Barry O'Neil

      My name is Barry O’Neil. I am nine-teen year old freshman here at Nichols College. I was born and raised on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, more specifically Falmouth. Growing up on Cape Cod I learned to love the ocean and became very comfortable on it. My family owns a boat and I spend as much time during the summer as I can on it. Taking my boat to Martha’s Vineyard and spending the day there with friends is my favorite thing to do during the summer. I also like to golf and play hockey. Hockey has been a lifelong passion of mine and is why I attended Nichols, along with of course the education that comes with it. I am a criminal justice major and hope when I graduate to find a job in law enforcement that is exciting and pays well.

        Taking ITM will be a good way of getting more familiar with programs on the computer and hopefully will make me a more versatile student when working on group projects and projects on my own. There are so many different things one can do on a computer and hopefully ITM will teach me how to use the important ones.

        The blog I chose is about the Boston Bruins because hockey is my biggest interest and I am excited that the NHL lockout is over. The blog talks about all of the recent events that the Bruins have taken part in. It talks about each game in detail and gives short articles on them as well. This Bruins Blog is credible because it is written by the writers of the Boston Globe, a major news company that covers everything in the Boston area.
