Bryn Mawr College Tops The Princeton Review’s list of “Dorms Like Palaces” | Bryn Mawr Now

Bryn Mawr College Tops The Princeton Review’s list of “Dorms Like Palaces” | Bryn Mawr Now

Hmm...don't think this applies to my dorm room. I can see how this applies to Bryn Mawr though. Guess I'll see what dorms in other schools are like when I visit my friends in their colleges.

A Different Kind of College Ranking

Bryn Mawr's #2!


"[Above, see link] are the Washington Monthly's 2010 liberal arts college rankings. We rate schools based on their contribution to the public good in three broad categories: Social Mobility (recruiting and graduating low-income students), Research (producing cutting-edge scholarship and PhDs), andService (encouraging students to give something back to their country). "

Heading back to BMC tmrw! Then I start class Monday ><;

It's not where you are or what you're doing that makes those moments memorable, but it's who you're with.

Summer's Coming to an End...

I don't think it's fully sunk in yet that I'm leaving for school this Sunday. But I'm beginning to feel the panic. With only so much time left, there's not enough hours to spend time with everyone I had hoped to and to do everything I wanted to do. Also, I haven't had time to figure out my responsibilities and expectations for the upcoming academic year. Oh, and I have to buy some stuff and pack.

In short, I'm really nervous about heading back to school. But just like with my uncertainty about this summer back in May, I'm lifting up my worries of the upcoming academic year into God's hands. If there's one thing I learned from this summer it's that He is good, and He works well. Very well.

blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him." (Psalm 34:8)

Wow this summer passed by so quickly. Tomorrow's my last day at VBS. And 16 more days until I head back to BMC. This is going to be an interesting and challenging academic year....

Also wondering if I should go to Passion 2011 on January 1-4 in Atlanta, GA. Looks like it's going to be amazing, as always. So much money though....
