When my friend Brittany Madni, co-president of Boston College R.E.A.C.T.

Having written a previous article on BC R.E.A.C.T, I was elated that one of the foremost voices of this issue would be coming to the Heights.

Sandra Dickson, a junior in the Connell School of Nursing, loves to read. She is also afraid of heights and absolutely loves shopping with her roommates. In her down time you’ll find her listening to slow, soothing R&B, or catching up on sleep. But most likely, she’ll be out having a conversation.
“I loooove, I love, I love, love to read. I...

We see them every day: celebrities looking pixel perfect on the covers of magazines like Vogue, Glamour, and Marie Claire. We aspire to have their perfectly chiseled bodies, their porcelain complexions, and their striking eyes.
When looking at a Lancôme advertisement featuring the classic Julia Roberts, however, Rachel Gregorio couldn’t take her eyes away but not out of...

Everyone knows who she is. I mean, I must have heard her name around campus at least 20 times this weekend. Her reputation has been around for a while, too. Love her or hate it, as a BC student you are most likely bound to run into her at some point. Some flock to her while others have had bad experiences with her and avoid her at all costs. If you haven’t yet...
