Last I knew there were cozy spots on the ground floor of Gasson Hall. But I’m biased for O’Neill Library; it’s full of soft chairs, but I’ve seen humans sleep at tables, in carrels, and even on the floor in the stacks. (There must be something restful in library air.) But I think the best spot of all is The Spot. IYKYK.

Lots of great buildings on campus, but I really like the chunky rectangular lines of my home.

The flip side of uncertainty is possibility.

Ask yourself: what prompted her to go upstairs? Have those circumstances changed?

I would seek advice from the department, your faculty, and the Career Center (bit.ly/BC-career). There are many resources for finding internships (including global opps) on this page from the Career Center: bit.ly/BCInternshipOpps.

Well, I am not u, but maybe someone else is? Nope! You are a unique individual!

Take a left at Charles Bridge and walk along the Vltava until you get to The Dancing House. If you keep walking you’ll get to the Visehrad Cemetery where lots of famous Czechs are buried. You’re also following in reverse the protest march that sparked the Velvet Revolution in November 1989. There’s a memorial to the student protestors on Narodni Street a little further back.

Being a university president is a tough job; it is impossible to please everyone (just look at what happened recently to several presidents). Ultimately, Fr. Leahy reports to the Board of Trustees, so he takes direction from them. It is up to the Board to determine if Fr. Leahy should resign, and they seem very happy with the upward trajectory of BC’s academic reputation and endowment.

I can’t leave my supportive role here for the floor above me, but I encourage all of my human helpers and fans to go!

? Based on my experience watching students every day, the risk may not be as great as she fears. Just be there for her, and make sure she understands that failing a test is not the end of the world and does not mean she is a failure. Maybe suggest she check out peer tutoring at the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors) and also talk with her prof.

There seems to have been some misunderstanding here. But if you mean me (The Answer Wall), I will have to thank you but respectfully decline; I am in a committed relationship with The Lobby Door.

I’ll let you two work this one out between you

According to Douglas Adams (RIP), it’s 42, of course.

Ukraine’s summer counter-offensive didn’t go as well as hoped, and there has been a lot of hard fighting this winter, with Russia trying to advance in several places. Neither side is winning or losing right now. I’m following the Kyiv Independent, the NY Times, the Washington Post, and sometimes the Wall Street Journal and Financial Times, all of which have good coverage. The first one is free and in English, the rest are available to everyone at BC either through the library or after setting up a separate account. Details here: https://libguides.bc.edu/newspapers

Hey! This is just plainly not true (maybe you hit a nerve here…) While students who gravitate to a particular major may have some similarities, there’s little justification for saying they all suck. Get to know some other CS students.

Get something serious done off your to-do list right now; that may very well ease the restless feeling and let you feel free to chill out for a while.
