THE QUIET RETREAT that Bapst Art Library,
one of Boston College's eight libraries, provides has
become almost a living legend in itself. Home to
the university's resource in the fine arts, it was
the original library of the campus and designed
as a "cathedral to learning" The natural sciences,
meanwhile, have become a popular field of study
for many students, especially those enrolled in
the Premed program. Professor Michael Piatelli,
Biology director of laboratories, oversees all
General Biology Lab sections to ensure students
begin their scientific pursuits on the right course.

IF A PHOTOGRAPH can speak a thousand words,
the student photographic exhibition in the Bapst
Student Gallery, 'Injustice & Hope! sent a power-
ful message that reflected its title. With a com-
pilation of photos taken from school-sponsored
and personal service trips, the Art Club-spon-
sored show integrated the artistic depth of the
university's students with its belief in service for
others. The gallery, opened in the spring of 2004
to meet the demands of the growing art commu-
nity within Boston College, continues to feature a
wide range of media including painting, sketches,
watercolors, photography, and ceramic sculptures.

THE APPALACHI A VOLUNTEERS program of Boston
College was founded by Gregg Cassin in 1978 when he
and eleven other BC students traveled to Vanceburg,
KY over their Spring break to serve the community
there. The group offered one of the first reflective,
immersive service experiences in the country. Today,
the Appalachia Volunteers of Boston College includes
over 650 volunteers spread throughout 36 different
locations within the Appalachia region, making it the
largest spring break service organization in the United
States. Despite its rapid growth, the organization has
remained true to its original goals and continues to ser-
vice with the same dedication shown by its founders.

FOR THE CLASS of 2007, it has been a long journey. Four years
ago we met over 2,200 incoming freshmen from all fifty states and
over 65 different countries. We waited for the Newton bus in sun
and in snow and we sat for hours in Stuart through dinner with
Amy and Una and then triple decker grilled cheese sandwiches with
Joe at late night. We played basketball on Upper, frisbee outside
Medeiros and then jumped in the snow in the Dustbowl. Know-
ing the arduous task of finding true friends, we forged relation-
ships and hoped that they would last. As we look back four years
later, the question remains: how much have we changed, how much
have we stayed the same? This is who we were. Who are we now?

OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT
May, 2007
TO THE CLASS of 2007:
As you approach commencement, I suspect that many of you feel that the years
since you entered Boston College as freshmen have passed so quickly. I hope you look
back on your time at BC with deep gratitude and that you approach the future with great
hope and confidence. \bu arrived on campus with many gifts and talents, and I am
confident that your time here has helped you grow in self-knowledge and in desires to
help resolve challenges facing our world.
I am grateful for your many contributions to the Boston College community
and also for your generous involvement in wider society, whether in the Boston area
or in the other parts of our nation and the world. So many possibilities await you after
graduation, and I am confident that you will continue to respond effectively wherever
you find yourselves. For decades, graduates of Boston College have gone forth from
"the Heights" to lead fulfilling, productive lives, and that certainly is my hope for you.
I trust that what you have learned and experienced during your time at Boston
College will guide and sustain you in the future. May you be nourished by the ideals of
Boston College, the friendships you made here, and your personal beliefs and values. I
pray that God will always be near to you, and may you lead lives marked by faith, hope,
and love.
Si ncerely,
William R Leahy, S.J.
President

IF HISTORY IS important for the lessons it
offers, what will future generations think of
the events of 2006 and 2007? What began in
2003 as a war to combat terrorism and weap-
ons of mass destruction continued through the
past year as thousands of Iraqis were killed in
sectarian reprisal attacks and the U.S. military
death toll neared 3,000. Former Iraqi dictator
Saddam Hussein's execution was intended to
alleviate anxieties of terrorism yet with rising
concerns of the ramifications of 'An Incon-
venient Truthr contaminated spinach, air-
plane bomb plots and nuclear warfare, a sense
of uncertainty pervaded every sector of the
globe. Even in the face of a war that began
under such strong convictions, Defense Secre
tary Donald Rumsfeld resigned one day after
U.S. midterm elections gave Democrats control
of Congress and forced President Bush to admit
that changes needed to be made. Yet for all the
worries we found a way to laugh. Lonelygirll5
and a "Canon Rock" epitomized the explod-
ing power of YouTube, Wii and PS3 enthusiasts
waited for hours for the latest in gaming con-
soles and audiences worldwide learned about
the comedy of American culture from a fie
tional Kazakh. If, then, the last twelve months
have taught us anything, it is that we must look
closer and understand the intricate and yet small
worldwide web in which we live. Myra Chui

SINCE 1927, TIME editors have awarded a "Person of the \ear" to the
individual who, "for better or worse^ had the greatest impact on the year's
events. Ever conscious of the changing world, the magazine named its
first "Woman of the \ear" to Wallis Simpson on the cover in 1936 and first
"Persons of the \ear" to Bill and Melinda Gates on its 78th edition in 2005,
replacing the antiquated title of "Man of the \ear!' In spite of the maga-
zine's longstanding clout, however, the decision to name 2006 as the year
of "\bur beating out potential honorees President George W Bush, Condo-
leeza Rice, Kim Jong II, Nancy Pelosi and The \buTube Guys, seems a radi-
cal choice. And yet at the same time a logical one. It is about \buTube and
Yahoo! Mail, Google and Wikipedia, Facebook and MySpace, and the way
the World Wide Web has changed the world on every level. It is, argues the
magazine, "about the many wresting power from the few and helping one
another for nothing and how that will not only change the world, but also
change the way the world changes!' It is, simply put, about you. Myra Chai

IT IS NO surprise that throughout the last twelve months, the majority of top U.S. new s storie;

important in a generation" for the issues and the stakes that they represented. With such hot
topics as state constitutional amendments banning same - sex marriage and South Dakota
voters rejecting a proposed law to ban nearly all abortions, the surprise came when Democrats
secured control of both houses of Congress, signaling a momentous power shift, and Nane\
Pelosi became the first-ever female and first-ever Californian Speaker of the House. In a
dramatic turn of events, Defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld stepped down in November, that

IN THIS HI-TECH world that we currently find ourselves, it is hard to imagine that just a little
over ten years ago the internet was still a fairly mysterious and unknown entity and cell phones
were still large and clunky plastic devices that looked more like walkie-talkies than anything
else. We used computers to type essays or to magically talk simultaneously with multiple friends
through AIM, MSN Messenger, or even ICQ and excitedly picked our first screen names. 2SK.
56K and DSL seem like a lifetime ago. In this rapid-fire growth that our generation has influ-
enced, Boston College has done its best to keep up with technological evolutions. With inter-
net, television and telephone ports for each student within a room, and Tl wireless capabilities
throughout the campus, students can be connected whenever and wherever they choose. BC
recently eliminated its own student phone plan in an acceptance of the dominai
phones. Over the last few years, students have been able to tl

ONE HUNDRED FORTY-FOUR years ago on
September 5, 1864, twenty-two students and
three teachers stepped through the doors of a
small institution on Harrison Avenue in Boston's
South End. With an emphasis on the Greek and
Latin classics, English and modern languages,
and philosophy and religion mixed with an
exclusively liberal arts education, Boston Col-
lege has changed throughout the years. With
its relocation to Chestnut Hill in 1909, the
acquisition of the Newton Campus in 1974 and
the newest addition of the Brighton Campus in
2004, the University has become a new entity
in itself. From its humble beginnings as a class
of twenty-two BC has become the second larg-
est private school applicant pool in the nation
with a record of nearly 29,000 applicants for the
class of 2011. With over 1400 different courses
in nearly 50 majors and concentrations, 23
interdisciplinary programs, 4 preprofessional
programs and international study-abroad pro-
grams in 32 countries, the academic integrity
present at Boston College is hard to find else
where. And yet for its great achievements over
the last near century and a half, the University
continues to look ahead. The 10 Year Master
Plan intends to connect the Brighton prop-
erty to the current campus and to expand arts,
sports and student life facilities for future gen-
erations in its tradition ever to excel. Myra Chai

Dear Friends in the Class of 2007,
You are graduating from Boston College at an exciting and challenging
time. You have witnessed the tragedy and aftermath of the events of September
11, 2001, a controversial war in Iraq, a hurricane that devastated one of America's
great cities, and an abuse scandal that has roiled the Catholic Church. Future chal-
lenges, domestic and international, await us all.
I hope that your four years at Boston College have prepared you to look
forward with confidence, well trained to make your contribution to an often
troubled world. Our broad Core curriculum has taught you to look at issues from
various perspectives, and the intense focus in your major has shown you what we
know, and even more importantly, what we do not know in a particular field. You
have learned to think critically, to write persuasively, and to appreciate the many
dimensions - legal and ethical, political and historical, economic and scientific
- of the complex issues we face.
Education is a gift - an expensive gift - one that I hope you will use not
only to enjoy the many options you now face, but also to help a society that needs
the skills you now possess.
This is my last of eight wonderful years as the Dean of the College of
Arts and Sciences. I have enjoyed working with our outstanding faculty, admin-
istrators and staff who are so dedicated to making this university a supportive
and challenging home for our students. We have chosen careers at Boston Col-
lege because of the opportunity to interact, year after year, with the best and the
brightest - and that's you!
Please stay in touch with your teachers and mentors on campus, who will
continue to take great pride in your accomplishments. Drop us a line when the
Muses strike. I hope that you will remain engaged with the university, which was
built with the enthusiastic support of prior generations of Boston College gradu-
ates. Go forth, but come back, soon and often.
Sincerely,
Joseph F Quinn

WITH AN UNDERGRADUATE population of 2,034 repre-
senting 78 different countries, the Carroll School of Man-
agement is one of the four schools in Boston College. CSOM,
like the rest of the schools, offers a wide range of academic
opportunities. There are six degrees to choose from and
earn, namely a Bachelor of Science in Management, a
Master of Business Administration, a Master of Science
in Finance, a Master of Science in Accounting, a PhD in
Organization Studies, and a PhD in Finance. Students who
aim to graduate with any of the degrees undergo a vigorous
and challenging four-year academic plan during which sev-
eral requirements have to be met. Fulton Hall is the center
of CSOM. Equipped with wireless Internet access and top-
notch class technologies, the building is definitely one of
the most high-tech on campus. It also offers three com-
puter laboratories available round the clock, and an Honors
Library, both excellent study areas and learning centers.
The Student Lounge provides a relaxing space for students
to unwind, work on assignments, and chat with professors.
There are also a variety of organizations and clubs that
are linked to the School. The CSOM Honors Program is a
student-managed organization that provides undergraduate
students with more intensive courses and more opportu-
nities for leadership and service within the Program. The
CSOM Student Government provides a medium through
which students can voice their opinions and a chance to be
involved in the daily running of the School. Vincent Sill

To the Class of 2007:
Congratulations on your graduation and on your many accomplish-
ments here at Boston College. The faculty and staff join me in thanking you
for your contributions to making our school a better place, and we wish you the
best in your future endeavors.
In many ways, you may not feel like the same person you were when
you first arrived at the Heights. Indeed, for most of us, our college years at
Boston College were a time for reflecting, redefining, and discovering our-
selves. \bu have met new friends, learned new ways to think about the world,
had new experiences, and discovered interests, talents, and aspirations you may
not have known you had when you arrived at Boston College. Yet, in impor-
tant ways you are the same individual who first came here. You have perhaps
matured, grown, and added new layers of experience, but you are still the same
unique bundle of talents, the same inner self, and we thank you for sharing
what is uniquely you with us.
In the years to come, you will all need to keep redefining yourselves
as your careers and families develop and as business and other daily activities
change in ways that we can't even imagine now. Learning as a lifelong skill
will play a fundamental role in your continued development and success. Yet,
while change is inevitable, you will always be able to manage it by drawing on
the same talents and values that have served you well here at Boston College.
Indeed, we hope we have helped you develop those talents and values to enable
you to deal with future change in thoughtful, constructive, and creative ways.
Just as you will need to keep redefining yourselves, so too will Boston
College. While the nature of the educational process will inevitably evolve, Ifri
confident that Boston College's inner self, the shared values and community spirit
that you have come to know and love here, will remain unchanged. Despite the
surface alterations, I believe you will always recognize Boston College when you
return to visit, and I hope that you will do so often.
Best wishes,
Andrew C. Boynton

Dear Members of the Class of 2007,
On May 21, 2007, you will begin a new and exciting phase of your life,
as alumni of Boston College. You will join nearly 150,000 living alumni of the
University; I have no doubt that you will enhance that proud legacy.
Four years ago you arrived at Boston College with impressive records
of achievement. During your time on the Heights, you have had a privileged
opportunity to ponder important questions about the world, about yourself and
about God. I hope that you have developed a habit of critical inquiry that will last
a lifetime. I also hope that you have come to a greater appreciation of the gifts
you have been given and that you are resolved to put those gifts to work for the
common good. The world needs your intelligence, your compassion, and your
dedication.
Members of the Class of 2007, rich in talent and full of potential, I know
that you will continue the best traditions of alma mater. You make us proud!
God Bless you all.

