We asked our students: "What Makes A Mariner"

...And here is what they said: 

So...What defines you? 

Introducing Michaelanne(gelo), Our Newest Student Blogger

• Quintessentially Quirky
• A red-head in denial
• Emphatically Anti-Skin Cancer (or pro-sunscreen, depending on how you want to spin it)
• Curious (and also Collegiate)
• Coffee Aficionado
• Believer in Carpe[ing] Diems
• Student of the Globe (and Money)
• Generally Awesome

The preceding list is but a scanty preview of our witty and well-red student blogger Michaelanne. She's "attempting, as many have before her, to chronicle the curious life of a college student." She's doing a pretty darn good job.


A little about her: she's from Arizona, though she moved to California in high school. I don't blame her, because she has ruddy hair and most likely the sun-tolerance of a (non-glittering-type) vampire. She's petite, smart as a whip, and has a dry and understated sense of humor that often evokes delayed laughter when one finally catches up to the joke. 


Her blog, The Curious Collegiate, is about her experience here at Marymount, and is definitely worth a read. Check it out here.

Dude, I Was At Testing Before It Was Cool...

Wayfarer Sunglasses, NBA Jam, Robert Downey Jr.—some things are so awesome that they simply must make a comeback. Take our testing and registration days: life a thief in the night they came and went. Those that caught the testing train were happy, secure, and ready to rock higher ed like a sampled techno beat. However, far too many were left untested, unregistered, and completely at the mercy of capricious "auto-scheduling."
