nicole's comment about taking senior sem together reminded me of my first day of college. anthropology 101 with with the esteemed prof./dr. paul grebinger (of the aforementioned sen sem.) who loved to tell tales about the time he spent in bogeta, researching the colombian drug trade and it's impact on the indigenous culture. so the first day (and paul can vouch for this, he was sitting in front of me) grebinger is telling us about one of his best friends mistfortune in colombia and blah blah and he turns very serious and says "man... you know, he really.. yeah he really got deaded." and we're not talking hippie professors who don't wash their hair and wear sandals here, we're talking about
this guy. that's my first academic memory of college. go tigers!
