Without Election Central, I know that a lot of you were starved for political news this summer. If it makes you feel any better, you didn't miss a whole lot. There was a lot of talk about celebrity, homes, Germans, arugula, Hawaii, and Paris Hilton. It was as serious as it sounds.

Three years after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans, Mother Nature pulled another fast one on the Gulf Coast - 150 mph fast. Gustav, the second major hurricane of the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season, formed as a tropical depression on the morning of Aug. 25 off the coast of Haiti. Rapidly strengthening into a tropical storm that afternoon, Gustav survived a brief period of disorganization to develop a well-defined eye wall that same night. In the early hours of Aug. 26, multiple hurricane-hunter aircrafts confirmed that, with winds topping 90 mph, Gustav had become a full-fledged hurricane.

When Brown welcomed the majority of the class of 2012 for Orientation, nearly an eighth of the class had arrived four days before to participate in the Third World Transition Program.

This is an exquisite day.
A time that is truly momentous. For almost all of us, it marks receipt of the last degree we will ever earn. It marks the final transition of the mind from preparation to application. It marks a move away from learning about the possible and toward creating it.
