1 Reason Why We Love our Dean…

Hey there, Terriers! Happy first day of Wimbledon! (Irrelevant, I know…) I was sitting around this morning watching tennis, and I thought to myself, ‘What can I blog today that both current and new students would love to see?’ and this video was the first thing I thought of. Enjoy! Keep being you, BU, and […]

Welcome to BU!

Hey there, new Terriers! Welcome to Boston University! I’m sure you’re super excited to get involved on campus.

A (Slap)Shot at History

Hey there, Terriers! I hope everyone is having an awesome week. I just celebrated my 21st birthday, so you know I’m happy. More exciting, however, is the Bruins’ chance at claiming the Stanley Cup—a feat that has evaded Beantown fans since 1972. It all comes down to tonight’s battle: Game #7. It’s been a thrilling […]

Boston’s Best of… “Froyo!”

Good morning, Terriers. Today’s the first day of the SCOOPER BOWL and good thing considering it’s going to reach 85 degrees… And in honor of our favorite icy treats, I thought we’d settle an unanswered question once and for all: Who sells the best Frozen Yogurt in Boston!?! The last time I tried to figure […]

I Scream for Ice Cream

Hey there, Terriers! It’s nice to see the sun finally shining as we move into June, but now we have something new to complain about: the heavy and tiring heat. Want to cool off with a sweet treat? Of course you do. From June 7 to June 9, the Jimmy Fund will be hosting the […]

Summer Splendor

Hey there, BU! It’s been awhile, but I’m back in Boston and absolutely pumped for summer in the city. Since classes and done with and the campus is going to be snoozing for awhile, I’ll be trying to focus on events across the city for those of you staying. If you’ve gone home, we’ll miss […]

Last Minute Studying!

Hey Terriers! Surviving? Summer is so close. Don’t give up. For everyone still studying (like me) I want to let you know that the Metcalf Ballroom next to the Ziskind Lounge is OPEN for studying and has FREE COFFEE & TEA. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, that’s the big room on the […]
