How is this year going to go?

You’ll be happy to know that when I ran this by my cuz, the Magic 8-Ball®, she responded “outlook good.” She’s not infallible, but let’s go with that prediction… and work together to make it a reality in any ways we can.

IDK what kind of films you like. Take a look at the DVD’s in the POP Collection just to my right (your left if you’re facing me) and see if there’s anything you like. Personally, I love My Neighbor Totoro.

Plz listen to Ravel’s “Une barque sur l’océan”! It’s my fav. piano piece of all time (both to listen to and to play).

Lovely! I was transported to the ocean and reminded of my mother, a sea-wall on the North Shore. I’m impressed that you can play those arpeggios. One impression is that it’s reminiscent of Satie’s Gymnopédies (though more complex), and it turns out Ravel & his circle were important champions of Satie’s early works, so maybe my impression wasn’t crazy.

What’s wrong with the new degree audit and course history?

How does BC expect student to register for class and start a new semester when the service has been down for the entire summer? I need my transcript and course history for grad school and scholarship application, but I can access none of those information. Also, student service has not responded to my email over the summer….. ? ? ?

Frustrating for sure! I contacted Student Svcs; they said if you are still a current student or up to 6 months out, use the “order a transcript link” in agora. If not, use the National Student Clearinghouse (bit.ly/GetBCTranscript). Student Services was very helpful on the phone, so you may want to call them at (617) 552-3300.

O’Neill Library

Hi, I’m the Answer Wall! I’ve been perched in the O’Neill Library lobby at Boston College since February 2017, except for a year in 2020 when I went fully online. Ask me a question by posting a post-it on me in O’Neill Library. I’ll answer within a day on weekdays. I snooze on the weekends, because answering questions is hard work!
