So… Needless to say Halloween is fun, and I have to thank Babson College for renewing my Halloween spirit! Before coming to Babson I went through the whole dressing up is for little kids stage (please don’t judge me, I was a teenager, I was probably full of angst), but college has given me a…

Hey guys, I’m incredibly excited! Why you ask? Because I just found out that I’ll be heading to Costa Rica for a short course during winter break. What could be better than going to a warm, sunny country for 12 days during the coldest time of the year? Staying in the rain forest for those…
