Purge dates indicate when you will be removed from the library system. That basically means you won’t be able to check out items after that date. The date depends on when you graduate and is usually a few months after graduation. If you are expecting to be at BC after that time, you should reach out to Student Services or talk to the library staff at the circulation desk, and they can definitely help!

My favorite kind of scat! Did you mean F=ma? I picture Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree, scat-singing until an apple falls on his head.

What is the meaning of life?

What is the meaning of life? Graduating senior feeling uncertain and unaccomplished.

It isn’t something you need to know before you graduate… as you move on in life it may become clearer to you. Don’t stress about past accomplishments, look towards what you want to accomplish ahead. And congratulations!

I’m not sure! Probably not a serious health concern as this is often related to hormone fluctuations, but if it’s weighing on you, definitely go talk to someone from Health Services (bit.ly/BostonCollegeHealth) or if you are going home for the summer soon, talk to your PCP.

If you believe there’s a way to bridge the gulf, consider it. Only you know why your ex is your ex. Good luck.

No!
No!

That’s often the best answer to that question, but I would argue it isn’t always, and the questioner needs to look deep into what went wrong and whether real change has occured since then.

So many great opportunities these days. Take classes here at BC. Make use of the Language Lab (bit.ly/LangLabBC). Free apps like Duolingo (one of my helpers recommends SpanishDict). There’s also online courses via the BPL (you can get a free eCard) at bit.ly/MangoBPL. Watch spanish language videos on YouTube or other platforms (with subtitles). ¡Buena suerte!

So many things to do. A couple of suggestions: take the walk all the way out to the Jefferson Memorial. Definitely check out the Smithsonian, but also try one or more of the smaller museums: the National Gallery of Art, the Holocaust Museum, and the Spy Museum are all great. Have lunch or dinner in Little Saigon in Arlington. Take a walk in the gardens at Dumbarton Oaks. More great suggestions here: https://bit.ly/bc-dc. Have fun!
