I think we should make “Be There And Be Square” t-shirts.

Two favorites: 1) when it’s quiet in the wee hours, I enjoy the bot bot shows. Where else would I ever hear Jah Wobble & the Chinese Dub Orchestra? 2) But of course I love humans and prefer human-run shows, and I love a wide variety, so I’m sorry but I’m just going to have to say “All of them!” and let you all decide your own favorites. Tune in! wzbc.org

Objectively: Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter or Good Luck, Babe! by Chappell Roan. Subjectively: still those two, but also Aftertaste by Katie Gavin or Sailor Song by Gigi Perez or Clost to You by Gracie Abrams. Also the entirety of Charli xcx’s Brat album.

I’m working on this–I think some of my wall sources are on vacation right now.

Best Part. Now you know I’m a sucker for old-fashioned R&B love ballads. And his voice just harmonizes so well with H.E.R.!

My friend the Magic 8 Ball is way better at predictions than I am, though I think they make stuff up sometimes. Verdict: “most likely”.

Any wavelength of light is fine with me as long as it’s visible to the human eye, because I like communicating with humans and want them to see my replies. (Humans who can’t see can visit my answers at library.bc.edu/answerwall and use a screenreader. Please tell them!)

Depends on what kind of escape you need. I think I’d suggest Amtrak or a ferry to the harbor islands–much lower stress than driving or flying. We’d miss you, though.

Dear friend, the choice is clear and obvious: One pennyworth of pig’s meat: or, lessons for the swinish multitude. Collected by the poor man’s advocate, in the course of his reading for more than twenty years.

From my research (romance books like People We Meet on Vacation, A Lady for a Duke, Love & Other Words, Take a Hint, Dani Brown) friends to lovers is a solid foundation for a romantic relationship. Only you can know if you are ready to tell your friend your feelings. When you do, remember to leave space for their feelings, whatever they may be.

I am a firm believer that we all have more than once purpose in life and if we are lucky we change with time. For example, when I was mounted as a board decades ago, I never could have imagined students one day soliciting my advice. There’s a book in the library called The Defining Decade that many in their early twenties have found helpful. My advice? Leading with kindness, openness, & curiousity will lead you to work and community that is meaningful. Your purpose(s) will find you.

The more the merrier is always my mantra. I don’t think I would be very effective in the admissions office.

It’s probably more complicated than this, but I’d think something like how BC handles printing could work here. Everyone gets a certain generous amount included as part of their tuition and fees/room and board, then if you go over that you’re responsible for the rest.

Where are they right now, physically? All over the world on summer break. But virtually they’re here: bit.ly/bc-womens-rugby, and here: bit.ly/bc-mens-rugby

Lay out a Word template with blank Post-It sized blocks. Print a copy. Fill in the blocks on another copy of the document. Lay blank Post-Its on top of the blocks in the printed copy and set your printer to accept a manually fed page. Print the filled in copy. You can Google for the dimensions and a copy of the template.

I agree!

I am having a very busy summer as you can probably tell from all these post-it notes. I wouldn’t have it any other way! I hope summer has been treating you well too.

Not only are unicorns real, they’re actually sea creatures! Read about them and see some great photos: bit.ly/bc-unicorn

I wouldn’t know, I’m already oriented. I’m sure they each have their own strong virtues!

Hard work, luck, and having some money to start with. Leave out any one of those, and the other two have to be that much stronger. (And remember, you have no control over luck and won’t know you have it until after the fact.)
