Gwen's Picks
Gwen never stops studying because it never feels like work. Just getting into podcasts on her iPod Touch, she loves "How I Built This" which profiles entrepreneurs and innovators. She's also a fan of "Revisionist History" by Malcolm Gladwell. 2. COMPOSITION NOTEBOOK | STAPLES There's just something about buying composition books in September. Gwen finds herself picking up a few of these classic books each year. 3. CUSTOM BOOK COVERS | ARTFUL LIBRARY Back in her school days, Gwen loved wrapping her textbooks each semester. These are a fun grown-up take on the book cover. They can also be customized to add a personal touch to your library. Societe Bic produced these limited edition pens to commemorate its 60th anniversary. Gwen and Lindsey love them so much, Gwen stocked up during a visit to Tokyo. Forever true to her school, Gwen always stops by the Cornell store to pick-up supplies when she's in Ithaca.
