We are pleased to bring you another piece from The Blue and White’s December issue. You can, of course, pick up a copy on a newsstand nearby–do it for nostalgia’s sake! Try something new and navigate the sidewalk while reading a literary magazine instead of your latest text.

Bwog’s career specialist, Zachary Hendrickson, thinks about the future and asks himself why he didn’t just save money and go to state school. As Bwog looks out at a job market that looks at best like a Surrealist nightmare painted by the great Salvador Dali and at worst like an exact replica of Dante’s Inferno […]
