Ok, I feel really bad about not posting lately. I had all these great intentions of posting while I was traveling, and as I stated, it didn't quite turn out that way. For anyone who doesn't know, doing international recruitment is just a blur--lots of airports, buses, etc. But it's also lots of fun. I get to see great students who can often be very, very smart and very well-prepared. So after Latin America, I was back for a few days and then off to Canada. As always, Toronto and Ottawa are great places to be. Then I was back for a few days, and in Mexico for a spell.
Unlike Megan, I have not returned to a very large stack of applications. Some, but most international students seem to work on a little different timeline, that's a bit later. I'm hoping that all of my internationals out there are--or become!--aware that our scholarship deadlines are earlier than they have been in the past. Hopefully, this will be a good year!
I was watching the news last night and they announced yesterday that a Fogo de Chao, a swanky Brazilian barbecue place is opening in Indianapolis. In case you have never been to one, check out the details of how one of these places works at http://www.fogodechao.com/dining.htm. Every time we're in Brazil, we go to one of these types of places and just gorge ourselves on cuts of meat. Yum.
So anyway, from here on out, I'm going to use this blog to throw stuff out there--some of it relevant and interesting about BU, some it random and useless. Stay tuned....
