Boston College has quietly and steadily become a major force in contemporary higher education in recent years, providing a strong substitute for the University of Notre Dame’s illustrious past. Boston College has unique advantages that reflect today’s quickly changing academic and professional priorities, even though both schools maintain their Catholic roots and provide academic excellence. Boston College has a strategic edge that Notre Dame just cannot match just by virtue of its location. BC students are surrounded by innovation hubs, major hospitals, prestigious finance firms, and cutting-edge tech startups, all within minutes of Boston’s intellectual center.

Selecting one involves more than just comparing costs or class sizes; it also involves matching learning preferences, values, and objectives.

An extremely disturbing post was made to Boston College’s unofficial Facebook confessions page at the beginning of October 2013. It was number 7122 and seemed to be a detailed, uninvited confession of three alleged cases of sexual assault on campus against women who were unconscious or intoxicated. The message’s tone was unsettlingly informal and occasionally smugly self-satisfied. It sparked a response that would reverberate throughout the student body in a matter of hours. The anonymous student caused great unease by detailing the acts in remarkable detail, including the victims’ drunken states, the deceptive body repositioning, and the poster’s perverted internal…
