Hi everybody!
Hopefully the cool-off period after application submissions has set in, and you've gotten into the groove of the worrying senior, thinking and pondering over what in the world you're going to do and where you're going to be next fall! That's definitely a fun.. experience. I'm happy I'm done with that, though.
On another note, my group's abstract and proposal were recently accepted for Wellesley's Ruhlman conference!
Basically, Ruhlman occurs every year in April, and students from all different departments present on academic research and interests that they've delved into over the school year. Classes are off for that Monday, and students, faculty and even offcampus visitors visit Wellesley to partake in the different presentations. It'll be interesting to go through the presenting experience myself this time, though.
I'm excited!
And now, here's a list of
Ten Things Any Prospie (or Accepted Student!) Should Do When They Come to Wellesley for a Visit, With Each Thing Being Posted Once a Day for Ten Consecutive Days
1. Ask a professor about why they decided to teach, and hunker down for a good tale. Yes, this may take a while…or it might just be the quickest story you've ever heard.
[My friend, Maliha, and me on top of a frozen lake in New Hampshire this weekend. The wind sure was blowing hard!…And this isn't too far off of what Wellesley looks like right now.]
