I think I’ll be content with what the library offers me (and you): Popular movies on DVD right next to me, lots more DVDs across the lobby (check the catalog at library.bc.edu), and all the streaming options on this guide: bit.ly/StreamBC.
THE BEST! For those who don’t know The Legend of 1900, it’s a treat of a film. Watch a clip: bit.ly/1900-storm-dance. You can also check out the full film and watch it: O’Neill Library, near Reference Collection, 3rd Floor: PN1997 .L4446 2002
My inside source on all things Kofi (his Dad!) says that unfortunately there is nothing currently scheduled, but will try to let you know if anything is coming up.
Probs Construction. I am a wall after all.
I think he looks relatively like him. Close enough for a good actor anyway.
Hmm, what do you mean by that? By “sub-terraine,” are you referring someone who lurks in the depths of the internet, or elsewhere on campus? The Wall would love to help, if you can clarify a bit more on your situation! If you don’t care to elaborate but feel that you’re in danger, you can always reach out to BC’s Sexual Assault Network 24-hour hotline at 617-552-2211. If this is actually a question about the game Battle Cats, you can find some tips here: bit.ly/battle-cats-subterranean
I just listened to “Candy.” She’s an appealing J-Pop singer, with some jazzy depth beneath the sugar coating. I’m not sure what her Spotify numbers are like, but views on YouTube are modest. Of course, this likely a misrepresentation of popularity in Japan, where most people still listen to cd’s.
Sounds like a cool idea, but I doubt you’ll catch many gators in Chestnut Hill. The nuisance species here seems to be the wild turkey.
I’m not sure if you’re referring to dollar bills, certain bills that can be found on Capitol Hill, or the football team based in Buffalo, NY that plays their home games in Orchard Park. Regardless, thanks for sharing your enthusiasm!
I couldn’t watch after the wall was breached. I just couldn’t, I’m sorry. So I have no take on GOT ssn 8.
