Summer 2002 Encore...

[selah_1977]

...because One Good Time Deserves A Sequel.

I am in the process of applying to the National Endowment for the 
Humanities Summer Seminars.  There are several dozen of these, 
however, I am applying to two.

One is in Nottingham.  My second choice of program, because it's 
about the Industrial Revolution.

The other is about post-colonialism, and it's in...

...cental London.

Six weeks again--last week of June until the first week of August.

I really ought to stay my butt here and teach summer school... but 
I'm such a wuss.  I've become a positive Anglophile and I miss you 
guys!

Instead of myself and my college paying my way through Oxford ($7000 
that I'll be paying back over the next 10 years), this particular 
program, if accepted, would pay a very modest stipend... imagine 
that, paying teachers to go to London!  Gotta love America, eh?

I am sending it to you because you guys know London better than I do.

What do you think?  Should I go for it?  Suggestions?  Caveats?
