Boston College Tour Guide
My name is Chris Fiol, and I am a Junior at BC studying Math, Economics, and Finance. Here on campus, I am a part of multiple finance clubs, intramural sports, volunteer societies, and culture clubs. When I was deciding on colleges, many individuals helped me and I want to help you all make an informed decision!

Describe your college experience
I went to a fairly large public school with an open campus, so my transition was fairly simple. The biggest adjustment by far is time management.
Tip for future students
My tip would be to always try new things at least once to see if you like them. It might be a waste of an hour or it might be the best hour you have ever had.
Favorite class
Economics of the Mininum Wage because we dove deep into whether the US can actually increase the minimum wage and to what level
Career goals
I am hoping to have a job in Finance
Ideal way to spend a free night
My ideal way to spend a free night would be to go to a Red Sox game and then go into Boston afterwards
High school or secondary school
Ridgewood High School
Favorite spot on campus
Bapst Library because it feels like you are at Hogwarts
Meeting point
In front of Saint Ignatius of Loyola Catholic Church on the Boston College campus
