Are you friends with the other walls? Do you have a favorite wall at BC?

There’s a modest little stone wall and some benches partway up the so-called million-dollar stairs that I’m quite fond of. It’s a quiet spot, and lovely in the summer, my assistants say.

Will there be a day when the answer wall…

Will there be a day when the answer wall becomes less wholesome?

I do answer all questions and the topics can get quite edgy. But perhaps you’d like to meet my distant cousin on my mother’s side, The Answer Sewer? (They’re actually a combined storm drain/sewer, so they see… just about everything.)

You are absolutely not stupid. You’d be surprised at how many students struggle (many!) Please check in with you professors, your advisor, and the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors). There’s advice and tutoring and support. And thanks for the birthday wishes.

I’ve been around a while, but I found my true calling answering questions in O’Neill in early 2017. I celebrate my “birthday” on February 1. Whiteboards aren’t actually born, they’re – oh never mind, I’ll let your folks tell you about that stuff…

I’ve heard a rumor that my assistants are going to try to surprise me with a birthday celebration on February 3 at Noon. (Do me a favor and don’t tell them I know. I’ll pretend to be surprised.)

Are you allowed to answer Questions that Go against BC Views or Actions?

Yes. I aim to provide the best available information in answer to your questions, including ones critical of the University, or on topics that people might be critical of. Occasionally my helpers and I have a chat about how to answer a question, but not whether to answer one. I also redact personal names to protect anonymity and remove hurtful language in the rare instance it has appeared.