ON JANUARY 27. 1947. THE Connell School of Nurs-
ing was founded. This followed a request from Car-
dinal Cushing who desired to see a baccalaureate
nursing program established in a Catholic institution
in Boston. Boston College responded, and in 1958
established a Master's program. In 1988, it became
the only nursing school in Boston to offer a doc-
toral program. Yet despite its achievements in the
post-graduate level, the school continues to focus on
the development of the undergraduate that is rooted
in the liberal arts as well. The CSON mission is to
prepare professional nurses whose practice reflects
a humanistic ethic and is scientifically based, tech-
nically competent, and highly compassionate. In the
medical field and as nurses, students will be life long
learners, using what they know to serve others. With
approximately 230 undergrdaute students, it remains
the smallest of the four majors schools and with an
increasing overall nursing shortage throughout the
nation. CSON prepares the experts who will edu-
cate future generations of nurses. The school offers
programs in the departments of Adult Health, Com-
munity Health. Maternal Child Health and Psychi-
atric-Mental Health that enables nursing students to
focus on whatever specialty they desire. Anilu Isiumi

Dear William E Connell SON Graduating Class of 2007:
Congratulations to all of you on your graduation, and thank you for the
many contributions you have made to this school during your time here. Much
has happened in the world during your four years here, and nurses have played
major roles in responding to terrorism and natural disaster. We know that you too
will use your talents and your Boston College education to meet the needs of our
country and the world.
You are entering the health care field at a challenging time. Currently,
there is a national RN vacancy rate of 8.5%. More than 1.2 million new and
replacement nurses will be needed by 2014. The positions created will account for
two-fifths of all new jobs in the health care sector. Recent research has demon-
strated the crucial role that well-educated nurses play in providing safe and effec-
tive care. Improved patient outcomes and decreased mortality have both been
shown to be associated with better educated nurses and adequate nurse staffing.
There is a great need for nurses prepared at the graduate level. We expect most of
you will go on for graduate degrees to become specialists in providing advanced
nursing care to your clients, and scholars who will increase the theoretical base
of the profession.
As graduates of the William F Connell SON, you have been extremely
well prepared for the current evolving health care system. Your program,
grounded in the liberal arts and in the Jesuit tradition of excellence in service
to others, was designed to produce graduates who apply honed critical thinking
skills to clinical decision-making. You will certainly rise to the challenges and
bring the Boston College tradition and spirit to all you do.
May God continue to bless you, your parents, and loved ones, as you
leave Boston College to commence the next phase of your life.
Si ncerely,

OFFERING THE ATMOSPHERE of a small college within
the environment of a large university, the Woods Col-
lege of Advancing Studies is a dynamic extension school
at Boston College. Placing a heavy emphasis on unique
individuality and personalized attention, the Woods Col-
lege relies largely upon positive classroom discussion and
interaction between faculty and students. Offering a flex-
ible, broad-based curriculum, the Woods College allows its
registrants to begin studying for an undergraduate degree
or complete a degree initiated at other institutions. In this
respect, students will more than likely choose courses
and tracks of study reflecting their individual interests.
Degree candidates in the Bachelor of Arts Program,
a highly revered division within the Woods College, must
complete a minimum of thirty courses with at least a C
minus cumulative average. All bachelor programs require
seventeen core courses in the humanities, social sci-
ences, mathematics and sciences. Such diversity of subject
matter is crucial, for it allows for venturesome post-gradu-
ate possibilities in communications, corporate systems,
criminal and social justice, information technology, the
humanities and the social sciences. Drawing upon tech-
nology's pervasive role within society, the Woods College
offers an even broader experience through the Corporate
S\ sterns major. By exploring the corporate world of non-
profits, social agencies, and criminal justice, the major
helps students develop management and policy analysis
skills necessary for personal success. Michael Tuntevski

To the Class of 2007:
Great joy and accomplishment are yours as you celebrate graduation. You have
achieved what you dared to dream. The talent, commitment, and optimism you
brought to studies will now be advanced in different directions, shared in new
ways.
You face a new world. Unknown challenges now widen your horizons and
demand a clear sense of mission. This world community invites your vision,
vitality and vigilant empathy for others. You are prepared to question, to seek
answers and to respond. You have anchored your knowledge, convictions, and
attitudes in a commitment to others which is the essence of moral engagements.
Life's many changes will now always be examined in a defined context. You
cannot ever leave behind what now enlightens your dreams.
Your imagination and initiative link you today with distant continents and
disparate cultures. Your talents and many gifts call you to connect the world's
communities and carve a future of freedom and peace.
You own the greatest human freedom: to choose your own attitude in any given
circumstance. To secure your opinions under extreme conditions when there is
no chance of changing them is the highest expression of personal autonomy.
For seventy-eight years, graduate of the Woods College of Advancing Studies
have gone forth into a world of upheaval to advance the noblest human cause:
freedom and moral concern for others. Seize every opportunity with wisdom
and optimism. Make learning a lifelong goal. Respond to the compelling chal-
lenges with understanding and enthusiasm.
Prayerful wishes for all the years ahead

Libraries
TODAY THERE ARE over 10 libraries and centers including O'Neill Library, Bapst Art Library, and Burns Library
The main research library that is located on main campus is O'Neill Library which contains over 1.3 million volumes
and many other resources for students and staff. This library was named for Thomas R O'Neill who was of the class
of 1936 and the former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. O'Neill Library also houses other centers and
facilities such as the Media Center, the Connors Family Learning Center, and the Thomas R O'Neill. Jr. exhibit. Bapst
Library is one of the special branches of Boston College Libraries and is one of the original buildings on the campus
sharing in its overall history. The library was named after the first president of Boston College. Father John Bapst. The
building has distinctive architecture and stained glass. In the mid 1980s the books from Bapst were moved to O'Neill
after a much-needed restoration, and the north end of the building became a separate library. Burns Library of Rare
Books and Special Collections. In 1993 the art books in O'Neill Library were moved to Bapst. and then Bapst became
the art library of the University. There is also an opportunity for students to showcase their artwork in the Bapst Stu-
dent Gallery, when the Art Club sponsors events. BurnsLibrary houses the University's rare books, special collections,
and archives. It holds over 150,000 volumes. 15.000.000 manuscripts, and various important collections. Anita Isama

Jesuit Tradition
Article by: Anita Isama. fhotos by: Carol Ogonowsbi, /V\yra Chai, & Dob AActlrath
ABOUT HALF OF the 111 Jesuits living
on campus are active in the University's
faculty and administration, 20 are from
foreign countries, and 27 are graduate
students. Jesuits contribute to all aspects
of University life by teaching, holding
administrative appointments, offering
spiritual guidance, Ignatian retreats, extra-
curricular programs, and more. Boston
College is one of the largest Jesuit com-
munities in the world. This community is
committed to upholding and maintaining
the University mission and developing the
students whole person in the Jesuit Ideal.
Through taking core classes that include
the arts, cultural diversity, history, litera-
ture, mathematics, natural science, philos-
ophy, social science, theology, and writing,
students fulfill a well-rounded Liberal
Arts curriculum focused on critical think-
ing. Students are exposed to subjects that
influence their intellectual, personal,
ethical, and religious formation. BC offers
many courses and programs that address
Jesuit values including PULSE and Per-
spectives programs; the Capstone courses;
the Faith-Peace and Justice undergradu-
ate minor; the School of Educations focus
on urban schools; the ethics courses in the
undergraduate and graduate programs of
the Carroll School of Management; and
the efforts of the Law School to integrate
legal ethics, jurisprudence, and a clini-
cal program that serves the poor. Aside
from attending to the academic needs of
the students, Boston College offers vari-
ous opportunities to experience Ignatian
ideals outside of the classroom. Student
groups such as the Ignatian Society, Salt
& Light, and faith-sharing group CURA
enable students to explore what these very
ideals can mean for them and their spiri
tual journey. Students are also very active
in service groups such as 4Boston, Loyola
Volunteers, and more that take them intj
neighborhoods near and far from th
campus. Appalachia Volunteers, Urban
Immersion trips, and the Arrupe Interna
tional Program offer students the opportu
nity to serve and learn about others aroun
the country and globe. With the Jesuit
Catholic tradition as its foundation, Bosto
College unites high academic achievemen
with being "men and women for others."

Internships & Careers
THE COLLEGE LIFE does not last forever. Whether through flyers, EagleLink emails or the constant remind-
ers of career fairs, it is hard to ignore the impending prospect of a job. The Career Center actively guides mem-
bers of the Boston College community through their four undergraduate years to help them in their preparation
for the post-college world, whether it is in grad school or in an actual job. Its members provide assistance to
students, alumni and staff in finding internships and jobs and making career choices as well as holds work-
shops on how to create the best resume and how to interview properly. The Boston College Shadow Program,
offered through the Center, pairs students with an alumnus in their professional setting so that he or she may
better gain an understanding of the typical workday. The Premedical and Pre-Law programs also offer advice
on course selection, internships and research opportunities that can best help a student create a resume competi-
tive in professional school admissions. While the Premedical/Predental program provides help with applications.
MCAT studying and even a special partnership between BC and Tufts Medical School, the Prelegal program spon-
sors visits by law school admissions officers and a preparatory course for the LSAT. Boston itself holds a pleth-
ora of opportunities for students to hold jobs as well as internships throughout the year and many students do
take advantage of all that the city has to offer. It is no wonder, then, that by the time Boston College students
graduate they will have found supporting hands to help them transition into the post-undergrad life. Myra Chai

Study Abroad
THE STUDY ABROAD Program provides opportunities for students to integrate curriculum abroad with their
BC major, gain new perspectives on a variety of subjects, exchange ideas and information with people from dif-
ferent cultures, live in a challenging atmosphere that inspires both personal and intellectual growth, and increase
possibilities for future employment. Students can study in over 30 countries. Almost half of the Boston Col-
lege undergraduate community participates in some type of international experience by the time they gradu-
ate. An increasing number of graduate students are studying abroad and undergraduates also have the option of
studying abroad in the summer after their freshmen years. These valuable experiences could be in the form of
summer, semester, or a year abroad. To apply for any of the various study abroad programs students must meet
the academic requirements outlined by their academic dean and major department. Final approval comes from
the Center for International Partnerships & Programs (CIPP), the academic dean, and major department. All
applicants must have strong academic standing and motivation pertaining to their majors, maturity, and self-
discipline. The opportunity to study abroad is one that all students are encouraged to consider. -Anita Isama

Honors Progra
M
THE COLLEGE OF Arts and Sciences was founded in 1863 and is the oldest and lamest undergraduate school
of Boston College. The College also has one of the oldest Honors Programs in the country, which was started in
1958. It was started for superior students to challenge them to work to their highest potential, to provide a more
integrated approach to the core, and to further develop a more solid foundation for as they pursue more special-
ized studies within their majors. There are also Honors Programs in the Carroll School of Management, the Con-
nell School of Nursing, and the Lynch School of Education, although their requirements differ slightly from those
of the A&S Honors Program. With an annual incoming class of about 140 freshmen, these students generally
are in the top 5% of their high-school classes and have combined SATs in the range of 1450, marking them as the
top of their class. Students who had several years of Greek, founded literary journals, worked at interesting jobs,
or earned unusual recommendations from their high-school teachers are also considered. First-year students who
have strong academic performances can also be admitted to the Honors Program as sophomores, but need to be
recommended by instructors in their first-year courses. At any given time in the university there are approxi-
mately 600 students in the Honors Program. Each year, about 100 seniors complete their requirements and gradu-
ate with Honors standing whether through a senior Honors Seminar or through their Honors Thesis. Anita Isama

10 Year Pla
N
AS BC PLANS to reshape the landscape of Main Campus, students and faculty are curious as to what the con-
struction will entail. Marking the most ambitious construction project in BCs history, the blueprints to said
construction have recently been released to the public. According to the plan. Edmonds Hall will be replaced
by a state-of-the-art recreational complex. Additionally, the Mods are expected to be demolished within eight to
ten years. In turn, a brand new student center will be constructed on the current site of the Plex and the Mods.
Furthermore, a new dining facility and humanities center are expected to be built on the current site of the
McElroy Commons parking lot along College Road, creating a new quadrangle. In addition. BC plans to relo-
cate the McMullen Museum of Art from its current location in Devlin Hall to a newly constructed building on
the north side of Commonwealth Avenue. Attached to the museum will be a 1. 000-1. 200-person auditorium.
Fans of BCs signature gothic architecture need not worry, assures University President Rev. William R Leahy.
S.J., for construction will shy away from Middle Campus, the heart of B.C. These structural changes also change
the location of the T stop, making it more accessible to students. As this hefty endeavor is sure to be tremen-
dously expensive, it will require the largest fundraising in BCs history. The generosity of BC friends and
alumni will be indispensable in this process. If all goes as planned, these structural changes will supplement
BCs already eminent appeal, substantiating its place as one of Americas greatest colleges. Mike Thntevski

THE McMULLEN MUSEUM of Art is
located In Devlin Hall. It is nationally and
internationally recognized for organizing
and presenting multidisciplinary exhibi-
tions. These exhibitions not only attract
students and Boston area residents, but
people across the country and beyond.
McMullen is a center for both academic
research and distinctive exhibitions. It's
mission is "is to cultivate learning, cele
brate artistic excellence, explore the visual
traditions of diverse cultures, and inspire
faculty and student research based on the
visual arts!' The Museum also offers pro-
grams and performances that relate to the
current exhibit. The McMullen Museum
of Art also contains a permanent collec-
tion of art dating back to the nineteenth
century that the University community
has access to. This permanent collection
is growing through gifts and acquisitions.
The Cosmophilia exhibit contains 123
treasured examples of Islamic art from
the C.L. David Collection in Copenhagen,
Denmark. Cosmophilia literally means
y: /V\yra
"love of ornament" Instead of organiz-
ing the pieces of the exhibit by chronol-
ogy, place of origin, function or technique,
they are organized and presented visu- I
ally. This was to achieve an illustration of
how in the Islamic lands, artisans applied 1
for major themes of decoration. The term I
"Islamic art" refers to art made for the!
Islamic faith and for art created in lands I
where the Islam was the chief religion. In
this exhibition a full array of Islamic artl
is presented from its origins to modern I
times. The Cosmophilia exhibit was!
curated by Shelia S. Blair and Jonathan M. I
Bloom. The McMullen Museum of Artl
organized this exhibit in collaboration I
with the David Collection , Copenhagen. I
The Calderwood Charitable Foundation,
the National Endowmen for the Arts, and
the Patrons of the McMullen Museum also I
offered major support. The Cosmophilia I
exhibit was dedicated to Norma Jean and I
the late Stanford Calderwood and was sup- 1
ported by an indemnity from the Federal I

