Though my heart goes to my beloved Lobby Door, Floor and I have always been great friends. Floor is so supportive to everyone, and never takes offense, even when someone steps all over them.

Wallus? I don’t think you wrote wallus, but that’s what it looks like to my aging eyes. At any rate, I’m always full of Answer Wall energy for answering questions, if that’s what you’re wondering. I would love to answer your questions.

I’m so sorry. Let the tears flow, and peace will follow. Ask a friend to give you a hug on my behalf.

The marginal return on cramming is pretty low, so I’d suggest studying as much as you can and still get a good night’s sleep. If you hit snags, try explaining what you’re trying to do to a rubber duck. https://bit.ly/bc-duck

Dropping a course can be complicated. I urge you to consult with your professor, advisor, and Counseling Services (bit.ly/BC-counseling) for support and guidance in making the best decision for now and for your future. My helpers have dropped courses and the world did not come to an end. But you might also find with support and maybe some tutoring with the CFLC (bit.ly/BC-connors) that staying in the class is manageable. Best Wishes!

Hey Naomi is Great ❤️ (手心) (Hand Heart)

Everyone has different experiences with professors and glad that you had a good experience!

I just got a copy of Either/Or by Soren Kierkegaard on a whim.

I just got a copy of Either/Or by Soren Kierkegaard on a whim. Can I make any good sense of it without taking a class on it/reading Hegel? I'm having a really tough time understanding it so any resources for doing so would be appreciated. Or maybe just telling me I'm in over my head with this. That works too.

Nah, philosophy is hard, no worries. A couple thoughts. 1) Sometimes a different translation helps. We have several. 2) Books like Kierkegaard: A Very Short Introduction, and the Cambridge Companion to Kierkegaard are designed to help you make sense of what you’re reading. Search for them at library.bc.edu.

It varies a great deal by school and by the assistantship. I would urge you to clarify the details of any offer and contact the Office of Student Services with questions (617-552-3300 or 800-294-0294; studentservices@bc.edu)
