StudyBlue

StudyBlue is the new app made for students that can upload class materials, create electronic flash cards, and take quizzes. Students can save their materials to their icloud so they can share with others when needed. Bridgewater State is registered already with this app and it is available for iPhone and Android users.

Job & Internship Fair

Get your resumes ready. The time has come in the semester where BSU will host their Job and Internship Fair. It will be held  Wednesday, April 2 from 1-3:30 p.m. in the RCC Ballroom. More than 60 employers will be in attendance where career fields include accounting, aviation, finance/banking, human/social services, communications, technology, sales, and many more. This fair is open to the public.

 

Puffy Vests

As the weather starts to warm up, student wardrobes begin to change. As it is not warm enough to walk around with tanks and shorts yet, students want the next best thing. Puffy vests are making a comeback as we transition seasons. Not only is it a winter style, it is also a spring accessory that can look just as great. Layering up with flannels and long sleeves will keep you warm enough with a vest but not feel like you’re in a sauna.

Book Review: “Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt”

This is a book about death.
