Going back to my last two blogs and my failure to meet the $300 challenge (Part I and Part II), I was, at some point, going to have to pay with my pride. Well, without going into too many details, I will report that a bunch of us from the Office of Admission attended a…
An annual tradition that we have here at Babson is our Mr. and Mrs. Babson Competition put on by our Campus Activities Board (or CAB for short), where students nominate other classmates, typically juniors or seniors, to compete for the ultimate title and crazy bragging rights.

Quickly approaching the end of my first semester at Babson, I have…
Being away from home for the first time can be very rough at times. One of the hardest things for me has been being away from my family. Leaving a home where there was always support to being on your own is tough. There is almost a sense of loneliness to it. However I have…
Hey Everyone! This is my first blog post, so I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Caroline Malone, and I am one of the four admissions interns for this summer. Each day I help counselors give information sessions to perspective students, and then I give 2-3 campus tours. It’s been so much fun…
It’s that time of year again, the sun is out, birds are chirping, and all the leaves and flowers are in bloom. While it is one of my favorite times of the year because we get to barbecue and enjoy the beautiful weather, this year I cannot seem to enjoy it as much. Why you…