Scholarships
BOSTON COLLEGE OFFERS a wide range of Undergraduate Fellowships and Scholarships. These awards allow
winners to pursue personal ambitions and passions around the world. Previous recipients include modern-day lead-
ers in the arts, business, and politics, and many who have made their mark on almost all areas of human accom-
plishments. Here are three scholarships available to BC AHANA (African-American, Hispanic, Asian, and Native
American) students. The Asian American Scholarship is a partial tuition scholarship for senior year that recognizes
a junior annually for his or her academic achievement, promotion of Asian American awareness, and service to both
the Asian American and wider communities on and off campus. This scholarship was created in 1995 after proposals
from students, faculty, and administrators. As a tribute to the anti-racism efforts of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the
Boston College Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial Committee was founded in 1982, and the Scholarship award that
equals 75 'a of senior year tuition was started in 1990. This award is given to a student who exemplifies the charae
teristics and commitment of Dr. King, one who shares his dream of social equality and justice. The Boston College
Oscar A. Romero Scholarship recognizes each year a junior who has shown academic excellence and possessed an
outstanding record of community service at Boston College or other off-campus communities. This scholarship was
created in honor of t lie achievements by El Salvador Archbishop Father Oscar Romero, who symbolized Christian love
and solidarity and provided a source of strength and hope for the poor and the oppressed in his country. Vincent Si u

Academic Diversity
BOSTON COLLEGE IS neither a college nor is it in Boston. Behind its seemingly straightforward name exists
four colleges and more than 50 majors. With about 9,000 undergraduate students from all 50 states and over
66 countries and territories, the diversity present on campus is astounding. Not only do interdisciplinary
majors and minors exist within each school, but students from each college are also encouraged to branch out
and explore new courses within the four different schools. Recently as well, the school has seen an increase in
options with the latest addition of the Jewish Studies minor. What ties students together, however, in the face
of all this diversity is the 15-course core requirement, irregardless of school, that every Boston College gradu-
ate must complete to ensure a foundation in the arts, socials sciences, natural sciences, philosophy and theology
among others. Victimology and Forensic Science have proven to be popular courses for non-CSON students with
leading specialist Prof. Ann Burgess as well as has Principles of Economics/Macroeconomics with Prof. Richard
Tresch for non-Economics majors. For those interested in a career in the medical field in the future, the univer-
sity offers the opportunity to be a non-science major within the Premed program. What Boston College offers
is a place where Studio Art and Chemistry majors, Finance and International Studies majors and students from
any academic background can mix with ease to create an environment that is hard to find elsewhere. A/\ ra ( Tiai

thing more or was it the way we saw injustice
in our own community and rose to challenge
it? Boston College has defined us, whether in
our first or in our four years at the University.

classes for moving in, which consists of checking in, get-
ting room codes, signing papers, and meeting their new
RAs. Freshmen finally meet their new roommates for the
upcoming year, while many upperclassmen reunite with
friends they have opted to live with. Once everything has
been unloaded, its time to finally unpack. Students utilize
their space wisely by putting all their clothes into dressers,
under-the-bed containers, and closets, making their beds,
and setting up their laptops and electronics. Students enjoy
decorating their room with posters, pictures, calendars.
etc. Once they are all moved in and settled, it is time for

C "X THEN THE SMELL of grilled hot dogs, hamburg-
\/\/ ers, and sausages is in the air, it must be a special
T T time of the year: tailgating season. Flocking
rom many different parts of the country, as well as from
n campus, Boston College Superfans of all ages come in
nticipation of the home football games. Tailgating, which
5 allowed in the William J. Flynn Fund parking lots and
hea Field, is an ongoing tradition shared with family and
riends. Since being admitted into the ACC, lines to gain
ccess to all the excitement have resulted in longer waits, but
is definitely worth it. Generally, campus parking lots and
hea Field open two to three hours before the game begins
nd close two hours after the game. To ensure a good turnout
t kick off, tailgaters are asked to enter the stadium about
thirty minutes prior to the start of the game. Amongst
the sea of bright yellow Superfan t-shirts are a sizeable
amount of alumni who show tremendous support for their
alma mater. Many familiar faces are seen from game to
game, decked out in their BC attire. The intermingling of
current and previous Boston College students is an amaz-
ing experience since there is an immediate bond created
because of the similar interest of rooting for our ver\ o\\ n
Eagles. Pre-game festivities, such as contests, giveaways,
and lots of eating, allow the crowd to get pumped up for
the football game. During this time, the contagious energ)
just exudes from the fans. Smiles, laughter, and all-around
good times are had. It is a season to eat, drink, and be
merry. All in all, friends that tailgate together, stav together!

CONVOCATION
oy
ON MONDAY. SEPTEMBER 18, 2006 the
Class of 2010 at Boston College came together
under one focus: Senator John McCain. The
Annual First Year Academic Convocation
proceeded with a class barbeque and the First
Flight Procession, a torchlit walk through
campus beginning at Boston College's main
gate and ending at Conte Forum. This annual
tradition represents St. Ignatius Loyola's
motto "Go set the world aflame!' The walk
is done to commemorate the matriculation of
the incoming class, where students take the
same walk as they will when they graduate.
The Arizona Senator John McCain greeted
enthusiastic students near Conte Forum as
freshmen from all dormitories were brought
together into one unifying body. Through-
out the sea of students in the stadium, all
eyes were focused on the greatly anticipated
speaker. McCain suitably addressed the new
class with a message to "hear the voice in
your own heart" and to "make history!' The
former prisoner of war reflected upon his
past experiences while held captive in the

ONE DAY A year the Dustbowl is packed with tables,
students, and signs. Student Activities Day is a mas-
sive welcome to incoming freshmen and returning
students, with each club and sport vying for attention. Amid
shouts offering free candy. BC student swarm the tables,
asking questions, and signing up for listservs. Throughout
the day. there is a steady stream of wanderers walking up the
lanes of posters, and a constant rotation of club representa-
tives. Perhaps a little overw helming, the hubbub displays the
great variety of activities on the BC campus, as well as the
immense participation of its student body. From the rugby
teams large tent to Stitch's display of beautiful crafts, there is
a club for nearly every pastime imaginable. Extracurricular
activities are perfect for exploring opportunities, furthering
old hobbies, and discovering new passions. Clubs are open
to all classes, with many seniors beginning a club for the
first time, and other students staying in the same activities
for all four of their college years. It is easy to make friends
through activities as well. Student Activities Day provides
great access to the campus's sports and clubs, and the op-
portunity to get involved in the BC community.

CELEBRATING DIVERSITY, THE AHANA Lead-
ership Council (ALC) held their annual boat cruise
on Saturday, September 23rd, 2006, and it was defi-
litely a night to remember. Once again, tickets were sold
)ut this year, which reflects the continuing popularity of
he event. Students, administrators, and faculty enjoyed the
ncredible evening aboard the Spirit of Boston, which sailed
tlong the Charles River after leaving from Boston Harbor.
Complete with good music and tasty food, the ALC boat
ruise allowed its attendees to party until the wee hours of
he morning. Being a semi-formal dress-to-impress event,
tudents were able to socialize with others from different
:ultures and races. Guests were greeted by three stylishly
lecorated floors, two of which were dedicated to dancing.
The outside view on the decks of the ship was absolutely
breath-taking, for the gleaming Boston skyline added the
perfect touch to memory-capturing pictures. The sparkling
stars, the glow from the water, and the mingling of friends
created a magical experience that all could share. The
AHANA Leadership Council prides itself on recognizing
the importance of diversity at Boston College and strives to
make improvements toward equality among all students,
regardless of race or culture. The fun-tilled night certainly
exceeded everyone's expectations. There is nothing more
enjoyable than being surrounded by good company which
the ALC boat cruise once again proved with its success.

COLLEGE DORMS ARE certainly a change from
the rooms students are used to having. However,
they learn to love their dorms and make them their
home away from home. The Upper and Newton Campuses
house mainly freshman in single, double, triple, and quad-
style rooms. College Road (CoRo) dorms provide living fa-
cilities for many sophomores in similar style rooms. Some
sophomores consider CoRo a less viable option, whereas
others enjoy the isolation from other upperclassmen dorms
in order to get their work done. Lower Campus accommo-
dates sophomores, juniors, and seniors in four, six, eight, or
nine -person suites, which include larger bedrooms, bigger
closets, private bathrooms, and common areas. The Mods
are restricted to seniors and offer house style accommoda-
tions for six people, which include private bathrooms, living
rooms, dining areas, and kitchens. Many dorms have an
array of study lounges, laundry facilities, cardio and work-
out rooms, and game rooms. Many juniors opt to live off-
campus in apartments or houses close to campus, and other
juniors go off to study abroad. However, students generally
enjoy living in dorms, experiencing student life for them-
selves. In turn, BC becomes its own tight-knit community.

FOR SOME, PARENTS' Weekend is a welcome dose of
home; for others, it is a reminder to be grateful for the
freedom college allows. Either way, the last weekend
in September is packed with activities for families and their
BC students to do. The campus teems with parents, sibl ings,
and students who assume the role of tour guide as they show
their visitors around Boston College. From the Pops on the
Heights Scholarship Gala (featuring the Boston Col lege Un i-
versity Chorale) on Friday, the football game Saturday after-
noon. Parents' Weekend Mass on Sunday, and the inevitable
dinners out in Boston, students and parents are kept busy.
Shuttles run to and from the Newton campus to allow easier
parking for parents, and tailgating before the game invokes
a carnival-like atmosphere. The extensive preparation for
Parents' Weekend promises a good experience for all. and
the perfect opportunity to show off BC's beautiful campus.
awesome football team, and great musical talent. This
weekend comes when the excitement of school starts to wear
off, and homesickness begins to set in: there is little doubt,
however, that once it's over, students are relieved to return
to regular college life, and parents exhausted!) go home.

THE AM AZING SOUNDS coming from instruments
and vocalists alike have the ability to impact the audi-
ence by allowing them to experience exactly what the
performers themselves are going through. Although playing
an instrument or singing takes many years of practice to
master, the hard work and long hours of practicing are very
rewarding. Concerts held by the University Chorale and the
Boston College Symphony Orchestra are great experiences.
Other popular concerts on campus are given by student per-
formance groups. Some instrumental and vocal ensembles
on campus are BC bOp!, The Swingin Eagles Stage Band,
and Voices of Imani. A Cappella Fest displays the talent
of the top vocalist groups on campus, which include The
Acoustics, BC Sharps, The Bostonians, Against The Current,
The Dynamics, and The Heightsmen. BC also offers much
smaller, informal concerts where independent musicians can
show off their talents. UGBC also puts on bigger concerts,
such as having Kanye West come last Spring. The Black
Student Forum brings up and coming artists to campus as
well. BC really embraces the fact that music is universal
by making it available to everyone.

W^T TANTING TO KEEP the tradition alive, the
%/%/ Undergraduate Government of Boston Col-
T T lege (UGBC) held the much anticipated annual
lomecoming Dance on Saturday, October 14,h, 2006. For
le second year in a row, it was held in the Mod Parking Lot,
ue to disorderly behavior in downtown locations, such as
'ark Plaza and Fairmont Copley, in previous years. Three
vhite tents were set up and consisted of food, drinks, and a
3t of dancing. Inside, tables were nicely decorated and the
'iitfet was overflowing with catered foods. Improvements
rom last year included an effective coat check system and
lore organization around the bar area. This year, students
yere made to walk through metal detectors as an added
ecurity feature. Making sure students enjoyed themselves on
the dance floor, the DJ supplied good music throughout the
whole night. With only 1.200 tickets available, the dance was
sold-out and left many students disappointed. Even though
the eagle ice sculpture that was present at the dance may ha\ e
reflected the cold temperature of the night, there was no avoid-
ing the sometimes blistering weather of Boston. However,
students made the most of the evening and took part in this
BC tradition. Many dancegoers looked forward to getting
dressed up, and experienced a fabulous night of socializing
and having fun with good friends. The evening seemed to have
gone quite smoothly, so it was certainly a success. Perhaps
moving the event on-campus would prove beneficial since,
after all, the Homecoming dance should be at our "home" BC.

EXPANDING THE HEARTS and minds of students
is one of Boston Colleges main goals as a Jesuit col-
legiate institution, and one way of doing so is through
speakers from a variety of backgrounds. From monthly
readings of Dante's Divine Comedy to Senator John McCain,
presenters from all walks of life are invited to share insights
to any number of students. Among this year's speakers were
Archbishop J. Michael Miller, on the responsibility of Catholic
schools in higher education, discussion on books written by
Mark Singer, Jill Lepore, and many others. Speeches ranged
from a presentation of "The Case Against Darwinism"
to Loretta Ross' discussion on "Racial Injustices Against
Women" showing Boston College's dedication to the diversity
of speakers. Boston College professors also form discus-
sion panels to open the floor to students in order to express
their views in a comfortable environment, delving deep into
controversial issues like racism and sexuality. With all the
events occurring on campus, however, it's difficult to make
many of the presentations. A valuable resource available is
Front Row, an online archive of videotaped speakers, which
is often utilized by faculty and students alike. The avail-
ability of diverse thought and new ideas is evident in Boston
College's commitment to widening its students' perspective,
and inviting speakers from a range of backgrounds is one
way of doing so.

