Hi Folks,
It’s been a while since I wrote, but I have been doing many exciting things, from taking a short vacation to San Diego (my new favorite city, other than Boston, of course) to attending the NEACAC regional conference with Caitlin at St. Michael’s College in Burlington, VT. I can’t believe that June is almost OVER! This summer is going to fly by, I know it.
Since many admitted students (Class of 2012) read this blog, I was hoping to put the word out that we are soliciting student profiles from entering students. Many of you may be familiar with our current student profiles, which can be found here. If you would like to be featured on our website as a student in the class of 2012, please email me at Emily(dot)Moscol(at)Olin(dot)edu and I will send you the list of questions that we need answered.
Thank you!!!
I hope you are all enjoying your summer! See you soon!
Emily
We officially have a new summer tradition at Olin… I say officially because this is now its second year of existence. Thanks in part to Boris ‘09 who started this gluttonous behavior last summer - and thanks to Evan Bryce ‘10 this year - the weekly eating extravaganza continues: in essence, large numbers of the summer research students as well as various and sundry faculstaff* gather each Thursday to gorge themselves on ridiculously large portions of pasta (and bread and roasted garlic and salad and…) at Vinny T’s. So far, we’re averaging about half the summer student population = 25-30! And the faculstaff joining the gang week were Professors Oscar Mur-Miranda (ECE) and Chris Morse (Chemistry), and l’il ol’ me.
*Faculstaff is my shorthand for the combination of faculty and staff members (not very creative, but useful!)
About half the group; if you look closely you can see Arash ‘11 waving at the far end of the table.
My stomach hurts just looking at this!
