Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
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.

How do you know it was a dream….. đ 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).
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.
Since moving to LA in 1958, the Dodgers have won the World Series every 9.8 years on average (let’s round it to 10). It’s worth noting that they won the year after moving to LA, so that average is probably on the low side of what’s actually representative. Still, the Dodgers last won in 1988, so we would expect to see them win again in 1998 (oops), 2008 (huh), and 2018 (?). So they’re defintely overdue and have gotten close. 2028 is your year!
So tempting, isn’t it – those adorable furballs! But best to leave all wild creatures alone. They can carry diseases and parasites (see: bit.ly/BunZoonoses), and also may not welcome your attention.
This would be a good issue to discuss with them: how often do they want you to call? How often do you want to call them? Do you want to set up a specific schedule (like every Sunday evening at 8 PM) or be more organic about it? In general, I would recommend erring on the side of calling more than less – even just a short call to let them know you’re ok and thinking of them is very nice.
The age difference seems pretty negligible (though one concern is it might be possible – though highly unlikely – for a freshman to still be below the age of consent).Whether hooking up is a good idea is another question, though. I would recommend the junior and the sophomore/freshman get to know each other better, before deciding on any further action.
![[Response: It does not exist. 0 can't be at the denominator. Hope that's correct.]](https://library.bc.edu/answerwall/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/aw041819-12.jpg)
The operation x/y asks what you must multiply y by to get x. For 0/0 the answer is “anything you want.” Because 1 times 0 is 0, but 3 times 0 is also 0 and 452 times 0 is zero, etc. So no single number is THE answer and it is considered indeterminate.
You can’t make someone love you. All you can do is be a loving and respectful person to him. If he doesn’t love you back, you have to find someone else who will.
It has finally happened, you have stumped the wall.
You’re welcome. And I thank you for being here as well.
There are hundreds (thousands?) of people named Ben Thomas, so it’s difficult to say who he is. If you find one, go ahead and ask him.
19 as a senior in college? That’s quite impressive. I have every confidence that you will succeed given how far you’ve come so quickly.
19 as a senior in high school? Well plenty of college students start when they’re 18 and some are even 17 when they begin college. You’re doing great!
Asking him will likely get better results than attempted mind-reading. At some point you’ll find the guy you don’t need to ask that question about. Maybe it’ll be this guy.
You have almost 3 years experience at BC; how does it feel to you when you think about carring that kind of course load? Consider what additional obligations you may have (job hunting? Grad school applications?). One option is to sign up for the classes now and if it all seems too much next Fall, you can drop something during the drop/add period. Also, check in with your academic advisor to get their take.
Here are my top 5 recommendations: Go to a Real Madrid or AtlĂ©tico Madrid fĂștbol game. Visit El Prado museum. Have tapas and drinks at a rooftop bar on Plaza de la Cebada. Walk along the Gran VĂa. Eat churros at the ChocolaterĂa San GinĂ©s.
It does seem a little dark for a holiday weekend, but you do you. Explaining suffering is a big deal cosmological problem. The first of Buddhism’s Four Noble Truths is that human life is bound up with suffering. http://bit.ly/bc-suffer1. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam also have their own reactions and ways of seeing suffering. http://bit.ly/bc-suffer2.
Forgive the philosophical answer, but that depends on what you’re looking for in a philosophy teacher. A good starting place might be to check out RateMyProfessor and see who scores well: http://bit.ly/BCPhilProfRatings.
Sleep soon! The semester is almost done. I believe in you.