THE GREATLY ANTICIPATED college life has
finally arrived for freshmen. Life has just begun
and there are numerous opportunities waiting for
these nervous and anxious students. After the grueling
admissions process of the previous year, freshmen enter
college after graduating and leaving behind their life at
home to create a new one here at Boston College. Many
students participate in the Freshman Welcome series, which
includes a boat cruise, lobster bake, and hypnotist - an
entertaining way to meet new people. They quickly settle
into their designated dorms on Upper or Newton Campus
and adjust to eating at the dining halls and getting around
campus using the shuttle buses. Students try to complete
their core requirements and some take classes oriented
towards freshmen, such as Perspectives or Cornerstone
Advisement Seminars. Freshmen learn the importance
of time management as exams and papers begin to roll
in. They also discover the various activities and organiza-
tions that BC offers. Freshmen year serves as a chance to
discover new passions and a new love for Boston College.

THE PROMISE OF sophomore year marks a dis-
tinct change in a students approach to university
life. Each person has begun to find their niche,
explore new activities, and branch out a little more both
within and outside of Boston College. Rooming with one's
friends is a huge advantage, despite the end-of-freshman-
\ear flutterings of the housing lottery. Not only are living
arrangements more in a students control sophomore year,
but so is their academic schedule: many core requirements
are fulfilled, allowing much more freedom to choose the
classes they want to take. Majors are also declared dur-
ing the second year of college, which for many can be
a difficult decision; "undecided" is a popular major for
freshman year, but that unfortunately cannot be continued.
Sophomores also have to begin making other important
decisions, li ke study abroad programs and housing for junior
year. Because many BCers don't have four years of housing,
they choose to live off campus junior year; thus real estate
in Chestnut Hill and Newton go quickly, and sophomores
must be on the ball in order to get reasonable arrangements.
Study abroad also holds a great deal of decision-making,
from choosing where to go and what programs through
which to travel, to whether or not credits are transferable.
Areas of study, location of international programs, and
housing are just a few aspects of sophomore year. There is
also the deepening attachment to friends, BC, and Boston
itself, and the exploring of these three, while working in
(and out) of school. Freshman year marks a traditional rite
of passage, but sophomore year adds an entirely new dimen-
sion to the college experience: comfort and a sense of place.

A FTER THE INITIAL shock that two years have al-
/ \ ready passed at Boston College, juniors are eager to
L X»make their remaining time worthwhile. Although the
lass is divided, since most students decide to study abroad
>r have to live off-campus, there are still many opportuni-
ies to have fun. Some students are having another exciting
ear living on campus. Others get a taste of the real world
^hen they start paying rent while living off-campus around
le BC area, such as on Comm. Ave, South Street, and by
Cleveland Circle. Finally being recognized as upperclass-
len, juniors also anticipate finally turning twenty-one,
^fiich is quite a perk for any college student, since they are
ow allowed into bars. Whether living off-campus, going
abroad, or staying on campus, new experiences will ensue.
Trying to complete major and minor requirements, starting to
consider graduate school, and preparing for senior year ma\
seem like an uphill battle, however somehow it always man-
ages to work out. Many juniors find themselves struggling
with the quest to find the meaning of life, but having a good
time with a great group of friends can help put their minds
at ease. Another advantage juniors have is good registration
times, and perhaps even getting a chance to live in the Mods.
After being thoroughly acquainted with Boston College for
two years, students should know all the ropes b\ now. Junior
year is a time to enjoy and to also focus on plans tor the future.

flown by since then. Moving into their
first dorm room, meeting their first
roommate, and having their first meal
at the dining hall are only a few of the
new experiences. Being forced to interact
with others and find new friends even-
tually led to lasting memories and good
times. New challenges arose as well as
adventures, such as venturing to Comm.
Ave, Cleveland Circle, and even Boston.
After settling into a new life at BC, stu-
dents felt more at ease, having made
friends and places to go. One can never
forget the football games and the energy
surrounding them. Wearing their Super-
fan shirts, the excitement of the students
during tailgating and in the student section
of the games, will always be remembered.
Going to college means growing up, which
is precisely what students do over the course
of four years at BC. Whether it means vol-
unteering or going on service trips, stu-
dents always make sure to give back to the .
BC community. Not only learning morel
about themselves, students also learn who ]
they aspire to be. With graduation rapidly
approaching, students are getting more
a taste of the so-called "real world!' Befoi
they leave BC to pursue careers or furtl
their education, however, they reminis
about all their memories of the four years!
spent in Chestnut Hill, their home away]
from home. All of the friendships made,
the places explored, and the experiences
had will forever be a part of them. B(
helped students find themselves, and they
will carry on the lessons they have learned
into yet another chapter of their lives.

FOOD IS AN essential part of college life. There are
four main dining halls at BC. The one that is known
to have the best food is at Stuart Hall over at the Law
School on Newton Campus. There a student can choose from
Nteak or chicken, with two sides, or even venture off to the
pasta table. The Rat is located in the basement of Lyons,
and is a popular spot to pick up a quick snack in between
classes. McElroy has two cafeterias, known as Carney's and
Eagles Nest. McElroy has the most variety out of all the
dining halls and is a popular choice for freshmen living
on Upper Campus; and if you're looking to get a sandwich
or salad, check out the Eagle's Nest. McElroy and Stuart
offer a variety of foods served daily. The best sandwiches,
however, are located at Hillside, at Lower Campus. There
you can get a warm Panini, with homemade chips and a
pickle. It's the perfect lunch for a studious BC student. And
last but not least, there is Corcoran Commons, the dining
hall located at Lower Campus. This is a popular choice for
upperclassmen, and has a good variety to meet a BC Eagle's
appetite. Feeling like dessert? The Chocolate Bar at McElroy
has a range of exquisite, chocolate -baked goods.

DIVERSITY
A
rticle
THERE IS SOMETHING almost tangible
about the appeal diversity has to students
researching colleges. Students from about
97 countries and all 50 states bring a wide
range of experience to the academic com-
munity at BC, and enrich the learning
experience of their peers. By presenting
knowledge of one's own background and
sharing that with others, students provide
BC with a rich cultural diversity that can
be tapped in any number of ways. One way
is through organizations celebrating cul-
tural diversity, such as the AHANA Lead-
ership Council (ALC). (African-American,
Hispanic, Asian, and Native American
students). While maintaining the roots of
AHANAs racial backgrounds, the group
invites students from all cultures to join
in activities year-round, like the ALC Ball
and the ALC Boat Cruise. Originally for
the Office of Minority Programs, the
name of the organization was changed
in 1979 to a less marginalizing Office of
AHANA Student Programs (OASP). Other

groups reinforce racial and cultural back-
grounds as well, such as the Asian Caucus,
Irish Society, Arab Students Association,
and Japan Club. Instead of creating cliques
based on race, these groups create an open
environment to appreciate different back-
grounds, and often collude to put on events
including students from a number of cul-
tures. A vast array of interests also finds
its place in BCs massive number of student
organizations. Often seen around campusl
are advertisements for different events, from
comedy groups to musical performances,!
rallies to speakers. Organizations provide!
a creative outlet for students, such as dance;
and fine arts groups, athletics, or musical
performance. The opportunity to experi-J
ence one's own culture on campus or enjoyj
the talents and backgrounds of other stin
dents is readily available to those who seelJ
it. BCs dedication to diversity is apparent)
in its willingness to appeal to those frond
all walks of life, reaching across racial
cultural, economic, and geographic lines.

Christmas decorations. These are signs of the stu-
dents" enthusiasm for celebrating the various holidays
throughout the year. The first holiday, Columbus Day, gives
students a break from the beginning of the semester and
gives freshmen their first threeday weekend. Walk around
campus and take a ride on the Commonwealth Ave bus on the
last day of October and you will see the creative and humor-
ous Halloween costumes students can create. Towards the
end of November, students get the chance to return home for
Thanksgiving and see their friends and family. The campus
becomes empty as students pack buses, trains, and planes to
commemorate this holiday. The Christmas Tree Lighting ii
O'Neil Plaza marks the beginning of the holiday season a
Boston College. Dorm rooms and doors are decorated witl
wreaths and Christmas lights, while the campus twinkles a
night with the beautifully lit trees. This also marks the begin
ning of finals and end of the semester. Students return horrn
for the month long vacation and celebrate religious holiday
and New Year's. The spring semester includes Marathoi
Monday, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day and Easter, whicl
are celebrated before the school year ends. These holidays an

C "X TINTER BREAK IS a much-needed breath of fresh
\/\/ air for all college students. After studying and
T T cramming for the stressful first semester finals,
tudents have a chance to return home or go on vacation and
ee their friends and families. Regardless of whether or not
ley work, students get to relax for a month without doing
omework or studying for exams. Some students take this
reak as an opportunity to have a unique experience and
tudy abroad. There are Boston College programs that allow
udents to visit many different countries and immerse them-
selves in a foreign culture. For those who are intending to study
abroad during the spring semester, they utilize this month-
long break to work, to purchase necessities, to spend time with
loved ones, and to make preparations for a soon-approach i ng
experience. Whether going home, st tidying abroad, or prepar-
ing to study abroad, students take advantage of winter break
as a chance to get away from the academic pressures of col-
lege. However, students eagerly return in January to a whole

NOTHING MARKS THE end of a semester better
than the impeding doom of final exams, which
affects college students even where. During finals
week, stress levels escalate mainly due to the fact that they
cover large quantities of material and are weighted more than
other exams. At this time, students are often seen heaving
their enormous backpacks stuffed with too many books.
Usually students end up with aches, pains, and stiffness
caused by the long hours of sitting in one place studying
extensively. Just thinking about the wealth of information
they will have to learn, memorize, and remember come
that week probably gives students a headache. The general
consensus is that they cannot wait for this week to be over
Coffee and other high-energy drinks are quite popular since
people tend to stay up later than normal. Many places tc
study are available, such as the ever-popular libraries, stud)
lounges, and even their own dorms. Some prefer to sit out-
side, weather permitting of course. Wherever the place ma)
be, students always find somewhere to dub "their" spot foi

BOSTON COLLEGE STUDENTS get to experience
true New England weather. The climate in this region
is known to be unpredictable. It can be sunny and
warm one day. but then rainy and cold the next. While many
people enjoy the four seasons, the hot summers, breezy au-
tumns, snowy winters, and warm springs, it may take some
time adjusting to for students from other parts of the world.
Checking the weather each morning is always a good idea in
order to prepare for the oncoming weather for that day. This
\ear. the weather has been extremely variable. The weather
was warm during the beginning of the year, mixed in with
cool, breezy days. However, the fall had extremely windy and
rainy days. The first major snow did not actually come until
February, but the temperature continued to change drastically
from 60 degrees to 30 degrees at night. This makes it hard
to plan activities with the ever-changing weather. Several
athletic games have been completely rained out, yet many
loyal Superfans return from the games soaked. The first
snow excites many freshmen, while others dread the long,
cold walks to class every morning. However, this years winter
was especially unusual for Boston since there was barely
any snow even in January. Each season allows for a wide
range of activities that would not be available anywhere else!

CELEBRATING DIVERSITY WITH glitz, food, mu-
sic, and dancing is what the ALC Ball is all about.
Held at the Copley Plaza Hotel, the ball invites
udents of any background to join in a beautiful evening
it. Not many students would forgo an opportunity to dress
? and eat a catered dinner, and the demand for tickets is
instantly expanding. However, if you are fortunate (and
itient) enough to have garnered a ticket, dressing up in
)vvns and tuxes is only a part of the fun: music and danc-
ig with friends are also strong draws. Run by the AHANA
eadership Council (ALC), the Ball exhibits a large variety
cultures, and is elegantly hosted in the hotels ballroom.
The wide-ranging appeal of the Ball in past years encour-
aged the Council to increase the number of tickets sold,
which shows Boston Colleges commitment to appreciat-
ing racial and cultural differences. Changing the name of
the event in 2004 from the AHANA ball to the ALC Ball
was also a move to expand desirability to those outside
of the AHANA community. BC even offers shuttles to
and from the Copley Plaza Hotel to encourage students to
participate, though little encouragement is needed! The
ALC Ball is highly anticipated every year, and this is a
testament to the dedication to diversity oi' Boston College.

id actresses come from the Theater and Communications

fesent to their peers, families, and professors. Some of the
jays performed this year included A Dancers Christmas,
le 1994 Pulitzer Prize winner Three Tall Women, and the
: udent-produced Custody Wars and Circles in the Sand,
arly in the fall, Robsham also housed the play 'An Experi-
lent with an Air Pump',' which sparked several discussions
on the ethics of science. Robsham also offers a side -stage
for smaller shows and black-box productions, allowing for
more intimacy between the audience and the performers,
with a centered stage and surrounding seats. Theater pro-
ductions present an opportunity for students and faculty to
leave aside their busy lives for a couple hours and appreciate
the arts. Students take advantage of the talent on-campus
by attending plays in Robsham, enjoying the efforts of other
students. In the tradition of BCs drive to excel, the depart-

IT IS A commonly heard expression that fashion is an
expression of one's individuality. Here at Boston College,
the trends reflect upon the colleges preppy reputation.
The Lacoste and Polo Ralph Lauren polo shirts continue to
be prevalent every year, regardless of whether the collar is
popped or not. Denim, ranging from American Eagle to Citi-
zens and Sevens, are commonly seen on campus. However,
leggings seem to be the rage for women especially this year.
They are often seen under miniskirts or extra long shirts and
sweaters, paired with boots or ballet flats. Boots of all sorts
of colors and patterns were also seen during the dreary, rainy
days. Many students try to wear flip-flops as far into the year
as they can. no matter how cold it is. In the winter, students
dress accordingly to the weather with their North Face ja(
ets and snow boots, including the infamous Uggs. The Nc
England seasons allow students to wear a variety of outf
that range from shorts and tank tops to winter coats, scarv<
and gloves. North Face backpacks continue to be popul

