This week, I’m updating on where I am academically as a Wellesley sophomore. Declaring your major is the major part (see what I did there) of sophomore year at Wellesley! At Wellesley, you can major, double major, or major and minor. If you plan to study abroad in your junior year, then as a sophomore you’d have to declare your…

Monday Night is the New Saturday Night
Hi all, Happy first week of October! Holy moly did September just fly by so quickly. The fall at Wellesley is one of the most beautiful times to see campus. The leaves start to turn to a pumpkin orange, and the campus feels like a fall wonderland. I am envious of everyone being able to experience it this semester! While…
My Fall Traditions :)
Hello Blog! Yesterday was one of my favorite traditions at Wellesley – Lake Day! On one day in the fall semester, while the weather is still pretty warm, the college president will send out a surprise email saying that it is simply too beautiful outside and all classes are canceled. The Schneider Board of Governors (SBOG), our student-run campus-wise activities…
A Weekend in Boston
One thing about me is that while I love exploring, I easily get caught up in work and don’t go into Boston as often as you might think. From time to time though, I am hit with the need to go out there and just walk around the city. That is exactly what I did this past weekend. Boston in…
From First-Year to Abroad
Hi all, Another week is in the books for this fall 2023 semester! I still cannot believe I am a junior this year. It feels like just yesterday my parents were moving me into campus in a post-COVID era. I am very happy that those who have moved in this year and in the years to come will get to…
My Favorite Wellesley Tradition
One of my favorite Wellesley traditions is…. Flower Sunday! If you don’t know, Flower Sunday is the oldest tradition here at Wellesley. Once a year on a Sunday in September, first-year students (littles) are paired with upperclassmen students (bigs); bigs give flower bouquets to littles, attend a multifaith ceremony at Houghton Chapel, and bond over brunch. Everyone dresses up nicely…
School is back in session and so are Anna’s blogs!
Hi all, Welcome back to Wellesley or welcome to Wellesley, new students and visitors! Whether it is your fourth year on campus or your first, the start of classes can be a whirlwind of emotions and so many syllabi. Enjoy the little moments in between and take time for yourself. Go for a walk around the lake, have lunch on…
Time for a Reintroduction!
Hi! My name is Tenzin, a Wellesley College student, and I’ve been blogging here since the fall of my first year. But, I want to reintroduce myself to readers: I’m a sophomore from Illinois, and I’m going to major in economics and minor in statistics. When I first introduced myself on this blog last year, I said I wanted to…
Reintroductions!
Hello Blog! Welcome to my return to blogging! I assume most of you are new readers, so it seems only appropriate to reintroduce myself. My name is Jade, I’m a current junior at Wellesley (go green class!), and I’m originally from Massachusetts – only 30 minutes away from Wellesley. I’m a big fan of all the trees we have in…
I’m Back!
Hello everyone! My name is Vyara (she/her), and I’m once again one of your student bloggers! I’m an international student from Bulgaria, a current sophomore (it feels weird saying that instead of “I’m a freshman!”), and I’m a future physics major. My hobbies include reading, listening to music, and scrolling through Pinterest (yes, that does sound a bit boring on…
