Welcome back, BizComm! Here's a nice warm poem to help you remember the snow days!
Snow Day, by Billy Collins
Today we woke up to a revolution of snow,
its white flag waving over everything,
the landscape vanished,
not a single mouse to punctuate the blankness,
and beyond these windows
the government buildings smothered,
schools and libraries buried, the post office lost
under the noiseless drift,
the paths of trains softly blocked,

BizComm alum Kayla Wilson (in the center of the photo during her internship at the University of Maryland School of Law) writes to us: "I wanted to let you know that I just finished my first semester at Michigan State University College of Law. It was a very challenging semester for me and it has been interesting to experience life outside of Maryland on a Big Ten campus. I was able to attend a football game because a friend of mine won tickets, which was exciting. I am still adjusting to the weather (it snows just about every other day here), looking for legal internships, and am doing my best to learn as much as I can about the law. Give my best to everyone!"
And we also have heard from BizComm alum Susana Cintron, shown in the photo during her internship at MGH Advertising: "I wanted to send you a quick email to stay connected and to tell you a little bit about my new adventure in Washington, D.C. I’m working at one of the world’s largest bar associations (the American Association for Justice) as their Social Media Manager, the first one in the communication department. I got the job thanks to every single bit of experience I gained throughout my four years at Stevenson and for that I will never stop being thankful."
