Feb 17, 2012 • In New York City, whether on the newspaper clippings, television, or in conversation, it’s difficult to not encounter Jeremy Lin. The California native helped elevate the New York Knicks to above the .500 mark (meaning more wins than losses), scoring the city back-to-back wins since the Giants’ Superbowl victory. Asking “Who’s Jeremy Lin?” invites swift...

Feb 9, 2012 • So I’ve experienced my first three weeks as an upper junior at Nyack College. From a personal standpoint, college is definitely easier: I’ve improved on budgeting my time, I participate in more student life activities, and my agenda in the classroom is to extract as much knowledge from the professor as possible. Networking is great...

Project Experience is a guided...

This week my partner and I were on the Labor & Delivery Unit. When the day started, little did we know what kind of day we were going to have! We were super excited of the possibility to see a live birth. However, once we got there, we found out that a mother on the...

Jan 30, 2012 • Don’t just ask what Nyack College can do for you, ask what you can do at Nyack College. That’s the idea behind the Club Expo, an event hosted at the college campuses every semester toward the beginning of the year. Students are invited to take a look at the various clubs and consider becoming...
So, I’ve guided you through this walk in which I talk about looking for jobs post-grad and each day seems harder. I’m learning that in these moments, this is when I need to trust God most. One of my favorite devotional books is Dialogues with Silence by Thomas Merton. There are great prayers in this...

Jan 23, 2012 • A few days ago I received mail in a glossy envelope, the type specifically made to prevent outsiders from knowing its contents. As usual with suspicious packaging, I held my breath as I opened the envelope to prevent the possibility of anthrax poisoning. Inside, I discovered something just as potentially lethal: An invitation to apply...
I’m excited about being back to school. The last couple weeks have been good. I got to go away for a week for New Years’. I went to Kansas City, MO for the International House of Prayer’s yearly young adult conference called OneThing. It was a real good refreshing time to see old friends and...
