Welcome Back!

I am once again getting back into the swing of things at BC. It has been a wonderful three weeks and with all the football games, classes, and club kick-off meetings, I've never felt more at home.

The past week has been busy for me in terms of meetings for study abroad, internships, and off-campus housing. BC has done a fantastic job with coordinating events that are informative and promote networking. Yesterday's 150-credit-hour/Big 4 Information Session was very helpful for accounting majors like me. Professor Billy Soo, chairperson of the Accounting department, gave us some helpful tips for planning our 150 credits and we had a panel of recruiters from the Big 4 firms fielding questions regarding leadership programs, internships, and full-time positions. Resources are abundant here at BC, which is a huge relief for complicated majors like accounting.

On another non-academic note, last weekend was the Fall Concert featuring Kid Cudi/LMFAO! It was such an amazing time and everyone I talked to loved the performances. As a member of the Event Management team of UGBC (Undergraduate Government of Boston College), I helped set up the stage and even got to meet Kid Cudi and LMFAO!

With Parent's Week starting tomorrow and the Holy War game (BC vs. Notre Dame) next week, the spirit of BC never ceases. Another lively week awaits!

Any questions, comments, suggestions, fun stories in the meantime? Feel free to email me at fangda@bc.edu!