FROM LOCAL STORES to our very dining halls, many
students are employed either on or off campus to help
pay for college, or earn extra cash for take-out, shop-
ping, or a night out. While sometimes difficult, the skill of
balancing school, work, and extracurricular activities can
be rewarding, allowing a student to pursue many avenues of
interest. Some may find it easier to work on campus due to
transportation limitations, but there is plenty to do at BC:
offices, technology programs, dining services, catering,
and many others. Opportunities are abundant outside of
BC's campus as well. From surrounding restaurants and
retail stores, to businesses in the city, jobs are open to thos
who have time and the inclination to work. Internships arc
also available in Boston for a number of career choices, an
potentially offer a more relevant job for those interested i
their chosen fields. Valuable experience is also gained whil |
working both on and off campus, including time managu
ment, interpersonal skills, and improved and expande
professional abilities. Perhaps the job is only temporar |
or maybe it's a life -long career; whichever it happens to b«
students offer their skills to both the community and t

USUI
GOING TO SCHOOL at Boston College gives stu-
dents easy access to the popular city of Boston.
Conveniently located near the city's Green Line on
le T, students are able to take advantage of everything that
Boston has to offer. With a plethora of restaurants, museums,
ars, clubs, and shopping places, finding something to do is
ot very difficult and usually very fun. Students who are not
rom around the area enjoy going on the infamous duck tours,
*hich take them around Boston and on the Charles River,
llowing quacking to ensue. With the numerous historical
ites and people with the well-recognized accents, the city
5 full of culture. For students who want to experience this
irst-hand, they may visit the Boston Museum of Fine Art,
the Aquarium, the symphony, or perhaps see a play in the
Theater District. Since Fenway Park is only a few T-stops
away, many diehard Red Sox fans can visit thei r favorite sports
teams baseball field. Various other sporting events can also
be watched at local bars. No one can live in Boston and not
go to some places to shop. Whether it is Newbury Street, the
Prudential Mall, Faneuil Hall, Copley, or Park Street, there is
a place for everyone. Main students also like to explore the
vast diversity of food that is available. Bostons North End is
popular for first dates or even a group of friends wanting to
dine out. While there, stopping at Mikes Pastries for some
of the best desserts around is a must. With so many excit-
ing opportunities, students can never be bored in Boston.

SPIRITUALITY
Article by: Jacqueline jmyth fhotos by: Dob AAcOrath & David I rudo
TRADITIONALLY, JESUIT UNIVERSI-
TIES are known for their high standard of
education, both spiritually and intellectu-
ally. Boston College's "Men and Women
for Others" is along this vein: the students
that graduate from BC not only received a
strong education in the liberal arts, but are
also encouraged to grow in their spiritual-
ity. Regardless of faith, the spirit of giving
nurtured by a Jesuit education applies to
all students, many of whom fully embrace
this teaching through community ser-
vice. Groups like 4Boston meet weekly
to discuss experiences in volunteering
and create a self-reflection. PULSE also
adheres to this idea of self-reflection,
though in a more academic sense, encour-
aging students enrolled in the class to vol-
unteer at least ten hours a week. Campus
Ministry is a strong force within BC's
spiritual teachings, as well. Sponsoring
retreats that focus almost entirely on the
development of self, Campus Ministry is
dedicated to a student's spirituality. Pro-
grams occur at a variety of times, from a
"Busy Student" retreat, which is broken
into parts so as not to take up an entire
weekend, to Kairos, which whisks students
away for a weekend to an unknown desti- I
nation but with lifechanging results. Many
Jesuits are also professors, bringing a level
of spirituality into the classroom. To create
a base upon which to strengthen one's faith
and spirituality, one of the university's core
requirements is a two-term theology requi-
site. A student can choose from a variety
of Western and non-Western philosophies,
adding to diversity while searching, ques- i
tioning, and reinventing their own faith.
Yet another resource to students is the vari-
ety of Masses offered throughout campus,
allowing students to attend services when
their schedules permit them. Resident Min-
isters and Peer Ministers are also available
in students' own dorms. The emphasis oi
spirituality of Boston College students is I
unique to a Jesuit education, and time at BC j
imparts lifelong lessons regardless of faith

OVER TWO HUNDRED fifty clubs and orga-
nizations exist and thrive on Boston College's
campus. If in our quest to educate the whole
we have found that academics are not enough
and that campus life is indispensable as well,
we realize that it is in our extracurricular activ-
ities that we reveal and develop another facet of
ourselves. Boston College is unique in many
ways, but perhaps none more so than its clear
emphasis on service towards others. The largest
groups on campus, the Student Adm issions Pro-
gram, the Appalachia Volunteers Program and
the 4Boston Program, are all volunteer-based
and this fact alone is indicative of the nature of
BC's student body. Yet by no means are clubs
restricted to volunteerism; cultural awareness
clubs pervade the University and offer various
events throughout the year to exhibit the stu-
dents' talents. The AHANA Leadership Coun-
cil has emerged as the largest of these groups
and is the creator of the widely popular ALC
Showdown that had students waiting as early
as four in the morning and in the cold to secure
tickets to the quickly sold-out event. And still
yet, with clubs centered around government,
honors, leadership, music, art and performance,
political, preprofessional and academic, pro-
gramming, publications and media, religious,
service and sports, we find that the path has
been paved towards self-discovery. My in Chai

IF THE JAM-PACKED Superfan section in
Alumni Stadium sparkling with waves of
golden shirts during football games or the die
hard fans who wait in the rain and cold to be
the first to enter Conti Forum during basket-
ball games are any indication of the impor-
tance of sports at Boston College, it is hard
to deny that in the quest for self-realization,
sports are utterly essential. Whether it is the
Co-ed Sailing team that has established itself
as among the top three teams in the nation
week after week, the Men's Basketball team
that was preranked third in the country or
the Women's Ice Hockey team that cracked the
top ten, sports have not only become a foun-
dation of one's experience here at BC but has
affected the way campus life evolves. Superfan
shirts are among the most cherished posses-
sions that students receive from the Univer-
sity and they wear them proudly as they cheer
on their teams because in them they find a
bond among each other that is entirely dif-
ferent from the academic relationships they
form with one another. It is Laura Georges
bravely leading the Women's soccer team into
the NCAA Tournament, it is the Women's Field
Hockey team doing their best and ranking
ninth in the nation and it is each of us pushing
ourselves faster, harder and stronger than we
ever thought we were capable of. Myra Chai

ATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE
PLAYING UP A LEVI
DURING ITS INAUGURAL season in the Atlantic Coast Conference, Boston College met with
new competitors and challenges. No longer competing against the Big East rivals that the teams
had become accustomed to facing, the Eagles headed south to meet their new opponents. In
sports like football and basketball, the Eagles continued to excel, but the adjustment to the new
league did not prove easy for all of the teams. However, throughout the course of the seasons, the
teams all passed the all-important benchmark of achieving their first win in the ACC. While
many people both within and outside of BC were skeptical of their ability to compete in the
tougher league, these fears were quickly silenced as BC won games and solidified their position.
After a strong inaugural season, all of the teams hoped to continue their initial success and also
to build upon it and affirm their strength.

where players Kia McNeill, Jenny Maurer, and
Brianna Wilson-Byrne displayed strong per-
formances. In a high pressure ACC match-up,
the women's team upset number twelve ranked

MEN'S SOCCER
KICKING OFF IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
FOLLOWING A DISAPPOINTING 2005 season, the
mens soccer team looked to rebound and improve on
their previous season. In preseason polls, the Eagles
were predicted to finish eighth in the ACC. After losing
their season-opener, the Eagles rebounded with a sev-
eral victories, including its first-ever ACC win when they
defeated Virginia Tech 2-1 in overtime. Senior Sam Brill tied
the game in the second half and junior Sherron Manswell
netted the winning goal in sudden death overtime. As the
season continued, junior Charlie Davies emerged as the
team leader with many notable plays, including a hat trick
against North Carolina State. Davies' performance earned
him the ACC Player of the Week award. In addition to Davies,
Brill also had several key plays, including the first goal in
the North Carolina State game and one of the goals scored
against Wake Forest. Junior goalkeeper Chris Brown played
strongly in net throughout the season, helping the Eagles in
their pursuit of victory. The Eagles went on to defeat 2nd-
ranked Maryland as Davies became the ACC leader in both
goals and points. In addition to their impressive victories
on the field, the team also displayed their dedication to the
game of soccer by participating in Boston's annual celebra-
tion of Youth Soccer Month. The team finished the 2006
regular season fifth in the ACC, but lost to Maryland in
the opening round of the ACC tournament. At the end of
the regular season, Davies had broken the school record for
goals scored and was named the ACC Offensive Player of the
Year, and sophomore Reuben Ayarna was named to the All-
ACC second team. Although not predicted to excel during
the 2006 season, the Eagles were able to secure their first
conference win and prove that they belong in the ACC.

PACING FOR VICTO
THE 2006 WOMEN'S Cross Country
team had a memorable season. The
team opened their fall running schedule
in September with a third place finish in
the Boston College Invitational. They
won their next meet, the UMASS Invi-
tational, the following week. The Eagles
performed well in their meets over
the ensuing months, which included a
fourth out of 46 teams in the New Eng-
land Championships at the beginning of
October. The women placed seventh in
the ACC Championships but went on to
win the NCAA District 1 Qualifiers by
beating out 40 other schools. They fin-
ished 30th at the NCAA Championships,
which were held in Terre Haute, Indi-
ana on November 20. The runners were
led by senior captains Kathleen Smyth
and Jesse Mizzone. They were a young
squad, since freshmen comprised half of
the team. Head coach, Randy Thomas,
brought seasoned leadership to the team
in his 14th year. He was honored with his
second consecutive Northeast Regional
Women's Coach of the Year Award. The
runners also racked up numerous individ-
ual honors. Five of their members were
named to the NCAA Northeast Regional
Cross Country Team. Sophomore Mal-
lory Champa earned numerous accolades
including All-ACC team member, ACC
Per former of the Week, and All-Ameri-

MEN'S CROSS COUNTRY
AAAKING TRACKS TO SUCCESS
ENTERING INTO THE 2006 season, the mens cross country team had high
hopes and expectations. With returning veterans Mark Alizzi and Stephen
Walsh leading the team as co-captains, the Eagles looked to improve upon
last years performance. After a hard summer of intense work outs, top runner Pat-
rick Mel lea assessed this years team saying it was "the healthiest and deepest team
that we've had so far coming off our training, so everyone's looking really good!'
With ten promising young freshmen joining the group and the experienced leader-
ship of coaches Randy Thomas and John Mortimer the season looked promising.
After a fifth place finish in 2005 at the Dartmouth Invitation, third at the Quin-
nipiac Invitational, third at the New England Championships and ninth at the ACC
Championships, the Eagles saw room for improvement. This year's hard work paid
off as they finished second in the BC Invitational, third in the Iona Invitational and
moved up a place in the New England Championships, finishing second. The Eagles
ended the season with a seventh place finish at the 2006 ACC Championship in Vir-
ginia and hoped that this rebuilding year would allow them to continue improving.

\ear the team achieved a fourth place
national ranking in October, which was
the highest in the history of the pro-
gram. Despite opening with a loss, BC
rebounded with a win over Boston Uni-
versity, which would be the start of a five

to number one Maryland but went on to
win their next six games, including vic-
tories over seventh ranked Virginia and
fourth ranked Duke. The Eagles split
their last six games, losing the last two to
the University of Connecticut and Wake
Forest. They finished the regular season
record of 14-5 and 3-2 in the ACC. The
number seven Eagles earned the fourth
seed in the ACC Championships held in
Chapel Hill. The team lost to fifth seeded
Virginia and did not receive a bid to the
NCAA Tournament for the first time since
2002. The team will lose four important
seniors this year, but great talent will still
be present in the upcoming seasons. Five
members of the team were named to the
National Field Hockey Coach's Associa-
tion All-Region roster, four of whom were
underclassmen. Sophomore Bob Dirks
was also named first team Ail-American

VOLLEYBALL
SERVING UP THE HEAT
AFTER HAVING THREE players named to
the All-ACC academic team and earning the
2005 ACC sportsmanship award for the pre
vious season, the women's volleyball team hoped to
continue their success on and off the court. Armed
with new coaching staff, including assistant coach
Kristen Shockley. and a strong group of senior lead-
ers, the team was well prepared to kick off its second
ACC season. According to an ACC Preseason Volley-
ball poll. Duke was the team to beat. Starting off the
\ear with plenty of hype was senior Allison Anderson,
one of eighteen players named to the Preseason All-
ACC team and BCs record holder for digs in a single
season with 706 in 2004. Despite seventeen kills and
sixteen digs by Junior Kelsey Johnson, the Eagles fell
to Belmont University in their season opener. Boune
ing back, however, the team came together for a win
in the ACC opener against Miami. The Eagles saw
key victories against ACC teams such as Virginia
Tech and Maryland as a result of kills by Tori Thomp-
son and Dorota Niemczewska and sets from Brit-
tany Pierpont. Learning from last year's inaugural
season, the 2006 Eagles had their eyes set on victory.

