Behind on Email

‘Tis the season of admissions emails, campus visits, and Visiting Days!

Please forgive me if I do not respond to your email right away. I promise I will respond soon.

I really look forward to meeting everyone coming to Visiting Days this year. My advice, as I posted last year: wear comfortable shoes. This seems to be an important life lesson, which I have only recently mastered.

Alternative Spring Break

In case you haven't picked up on it, SI is really big on practical experience. (Check out my blog entry about my experience last year!) One of the best programs (in my opinion) is Alternative Spring Break. This is when tired and sick of winter grad students spend their spring break working for a non-profit organization. The placements are as varied as the interests at SI. This year students went to New York, Washington DC, and Chicago. ASB is a great way to gain more experience, learn new skills, network, and even have fun.
