Success Hotline

http://gilbertsuccesshotline.blogspot.com/

Check out this blog from one of my former professors, Dr. Rob Gilbert. I took him 2 spring's ago and loved, loved, loved his Social Problems in Sports class and honestly you couldn't find a better teacher with amazing abilities to enlighten your day in the most powerful of ways.

I remebered he would tell the class about his blog and I would go on it frequently and check out his new messages. He [usually] posts everyday and even has a telephone hotline to hear his encouraging words. Although he does have his flaws, (he's a RedSox fan--yuck!) he's honestly one of the best professors and friends you could have. and he writes a MEAN letter of recommendation, according to my friend.

His class stories are the shittttt, he does the illest of magic tricks, and shows the most moving and inspirational short movies in class. And he's an overall cool guy to be around and have lecture you about how it took him yearssss to graduate from UMass (which i visited while in Boston) and how he graduated with a 1.62 GPA (yeah, 1.62--OD) sounds impossible now but, he went through his hardships and now he has a Ph.D. so ...he's chillen.

Here's a little exerpt of what you'd find on his blog:

MESSAGE #761: ADVICE FROM MARK TWAIN

“Keep away
from people
who try to
belittle
your ambitions.
Small people
always do that,
but the really great people
make you feel
that you, too,
can be great.”


Shouts to Dr. G