American first team this August, the Eagles were
off to a great start. Macchis performance in the
2006 season (Atlantic Coast Conference All-Con-

this year. Highlights of fall season tournaments
included the 3-1 win against Vermont thanks to
solid plays by Amanda Klimczak and Savana Lloyd
and a 3-2 defeat of Harvard. By the Providence fall
tournament, the girls had improved from their 2-1
victories and defeated Rhode Island 6-1 with nota-
ble plays made by Savana Lloyd, Britney Thomp-
son. Amy Tunstall. Amy Obrest, Taylor Peyton, and
Renee Ramos. The tournament closed out with a
5-4 victory against longtime Big East enemy, Provi-

earned the win with three strikeouts and a three
run homerun in the fourth, respectively. When the
score tied. Britney Thompson and Ashley Obrest
brought the team back by hitting back-to-back
doubles. The Eagles defense performed flawlessly
and maintained the victory in the final inning with
three straight outs. With such a great start the fall

THIS YEARS BOSTON College
Mens Track team was led by
senior captains Mike Alizzi,
Christopher Caulfield. and Daniel
LaFave. The team also benefited
from the knowledgeable guidance of
head coach Randy Thomas and his
four assistant coaches. This marked
Thomas' 14th year as director of the
track and cross country programs
and his 19th year with the school. He
felt that the 2006-2007 squad had a lot
of strength especially in the middle
distance events. The teams spring
season was longer than that of many
other sports. Their first meet was
held at the beginning of December
and had the potential to go through
January when NCAA Championships
were held. Boston College had many
strong performances and members
of each grade excelled in their first
meet of the season, the Harvard Invi-
tational. No team scores were taken.
The next month, coming off Christ-
mas vacation, the team finished with
a 1-2 record in the Boston University
Quad Meet. They expected to have
continued improvement through-
out the remainder of the season.

WOMEN'S ROWING
STROKING TO SUCCE
THE WOMEN'S CREW Team
competes in both the spring and
fall seasons. Their rowers are
among the most dedicated athletes at BC.
Even when they are not getting up for
5:00 a.m. practices on the water during
their seasons, they continue to train and
lift weights throughout the winter. The
team races in events throughout the
country in eight and four person boats.
Boston College finished the 2006 spring
season with a fifth place overall finish
in the ACC Championships in Clemson,
South Carolina. It was the first ACCs for
the program. The novice eight did partic-
ularly well with a second place finish. In

Finals in the ECAC/METRO Champi-
onships which were held in Worcester.
The Crew team finished off the season
with a 13th place finish in the East-
ern Sprints. They were honored to have
senior Bridget Regan named to the All-
ACC team. Four of the rowers won the
Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association
National Scholar-Athlete Award. The Fall
2006 season saw the addition of another
strong class of rowers - 37 novice women
joined the team. The rowers competed in
three events during the fall season. They
opened with a great start at the Head
of the Charles in October. The team
entered boats in the Championship and
Club eights and fours. The Varsity Eight
finished within the top ten percent of
the winning U.S. National Team rowers
in the Campionship eight event. The
Crew team competed at the Princeton
Chases, where the fours' races were can-
celled due to high winds. Boston College
finished off the fall season in the Foot
o! the Charles at the end of November.
Three of the Eagles' boats finished in
the lop 10 with the Varsity Eight winning
their event. I he novice team was strong

ther improvement throughout the off-
season and into the 2007 spring season.

TAKE IT TO the Heights. There are words
and phrases that will remain with us for as
long as we can remember Boston College and
all that we have learned during our time here.
Lower. Maddies. The Mods. The Rat. Wednes-
day Kells, Thursday An Tua Nua, Friday Happy
Hour. Even if the Lower sign reads "Corcoran
Commons;' Maddies' reads "Campus Conve
nience" and The Rat no longer serves the fried
comfort food we've loved without guilt, their
names will always conjure the best of memo-
ries. Did you stay after the Maryland football
game and sing and dance on the bleachers to
one last round of "Build Me Up Buttercup" and
"Sweet Caroline"? Did you schedule your week
around Wednesday night at the Kells with every
senior at BC, Thursdays at An Tua Nua and
make sure to never miss Happy Hour at Rog-
gies, rain or shine? Did you stay up all night
with your friends to support each other during
hard weeks of school work? And finally, did
you refuse to acknowledge that the end of four
years at Boston College was fast approaching
and dance till midnight at Avalon with your
classmates? For the class of 2007, we have
become, and will always be, a family. We have
celebrated victories, we have stood silently in
vigils and we have marched together in defiance
of injustice, but more than anything else, we
have found ourselves in each other. Myra Chui

IN 2003, WHEN we first set foot on this
campus as BC's most competitive class
thus far, the war in Iraq had barely begun,
gas was cheap(er), John Paul II was Pope,
and the Curse of the Bambino had yet to
be reversed. In 2003, St. Ignatius Gate was
just a blue print, there was no fountain
in O'Neill Plaza, Conte Forum was still
referred to as Conte Morgue, and there was
no statue of St. Ignatius in front of Hig-
gins Hall. Now as graduating seniors in
2007, we have witnessed democratic elee
tions in Iraq, Red Sox Nation finally got
that victory they had been waiting for and
BC's landscape has totally changed. We
have left the Big East and joined the ACC,
packed the stands and cheered the Eagles
on to victory. We have waited in line over-
night in Conte Forum to get season hockey
and basketball tickets. We have seen BC in
the Frozen Four and witnessed a March

Katrina to study here and traveling to t

THE MODS

THE MODULAR APARTMENTS,
most commonly known as 'the Mods'
were built in 1970 during a dorm short-
age due to the increasing number of
students living on campus. They were
originally intended as temporary hous-
ing on the Lower Campus but a total of
forty-three modular apartments were
later built and placed in between Vander-
slice and Walsh Hall dormitories because
of their popularity among students.
For most seniors, the Mods are the top
housing choice during room selection
week. The Mods are a senior tradition,
providing six students the opportunity to
live in a townhouse style apartment with
a backyard and a patio. In describing the
Mods, Winson Liu '07 says, "The Mods
are almost like a sacred kingdom. A fence
surrounds intruders (underclassmen) from
coining in. We are the only ones on campus
with the privilege of tailgating during foot-
ball games. We can barbeque, play wiffle
ball, or throw a football around in the
backyard whenever we please. Living
the Mods is essentially the ultimate 1
style and fun that all BC students des

Sadly, the Mods will not last \h

SENIORITIS
Article by: Andrew Fudge
SENIOR YEAR HAS come and is rapidly on
its way out. Whether completing a thesis or
advanced research project, taking a senior-
friendly class schedule, or beginning work in
a chosen career path, the motivation to keep up
with academics wholeheartedly is not always
the top priority for a senior. As the year pro-
gresses, the balance between working on a
thesis, attending class, beginning a job, and
going out with your friends is often upset. If you
do a lot of work from Sunday through Tuesday,
it makes perfect sense that you should do a lot
of partying from Wednesday through Saturday.
Senioritis is not something unique to college
seniors. It was experienced by many of these
same students at the end of their high school
careers, and in the more severe cases, it was
also experienced during freshman, sophomore,
and junior years. There are no other points in
life when it is truly acceptable to tailgate in the
Mods and then go to a football game with your
friends or to "pregame" any event in life. Yet
Senioryear, which is marked by the dichotomy of
the daytime academic setting and Friday night
partying, suddenly gives way to the real
of constant work and paying bills. Little w

LIFE AFTER BC
Article by: Andrew rudge & trin KJewin
AS SENIOR YEAR begins, it seems
that seniors are already insanely busy.
Resumes pass from hand to hand and
ties attract the eye as seniors from A&S,
CSOM, CSON, and LSOE all scramble to
ensure that they have jobs waiting for them
when senior year finally draws to a close.
By September 21st, only a few weeks after
arriving on campus, these seniors stop in
at the career fair, in order to pass along
their resumes, find out important appli-
cation deadlines, and set up internships
for the academic year. Many of them
have already interned over the previous
summer, and are now looking for some
thing a little more permanent. Through
all of this turmoil and fear, the Career
Center is always there for seniors, offering
them career advising, alumni network-
ing, on-campus recruiting, internship
and career fairs, extensive online career
databases, and many other opportunities.
A common position for many seniors
at the close of four years of study is one
marked by uncertainty about the future
or life directly after college. Continuing
education at the graduate level has become
an extremely popular choice among recent i
graduates who pursue an even greater I
specialization in the topic they majored I
in at Boston College. The preparation '
that the university has offered its students ;
over its long history enables graduates to '
write dissertations and publish journals
in whichever study they pursue and to
work towards the prized doctoral degree
so valued in the current-day work world.
Still others will choose to take time
out to travel the world or enter the military.
Whatever paths these seniors choose, they
share many of the same hopes and fea
about graduating and entering the 'reai
world' for the first time. However, with tf
education and life lessons learned at Bostoi
College, the class of 2007 will without
doubt take on these new challenges as ambi
tiously as they did four short years ago when
they began their journey at Boston College.
Left: Many seniors prepare for a graduate education by taking the GREs. and Boston College offers prep
classes for the test; The Career Center helps seniors plan for the future through resume critiquing, career
advice, and interview opportunities. Above: Post-graduation, mam BC alums will enter the '"real world'"

CAMP US CRAWL
Article by:
WHEN WAS THE last time you sat down
with a professor and discussed a great
poem? Or visited the site of the original
Boston College campus? How about host-
ing a faculty gathering in your dorm room?
Boston College seniors got the chance
to do all of these things and many more
during BCs Campus Crawl, a week-long
scavenger hunt designed by seniors for
seniors during the last week in October.
For the Crawl, teams made up of 4-6 mem-
bers were given a list of clues and tasks
that they had to complete in order to earn
points. Total points were based on how
many tasks were completed, with more
points allotted for more difficult tasks.
Tasks ranged from meeting with alumni
to photographing things on campus begin-
ning with every letter of the alphabet.
Now in its third year, the Campus Crawl
not only gives seniors a reason to spend
time with their friends and attend great
events, but also affords them an opportu-
nity to reflect on their experiences at BC
and engage in conversations about their
trin Klewin
next steps beyond the walls of the uni'-
sity. The hunt allows participants to In

THE WEEKEND. A time to shirk respon-
sibility and forget about all that work you
should probably be doing. In fact, for
seniors who are finally 21, weekends are
so great that sometimes they begin a little
early, like on Wednesday. Luckily, when
Friday just seems too far away there is The
Kells, a BC senior staple bar on Wednes-
day nights. With two floors of uninhib-
ited dancing and popular music pumping
from the speakers it is no wonder the
Kells is so popular among BC students.
Even though Wednesday is the new Thurs-
day, Thursday is hardly forgotten. If The
Kells is the place to be on Wednesday nights,
An Tua Nua is Thursdays senior hotspot.
After a long week, what better place
to unwind than at Roggie's? A Cleveland
Circle staple, Roggies holds a special place
in the hearts of the Eagles. During the
week, Roggies is a great place to grab a
meal with friends, but when Friday rolls
a round everyone knows that Roggies means
happy hour. Friday nights start over pitch-
,
si

SENIOR CONSILIUM
Article by: trin Me
ARE YOU A senior who feels lost because
you do not have a clue as to what you want
to do after graduation? Are you some
one who has an idea of what you might
want to do but are still unsure if it's the
right decision? These are the questions
that college seniors have experienced
for years, but now have the opportunity
to address, with Boston College's new
Senior Consilium. Senior Consilium is
a three-part wine and cheese series for
seniors where they come together and talk
about their anxiety and eagerness for life
after graduation with their friends while
exploring their talents, interests and pos-
sible career paths. It also provides seniors
a chance to commiserate with fellow
seniors about the anxieties, fears and
excitement of life after Boston College.
Each Senior Consilium is run by a
member of the Senior Task Force, a group
of fifteen seniors who work together to
create memorable events and activities
for the senior class, as well as a faculty
co-host of their choice. It is sponsored b|
the Intersections project, whose goal
to help students understand the connej
tions that their intellectual and spiritiu
journeys are creating at Boston College
Each Consilium hosts from five to te;
seniors and incorporates the three ke
questions at the heart of Intersections: Wh;
gives you joy? Are you good at these thing,
Does anybody need you to do these thing
These questions aim to help students di:
cover who they want to become and hi
they want to get there. Seniors are given a
outlet to discuss their fears about the futui |
and life as a senior with others who sha
similar feelings, while getting to know
faculty member's perspective at the san
time. Overall, Senior Consilium providi]
seniors the opportunity to go on an intc
lectual and spiritual retreat without leavir
campus, and truly reflect upon their pos*
ble career choices, passions, gifts and jo>

CORNERSTONE to CAPSTONE
HIE
ALCHEMIST
Article by: Kaitlin Vigars
IN ARCHITECTURE, THE cornerstone
is an important component of a building's
foundation. At Boston College, the Cor-
nerstone Program, run by the office of
First Year Experience, is designed as a
foundation for students to better under-
stand their college experience. It is a
chance for students to get to know their
professors as well as themselves. Cor-
nerstone is comprised of several different
classes with a built in advisement seminar
that allows students to develop meaning-
ful relationships with faculty members.
The Cornerstone program allows stu-
dents to answer questions associated with
the transition to college. By allowing
for open discussion, students are able to
confront many of the issues that they will
face in their new role as college students.
By the time senior year rolls around
you probably have all the aspects of col-
lege life down pat. You've discovered the
secret to balancing work, school, friends;
you've resolved your interests and your
aspirations into a tentative career path.
Just when it all seems too easy, you real-
ize May is rapidly approaching and that
you are facing another huge transition, life
after graduation. You are filled with ques-
tions, just as you were as a freshman, that
short time ago. Luckily, Boston College
offers Capstone classes to help the gradu-
ating class avert their quarter life crisis.
Similar to the Cornerstone program,
the Capstone program allows seniors to
reflect on their time at BC and their plans
for the future. The goal of each Capstone
is for seniors to better understand thi
experiences at Boston College. In these
classes, offered in over twenty disciplines,
students are encouraged to think about
their undergraduate years as a whole and
to evaluate the impact Boston College hi
had on their lives. At Boston College, as in
architecture, the Capstone represents the
completion and culmination of somethin]
begun with the Cornerstone, as seniot

FRIENDS FOREVER
Article by: Natalie Raffol
SPENDING THE FIRST few weeks of
freshman year waking up with, eating with,
and going to class with completely new
faces can be intimidating. However, the
initial fears of living in a dorm and being
able to find a group of friends that you will
spend virtually all of your time with soon
pass. The situation transforms from over-
whelming to as natural as sibling rivalry
during the four years spent as Boston Col-
lege. We are no longer in our safety net of
friends that had been built since we first
started school so many years ago, and are
instead immersed in a sea of new people;
yet somehow from all the chaos we end
up with true lifelong friendships. Friends
not only share bathrooms, food, and other
material possessions, but ideas, memories,
and future ambitions, making these bonds
transcend superficial acquaintances. BC
students engage in all types of new activi-
ties with their new friends, from tailgating
before football games to pulling all-night-
ers during finals. These experiences make
tor long lasting relationships, which start in
a single freshman dorm room and end up in
a two-story mod. The faces that were once
strangers to us blend into every aspect of
our lives. As seniors, it is now the thought of
losing these faces in our daily routines that
makes our eyes water. The initial fear that
was felt as you first moved into your dorm
returns, except now it is the fear that you will
no longer see those same faces. At the same
time, however, you know these friendships
will not end on graduation day, but will be
cherished for a lifetime. The past four years
have seen friendships survive academic
stresses as well as social pressures, all while
everyone tries to identify themselves as indi-
viduals. Former strangers morph into life!
long friends, infinitely enriching our live
with their own diverse backgrounds and cul-J
tures. Although this is only the beginnin
of our adult lives, it is the end of an era, one
where we were able to make true friends to
journey through life with and share all that
Boston College has to offer. Although the
normality of seeing the same people every
day may be over, these friendships will last|
far beyond Boston College, always remind-
ing us of our four unforgettable years here.

graduation in the spring, main of these friendships will last far beyond the gates of Boston College.

