"So what motivated you to start the Inside Admission podcast?"

I've been asked this question more than a few times the past couple weeks by friends and colleagues and this clip of my conversation with @jselingo (out Jan. 17) speaks to that motivation.

Capping off a fun family weekend, participating in the @PTOatPaxtonMA #TrunkorTreat!

I can’t explain how much I appreciate our PTO’s inclusive approach, adoption, & efforts to raise awareness of the #TealPumpkinProject & #foodallergies!

Lucky to be a part of this community!

A special night with my daughters at their first ever @NERevolution game!

Thanks for the tickets, @MAYouthSoccer!

I'll miss connecting with my admissions and counseling friends at #NACAC23 in Baltimore this week

That said, I'm very excited to be joining @GrownandFlown’s college admissions community tonight at 8pm representing the Inside Admission Podcast.

Such a clear night… incredible (even with some light pollution and the campfire)

[Andrew B. Palumbo @InsideAdmission]

Capped off a productive day teaching myself some basic astrophotography.

-I only saw 3 meteors in 2 hrs.

-I managed to capture none of them.

I’ll be the first to admit my pictures are amateurish. But it’s fun to try new things without the fear of failure.

@AnnaIvey Actually earbuds in the car works really well.

Especially on “autopilot” (commute/routine trips to grocery store/mindless stretches of highway).

But trying to stream to my car’s speakers is probably the worst audiobook experience for me. (Fiction even worse than non-fiction).

Today is my final day of employment at WPI.

Tomorrow I will be a “free agent” & unemployed for the 1st time since 2006.

I'll miss my team at WPI but I'm excited to seek out an exciting opportunity for the next chapter in my career.
Know an exciting opportunity? Let me know!

“What SFFA has asked the Supreme Court to do, is rule that Grutter v. Bollinger was wrong from the day it was decided, and wipe out 45 years of precedent.” -@ArtColemanDC

Appreciate @AICUM inviting Art to MA to discuss the pending Supreme Court SFFA decisions.

Honestly this is a hard piece to read.

I have seen so many talented friends & colleagues leave the field for their health & wellness, alone. Pile on the other reasons & it’s a talent crisis.

Higher ed is unable to replenish these roles with the speed & expertise necessary.

Celebrated Z’s 7th Birthday rocking out to @itsjojosiwa and enjoying her mom’s world famous cupcakes!

(Where the heck did the time go???)

[Andrew B. Palumbo @InsideAdmission]

What a fun day!

@Unionmhockey 4 - @UNHMHOCKEY 3

It’s safe to say we have some more #hockey fans in the family now.

(Probably didn’t hurt @UnionCollege’s chances with recruiting three incredible young people over the next 6-12 years, either.😂)

[Andrew B. Palumbo @InsideAdmission]

Let’s Go @Unionmhockey! 🏒

Back at my alma mater with my two oldest girls and my nephew for their 1st @Union hockey game!
