The Inside Dirt on Life At Olin

The inside dirt on life at Olin College It feels like I just got back from winter break, right when I was adjusting to life without Olin again. And as usual, things have become more hectic than I believed possible. Winter break was a month of bliss. No obligations . No group meetings. Just chilling with high school friends and waking up at one every day. Now I've returned to Olin and things are swinging into high gear again. This semester, schoolwork has really ramped up. For the first time, I'm learning physics and math in an entirely studio based environment. It's fascinating because I've never experienced learning like this before- class time has literally no lectures, we have open studio time instead and professors intervene and help as needed. Another cool and new thing- I'm starting research this semester! Olin is filled to the brim with undergraduate research opportunities, an upside to the fact that we only do undergrad education here. In fact, some labs here always need and welcome more students. I'm going to be working on the vision system for  a quadcopter alongside two very cool Oliners in Olin's intelligent vehicles lab! But enough about me. Chances are, dear reader, that you are a candidate anticipating Candidates weekend.
