Hi, Emory!It’s officially December, which means the end of the semester is nearly here. Before you leave campus for winter break, check out holiday events at Atlanta and Oxford — some even make for perfect study breaks. This week, you’ll also meet a student combining their love of bioethics and literature, enjoy a gift guide from Goizueta Business School that supports local entrepreneurs, discover the latest on emotions in animals and more. Eagles fans don’t have to go all the way to Las Vegas to support the women’s soccer team in the NCAA Final Four tomorrow. Instead, stream the game for free. Plus, keep reading to learn how you could get a scholarship covering 30% of tuition for select Emory graduate programs. We’ll see you next week, Eagles! |