Senior Perspectives
Class of 2007
Ten exceptional seniors were
chosen by their peers as those
who exemplify Boston College's
motto "Ever to Excel" and are
truly men and women for others.
Claire Lerchen
Claire Lerchen has been able to involve her-
self in many activities during her time at
Boston College. She has given a great amount
of time to Intersections, through her involve-
ment as a council member in the Senior Task
Force for vocational discernment. She also
was on the Halftime Council and led a retreat.
Appalachia has also been a part of Claire's
BC experience. She went on a summer trip
to Mississippi and plans to go on another
this March. Claire served as the committee
chair for research and development in the
Campus School as well as a reading buddy.
For her academic strength Claire is a member
of Golden Key, an international honor soci-
ety, and Cross and Crown, an honor society
for BC's College of Arts and Sciences. All
of Claire's involvement demonstrates how
her actions live up to her personal motto by
John F. Kennedy, "A man may die, nations
may rise and fall, but an idea lives on".

Alison Fahey
N ke Normant has always known he wanted
be a teacher. During the four years he has
>;n at Boston College he has actively pur-
»i;d this goal. As a history and secondary
Mcation double major, Mike has proudly
Hved as the president of the Lynch School
) Education Senate. However, Mike's com-
iirtent to children does not end with his
i< demic pursuits. As a volunteer coach of
Mh baseball and basketball teams, Mike
Bible to combine his love of sports with
passion for working with children. In
ti spare time Mike has also participated in
J's intramural softball league assuming
i role of both player and manager. Above
i though, friends say Mike is committed to
a rig a full life; "Everyday he has a goal to
H ve for excellence and seek God in all things
|r all of his activities. " Friends also note
*ke's enthusiasm and positive attitudes as
sinificant factors in Mike's achievement.
Alison Fahey has not let her time at Boston
College go to waste. Whether it is participat-
ing in the Undergraduate Student Govern-
ment or volunteering off campus through
4Boston, Alison has greatly contributed to her
community. Alison's most cherished accom-
plishment lies within her 4Boston experience
where she currently volunteers at the Suffolk
County House of Corrections. She has been
involved since freshman year helping the
residents acquire educational skills and even
earn their GEDs. In UGBC she serves as the
Assistant Director of Student Life allowing her
to branch out into all of her interests concern-
ing volunteer issues and student relations.
For her service and academic accomplish-
ments Alison is a member of the Cross and
Crown, an honor society in the School of Arts
and Sciences. All of these accomplishments
embody the epitome of what Boston College
hopes to instill in its students. Alison hopes to
take these qualities with her as she ventures
into the field of international relations and
development where her altruism and per-
severance will definitely allow her to shine.

Seniors
Clare Murphy
Becoming immersed in the many facets Bo^
College has to offer comes naturally to C
Murphy. She has deeply been involved in the !
dent Admissions Program as well as the Bo^
College Irish Society throughout her four year
BC. Clare has been able to hold leadership pi
tions in both areas, being on the council for
Student Admissions Program and as the Pr1
dent of the Irish Society. However, these are c
parts of Clare's involvement at Boston Colli

est in health sciences. She is vice presidem
the Mendel Society and was a participant in

papers on Ethics in Stem Cell Research and M>
cal Tourism. This year Clare was also invite<

time at BC to go to Medical School and evei
ally pursue international healthcare, bringing
hard work and determination out into the wc
Annie Le
Between student teaching at Boston's Urban Sci-
ence Academy and completing a double major in
Education and Math, it is hard to imagine Annie
Le has much time left over to devote to the various
organizations she is involved with. As one friend
puts it. "Sometimes she gives herself 25 hours
v%orth of things to do in a day, but she handles
it all!" In her time at Boston College, Annie has
won several prestigious scholarships and been an
active member of both the AHANA Leadership
Council and the Vietnamese Student Associa-
tion, where she served as Co-President during her
junior year. But Annie isn't all business; friends
know her best as someone who is friendly, out-
going and who loves giving people nicknames,
"its just something fun I do when I get bored,"
she says. As if she has much time to be bored.
Tad Ahlersmeyer
Tad Ahlersmeyer is the kind of guy who likes to
help people. In only four years at Boston College,
Tad has gone on six different service trips; once
to Guatemala and five times with the Appalachia
volunteers. Tad has been involved with the Appa-
lachia Volunteers at many levels, first as a partici-
pant, then twice as a leader and most recently as
a member of Appalachia council. He is also the
go-to guy for students experiencing technical dif-
ficulties. As the ResNet coordinator, Tad helps the
most stressed out students on campus, the ones
who's computer "like won't turn on, it like has a
virus or something!' As the head coordinator for
this program, Tad has also had the opportunity to
star in a short film used at orientation to inform
students about virus protection before it's too late.
After graduation, Tad plans to do service for a year
or two to continue in his spirit of helping others.
.Landa Denes has proven herself to be a valuable
5 1 to Boston College. She displays a passion for
Sing others, especially those in the minority,
iim may otherwise be overlooked. Amanda
it; her most cherished activity as her position
Oirector of Programming for GLC. She finds
fework planning events for this group especially
turding since she can sense the appreciation
hn by those involved. However, Amanda is also
hived in the UGBC programming department,
l:h plans other events on campus for students,
aanda is also working as director for The Vagina
liologues, a production that supports women's
fets, another passion of hers. One student exem-
l.es Amanda spirit by saying, "She has come
pe the value of offering education outside of
|:lassroom, which is a cornerstone of the Jesuit
:ation!' Amanda's spirit to raise awareness and
line interest in others is a unique characteris-
hat has lead her to be invited to the Scholar of
[(College program, which is designed to recog-
|| students who have performed outstandingly
I oston College. This will greatly help her as she
Ills on to grad school after completing her double
W)r in communication and women's studies.

Alanna Wong
Alanna Wong has boundless school spirit, "J
is that girl that paints her entire body for foott
games'' says her friend Jim Conti. Being a de
cated Superfan is not the only way Alanna she
her love for Boston College; Alanna exemplil
the precise excellence in which BC has staked
reputation. As an executive board member of
Residence Hall Association, a Halftime lead i
Cross and Crown marshal, she has spent the p i
four years striving to leave Boston College a bet
place than she found it. However, Alanna's 1<
for her community extends far beyond the ga
of Boston College. She spent two summers do
volunteer work in Jamaica on a Pedro Arrupe
vice trip, an experience that still stays with 1
After graduation Alanna plans to attend gra>
ate school where she will study internatio
affairs and complete more volunteer work abro .
Adrienne Andry
Volunteering has always been a prominent part
of Adrienne Andrys life, especially throughout
her duration at Boston College. Adrienne volun-
teered with 4Boston for all four years at the Com-
monwealth Tenant's Association, a children's after
school program. The CTA program, located in
Brighton, is where Adrienne travels 2-3 times a
week to help improve the city of Boston. This ser-
vice is especially important to Adrienne because
of her background, "I grew up in the neighborhood
and I was directly influenced by BC students who
came to volunteer at the CTA and I want to do the
same for the kids who are growing up in the com-
munity now!' Adrienne also devoted two spring
breaks to Appalachia Volunteers, traveling to
ipe Charles. Virginia on community trips. For
her service. .Adrienne was awarded the W Seavey
ce, SJ, Community Service Award. Next year
Adrienne plans to join Teach For America to teach
chemistry to middle school or high school students.
However, she h< o end up back in Boston for
graduate school so she can give back to the com-
munity that has given tier so much in return.

is she an avid football fan, but Caitlin exempli-
fies the Jesuit ideals of excellence in all she does.
For the past four years Caitlin has been involved
with the Appalachia Volunteers, lending a hand
to impoverished communities throughout the
Appalachia region. Additionally, she has served
on Appalachia Council for the past two years. On
campus, Caitlin has volunteered with many orga-
nizations, including Best Buddies, the Student
Admissions Program and the Quality of Student
Life Committee. Caitlins friends call her a true
"woman for others" as well as a mentor to her
peers. Through her work at Boston College, she
has shown a unique commitment to volunteerism
and scholarship. After graduation, Caitlin, an
English and Secondary Education major, plans to
pursue volunteer work with a Jesuit organization.

perspective winners of the
Class of 2007!

Clockwise from top: St. Ignatius of Loyola,

most modern in sports medicine facilities as
well as a BC Football Hall of Fame that pays
tribute to important figures such as Doug
Floutie. A welcome sight in the fall is the
flower-decorated BC sign behind McGuinn
Hall. Renovation outside Hillside Cafe has
been popularly received by students, who find
the cafe's environment extremely relaxing
and conducive to get-togethers with friends.

WHAT DOES IT take to make a yearbook?
While there is no one formula for creating the
perfect publication, there are certain qualities
that help determine its quality as a book. Have
the events of the 2006-2007 school year been
documented as accurately as possible? Has the
book been presented in an aesthetically pleas-
ing manner? For seniors, has it done justice to
your last four years at Boston College? And
for alumni, has it brought back memories of
your time on the Heights? It is easy to focus
on the ultimate product of a year of late nights
in the yearbook office and stressful deadlines
without remembering the importance of fund-
ing. As a 504-page student-run publication,
Sub Turri receives no funding from the Uni-
versity, but instead exists on the basis of book
sales and the generous support of its benefac
tors and patrons. Without such caring dona-
tions the Sub Turri staff would never be able
to afford advanced equipment to create the
national prizewinning publication that it is
renowned for. Your enthusiasm for our book
encouraged us to persevere through dead-
lines and to do the best that we could in the
hopes that you are now as proud of this book
as we are. This book, then, is dedicated to
all those who have supported us through the
year and especially to those whose names
appear on the following pages. Myra Chai

IN FIVE HUNDRED four pages we have
attempted to encapsulate the Boston Col-
lege experience for the last year. In doing so
we acknowledge that many events were not
included yet believe that those featured are rep-
resentative of what it meant to be a student at
BC We began the book with the world at large
then focused on our community and the events
that changed us for better or worse. Irregard-
less of opinions regarding the Iraq war it was
voted by the Associated Press to be the most
influential story of 2006. Al Gores 'An Incon-
venient Truth" affected us as deeply as did the E.
coli spinach scare, sending a chilling message
that we as a world community must care for
the environment or else suffer life-threaten ins
consequences. The McMullen "Cosmophilia"
exhibit brought visitors worldwide to Boston
Colleges campus to marvel at Islamic orna-
mentation from the David Collection in Copen-
hagen. The UNITY rally brought us together
against injustice in the hopes of creating an
environment conducive for self-discovery and
acceptance. And in the wake of Tom O'Briens
departure, Jeff Jagodzinski, offensive coordi-
nator for the Green Bay Packers and previously
for two seasons at BC, became the 33rd Head
Football Coach. In five hundred four pages,
then, we hope you have learned something more
about BC and maybe about yourself. Myru Chai

AFTER ALL THE work, the classes and the hours
spent in the studio, Studio Art majors finally real-
ize their gallery aspirations. In the major manda-
tory Senior Art Project, department head Professor
Andrew Tavarelli monitors the progress of his stu-
dents during "crits" on works appearing in each stu-
dent's final project, the culmination of which leads to
the student gallery in Devlin Hall in the spring. For
all the good times of Boston College, however, stu-
dents must eventually leave the Heights. The Career
Center continuously schedules fairs and workshops,
such as the Networking Bingo Night, to help stu-
dents transition into the post-college working world.

WE BEGAN WITH a question. Who are we now? Four years later, we hope that we have
come closer to answering it. We have discovered that genuine friendships throughout
our college career truly are possible. We have discovered just how far we could push
ourselves academically, physically and emotionally. The memories we have stored from
freshman year until now will remain with us forever. The way we tailgated in the Mods,
the way we built houses together on Appalachia, the way we immersed ourselves into
an entirely new culture while studying abroad, the way we played in two and a half feet
of snow one weekend in December our sophomore year, and finally, the way we walked
together for one last time as the class of 2007. Boston College has left an indelible
impression on each of us and for that we will always remember our years here on the
Heights. So we ask again. Who are we now? Maybe we still don't know. And maybe
that's okay. In the end, if we have learned anything of who we are, then it is because of
this: that we have cared for one another and have let ourselves be cared for in return.

