As Matt indicated a few months ago, I am about to set off on an adventure through Eastern Europe. While my main focus will be minority politics and the media, when you look at long-simmering ethnic struggles in the region, education almost always tops the list of sectors affected. In other words, while I will be living an ocean away, higher ed and our fair Cornell will never be too far from my daily concerns. Why, is it ever? I've been working as a higher education reporter for over a year and a half, and my contributions to MetaEzra have suffered as a result. Will this trip be the final blow? Let's put it this way: If Cornell starts thinking about opening a campus in Bucharest, you, our loyal readers, will be the first to know. I'll try to check in from time to time, especially if I can take pictures of myself wearing Big Red paraphernalia in exotic places.
