I am a firm believer in starting the process of healing a troubled mind by talking to others – can I recommend BC’s counseling services? bit.ly/BC-counseling

Drawing of three arrows.

Auxiliary Services, the office at BC that takes care of vending machines, says they’re all in working order: “There are a few reasons why a student’s eagle card wouldn’t work (ie hold on account or they don’t have the right plan type). The credit reader on the vending machine is owned by the vendor (we do not what comes across on their cc machine). I have confirmed the readers are operating so if it’s just one student who is having an issue it could be that they have something to settle on their account.”

Very sweet family! I wish them all the best.

Given about 414 million years of evolution & good grades, perhaps Boston College.

If boys are turning into cats, that’s very confusing, yes. As to the rest of boys, well, they’re not as predictable as walls, that’s for sure, but that’s true of all humans.

What a wonder! A mythical beast with the body of a chipmunk and the voice of a frog!

Awww, what a cutie!

It’s a skill that gets better with practice, but can totally see how making art on the clock could be stressful. Maybe talk to your professor? (Also, that is a fine-looking whale)

You are for sure not alone. Try treating yourself like you’d treat a friend who was down on themself.

The moon, the stars, the sun, the clouds, and the sea. Breathe it in.

Ah! Well *I* have some thoughts! Looks like you’re talking about VARIANCE! That great and awe inspiring measure of dispersion! If you’d like to look at a book about statistics, head over to the HA29’s – lots of intro textbooks there. We have many online as well so stop by the reference desk if you need help finding them! Enjoy!

Seems like every major has at least one course that is just more of a challenge. I recommend making liberal use of peer tutoting at the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors) and also checking in with your professor at office hours.

No, because…. I’m a wall…

That was certainly Hamlet, Prince of Denmark’s question, but the play ended with poor Fortinbras knee deep in Danes, so I’m not sure it should be THE question.

You sound like a Zayn Malik superfan, and I’m unfamiliar with his music, so please tell me!

I’m not sure whether these are names of students here at BC, so I’ve erred on the side of caution and redacted them. That’s my wall policy because I can never be sure people named here consented to being named.

You are worthy! *Psych*

The BC Career Center has a fascinating Outcomes website (bit.ly/BCOutcomes) which says that for the latest year studied (Class of 2021) 2% were participating in a volunteer or service program. There will be others who take a break for service later in their careers as well.