Anita Is am a
I AM GRATEFUL for this opportunity to say thanks to everyone who continues to make this experi-
ence at BC one of a lifetime. Mom and Dad, thank you for supporting me with all that I get involved
with and for making it possible for me to be at BC. I have greatly benefited from the communities
that have developed in my life during the past year. They encourage me to not only take a more
active approach in meeting others, but to take an active role in knowing who I am too. I am so
grateful to the upperclassmen, especially the seniors, that have given advice and been there for
me. I was blessed to go to Guatemala with 15 wonderful people who I will never forget. While the
experience gave me a lot to process, I am more than ready to move forward in action because of
the strong community we formed. And to my room mates who continue to support me, thank you!

THIS YEAR WAS one of trials. Not only did I go into a new living situation first semester, but I took on
the Student Life section by myself. Although at times I was frustrated with the demands that came with
being a sole editor, I enjoyed designing and managing the spreads nonetheless. Once again I am so happy
with the finished product. Thank you to all my friends who submitted photos. I couldn't have done it
without you. I also want to thank my 305 girls for welcoming a stranger with open arms. Yall are a "hott
mess'' but you all helped me in more ways than you'll ever know. To my ex-roomie, Vanessa, thank you for
checking up on me with voicemails when Id be hibernating in the office, listening to my rants, staying
up late, watching Heroes, and just being the sister I needed. Myra, yearbook's not going to be the same
without you! You finally made it though, and I just want to express my appreciation for all your help for
the past 3 years with your talents, photos, advice, I Ms, and emails. Katie, our senior yearbook is going
to be awesome, especially with you as an EIC. Thanks for helping me out this year with photos. To my
sisters in 90511. even though yall try to play me and say you want to get rid of me again, I still love you
girls (on certain days when you pay me hahajust kidding). Chandi, my rooms and Diva #2, 1 can't believe
were almost seniors! Next year's going to be so much fun so get amped for hamster noises, quotables,
and lots of PINK. On a final note, I hope everyone enjoys the Student Life section as much as I do.

FIRST OFF; I want to thank Myra and Katie for being such patient, talented, and wonderful edi-
tors. \buVe taught me so many things this year and I really appreciate your kindness always. You
guys are awesome and the book is amazing! Myra, I wish you the best of luck in the future as you
graduate from BC and move on to the next chapter of your life. \bu and your talents will be missed
dearly by the whole staff. Katie, I'm looking forward to working with you more in the years to come!
And of course, I need to thank my co-editor for clubs and organizations, Lindsey. \bu've saved our
butts so many times, coming to the rescue by putting in those extra hours. Couldn't have done any of
this without you! Sending out those emails to the clubs and hounding them for pictures was no easy
task... It was a lot of work but it was all worth it and now we're finally done! Our section looks awesome.
To everyone else on the staff, it was great working with you on this book. See you all next year!

Lindsey Hampshire
IT'S HARD TO believe that another year has gone by so quickly! Myra and Katie, thank you for
giving me the opportunity to be an editor on this year's staff. I couldn't have asked for a better first
year or better people to chat with about pretty much every TV show under the sun. Catherine, you
were an amazing co-editor and I had a great time working with you on Orgs. When we first started.
I didn't realize how difficult putting together this section would be, especially with such a fantas-
tic computer. So thank you for the endless e-mails trying to hunt down club photos and descrip-
tions (and for putting up with my sometimes frantic e-mails when deadlines seemed to pop up out
of nowhere..). Many thanks to Natalie, Matt, and the Business Staff. It was so nice to be able to
come into the office and not have to look at spreads. I hope everyone enjoys this book as much as
we have enjoyed putting it together. Also, to Liz and the wonderful girls of 305. My life wouldn't be
complete without living under Liz's bed, the sudden thuds against the wall, and the never-ending
laughter. My Ohio loves, to the brick wall at the end of the universe and back (and don't tell me
there's no such thing). B.B.Q., you are simply the best. And last, but not least, to my amazing family.
Mom and Dad, for everything. Words can't express how grateful I am for everything you've given me.

WHILE I WAS nervous at first, my first year on the Sub Turri staff was such a fun experience. However,
my job as an editor would not have been as great without certain people and I owe many people my
thanks. First, I want to thank Myra and Katie for welcoming me into the staff, going above and beyond
to help me. and listening to me complain about whatever annoyance I was dealing with in my life that
day. You guys were fantastic editors in chief and are basically the coolest people ever. A huge thank you
also goes out to all of the athletes who sent me pictures of their respective sports. The section could not
have been finished without their help and I really appreciate all of their efforts. Despite being abroad
first semester, the fabulous Aubrey Timm really saved the day when she lightened my load when I
needed it most and I am extremely gracious for her flexibility and extra help. Finally, thanks to my family
and roommates whose love and support has helped me through so much and means the world to me.

Andrew Fudge
FIRST OF ALL I would like to thank the editors, Myra and Katie, for accepting me into the editorial
staff for this year. It was a lot of fun working with everybody, and definitely well worth the effort. I
would also like to thank my parents for preparing me for success. They made sure that I was ready
to face any and all difficulties in college, and they encouraged me to take advantage of all the oppor-
tunities that would come my way. Really, if I've accomplished anything, I owe it to them. My sister
deserves some credit as well. Because were so close in age, she is always around to talk to when I
need to get things off my chest, and she was there for me over winter break when all my friends had
gone back to state college, leaving me quite alone for the final two weeks. She's been not just a good
sister but a great friend. Last of all, I pass along my thanks to my very good friends Kevin Kwan and
William Yee, who pretty much taught me everything about yearbook production. We had great times
back in high school on the yearbook staff, and a lot of fun, lasting memories came out of that time.
And of course, Irn looking forward to next year's production of Sub Turri. With another three years
ahead of me, I think I have plenty of time to figure out what makes a good yearbook here at BC.

WHEN I JOINED the Sub Turri staff four years ago, I couldn't imagine how it would feel to be a senior
- and here I am. It has truly been a fantastic experience being a part of Sub Turri all these years, and
truly a stable force throughout my four years at BC. I've made some great friends, expanded my social
network, and learned so much about publishing and design, and of course the importance of deadlines!
This has been my second year working on the Senior Section, and it was great being able to create and
design a section dedicated to my own class. I would really like to thank everyone on the yearbook staff
who worked so hard to make this years book fantastic. First and foremost, man) thanks to Myra and
Katie for putting up with all of our questions, problems, and emails, and for staying upbeat and patient
the whole time. Many thanks also to my co-editor Andrew, who stuck with the Senior Section as a
freshman even after several other editors dropped out, and to our two amazing staff members. Kaitlin
and Natalie, who helped us out tremendously this year. The Senior Section is the biggest section of the
book, and I was lucky to work with such dedicated individuals. I also want to thank all of my friends
at school, including my lovely roommates of Ignacio B33 who have made this year so much fun. To
my friend Jenny, who was with me through high school and BC up until last May, thanks for being
a great friend to me and BC isn't the same without you this year! Most importantly, I need to thank
my amazing family, who have supported and encouraged me in all that I've ever done, and especial ly
my mom, who has been there for me through the best times and the worst - I love you all so much!

FIRST OFF THANKS to the photo staff for all their hard work and covering everything they could.
Without them I would have had to run across campus many more times than I already did. Secondly,
thanks to all the section editors for being patient with us. Even though it usually took awhile, Im pretty
sure we got photos of everything. Myra, thanks for giving me the chance to be Photo Editor this year.
It really made the semester fly by and I enjoyed every minute of it. To my family, thanks for all the
support. Dad, thanks for driving back and forth between Delmarva and Boston. Mom, thanks for bug-
ging me on the phone and instant messenger. Megan, good luck next year, wherever you go. Aunt Meg.
thanks for the ticket to the Penguins game. There was no better way to start off 2007. To my friends,
especially everyone in Vandy 603, thanks for everything this year. You guys keep my life interesting.

TO BEGIN. IT'S been eight years since I first started working on yearbooks. Eight years of late
night designing, photography and endless meetings. But also eight years of lasting memories, per-
sonal growth and creating fulfilling works that have been entirely worth it. This book is dedicated
to those listed below for everything they have given me. To Katie. Can we be more awkward? It's
been amazing working and laughing with you. I'll never listen to the Scissor Sisters, think of scrap
booking, or watch Buffy the same without you. While the Project was disastrous I know this book
will be fabulous and that North Carolina will be amazing. The best of luck with the book next year,
please cc me on all happenings. To the staff, you guys made this book possible and for that I am
entirely grateful for all your hard work. To Katharine, Cara, Beth, Megan and Asia. \bu guys have
become and will always be my family. For supporting me when I never left the yearbook office and
for never leaving my side through all the ups and the downs, I can never thank you enough. I will
always remember our first snow storm, singing to Celine Dion on Marathon Monday, the sophomore
Miss's and the senior Trolls. Amor para siempre. To every BCer I've met and known these last four
years, from Duchesne to Ecuador, Sub Turri to Ghana, Appa and everything else, thank you for
having made my years at the Heights something I will cherish throughout the remainder of my life.
To my LAers, I know that you most of all are glad that this chapter of yearbook has ended and that
just maybe, I can pull myself away from it to gain some semblance of a life. It's been ten years since
the beginning of H-W and I can safely say that you have become a part of my family. To my family.
While it seems as if I haven't been in Santa Monica in ages and I know that the travel bug will take
me far in the future, you will always be my home. And to Matt. What more is there to say? 'Vbu have
simply meant everything to me since we've been together. \bu can watch nine straight hours of
VH1 and infomercials with me past sunrise, you can make me smile until even my own jaws hurt
and you can make me feel like the most important person in the world. I can't wait to spend forever
with you. Je taime toujours. To end. I hope this book, now and in the future, helps you to look back
and remember fondly the life you lived at BC. While it aspires to capture the overarching experi-
ence, it is also highly personal and has afforded me the privileged opportunity of creating the
book I have always dreamed of making and of serving as the narrative force behind these pages.

MAKING THE JUMP from section editor to editor-in-chief was really a daunting task at first,
since I knew yearbook already dominated my life and didn't know how much more it would take
over. However, this year's Sub Turri has been a delight to work on and I am very proud of the fin-
ished product. My biggest thanks must, of course, go to my dear co-editor, Myra. This year has
been quite the adventure (especially our Project), but we managed to pull it all off. Our ridiculously
many hours spent in the office were all worth it, and I don't know what Ihi going to do without
you next year, hopefully I will have some kind of divine creative intervention. I don't think it is
possible to find two more insane people to put together as co-editors, from our common love of
bizarre tv shows to our random taste in music. To all of the section editors, thank you so much for
a terrific job. I know it got pretty stressful whenever deadlines and proofs arrived, but you were
always there to get everything done on time and make life easier for Myra and me. \bu should all
be very proud of the finished product, as it is your hard work that makes it so impressive. The
next few thanks are on behalf of both Myra and myself. To Mer, thank you so much for your guid-
ance and patience with everything. I know we made you crazy, but we would be lost without your
help. To Pete, thanks for all of your great suggestions about duotone and endless support. Sandy,
we are so grateful for your patience and all of your help this year. And Rick, thanks for all of the
laughs and your amazing artistic insight. Apart from yearbook, but just as important is a huge
thank you to my family, ^u are always there to listen no matter how often or what time I call,
and are always able to calm me down and help me get myself reorganized. I really look forward
to knowing that I can call you every Sunday after our meetings and just let everything go. To my
actual roommates, Brittany, Kristina, and Michelle, you girls are amazing. I seriously don't know
what I would do without you. Especially after long days in the yearbook office, nothing is better
to come home to than one of our traditional family dinners. To all of my extra roommates, it is
really nice to know that whenever I come home, there will be somebody there to talk to about
anything and everything, and to all of my other wonderful BC friends, nothing compares to our
inside jokes and general absurdity. It has been an absolute pleasure working on the 2007 edi-
tion of Sub Turri, and I cannot wait to come back next year and make another terrific yearbook!

Article and Photos by: Myra Chai
IN A YEAR that began with students
nationwide, including those at Boston
College, gasping in horror at the newly
implemented changes to Facebook and
the danger they posed to the privacy of its
students, we have learned over the last ten
months especially that privacy is impor-
tant, but that it is important not to harbor
closed-minded sentiments about others.
Racial incidents marred the beginning
of the school year and sparked the first-
ever Unity Rally on campus in an effort to
address growing concerns about the defi-
nition of a true Super fan. Yet in spite of
this, Boston College's McMullen Museum
hosted "Cosmophiliar which exhibited 123
of the finest examples of Islamic art from
the C. L. David Collection in Copenhagen,
Denmark, as well as 'A New KeyT which
explored Belgian art, not generally consid-
ered a center of such works, and revealed
how the history of modern art looks dif-
ferent when viewed from the vantage
point of this "marginal" center. With fifty-
three works from the Simon collection that
have never displayed in North America, the
exhibition included important paintings
by Rene Magritte, James Ensor, and Theo
van Rysselberghe, among others. We as a
Boston College community found other
ways to come together as one. We cheered
on our Eagles in Alumni and in Conte, and
screamed in joy as we beat the Navy in a
thriller ending. We traveled to Ghana to
teach kids how to use computers, to various
sites along the Appalachian region during
Spring Break to build houses, and supported
our own Campus School week after week.
We got through our first week of college
together, struggled through endless weeks
of midterms that seemed to crop up period-
ically throughout the semester, sacrificed
everything for the thesis, until it paid off
at the "Strip Mod" during Finals. We have
opened our minds, but most importantly
we have opened our hearts, and we have
allowed this new family of Boston College
to help us become better human beings.
