Make frequent use of peer tutoring at the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors). Reach out to your professor/go to their office hours (that’s what they’re for!) Get a study buddy in your class and work together. I am confident you can do this!

This has been a question that philosophers and theologians have grappled with for centuries. Check out this book Free Will: A Very Short Introduction (bit.ly/introfreewill) to learn more about the question and make up your own mind (maybe as an exercise in your own free will?).

It heavily depends on what kind of cold email you’re writing, but marketing industry estimates are that less than 10% get a response. If it’s something more personal your odds are better. I don’t generally recommend catastrophizing, but here’s a case where you can assume “no” and be pleasantly surprised if you get “yes”. That helps some of my library colleagues, and might help you.

Not impossible but rather unlikely unless they can land a new forward in the current transfer window. The wall’s prediction is the title will go to Merseyside this year to cap off Klopp’s tenure as the Liverpool manager.

Terrific schools, but with quite distinct missions. Each school has different majors available and different areas in which they excel (e.g. Cornell has majors in Hotel Management and in Food Science; BC is in the top 10 globally ranked schools for Theology). One of my helpers suggests you also ask yourself how you feel about -27°F.

My one constant resolution is to support all of you (both literally and metaphorically). This year I thought another good resolution was to listen better, especially when there are so many ideas and opinions.

Prague is a beautiful city to explore! The Castle and Strahov Monastery are both beautiful (the monastery even has a library which I’m biased towards since I live in one too). If you enjoy walks, there are many parks and river walks. Oh, and check out the Lennon Wall and say hi for me.

Aw, thanks! ❤️❤️❤️ Visits from my friends brighten my day, everyday!

I really value being a supportive wall, and I think I’ve been doing pretty well at that. (The library is still standing!)

I don’t think anyone can answer that question. If you’re uncomfortable with your identity, perhaps talk to someone confidentially, such as a counselor: bit.ly/BC-counseling. If you don’t mind being more open about your sexuality, please know there are people at BC you can reach out to: bit.ly/LBGTQBC.

My heart goes out to you. I do not know the situation, but almost certainly the reasons are about him and not about you. If you want to talk, BC Counseling (bit.ly/BC-counseling) and Campus Ministry (bit.ly/bc-pastoral-counseling) are there for you.

At the risk of sounding basic, I’m going to say Chungking Express. It’s wistful, dynamic, and has a great soundtrack–the best use of “California Dreamin” in film, ever!

Fundraising can seem daunting, but keep in mind you are asking for money for a good cause. And you will be riding some serious miles to prove it is important to you. For detailed advice, try the latest edition of Fundraising for dummies (no offense meant!) online from the library: https://bc-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/f/l6ucgu/ALMA-BC51579070730001021

It looks great! And it sounds like they tweaked the gameplay in good ways, too.

As I am a wall, I cannot attend–but I hope you do. Please sing along to “Lilac” in my honor if she plays it!

I wasn’t familiar with that rapper/artist; thanks for making sure I’m up to date on the latest in Swedish rap! As a dance-impaired being, I mess more with his paintings.

The odds are on San Francisco, but I am not a betting wall…

Yes. If by “woke” you mean treating everyone mindfully with respect, which by its nature necessitates examining one’s own behavior for biases & inequity, and supporting those who have endured injustices. “Mindfully” is the key word; people can criticize reflexively, such as when they groundlessly accuse someone of being racist in order to feel good about their own virtue or similarly use “woke mob” as a pejorative term.

Very well, thanks for asking! Looking forward to the weekend…
