The typical BU student is anything but just a student. We’re club presidents, stellar interns, and student office employees. We write, photograph, tutor, and volunteer in our free time. Our busy schedules may make studying a struggle, but we’re always striving to do our best. That said, midterms are upon us, and we’re getting ready for our first major tests of the semester. After 3 long months of summer and only 1 way too short month back at school, adjusting to “test mode” may be hard, which is why the Educational Resource center is holding Midterm Mashup in 100 Bay state Road (Room 101) from 9/30 to 10/3.
The ERC will be holding special workshops such as…
Brain Food
