Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
When? The Magic 8 Ball says “Cannot predict now” but, know that there are wonderful resources to help you including the BC Career Center (bit.ly/BC-career) and the CSOM Undergraduate Advising Office (https://bit.ly/CSOM-advising). Also we have a wonderful CSOM librarian (Doug!) so swing by O’Neill and introduce yourself!
BC has a whole interdisciplinary program in Women’s Studies, but you might start with something like this: https://bit.ly/bc-gender
As a wall, I don’t actually eat. But I am enthralled by the endless combinations and techniques, and the way groups develop their food cultures.
Travel; find things that bring you joy other than your phone; patience; kale, connect with the arts; don’t be a sheep (even though they’re cute); and be kind, and be brave.
You could: earn it, inherit it, marry into it, get it through investments, gambling, or robbery. There are certainly ethical considerations with any of these plans; I suggest a consultation with the Career Center (bit.ly/BC-career) as a good place to start.
If you haven’t already, invest in a good pair of shoes for walking. Additionally, don’t be afraid to try and find a community to play with for events
Wanting to stop is a great first step! Next, why not schedule a meeting with a peer Wellness Coach in the Ofc. of Health Promotion (bit.ly/BC-wellness-coach).
“We know little about love. Love is like a pear. A pear is sweet and has a distinct shape. Try to define the shape of a pear.”
Any time can be the right time, it’s hard to give general advice. If you and he aren’t at the same place, it’s probably better to know sooner than later.

Who’s That Pokemon!? It took some digging, but we finally caught Quagsire. If assignments have you in a haze, check out the research guides my helpers have thoughtfully put together to direct you to top resources: bit.ly/BCLResearchGuides
Oh no! It looks like Psyduck may have a bit of a headache. If midterms and research papers are giving you a headache, check out our Ask a Librarian services at bit.ly/BCLAsk to see if one of my librarian colleagues can help!
Nope.
I expect she’s amazing in some way….
There are actually some really positive reasons: BC Dining has been committed to paying a living wage to its employees, buying local and sustainable food, etc. None of this comes cheap!
True. BC is choosing to charge market prices, rather than pay for wages and supplies some other way.
Sounds like you have some thoughts. If you post them here I can pass them along.
Wow. That’s quite a lot. I wish I had the answers for you, and I really wish there were an easy and quick nugget of insight that would help. I will be thinking of you and all BC students as we head towards May. And, I know you said you don’t have time for counselors, but if that changes at all, here are links for the Connors Family Learning Center: bit.ly/BC-connors and BC’s counseling services: bit.ly/BC-counseling
I mean, they changed a couple of rules since the last time, but there’s nothing particularly shady about that. This is a small campus and a big event, so rigging it would have to involve a bunch of people keeping a secret. Allow me to observe that large groups of humans do not seem to be very good at that.
Are we talking Yamaha as in A5R A-Series or as in Super Ténéré? If the former, I’m thinking “Les” or “Gibson”; if it’s a biker fishy, how about “Ducati” or “Harley”?
Thanks for the recommendation!
