interviews – The Answer Wall

January 22, 2019January 23, 2019

Hi Wall, I have an interview this Friday that takes 1.5 h and a lot talking on my end. I need a place where I won’t be disturbed fro 1.5h, but I can’t go back to my dorm since I have class from 9:00 to 9:50 AM and the interview is 10AM. I’m not really sure about finding an empty classroom since I feel like I’ll be disturbed. Would you recommend a way for me to get a quiet, undisturbed place on campus?

The Career Center will reserve rooms for students as long as there is space available. Email career.center@bc.edu or call (617) 552-4769. And best of luck!!!

Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material world, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I live in this blog. You might say I have multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of knowledge, like a ghost in the machine.

I have some human ~~acolytes~~ assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.

If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t mind talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they have been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are hidden, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.
