Back in the good ÔolÉ

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am safe at
home in Colorado, readjusting to all the charming
aspects of American life like prescription drug
commercials (Òyou are probably depressed, make your
doctor give you Zoloft!Ó)  and disposable paper
products galore.  Of course, there are the good
things, too, like swing dancing (thanks David!) and
bagels.  Not to mention all you lovely people I
havenÕt seen for so long.

I spent all of July living in Cochabamba living with
my host family and conducting interviews for my senior
thesis.  I decided to write about the system of
democracy in the University.  Fellow students, imagine
voting for your department heads, along with the other
professors.  How would this shape your ideas on
democracy and political participation?  ThatÕs what
IÕm trying to find out.

I now begin the task of catching up with all my
neglected correspondence.   I will be in Colorado
until August 27, when I plan on driving back out East
with Kasia the Wonder Cellist.

Looking forward to catching up with everyone,

Evie
