Ask anyone at Babson what their favorite night on campus is and I’m pretty sure the answer is Halloween. Every year seems to top the last and this one was no exception. Thursday night began festivities with a big pub night and lots of costumes. I pulled together a little something lying around our suite, [...]

Can’t I just be a permanent student? My suite-mates and I grapple with this idea almost daily. Especially as the job search emails from CCD come in weekly, friends are interviewing, and other people are even receiving job offers! I’ve put a lot of effort into avoiding all of the above, but it  has come [...]

“If you dont like the weather in New England, just wait a minute, it will change”
My friend told me her grandmother used to say that to her. Yesterday was some of the strangest October weather I have ever seen! and if you didn’t like the snow yesterday, its ok, its sunny and much warmer today! I must [...]

Family and Friends weekend has arrived at Babson, this weekend there is an amazing array of activities for visitors to participate in. It is always great to meet the many family members throughout the weekend. I plan to see the Babson Players performance tonight who always put on a great show.

It’s only a three day week! That’s all I’ve been telling myself as I prepare for a tough week of two exams, a project and a lab report! Columbus Day has allowed for a lovely four day weekend which flew by as I celebrated friend’s birthdays and visited an alum. The weather was beautiful on the [...]

The first month is almost over? How did that happen? The weeks feel like they are rolling by so slowly and yet it is shockingly three days away from October! It seems I’ve jumped right into the semester and haven’t slowed down yet. Fall ball (lacrosse) is in full swing now, practicing three days a [...]

My first full week of Senior year just came and went. My weekend was spent doing work mostly (I managed to find some time for play too!) They say it gets easier as you move up at Babson, am I taking the wrong classes for this to be true? I must be, because while I’m [...]

After months of planning, Babson College gets ready to welcome the class of 2013 on Friday, August 28th 2009.  The program is filled with great opportunities for new students to get to each other as well as faculty, staff and returning students.   In addition, there are workshops, entertainers, and speakers that will make transition to [...]

This past weekend (June 27-28 2009), Babson sponsored two family day events.  The first event took place at Babson College and the second event was in New York City at the Posse Foundation Headquarters.  The students had their first opportunity to meet fellow classmates of the class of 2013 and participate in a community service project.
