Study Abroad season is here!

Yes you heard it here first.  Classes may just be getting underway, but there's a chill in the air and that can only mean one thing . . . Study Abroad season is right around the corner.  If you are considering going abroad in the spring, let me make that decision for you: DO IT!  My time spent living and traveling abroad have been some of the best experiences of my life.   I studied for a semester in Sydney, Australia, lived on the beach, did some surfing, and met some amazing people.  I traveled up and down the east coast of Australia and even made it to Thailand on my spring break.  You may not get an opportunity to live in another country with almost no responsibility (besides a few classes) ever again.  Don't miss out!

Back to Collegeboxes . . . we are finalizing preparation for the study abroad shipping and storage service and will be posting updated information on the website soon.  We'll pick your stuff up at the end of this semester and deliver it back to you when you arrive on campus again next fall. Above the text is a picture from Laos that I took on a recent trip through Southeast Asia.

Inside the Box: Part Deux

Beloved readers,

We have reached the end of an era here at Collegeboxes. It is with great sadness that I announce the departure of blogger and boxer extraordinaire Joshua Kowitt. A former CEO, Josh helped expand the company and gain national recognition. He helped a generation of college students store their boxes effortlessly and efficiently. For that he should be commended. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors. If you're interested in what he's doing now, you can check out his web page here. Moving on . . .

My name is Matt Epstein and I will entertain your blogging needs as we move into the storage season. I was a campus manager at Tufts for the past 3 years and recently graduated in May. I joined the Collegeboxes team full time in August as Campus Marketing Coordinator. Blogging on Inside the Box I will keep our loyal customers updated with important info about the company. As a recent college graduate myself, I will also be blogging about any and all college-related material. Anything is fair game! Feel free to contact me at matte@collegeboxes.com with suggestions.
