If you have not checked out the Babson Bucket List , please do. It is a great way to evaluate whether you qualify to call yourself a Babsonite or Babsonian or Babson Beaver? The bucket list was made by SGA with a lot of student input and I have evaluated some of my favorite and least favorite things on the bucket list.

Two things I enjoyed doing:

#8. Run or attend a Bidwell Thursday Night Series

One of my favorite memories from freshman year is the Thursday Night Event that was hosted by BASO (Babson African Students Organization) where members of the Babson community assembled Ebola Protection Gear to be sent to Liberia. There were so many people who stopped by in the campus center from their Thursday night adventures to help assemble kits. I had a serious #ThisismyBabson moment because I had never seen solidarity and unity on such a grand scale.

#6. Trim sit for more than 2 hours

Trim sitting is a great way to make new friends. I have made some of my closest friends through two and a half hour long discussions on politics or the future of economics. Trim was the place where I talked to the entire hockey team in my first year because I spent hours in the dining hall hopping from table to table. I even bonded with some exchange students last year while I trim sat for almost four hours during finals weekend. #TeamProcrastination. The lifelong benefits of trim sitting outweigh the detrimental short-term costs.

Two things I should do:

#1. Start your own business

This is one of those things that I wish I had the confidence to do. Starting my own business means being my own boss and reaping the benefits of my own hard work. Choosing my own team for the most part and possibly making a positive return. However; it means financial insecurity, stress, finding a feasible idea and someone to fund it. It also means a lot of explaining to my parents. I simply do not have the confidence nor the passion to deal with all cons of starting a business.

#41. Visit Roger Babson’s Grave

Roger Babson is a great quirky individual who is remembered for predicting the 1929 financial crisis and founding Babson College. I have heard that his grave is located somewhere on campus next to his wife’s and his mistress’s. I have not found the exact location yet and maybe, I have walked past his grave without even realizing it. Regardless, I have to set my mind on it and visit his grave.

Two things I am least likely to do:

#21. Enjoy world class cooking at Babson Food day

I love multicultural things and I love food but Babson Food day is one of those events that will go down in history as a could have been, should have been, would have been kind of event. I missed Babson Food day the first time because I was that first year student who never knew what was going on. In my second year, I discovered that you have to walk all the way to Pepsico (the gym) to get food and I had a few minutes in between classes so I did not go. Unfortunately, Babson Food day happens once in the fall. If I study abroad in the Fall and then have a conflicting commitment in my senior year, there is no way I will ever make it to a Babson Food day.

#28. Go to Spring Concert

I might graduate without this pivotal college experience. Everyone loves Spring Concert because famous people come to your school and you pay an affordable price to see them. Sounds like a good deal, right? Unfortunately, I am not a huge fan of mainstream music therefore as my Economics professors’ say, you vote with your dollar in the free market. I guess my unwillingness to pay for this is a reflection of my demand. However; people's tastes and preferences change so maybe, just maybe, I might go to Spring Concert but that is highly unlikely.
